50 Cent Disagrees With Kanye West

NEW YORK - Rap feuds aren't usually about differing opinions on President Bush. However, that appears to be the case between 50 Cent and Kanye West.

50 says he disagrees with West's infamous statement that "George Bush doesn't care about black people," proclaimed during a September telethon for Hurricane Katrina victims.

"I think people responded to it the best way they can," 50 told ContactMusic.com. "What Kanye West was saying, I don't know where that came from."

Instead, 50 said, "The New Orleans disaster was meant to happen. It was an act of God."

It wouldn't be the first time 50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis Jackson, made comments that weren't flattering of West. In a September interview with MTV, 50 - while otherwise complimentary of the popular "Gold Digger" rapper - said: "I feel like Kanye West is successful because of me."

"After 50 Cent, (hip-hop fans) was looking for something non-confrontational, and they went after first thing that came along. That was Kanye West, and his record took off."

West's second album, "Late Registration," has remained near the top of the charts since debuting Aug. 30.

50 stars in the upcoming film "Get Rich or Die Tryin," a biopic of the rapper that is set to open Nov. 9.

Kanye had his reason why he made such a comment and i agree with him.Bush could have done alot to help ease the crisis in new orleans but he stalled. saying goes what goes around..comes around..and Bush will soon feel it. 50 cents has a right to say how he feel, but in this case he's in denial.

KEEP SPEAKING OUT KANYE!

Everybody has the right to agree or disagree, and also everybody has a right to their own opinion, hence I don't see why 50 should chastise Kanye for his opinion and I don't see why people should chastise 50 for disagreeing with Kanye. Two wrongs don't make a right, I think they should both continue to do their thing and forget about getting into unnecessary conflicts.

50 crazy as hell...seem like he get rich and switch...cant see what they doing to poor people no more...them white people he mingling with screwed up his head. Thats why mutabaruka said "it no good fe stay in a white man country too long". In this case "in white mans company".

50 Cent is such an ignorant street nigga. I hate using that word but if ever there was such a thing it's him. I can't stand when artists with fledgling careers creat beef to get publicity. 50 knows damn well he's not informed when it comes to politics. I wish he would just dissappear along with his G-UNOT crew with the exception of Lloyd Banks and Young Buck. But Tony Hell-No and Olivia Rue Paul can get the damn boot. 50 is over.
