Fifty Cent hasn’t been RELEVANT in my opinion since Get Rich or Die Tryin’. At least Nas stays with some originality.

Fitty needs to stick to selling vitamin water and promoting his Donald Trump imitating TV show.

cosign Silky Jay

This dude is crazy. “N—er” was a much better album than “Terminate Our Selves” and everyone but the most brainwashed G(ay)-Unit fan will agree. 50 has had hits but Nas has classics that will live in hip-hop forever.

“Verbal Intercourse”
“I Gave You Power”
and of course “Ether”

NaS is top 5 ALL TIME, 50 was only top 5 CURRENTLY for about 2 years from ‘02 - ‘04 and then that wall hit him harder than Vivica A.

Also, let’s not forget who first helped put Fifty on (after Onyx). This is the same dude who once said, “Nastradamus predicted it, 50’s the future.” You can’t call dude a prophet and then turn around and call him over without getting clowned for it. Sit down, Curtissssssssssssssss.

I guess I’m just a Nas stan ’cause I thought his last few albums have been tight. The only Fif album I own is GRODT and I haven’t played it in at least a year or so, altho I bump Nas every day.

50 thinks hes still hot because his website tells him so. I think his reason for not engaging Nas is bogus. He knows who to fuck with and who not to fuck with. Nas threw the bait and 50 didnt bite. I say he scared to go at it on wax with Nas. I dont blame him, the last dude who tried got ethered.

1st of all, i live in queens and i know for a FACT that we still fuk wit 50..if u heard a car bumpn some shit it was 50’s latest mixtapes..as for the untitled album..i aint heard NOBODY BUMPIN NAS IN QUEENS. get ya head out ya asses u bloggin asswipes..o yeah DV8, fukin CAMRON ethered nas..”take ya daughter, rkelly, have my way with her face”..did that homo nas respond? nope. he went and signed wit the dude who he supposedly ethered. wake up nerds.nas lost.

Who’s 50 Cent?

Today is “Ether” day. I cannot believe you did not mention it, Ron. Click my name to celebrate.

NaS>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>50

50 once had a bark, but now he does not even have a spark.

Well if that ain’t the pot calling the kettle “Nigger,” Curtis. LMAO THAM I ALMOST FELL OUT THE CHAIR WHEN I READ THAT U A FOOL WITH IT RON. ALSO 50 NEED TO CALM DOWN HE HAS STRIPPED HIS BODY OF HIS TATS. DON’T LET NAS WHIP UP A ETHER TO STRIP HIS ASS OF HIS CAREER. NAS IS ON THE WAY OUT OF THE GAME A LEGEND 50 NEEDS TO GIVE US SOMETHING ON PAR TO GRODT OR BETTER JUST TO BE CONSIDERED GREAT.

LET ME GET SOME OF THE POWER OF THE DOLLAR 50 SOME OF THAT GUESS WHO’S BACK 50. THE LAST THING 50 DID I MESSED WITH ALOT. WAS THAT SINCERELY YOURS SOUTHSIDE YOU CAN’T HATE ON THAT I STILL LISTEN TO THAT ON THE REGULAR.

Ron MeXIco
ARE you 50-centing your self? First Trick Trick….now 50. You might as well talk shit to Em too.

Good post Ron.

I gotta say though, even though Nas isnt as “hot in the streets” as we was in the 90’s or even as recently as 2001-2003, I would argue he’s doiung pretty well for a dude who “fell off”. Untitled did get critical praise, debut top of the charts and somehow manage to sneak gold with no Def Jam push and publicity that was doing more harm than good.
Plus dude just got another couple of Grammy nods (yeah I know Grammys dont mean shit), a Fila endorsment deal, a world tour on his own and headlining Rock the Bells and joined Kanye on the Australian leg of the Glow in the Dark tour (which according to press there he stole the show), he really seems to be pretty well off for a dude 17 years into a rap career.

Can we agree that Nas is in a somewhat good space compared to other East Coast vets and even current young rappers in general? I think so.

fam you are falling off someting surrrrious. get back to being funny. NOW!

Cincuenta Centavo, hahaha!!!

For real, Nas, drop an “Ether” to 50 Cent.

Saw NaS On Monday On The New Zealand Leg Of The glow in The Dark Tour. Stole The Show From Kanye Which Is Saying SomethingAs Kanye Was Crazy. Had The Whole Crowd Chanting Braveheart During Made U Look. Awesome! Oh Yeah And The 50 Concert This Year Sucked Balls!

not sure of the single 50 has but. it dont stand out. to a person that just listens to musik only when they go out they gonna think it sounds like another song he did already.
Nas is lyrikal but his beats are garbage. at least you will listen to his albums 10 years from now and say oh shit thats what he meant in that line????

