Right off the bat, 50 acknowledges his friend and mentor Eminem's massive success with Relapse (having been certified platinum a few weeks ago), saying that he would not be here without Em's aid. However, he quickly confirmed his supremacy over Wayne.
“What does that mean that you sold that?” he says, referencing last year's Tha Carter III which sold over a million copies in it's first week. “So you gonna forget that I sold 10 million albums twice -12 million first album, 10 million next one. So what does that one million mean?“
Fif says his fans are "quick to forget his history" when it comes to the new kid on the block. "What you’re talking about is who is a buzz,” he explained. “A buzz is a song. So the next song that I release can turn me back into what you feel like is the hottest thing out here. So I mean if I’m showing you full capability of it than what makes you doubt that.”
50, real name Curtis Jackson, went on to congratulate Jay-Z on his consistency and relevance throughout the years.
“There’s a respect that is well deserved on Jay-Z’s part because he’s had that cloud come over him and constantly worked his way through it, having so many projects come out and be successful and maintain meaning,” he said. “There’s a significance in it. Because they go, after countless amounts of hit records, they go ‘You think you can go out and do it again’. Ask me if I think he can do it again, ‘hell yeah,’ cause he did it how many times in front of us. What makes you think he can’t do it again.”
50 is currently working on his heavily-anticipated fourth LP, Before I Self Destruct and numerous G-Unit mixtapes - as well as his own; Forever King.
A 20-year-old Florida man was arrested on June 22nd for misusing the 911 Emergency Hotline.
According to First Coast News, Michael Kruse of Jacksonville initially called 911 because he felt sick on June 21st.
Kruse reportedly told the operator he had been smoking marijuana and was feeling ill.
When the operator asked Kruse if he would like a deputy take him to jail, Kruse seemed confused and asked "why?" to which the operator replied, "You just told me on a taped line you just got done smoking marijuana."
Sgt. Chuck Mulligan, spokesman with the St. Johns County Sheriff's Office, said deputies located Kruse, took him to a family member, and gave him a stern lecture about 911.
Hours later on June 22nd, Kruse called 911 again. This time he was driving on I-95. He told the dispatcher he wanted a police escort to see the rapper, Lil Wayne, in concert in Miami.
Dispatch: "You want a police escort to take you to Miami?"
Caller: "Or, you have a helicopter?"
Dispatch: "We don't just send helicopters up for rappers."
Caller: "Well, I'm driving there right now. I just wanted the fastest way to get there. I didn't want to get pulled over on the highway."
The dispatcher had Kruse pull off the interstate at the State Road 207 exit. There, deputies met Kruse and arrested him for mis-use of 911.
