What is rapper 50 CENT feeling like for him to have lashed out at the king of New York, JAY-Z, i think its too much. He has taken a sly swipe at rap rival JAY-Z, insisting the 99 PROBLEMS hitmaker was a "no one" until he wed BEYONCE KNOWLES.
Superstar Jay-Z, real name Shawn Carter, wed the Bootylicious beauty in
April (08), and 50 Cent claims it was their union - not the rap mogul's
music - that raised his profile on the international scene.
He says, "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."
The 'In Da Club' rapper has also disputed reports that Jay-Z is worth an
estimated $1 billion (GBP540 million), but is adamant he's not jealous
of his fortune.
He adds, "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."
50 Cent recently topped Forbes magazine's poll as the biggest earning
hip-hop star of 2008, making $150 million (GBP81 million) in the last
12 months, compared to Jay-Z, who came second with $82 million (GBP44
million).
In my opinion i think 50 is taking it too far, to have outlash Jay the way he just did.
