50 Cent Admits To Wasting Time In Rap Beefs With Fat Joe, Jadakiss and Cam’ron

50 Cent has never been one to shy away from beef. During a new interview, however, the veteran rapper reflected on the energy he directed to a couple of notable Hip-Hop feuds. Speaking with journalist Mesfin Fekad for The Hollywood Reporter, the 59-year-old expressed his current feelings on past disputes.

“Look, I think we wasted too much time arguing, me and Fat Joe, me and Cam’ron. There’s other guys like Jada[kiss], we cleared it up easier. But we wasted time because it was just the competitive nature,” explained the entertainment executive.

“It wasn’t like we crossed paths and had real heat for each other.”

He continued to detail how his rivalry with Fat Joe went a little further.

“It went on more with Joe because he’s more like me, he’s closer in character to me. When we’re at odds, we are at odds, and we did that for a long time. And because of his loyalty to Irv [Gotti] and Ja [Rule], because he worked with them, I was seeing him not be happy from the things that were making me happy.”

The New York native also described how he and his Bronx peer relate now, saying, “When you look back at it, you go, ‘Wait, what happened?’ Because we didn’t even have no altercation or no specific thing that created it. Now he’s like my friend, and I don’t care that he has relationships with people that I don’t, because he’s always had those relationships.”

50 Cent’s storied beef with Ja Rule may last forever however, as he responded a simple “nah” when asked if he had ever spoken to the “Mesmerize” performer.

Elsewhere in the interview, 50 Cent discusses Sean “Diddy” Combs , his success in television, turning 50 next year, and his relationship with his child’s mother, Daphne Joy Narvaez.
