THE GAME DARES FIFTY CENT TO KILL HIM

The Game has continued his war of words with 50 Cent, by daring his "coward" of a former mentor to "kill" him.
The Game told the audience at the Vault 350 Club in Long Beach that he himself decided to quit 50 Cent's hip-hop collective G-Unit, and that he wasn't sacked.

Then the rapper added that he isn't worried about getting shot, a comment made in response to the incident last week when a member of 50 Cent's entourage was shot and wounded in the lobby of a New York radio station. The incident occurred shortly after 50 Cent announced live on air The Game was no longer a member of G-Unit.

The Game said, "I'm not hiding up at the [radio] station. I'm real from the streets. I'm a real person. If you don't like me, then kill me. I ain't afraid. Come get me, you little [bleep]. I ain't scared."

The Game's lawyer, Jeffrey Lichtman, told the New York Post, "He's just blowing off some steam. He's angry. This is a very bright guy, he just reacted to what happened. What The Game said in the concert had nothing to do with the shooting. I think his comment speaks for itself. We're in America and he can say whatever he wants. I support his right to free expression."

50 Cent and the Game Call a Truce

NEW YORK - Perhaps selling 1.1 million copies of his new album in four days has softened the heart of 50 Cent. Or maybe he has so many feuds going, he can afford to let one go. On Wednesday, 50 Cent and The Game publicly squashed a bitter feud that had erupted into gunfire last week after 50 kicked Game out of his G-Unit clique for disloyalty.

The two platinum-selling gangsta rappers didn't exactly kiss and make up. When they emerged before a media throng at Harlem's famed Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, both looked as if they'd been shoved into apologies by a stern mother.

But they did shake hands, albeit at the end of the press conference, after speaking about contrition and the need for peace.

50 noted that Wednesday was the anniversary of the unsolved murder of Biggie Smalls in 1997, the culmination of a rap war between Biggie and Tupac Shakur that pitted East Coast against West.

"We're here today to show that people can rise above the most difficult circumstances and together we can put negativity behind us," said 50, a native New Yorker. "A lot of people don't want to see it happen, but we're responding to the two most important groups, our family and our fans."

"I just want to apologize on behalf of myself and 50," said Game, who's from the Los Angeles suburb of Compton. "I'm almost ashamed to have participated in the things that happened in the last couple of weeks."

50 presented an oversized check for $150,000 to the Boys Choir of Harlem. Game donated $103,500. It was not clear why Game chose that amount or whether he had been reinstated in G-Unit; no questions were taken at the press conference. The Game also made a contribution to the Compton schools music program.

Is the truce sincere?

"Of course it was genuine," said hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons, who was at the event. "They stood on stage together."

At the very least, it was a remarkable concession for rappers who routinely brag about killing their enemies.

"It is the first time we've seen 50 publicly take a step back" from a battle, said Elliott Wilson, editor in chief of the hip-hop magazine XXL.

In a statement earlier Wednesday, 50 Cent said: "I'm launching a new foundation, the G-Unity Foundation, Inc., to help people overcome obstacles and make a chance for the better in their lives ... to help them overcome their situations. I realized that if I'm going to be effective at that, I have to overcome some of my own. Game and I need to set an example in the community."

50 Cent has always set an example — usually as an unapologetic criminal gleefully wreaking havoc on other rappers. He almost single-handedly dismantled the multi-platinum career of Ja Rule by relentlessly targeting him in songs, magazines and his 2003 debut, the eight-million selling "Get Rich or Die Tryin'."

Last week 50 released his sophomore CD, "The Massacre," which including a song attacking rappers like Fat Joe, Nas and Jadakiss for making a record with Ja Rule. But his beef with Game was unusual because it involved a member of his own camp.

As 50 was on the radio announcing the expulsion of Game from G-Unit — apparently because Game wouldn't turn his back on some of 50s many enemies — Game's crew rolled up to the station. Guns were fired outside the building and a member of Game's posse was wounded. No one has been arrested in the shooting.

Game is a protege of superproducer Dr. Dre, who put Eminem (news - web sites) on the map, who in turn made 50 Cent a superstar. They're all on the same parent label, Interscope Records.

Those relationships probably played a hand in Wednesday's reconciliation.

"It's pressure for 50 to look at it from a business perspective and not a personal perspective," Elliott said. "I think the press conference was forced by the mainstream media's reaction to the incident. They don't benefit on a business level to be associated with violence."

Could the whole thing have been a publicity stunt for two rappers with albums in stores now?

Elliott doesn't buy it. "There really was a beef. I think there was a genuine conflict that 50 felt The Game was unappreciative of all the work he did on his album ... and Game is feeling like, 'I'm my own man now.'"

But the two have apparently decided that they have more to lose going against each other.

"I think (50) will continue to beef with other artists," Elliott said. "But to beef with your own artist and someone who you're in business with, it doesn't help you."

Those photos are hilarious.
Could there possibly two uglier, more sullen, black people in a room together pretending to be friends? I don't think so

Why in the hell is 50 kissing Game on that second picture? Looks like he picked up some bad habits in jail.

GGGGG GAY-UNIT!!!!!

Game should cut his ties from those queers and sign with Rap-A-Lot. The only reason 50 apologized is because Game's album is a smash hit.

yo if game daint wanna squash da beef he didnt have 2 but he agreed with it as well as 50! they make a sik team n dope recordz!

ya heard!! yo game would ov been nuttin wid out 50 n gunit!! his rhymz iz ighht but wid out dre beat n 50 2 bak him n aint all dat!

Shut Up lol them 2 look good as hell and u know it even though game got a big nose and 50 look like an ape

I thought that beef wasn't a game animal...

To be honest, I don't care if there is some beef between 50 and Game. They make a boatload of money, so if they can't get along, they can just fly on separate luxury jets, or hide away in their big-ass mansions. Or send their entourage to communicate with each other when necessary for business purposes.

When you make the kinda money that they do, there's a lot of ways to deal with it.
