Promoting "Dark Sky Paradise", Big Sean Stopped by The Whoolywood Shuffle. He spoke on #IDFWU being a trending hashtag, his grandmother's influence on his life, and being left out of Illuminati rituals with 2 Chainz. We also tried to get out of him whether or not he's on Kendrick Lamar's sophomore album. See what he had to say. POW!
G-Unit visited the Ebro In the Morning show on Thursday, March 5.
Lloyd Banks reveals he was banging a 40-year old and her daughter, the group talk about why they're releasing EP's, new characters on season 2 of Power, Empire, Taraji P. Henson, Hispanic women, dating, Iggy Azalea needing a publicist, artists with ghost writers, Eminem, Michael Jackson's advice, SMS Promotions, Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Manny Pacquiao, Anthony Mason's passing and more.
G-Unit is making the promotional rounds to promote their Beast Is G-Unit EP. Angie Martinez invited 50 Cent, Lloyd Banks and Tony Yayo to the studio to chop it up.
Everybody took shots of Effen Vodka, including 50 Cent. Talked possible 'Get Rich or Dyin 2' movie, His youngest son Sire being the face of a kid's company, problems with his oldest son Marquise, their fast transition to success, not letting money change them, 50's taste in women, Vivica Fox, Ciara, Chelsea Handler, season 2 of Power, Frigo deal, was 50 a bully on the block in Queensbridge?
In 1995 when Suge Knight bailed Tupac Shakur out of Clinton Correctional Facility while he appealed his rape conviction, he also signed him to a deal with Death Row Records.
At the time the label was co-owned by Dr. Dre and Suge.
There were rumors of tension (although never confirmed) among some artists at the label because 'Pac instantly became it's biggest star.
50 Cent recently weighed in on the situation. Because Dre was unhappy at the time and Suge was desperate to make sure he held onto 2Pac, 50 believes Suge was plotting against his business partner.
"Suge was gonna kill Dre," theG-Unitmogul said viaHipHopDX.
"How do I keep [2Pac]?" 50 said of Suge's possible thought process at the time.. "Maybe I'll give him Dre's half. I don't know. Something might have to happen to Dre."
Luckily, we'll never know what Suge had planned because Dre walked away to start his own label, Aftermath.
The "My Life' rapper went on to say that he and Dre are not as close as they once were.
"I don't call to talk to him for no reason," 50 continued. "I think that relationship was business. For a long time, I was a New York Knick player in the middle of the LA locker room. Interscope was the West Coast when it was East Coast-West Coast going on, and I never really saw them respond properly to Game's disrespect when it happened 'cause they had some sort of allegiance to the West or something. I was like, ' You know I wrote the records?' Overall, I think the disconnect between me and Jimmy created the distance between me and Dre."
Tony Yayo chimed in on the Dre situation. In his opinion the producer wasn't loyal to G-Unit, even after they fought off his attacker at the 2004 Vibe Awards.
"We beat somebody up for Dr. Dre," Yayo said. "I could say it now. No disrespect to LA, but it was a whole bunch of New York dudes beating somebody up for Dre. He's cool. I like his music and everything. I just feel when you beat somebody up I feel like they owe you a little bit."
What's your take on G-Unit's relationship with Dr. Dre? And the idea that Suge was plotting Dre's demise?
