Apparently #6 is NOT good enough for 50 Cent. After he came in at a respectable sixth place in MTV News' compendium of 2008 Hottest MCs In the Game back in May 2008, he totally pulled a Kanye West and got all crybabypants during a 105.1 interview with DJ Clue. (The interview appears to be from or around July 2008.) AND he called Sway a couple not-nice things, including, um, "a burger." (This, after Sway practically risked his life riding in 50's bulletproof Jeep!) NOT cool, brah!
Sorry, but it's not like 50 Cent got trumped by Soulja Boy! 50 was lucky to even get on that list after dropping an album that even he referred to as a dud. Righteous Kill came and went faster than Pam Anderson's average marriage, and talk about biting the hand that feeds you: 50 Cent ripped on MTV right BEFORE both entities premiered 50 Cent: The Money and the Power. (Granted, that show was, um, not renewed.) Next thing you know, dude's gonna be dropping deuces in your Vitamin Water.
50's Before I Self Destruct is one of the most widely anticipated albums of 2009 (though lots of anti-50 folk and former fans are looking forward to simply seeing if the album actually self destructs and turns 50 into the next Eminem -- unless of course Em can resurrect himself from hip-hop's boneyard). But if it doesn't live up to its/ 50's own hype, we may have more Kanye-level ranting to look forward to from 50 Cent. Strike up that Caps Locks button, buddy.
