Smell like 50 Cent, Smell Like A Winner

So what if G-Unit's Terminate On Sight sold less in its first week than Tha Carter III did in its fourth. 50 Cent is a winner! You can go against him, but you're going to lose! You can go hard... but he'll just go harder! Even when he thinks he's going to lose, he wins! Because he's a winner! It's just what he does. You think you're so great? Well, where's your body spray, huh? I don't see people lining up put some "Pure Blog Reader" on themselves! G-G-G-UNIT! [YouTube via Songs For Soap]

Latest by n/a: I'm just glad that G-Unit finally released its album. Now, he can stop burning down houses and end the fake fighting with Young Buck because it did not help sales (about 100k). He and Buck will call a truce and more »

Young Buck Responds To 50 Cent's Taped Conversation With "Taped Conversation"

Despite Young Buck's manager claiming that his client was too much of a "real man" to respond to 50 Cent's recording of Buck crying over the phone, Buck has already released a track, "Taped Conversation," which offers his side of the story. Buck claims that the conversation was from "about a year ago" and that while the tape reveals the "emotional" side of Buck, it reveals a very unflattering side of 50. "I know you think this makes you look big, it really makes you look bad...You don't know me!" 50 Cent has since released the entire recording of their conversation, including mentions of an upcoming show in Canada this weekend, which would suggest it was not recorded "about a year ago."

50 Cent Stays Classy, Releases Tape Of Young Buck Bawling

Come on, Young Buck. I know you're afraid of what will become of you now that you've been kicked out of G-Unit. But don't demean yourself by crying over the phone to 50 Cent about your IRS problems and how confused he makes you—especially because as befitting a celebrity who's rapidly losing his superstar status, 50 is pulling a Nixon and evidently taping his conversations, and he's not above sharing them with Miss Info. Stop crying, Buck. Just look at the bright side. You've still got fans, and you've still got a record contract with G-Unit. And you didn't have to appear alongside Cap'n Curtis in one of the gayest videos in recent history. More »

50 Cent Comes And Joins His Fellow Man

A group of soldiers in an Army barrack excitedly watch G-Unit's "I Like The Way She Do It" on TV until they hear footsteps and hurry back to their beds and stand at attention. Soon comes Captain 50 Cent, his hat tilted sideways. The Cap'n pumps his fist, surveys his recruits and gives the camera a mincing "grrr!" before announcing "Wo, wo, wo, wo, wo, wo! Wo, wo, wo, wo, wo, wo! I done told ya boy, I'm a soldier boy! I got no choice but to be a rider! I approach you, boy, with the toaster, boy! Get to point blank range and fire!" How is he not holding a riding crop during this? To paraphrase Four Four, I wasn't looking for gay in the video for G-Unit's "Rider, Pt. 2," but gay found me and snapped me on the ass with a wet towel. [OnSmash via Nah Right]

50 Cent Could Be Getting Some Fox Attitude

Like the Timex Social Club, I spend a lot of time lamenting the rumors that surround me every day. How do they get started? And where do they get crazy? In Truthmongerer, I'll try to suss out the kernels of truth in the rumors that are taking up airspace in gossip columns, blogs, and our tips inbox.

THE RUMOR: News Corp is signing 50 Cent and the rest of his G-Unit posse to a $300 million deal that includes "a large stake in every aspect of 50's businesses," 50 signing to MySpace Records, a G-Unit book deal with HarperCollins, and Curtis becoming one of the media company's largest shareholders.

TRUTH THRESHOLD: 20%.

50 Cent has thrown Young Buck out of his G-Unit crew for public insubordination. While the rapper is still signed to to G-Unit records, his recent public complaints about his diminshed presence on group mixtakes struck his employer as disturbingly "Game"-like in their whininess. Said Fid: "In order to validate himself as a man, he feels he has to go against what I'm doing, similar to some of the things we've seen from Game..." And the empire of Curtis crumbles a little more.

G-Unit sleaze Tony Yayo earned himself a scant 10 days of community service for his part in harassing the son of the Game's manager. Turns out it wasn't Yayo who assaulted the boy after all; that was his pal Lowell Fletcher, who earned himself a nine-month sentence. Because real men don't slap 14-year-olds. They mean mug while their buddies do the slapping. [Billboard]