HIP HOP IS TRASH RIGHT NOW. im bored

Fifty doesn’t want nutn to do with Nasty. I’ve noticed that Curtis is quick to “attack” when he smells weakness. Nasir doesn’t now, nor ever has had, that odor on him. 50’s from the streets, per se, so I’m sure he’s aware of the “watch the quiet niggas” mantra. & letthe record show that the Nas/jigga feud was basically set in motion behind a female, not that Jay felt like he had to topple Nas’ queen piece (no pun intended) & declare a lyrical war. He didn’t expect Nas’ bite to be so bad, since his bark aint too loud to begin with. Jay got slaughtered in one fuckin song, then tried repeatedly lke a drowning infant to get to the shallow end. He didn’t neccesarily drown, but he hasn’t jumped into the deep end again ether (get it?).
& Curtis is an intelligent man, damn sho smart enuf to know that Nas aint bleedin, he aint weak, & anything but interview slick talkin my be the retirement party that he really didn’t want. Name 5 MC’s that came @ Nas in 17 yrs?
Fuck it, ill say it straight out. Nasir Jones is hip hop all day. Fif is a corporate whoremonger. Longevity & true talent translates into legendary status. Fifty is full of Jim.

Everybody entitled to a few bad albums man stop with the bullshit people act like the man just went in on him the dude asked him what he feel about the lyric and he stated what he feel
bitches sit down to GET UP and them same bitches sit down to HERO so what are you trying to say
people saying 50 need to stick to his tv show like thats something bad or something NAS was trying to do a show to it was just to boring so he didnt put it out NAS did a few low budget wack ass movies ya’ll probably never heard about poit is everybody trying to get they hustle on cause it aint that much money in the music no more so i dont understand how a nigga can discredit somebody for finding different hustles in this game

50’s relevance in the world of hip-hop has faded like jeans that have been washed too many times. I can’t believe he has to say that Nas is finished. Nas may not be selling high as 50 but creatively and sell wise he remains consistent while 50 and his G-Unit empire’s relevance drops like a bird turd on a newly washed car. The real reason 50 didn’t go after Nas after Nas took a cheap shot at him is because he don’t want it with Nas.

Man I love watching 50 just fall deeper and deeper into the quicksand. Dude needs to realize he will NEVER be on Nas’ level. Was 50 a powerhouse in the game? Hell yeah he was, nobody can deny that. But that was 4 years ago money, and the fact is he hasnt dropped anything truly original since Get Rich or Die Trying. Nas is the epitome of what a rapper should be. Intelligent, well spoken, someone who has respect for the people who laid the groundwork for hip hop and a true “mastermind” of the game. 50 even said it himself, “This is chess, not checkers”. Motherfucker take your own advice and step your rap game up, or step the fuck out the rap game. Because a dude like Nas will turn your ass into hamburger meat before you can even get a “Go shawty, Its ya birfday!” out your fuckin mouth. PERIOD.

“They smile in the light, hate in the dark,
you call it beef, to me its’s just a fuckin’ walk in the park.
Because you are who you are when nobodys looking
That’s who you are so when the cash and cars is gone, the day after tomorrow
Don’t be askin’ to borrow, ski mask get hard, like the way you rap in your bars
I could ride on you and whoever, devise new endeavors
I’m as live as hive full of preditors” - Nas

Curtis put his own foot in his mouth. Aint nobody force him to be so sideways in his response (in that article). That funny little remark sounded like his feelings were hurt, but he knew that he can’t compete with Nas on Nas’ level. If somebody can point out where Nas was speaking foul against Fiftys business ventures, then I’ll eat my keyboard. But that didn’t happen. 50’s been pokin subliminals at Nas for a while, now all of the sudden he wonts to try and discredit him because he wishes he was as well respected as him. My man said earlier every mans entitiled to a few off albums, including Nas, so in that case nobody’s perfect. I’m a Nas fan since “Live at the BBQ”, and I’ve seen him play defense when he had to, but Curtis is always rushing to the goal, if only to draw the foul and get a couple freebee shots. A man wouldve said at the most, “I’m not here to talk about Nas”, or some arrogant, not worth my time remark, instead of comment on that mans personal situation. He knows that far as dollars and sells, he got Nas fa sholy, but respect in the game itself, 50 isn’t prepared for his last battle to be with a giant. His arms are way too fucking short to box with god. And saying that 50’s days are limited isn’t a jab at the man, its a realistic assesment of his career. That’s what happens when your best album is your first (GRODT), and the hunger dies immediately. Nas may not be the richest, or most popular, but I bet 50 wouldn’t battle him live, for $ or for free. He shouldve learned that its easy for his mouth to write checks his ass can’t cash when he challenged Kanye to first week sales, then tried to downplay the onslaught with that retard ass giggle and a snide remark. This aint what 50 was put here for, so let him go on to the boardroom where he wants to be, but as far as the artistic facet of the culture, that goon isn’t fucking with Nas.

