50 Cent Says He Doesn’t Respect Rick Ross’ Career
50 Cent and Rick Ross‘ decade-long feud continues to make headlines, with the two rappers last exchanging words back in August. Now, 50 is once again taking shots at Ross in a new interview with Real 92.3 Los Angeles.
On Monday (Sept. 16), 50 stopped by Los Angeles radio station Real 92.3 for an interview with Bootleg Kev and DJ Hed when the topic of Ross came up. Kev referenced a comment 50 had made back in August questioning Ross’ relevancy, which led to some more jabs from the G-Unit rapper.
50 said that [[Meek Mill]’s recent focus on criminal justice reform feels “ironic” considering the rapper made his career while signed to Ross, who previously worked as a corrections officer.
“I know you just said something about Ross not being relevant enough to do music with,” Kev began. “Well he just dropped an album and it’s the number one album on the hip-hop chart and he just dropped a book that’s doing well.”
“How many did he sell?” 50 shot back. “Number one? Come on. What week was it? Some weeks 10 purchases make you number one.”
Kev then asked 50 if he respects anything about Ross’ career and Fif said he didn’t. 50 Cent doesn’t respect Rick Ross. The Power star also seemed to take a shot at Meek Mill and the moves he’s made towards prison reform.
“No. There’s nothing there. I never wanted to work with him,” 50 replied. “Look, I understand from a perspective of someone who’s just listening to what it sounds like. But does it matter that he’s a correction officer? Does that ever matter? Look at the irony of the artists to come under him. Prison reform, and all of the wrongfully convicted and wrongfully treated people in the prison system while he’s on the whole other side of them? So just look at it.”
