50 Cent hit up DJ Whoo Kid's Shade 45 show Saturday (December 10) and chopped it up about every subject under the sun. From the early days of G-Unit, meeting Lloyd Banks through Tony Yayo, how he revolutionized the mixtape game, being amazed that his mixtape ended up in Eminem's hands and what he meant when he said Lil Wayne was turning into 50 Cent.
"I see the backlash," 50 said of Wayne's Carter IV cd. "His last album I listened to it and it's some good sh*t on it, but it's not registering like that. They're [fans] are comparing it to the best material that he's ever made. Then you go, 'ok it's not that good' if you're comparing it to them big hits off of the last few albums that he had. That's what they did to the 'Curtis' album."
50 also clarified that his new artist Paris is a part of the Ryder Gang along with Kidd Kidd. In addition he is putting out another set of wireless headphones designed specifically for DJ's and is considering creating a cartoon series based on the character Butterball from his anti-bullying book 'Playground.'
For fans that were wondering why songs like "What Up Gangsta Pt. 2" weren't on The Big 10 project, 50 said he is still going to release a Street King mixtape. The Big 10 came out first because it coincided with the 10-year anniversary of 50 Cent is the Future.
There's a lot more to the interview. 50 also talks about his recent conversations with T.I. and Birdman plus his plans to continue to build G-Unit/G-Note Records through new talent.
