:lol I dunno about retracting the statement. What the hell is he gonna say? "Ya know, things got a little out of hand there, I apologize to the people who are throwing me out of their group. I'm just gonna take getting kicked out of the group real lightly and act like nothing happened." :lol

50 Cent has made his intention to leave Aftermath eventually. I think Dre will side with Game since he is a more loyal artist and since he doesn't really like beef.

Oh that would be a great day. If 50 lost support from everybody, even the suburban kiddies could see how little talent he has.Poody said:

You mean Jimmy Iorvine. Game, Jadakiss, Will Smith are all on Interscope in some way or other.

well, i do get the feeling that 50 might very well be gay...
The tough talk turned into a pity party during his last song early yesterday when the 25-year-old started to cry while talking about how people had turned against him.
"I'm not hiding up at the station. I'm real from the streets. I'm a real person," The Game said. "If you don't like me, then kill me. I ain't afraid."
That ain't Gansta :lol
Oh my god:
At least two gunmen fired, and one of The Game's flunkies, Kevin Reed, 23, a parolee from Compton, was shot in the buttocks, police said.

This is what I am trying to figure out... if Em has to pick sides... it will be on whatever side Dre is on...I'm pretty sure. Or Aftermath will fall apart like everything else Dre has touched (besides his fat bank account)

Wanksta came before that and was just as big (at least here in NY). No Dre involvement that I'm aware of.
Here are videos of a radio interview he did in Philly... he has nothing but respect for Dre and Em.

The way I see it, the only way he'll leave is if he gets dropped.

He seems to be a little upset with Dre.
dskillzhtown
keep your strippers out of my American football
In interviews 50 has dropped hints he is not too happy the Dre seems to not have any time for him, though he is making Dre a hell of alot of money. He talked about the scenario that would have him leaving Aftermath because of it. He talked about also how he hasn't even done a song on Dre's upcoming CD.
As far as Em, I would love to hear what he has to say about things. He drops 'Toy Soldiers', but then he is cool with 50 doing 'Piggy Bank' and all this other dissing? 50 is a grown man fo sho, but Em, you can't be yelling peace, but then letting your artists yell anything but and expect us to believe you.

We know how much Em likes Dre, and I imagine he's behaving the same way Dre did when he took Em under his wing. Dre said he left Death Row to get away from the nonsense that was going on, yet he let Em go buck wild for a few years, even getting in trouble with the law. I imagine Em is doing the same sort of thing with 50...he doesn't wanna be involved in petty squabbles anymore, but at the same time he's letting 50 do his own thing and find his own way. If Em didn't do that, he'd probably look at himself as a hypocrite.
Having said all that, the reins will probably have to get tightened at some point...I don't recall Em going at it with say, Cube or Snoop. 50 going after Nas (who Em is good friends with) probably isn't the wisest course of action.
BTW, In 'Da Club MURDERS Wanksta...it's not even worth discussing. Wanksta's only positive is that it's a Ja Rule dis. :lol

in that case, w/o Dre and "In da club", 50 cent would be nothing more than what he accuses Jadakiss of being. Merely "local".

