G-Unit frontman 50 Cent recently spoke on his past feud with The Diplomats’ Cam’ron and promised he no longer has issues with Dipset.

Reflecting on their short-lived 2007 rivalry, 50 said their diss records were a mere representation of hip-hop’s competitive roots.

“What me and Cam’ron had is music,” 50 said, characterizing their rift as a challenge to be the preeminent MC. “It’s the competitive nature of the art form. In hip-hop, there’s always been battling. It’s a part of it. I don’t wake up or go to sleep feeling like I hate Cam’ron. He’s a good guy.” (MTV)

Last week, Cam took a similar stance, claiming their battle fueled hip-hop.

“I don’t have no problem with 50. 50 cool with me,” Cam said. “It was good for hip-hop. We had our little hip-hop beef or whatever you wanna call it, but ain’t no problem. Jim [Jones] and Juelz [Santana] do stuff with 50 and they camp all the time. I don’t have a problem with 50 at all. It is what it is. We had our little discrepancy, and we moved on from it.” (RapFix)

In 2009, Cam spoke on his duels with 50 and other elite rap stars.

“I’m not making up fake, imaginary beefs,” Cam said in an interview last April. “I’m not just jumping out for beef for no reason. When I went at Jay-Z, it was a lot of inside stuff that went on at Roc-A-Fella that we don’t need to go in to…There’s been a lot of times that I been wanting to do something but couldn’t because of Dame [Dash]. The 50 Cent thing, look you dissing, I took it as Jim [Jones] and Diplomats. Whoever else you could think of, Nas. The Nas situation. You got on the radio and said that Cam and [Funkmaster] Flex is ugly and Angie Martinez and N.O.R.E., whoever’s wack. It wasn’t because I attacked any of these people, it’s kinda all on defense, it’s always something that somebody did to me first.” (Miss Info)

In August 2009, Cam declined the opportunity publicly end the war with 50 at an annual “Family Day” event in Queens, New York.

“I’m not going to no show in Queens,” Killa said in an interview. “I don’t know how true it is — a few of my people, associates, said he was trying to reach out. But I ain’t going to no concert in Queens. Come up to Harlem Week. We could sit down and have the roundtable meeting if you really wanna be serious. Or meet anywhere — we can meet in Benihana’s if you wanna be serious. It don’t matter. I’m not squashing a problem we had in Queens at your event. That’s the same way he got other artists to come to his shows, whether they was down with Dipset or D-Block or Terror Squad, or whatever the case may be. It ain’t no real beef, but we ain’t gonna squash what we had at a Queens event. We’ll meet halfway — Triborough Bridge or something. But I ain’t going to no show in Queens. I’ll be at Harlem Week.” (MTV)

Grammy-winning rapper Eminem will once again lend his support to Shady Records artist 50 Cent on the G-Unit leader’s upcoming Before I Self Destruct follow-up.

According to 50, additional guest appearances include Lil Kim and the Unit’s Lloyd Banks.

50 Cent stormed Sundance over the weekend to announce his latest film ventures. While there, he also shared some other exciting news, revealing that he’s reuniting with Eminem for his next album. “I just flew from Detroit. I’m working with Em on my new album,” 50 told a reporter during the Park City festival. The hip-hop mogul has already collaborated with an impressive cast for his fifthstudio album including Lil’ Kim, Akon, Swizz Beatz, Busta Rhymes, and Lloyd Banks. (Rap-Up)

Earlier this month, 50 updated fans on the status of his forthcoming solo project.

“Here I am I’m back did you miss me? I was working on the album today. I think I’m 80 percent done,” 50 tweeted Saturday (January 15). (50 Cent’s Twitter)

In November, 50 spoke on the significance of dropping a perfect follow-up to 2009′s Before I Self Destruct.

“What [fans] are hearing are just my ideas,” Fif said in an interview. “This is my Detox album, it may take ten years and you gonna wait on it until it comes but when it do come, it’ll be perfect. I recorded 20 songs to a whole different album concept before I put that on the side and said I wanna do this, what I’m doing now. I’ma write until I feel like I have something perfect. I feel like music marks time and it’s important to put out the ‘right’ sound for that ‘right’ moment. Like my Curtis album, people said my Curtis album wasn’t good and it had ‘Ayo Technology,’ number one record on the album. It had ‘I Get Money,’ ‘I Still Kill’ featuring Akon, Robin Thicke, so many hit records on the actual album, I’m like, ‘What are you listening to?’ But I guess I look at it and say it’s timing…There’s nobody in hip-hop that possesses the ability to do what I do. I’m more exciting than these people. I genuinely believe that…” (MTV News)

Recently, 50 said he would take a different approach to completing collaborations for his latest album.

“I made collaborations [but] this time, I actually just wanted to create things and see if anything came out that I felt like otherartists should get on,” Fif explained in an interview. “My previous albums, I went in the studio with them — this time I’m making music and then trying to find ways to put them on the records. It’s more me even when it’s a collaboration. It’s them fitting into what I felt was right now as opposed to us making a total compromise.” (Maximo TV)

Since 50 Cent’s Get Right Or Die Tryin’ 2003 debut, Eminem has appeared on every solo LP released by the G-Unit leader.