Ok i respect what some of ya’ll niggas got to say but some of ya’ll niggas is such die hard fans of nas that he could never do wrong say if 50 cent dropped a good diss record to nas ya’ll niggas would STILL say nas killed him even if he did some half ass shit (I know i just set myself up for the ol “cause his half best is better than 50’s best” cause some of ya’ll niggas so predictable)
NAS wouldnt battle him live shit he wouldnt even battle JAY-Z live
How come niggas wasnt saying nothing about nas when CAM was getting at him and nas never did a song about him but when they asked a question about cam he would say the SAME THING

I call it the tupac factor niggas was such a die hard fan of pac that they would never admit to pac not being a better MC than biggie

Or better yet the OBAMA factor that if one nigga would say i dont like his stance on some of the issues and niggas would just turn they back on him cause niggas just such die hard supperters that he cant do no wrong

Me personally i dont think fifty fell of its just what niggas do they like then they hate you niggas was saying nas only had one hit album and that was his first untill he dropped stillmatic which was like what 3 albums later if you gonna compare nas to fifty you got to split it up in different catagorys there club songs and street songs

Nas “ethered” Jay-Z

Fiddy Cent ran Ja out the “mainstream pop/rap/gangster king” spot and took over his gangsta singing career

What made Fiddy seem so big was the co-signs and commercial success. I didnt see Em and Dre cosign shit after GRODT. Prolly cause the rest of that was HIS bad ideas. Who the fuck said sign Ma$e? and all the G-Unit covers and big dynasty plans was all lies, M.O.P. was even further in the dark at G-Unit than on Def Jam. They careers just fizzled out over money. Mobb Deep too. He tried to buy out veteran new york rapper’s legacies and stamp gggg-unit on them. It worked too, cause Mobb Deep was the epitome of East Coast Gangsta Rap then they got to G-Unit and start callin theyselves hollywood hav and v.i.p.!!!! Fiddt use careers as stepping stones for himself, he signed his whole roster according to who would beef for him. Hot Rod’s first G-Unit record was dissing Game for leavin’, and that nigga just walked in. Then he went at Nas, remember? Spyder Joke, G-Unot Killa’s older cousin? Olivia(Oliver after 9pm)?
Fiddy, if you wanna make music, or be a mogul you need to take your piece out Yayo’s ass and get with the times. Nas been rockin’ and I bet he got some old and new unreleased shit thats phenomenal

@ teezy,
Ill admit Big was better than pac, so that destroys that theory (factor). Its not a matter of if Nas would battle, even on a radio station, its the statement that I already made. Arms too short, and 50 knows it. You can only intimidate those who allow it, and only for a limited amount of time. Nas isn’t overly aggresive, with the same lame formula, gearin his song towards the mainstream. I can’t name one Curtis song that has some “oh Fuck” moment. If it wasn’t for obsessive materialism, ya boy Curt would have a very limited list of concepts. Remember, this is called “how has more what?”, its called Hip hip. I said weeks ago that I’ve never even heard 50 use that term in a sentence. That’s what all us die hard Nasir heads are hollering bout. Again, Nas will end his career with a catalogue that won’t get stale. As far as the artistry, man, have you ever even owned a Nas album? How many cats can take a song bout the same old hood shit, then tell the story backwards (Rewind)? How many dudes can make a song outta going through an old rhyme book (Book of Rhymes)? Now, how many niggas can rap about rims, $, cars, killin everybody on the planet, pussy, weed (he don’t even smoke, frontin ass)? Oh yeah, that’s all curtis rhymes about.
There’s a reason us motherfuckers enjoy Nas’ music. Its quality poetry, simple and plain. Speaking of “simple and plain”, will see what happens when BISD hit the shelves. Its download age bruh, that nigga aint selling more than a mill, and I’m being genereous. Okay, I’m bullshitting, I don’t see gold in his future.

How could you expect 50 not to talk shit? This is “How to Rob” @its finest!

Lashing out @n*ggas for no apparent reason is how 50 stays relevant.

You can criticize a n*gga for talking shit because he’s not relevant in the industry anymore, when talking shit is his method of staying relevant.

hmm…I just confused myself.

I loved every fucking thing about this shit! SOOOOOOOOOOOO TRUE… Harsh when needed and everything!

OH and Nas is a legend… so he’s good regardless. And he stuck to the stript and didnt jack another niggas style to get dough… (cough) Ja Rule I mean 50
