50 Cent: "Eminem Is Elvis Presley; I'm Just James Brown"

October 28, 2010 |  by  |  Uncategorized  |  No Comments  |  Share  | 

In the November issue of XXL Magazine, you know where Fif and Soulja Boy mean mug on the cover for the masses, Curtis and DeAndre share details behind their new found bromance. Fif also praises Soulja for achieving success at such a young age. He also sounded off on the entire Fabolous/Soulja Boy Twitter match. He also calls Fabolous an idiot. No seriously, when you read it you’ll understand it better.

Aside from all that, Rondell Conway sat down one on one with Fif to discuss his new underdog position in hip-hop, responding to public scrutiny, and his stance on Twitter. Below you can read Fif sound off on Em’s successful year and how it will mold his grind for 2011. And maybe I’m tripping, but did just hit Jay with a backhanded compliment towards the latter of his response? Yes, I think he did.

“Eminem is Elvis Presley; I’m just James Brown- just the hardest-working man in show business. Em, he’s just a whole other animal..he’s like the Air Jordan to basketball. You got a lot of great players, but their brands haven’t grown to the point where Air Jordan’s brand is growing. Like, it’s not even when you match artists up that only sold 80 million records less than him. You can do the concert, but don’t get it fucked up.”

XXL’s November Issue hits stands this week!

The Boola Music Series serves as a reminder that Boola is still that NUCCA when it comes to feel good music. Hey, his words not mine. But, I must say…this Ne-Yo joint is FUCKING (sorry Dad, I know you don’t like me cursing on my site) TOUGH. Hey Shaffer, this should have definitely been on Libra Scale
