Rap Moguls Behaving Badly: 7 Black Entertainment Biz Stars at Their Worst
5. 50 Cent Hits Rick Ross Below the Belt & At His Heart
While most rap beefs are handled (and often resolved) on wax, G-Unit mogul 50 Cent chose to take the low road in his 2009 beef with Rick Ross. While the two did indeed exchange verses, more people will probably remember 50 for putting a sextape of one of Ross’ baby mothers (NSFW) on his website, and inviting another to New York where she was wined and dined in a series of increasingly deplorable viral videos. Perhaps the biggest gut punch came when 50 released a video of himself and Floyd Mayweather with Ross’ son at Mayweather’s Vegas mansion. 50’s out-of-bounds insults backfired however, when Ross refused to indulge him anymore and just stuck to making better music. While 50 struggles to remain relevant, Ross is arguably the biggest hitmaker in the game today. Bawse!
