    This is such a memorable interview
    Do think it played a part in the industry blackballing him

    One of the best I watched.
    No PR answers.

    yeah 50 was blackballed by Jimmy Iovine and Dre for his headphone debacle
    He didn't get a Beats line for himself and was pissed so went out and started SMS audio while Jimmy and Dre were the owners of Beats. On top of that he said

    n----s think Jimmy Iovine's my boss
    n-----, f--- Jimmy Iovine, n-----!
    I'm from a hundred thirty fourth street, n-----!

    It’s a good interview but I don’t see it as far as this interview goes—no one gonna blackball him over Jadakiss lol and he basically said as much. It’s true Jada and fat joe had some hits with Why? and Lean Back during this time but 50 was a commercial monster

    He posted this recently.



    Young 50 doesn't look like someone you'd want to mess with.
