jay z can thank beyonce Options

[brooklyneast05]

50 Cent, long-known for taking jabs at other Hip Hop artists, had some interesting things to say about Jay-Z in a recent interview.

The Queens rapper said it was Jay's marriage to superstar singer Beyonce - and not his own music - that made Hov the international star he is today, according to PR-Inside.com.

"I'm a big fan of Jay-Z, but outside of the States and Hip Hop circles, no one really knew who he was until he married Beyonce'," said Fif in the interview.

The G-Unit general also said that reports of Jay-Z's total estimated worth of $1 billion is inaccurate. "I don't believe he's worth that much! It's all been exaggerated. I'm comfortable. I don't want for anything so I'm not in a race."

This far from the first time 50 has had less than flattering comments towards Jay-Z in the past, as 50 has criticized Hov's previous work as Def Jam president. The two had a very minor dispute years ago, when Jay-Z responded to 50's underground hit "How to Rob" by rhyming at a Summer Jam concert: "I'm about a dollar/Who the f**k is 50 Cent?"

wtf

Too bad they didn't get married until this past January.

He a hata. He jus' mad cuz his relationship with Baby Beyonce Ciara fizzled. 50 just needs to shut his dumb ass up.

That was blown way out of proportion. Vol. 3, Life & Times of S. Carter was realeased in 1999. 50 Cent dropped Power of the Dollar in winter of 2000. Jay-Z just performed the song 'Its Hot (Some Like it Hot)' and that line is coincidentally there.

50 Cent may have the business sense to climb to the top of his riches but there's a huge difference between the two of them (aside from an overwhelming gap in lyrical skill); people actually like Jay-Z. 50 Cent has built himself up to be a loathesome character in the game of hiphop and cats just don't want to work with him.
