\n\t50 Cent might never stop trolling Jay-Z.<\/p>\n
\n\tAs the rapper, actor and film producer has been out and about promoting his upcoming movie Street Fighter<\/em>, he brought up his longtime rival. During a conversation about influence and power with comedian and podcaster Andrew Schulz, his Street Fighter<\/em> co-star, for Interview<\/em> magazine, 50 alluded to Jay\u2019s master marketing skills.<\/p>\n \n\t\u201cStability is attractive,\u201d he said when talking about becoming successful and financially stable. \u201cThem looking at you and knowing the financial component is going to take away the pressure they may feel, it almost puts you in a dream sequence. You don\u2019t personally have to be stylish. My stylist has to be stylish. They\u2019re picking out my clothes. And if you got help with what you decided to wear today, how is that not the best version of you? You see what I\u2019m saying? They have an opportunity to meet the best version of you because of the position you\u2019re in. That\u2019s how we see the person\u2019s personality after they settle in.\u201d<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\tRelated\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n \t\t\t\t\tBrandy Heading to Africa to Headline Flytime’s House of R&B Concert for Lagos’ Detty December\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n \t\t\t\t\tDaisuke Ashihara’s ‘World Trigger’ Vol. 30 Tops Billboard Japan Book Hot 100 as Comics Sweep Top 10\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n \t\t\t\t\tTroye Sivan Shares How He Got Nicole Kidman for ‘She’s the Best’ Video (And What He Thinks of AD\u00c9LA’s Hit)\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n \t\t\t\t\tExplore\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n \t\t\t\t\t50 Cent\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n See latest videos, charts and news<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \n\tHowever, he then got into how some feel like they need to maintain relevance to be top of mind and randomly used Jay and his oft-talked-about hair as an example. \u201cAfter they\u2019ve been there for a while, you see who they actually are. And if not, we see the gimmicks,\u201d he said. \u201cWe see things like the Basquiat hair. When that comes, you go, \u2018No, it was intentionally grown out for a Tiffany ad.\u2019 The puffy hair, cut it off. Go back to young me.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tHe then continued by commending Jay\u2019s relationship with touring companies and his ability to change the narrative of his debut album Reasonable Doubt<\/em> with his recent shows at Yankee Stadium and \u201cThe Home & Home Tour\u201d he did with Eminem back in 2010. \u201cIf you have a strong enough relationship with the tour companies, they\u2019ll do a touring deal with you because they\u2019re securing the tour deal with Beyonc\u00e9,\u201d he said. \u201cWhen they have to do things to broaden your audience, they may do New York and Detroit. He\u2019s done this before. He\u2019s done the stadium in New York. Him and Em, they matched him up with the biggest rapper in the world like they\u2019re the same. We do your hometown and then my hometown.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tHe added: \u201cThat\u2019s just to change perception and make him appear as big as Eminem. Bro, the album showed up No. 23 on the chart when it debuted. It was not a f\u2014ing big deal then. Why is it a big deal now? It\u2019s great marketing.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tSchulz then joked around and said producers of their new movie had first reached out to the Brooklyn mogul to play boxer Balrog before they hit 50 up. \u201cAin\u2019t no motherf\u2014ing way. No, bro,\u201d he replied in disbelief. \u201cHe is not working out for nothing. They can\u2019t pay him enough to do some sh\u2013 like that.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tDuring another interview with Today<\/em>, 50 trolled Jay once again when asked who will perform at his wedding after a brief conversation about how he ended up doing his own performance at Indiana Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton\u2019s wedding. \u201cJay-Z is gonna do my wedding, he\u2019s gonna perform. Him, Kanye too,\u201d he said jokingly. \u201cI\u2019ll have Kanye if he\u2019s not banned at the time. He\u2019ll be there.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tHe was also asked about the news that Diddywatched his Netflix docuseries Sean Combs: The Reckoning<\/em> while in prison, and of course, he answered it in a way only he knows how. \u201cEveryone watched it. It was No. 1 in 31 countries,\u201d 50 replied. \u201cI didn\u2019t expect him to have a jail-broken tablet that was contraband in the actual facility but he got a chance to see it. And look, it\u2019s great. I feel like it was the best documentary that went out on him. It was fair.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tYou can check out his Today<\/em> interview below.<\/p>\n\n