One of Dre's musicians posted in a forum, who goes by the name Mel-man. He said that 50 is just basically jealous of the time Dre spent on Game's album. Also, he noticed a change in 50 demeanor after the success of Get Rich or Die Tryin. He went from being a cool cat..... You know what I just post what he said and save me some time.
I can only imagine the amount of rumours and posts this topic has produced - I'm sorry for doin another one, but I thought you might want some perspective on the situation. Just as we were moving away from 50's album and really focusing on Busta's new joint this happens. I don't really know 50 or Game outside the studio and working environment so I'm not gonna pretend like I know what's really going on between them. I am not surprised that Game and 50 split from each other. I think we all knew the situation was coming to a head and I know Dre, Em and Jimmy were hoping for a peaceful solution and for Game to move off G-Unit as quietly as possible. However, 50 obviously didn't want a peaceful and quiet solution. It is real unfortunate that it happenned this way, but it did and it has to be handled INTERNALLY from here on out, not over the radio station. I don't really know what 50 was thinking. 50 talks about loyalty but to me one of the most unloyal things one can do is to air out FAMILY BUSINESS in public. 50 put Dre and Em in an unfair and difficult situation. This could have been handled in a positive way. Obviously 50 and Game's relationship had deteriorated to a point beyond repair. But it should have been settled as a family. Game could have been moved off G-Unit through internal discussions and monetary settlements could have been handled fairly. I will not take sides either way. I don't think anyone should take sides and please don't believe all the rumours and media reports. The media is jumping all over this and relying on false information to generate headlines and interest. Please refrain from making judgements too soon, cause you don't really know anything besides what you heard 50 say on the radio and that game is off g-unit. Besides that eveything else is rumours and innuendo.
What has been Dre's reaction to all of this? I won't speak for him but I know this has hurt him quite a bit, especially 50's way of handling the situation. I know Dre was getting more and more frustrated but was hoping things could be worked out internally and they could keep a strong business and music relationship. With 50 airing out his frustration with Dre on the radio it only made things worse. If 50 had a problem with Dre he should have talked to Dre about it in private. I know 50 has a lot of respect for Dre and vice versa, thats why I don't understand his approach. I know 50 was hoping Dre would produce a lot of The Massacre, but because 50 was so stubborn in releasing the album early in the year and sticking to his (50's) schedule Dre could only spend a small time on the album. Dre was focusing on Game's debut album whle 50 was prepping the massacre. Even when 50 was out here Dre had to focus on getting game ready. If 50 would have been able to wait until Game's album was mixed I think you would have heard a lot more Dre tracks on The Massacre. 50 tried to smother Game's release and only allow it 3 weeks to sell before releasing his album. Thankfully Jimmy and Dre got it pushed backed to March.
I really hope and pray that 50 finds some peace and gets his ego in check. The 50 I met when he was here for a week to work on GRODT is much different than the 50 I saw when he was out here to work on the Massacre and Game's album. The 50 I first met was humble, hungry, at ease and really fun and positive to work with. Dre had a great time working with him. Last year though 50 was a lot different. I don't think he is real happy. The dude is surrounded by bodyguards and a Army of personal secret service men at all times. It can't be fun needing protection every waking minute of the day. Deep down I think 50 is a good person, but right now he is confused and doesn't really listen to anyone, even his musical family. And he didn't think about the possible reprecussions of his words before he opened his mouth on the radio a few days ago. I do know that as soon as they could the big three got a hold of 50 and told him to shut up for once, cancel his appearances and come handle the situation privately with them. Dre and Em are really stuck in a tough situation and have been trying to put their minds together and figure out a positive solution to the problem.
What happens from here? I hope (and think) there is a positive solution out there for this problem. I don't think 50 and Game will have a relationship, but past that too much is upon the air to speculate or predict how it will turn out. All I ask is that people stop putting rumours out - let this situation be handled as a family. Let Dre, Em, 50 and Game have a chance to get together and try to work things out privately. Hopefully 50 heeds his gag order and puts his ego and frustration aside and listens to Dre and Em and handles things the right way. The only way this situation can be worked out is through face to face discussions with everyone working together like men and seeing if relationships can be repaired and solutions can be found. 50 (and Game too) have to learn that when it comes to family problems you can't put it out there in the media and disrespect family in public. That's a cowards way to handle things. Real men talk things out in private. I might sound like I'm mad at 50. I'm disappointed more than anything. I like the old 50 Cent and hope and pray he can make changes for the better. I don't want to see him or Game dead because of some bullshit. I don't want to see 50 go down this path. Dre always stresses that you can always turn any negative into a positive. Hopefully we can take this negative situation, learn and grow from it and turn this situation into a positive one.
I hope everyone takes care. PEACE.

This entire thing is getting crazy. 50 basically said "you're either with me or against me" with the reasoning that anyone who does a song with anyone he has beef with also becomes an enemy(thus he going after Joe and Jada). Here is where it gets interesting, Eminem supposedly is doing, or has done a song on Fat Joe's upcoming album, not only that but Eminem has multiple times included both Jada Kiss and Nas among his favorite rappers...(He also produced a track for Nas on Godson).
Up to this point the entire Shady/Aftermath/G-Unit family have basically inherited each others' beefs, and ganged up on anyone who has dared to go after even a single individual in the crew--so as this 50 vs. Nas, Jada, and Fat Joe thing heats up will Em join in despite working, and or proclaiming his respect for all of those guys? Hell, with 50s newly aquired "me against the world" attitude, he may hold that against Shady if he doesn't.
And too bad Game defected... D-Block(Jada,Sheek, Styles, J-Hood) vs. All of G-unit(50,Banks,Buck, and Game) would have been a heated ass battle.
