Their beef so far has been mostly entertaining with 50 Cent putting out his “Saturday Cartoon’s” (which I have to admit are very, very hilarious and are done in a rather crude way) and “Pimpin’ Curly” videos mocking pimp culture, people with prison sentences, people 50 Cent doesn’t like, and of course, Rick Ross himself and mostly this beef has mostly involved an altercation over 50’s “Baby Mamma”. Not I don’t get this because they might of had a prior sexual relationship or it might be for some other reason which I can’t completely explain or something but it’s very frequent in this beef, as many of their freestyles constantly reference her in some way, including Mafia Music. I don’t know if this is relevant to the post or whatnot but he also put DJ Khaled’s mother into the rap beef (since he’s affiliated to Rick Ross and whatnot) and then released a video showing where he lives, where he works while reading some sort of deadly and scary poem about what a physic told him.

Every person who is watching the beef is saying that 50 Cent is ripping apart his life piece by piece as he promised, and he is directly eating him up. I kind of see why Rick Ross is such an easy target, mostly because he lied about being a drug dealer and is a revealed law enforcement officer. If I were coming up as an up-and-coming rapper, I wouldn’t lie about who I am just to get people to buy my records or give me a bit of legitimate street credibility, and I wouldn’t try to cover up the fact that I was in law enforcement. Mostly because if I wanted to get in a business or reach the top, I wouldn’t lie about who I am, I’d probably be 100% honest because if they found out that you were not who they say you are, then they’d probably rip you apart and your career would be over in an instant or you’d lose much of your street credibility, I also probably wouldn’t be in Law Enforcement before suddenly changing directions because it would possibly result in their image being misrepresented or tarnished

What’s odd is that 50 Cent is putting out a lot of online videos instead of freestyles, mostly he thinks that the videos between Soulja Boy Tell’Em and Bow Wow are the future of rap beefs in which the freestyle will be completely eliminated. Now I don’t particularly agree with him because mostly diss songs and battle raps will always be a part of hip-hop and if we were to take away one element of hip-hop, then it wouldn’t exactly be hip-hop now would it? I think that 50 Cent is winning this battle because he knows that Rick Ross is trying to present himself as something else and he’s unloading a lot of dirt on Rick Ross and making him look entirely stupid. Both of them are saying some pretty ridiculous things but Rick Ross is saying some stupid things that “Deeper then Rap” will sell more then “Get Rich and Die Tryin’”, that he would bribe G-Unit into joining him and that he would steal his fans sorely by his lyricism only. I find that kind of blasmephous because your rapping skills does not overshadow his past job or the fact that he lied.

Okay, most of you people do not think that this is relevant but I have something to say about DJ Khaled. Mostly I have some problem with him, I think that his music and collaborations are great but the problem is that he’s being considered an artist in the same way that he’s creating art. Personally I think he’s lowering the bar for who should be considered artists, it kind of hampers the people who are serious about making or producing music. He barely produces any songs on any of his albums and his whatever it is only consists of shouts with various catchphrases such as “We the Best” shouted in a loud voice and “Listennn…” said in a way that sounds oddly British, the fact that his shouting is considered to be equivalent to a rap or singing is somewhat appalling. What’s worse is that he’s avoiding rap beefs which kind of makes him a coward, how can he be truly regarded as a rap star if he’s just avoiding every beef that he encounters. He’s even president of Def Jam South and he doesn’t even have a gold album,  it won’t be long after he gets replaced or he starts ruining Ludacris or Young Jeezy?

I’m not trying to start a beef with either 50 Cent or Rick Ross and I’m not trying to side with either one of them. I personally think that they’re both great artists and they have their respective share of hits and I anticipate buying both of their albums whenever they come out. I just wanted to give my opinion of the beef and there’s nothing wrong with that right? Seriously, I mostly think that Rick Ross is making some sort of a fool of himself because his career might be at an end and he needs to probably stall it as long as possible and 50 Cent with his hilarious cartoons and his parody on pimp culture is apparently winning this beef based on the number of people who root for him but still… I’m not for anyone of them nor do I particularly care much about this beef, just thought that I would clarify that. But whenever there is a major rap beef, you’ll be sure that there will be people to give their opinions and root for their favorite rapper to beat that other rapper senseless.
