50 Cent is a clown. LOL@comparing G-Unit to St. Lunatics & D-12. It's only 2-3 members of G-Unit. Of course everybody know their names. nikkas can name 2 to 3 members of every group. The average hip hop fan can't name every memeber of the Wu-Tang Clan either.
He says he wanted them to brand themselves, but they couldn't wotk with anyone he didn't approve of. Guarantees he tells them all their shyt is wack, meanwhile he keeps making the same repetitive trash like it's fresh and new. Dude has released like 15 trash singles in 2 years.
He calls an emergency meeting and is upset because nikkas didn't think to put on some corny G-Unit sneakers? GTFOH!! Does Nike have a fit everytime Kobe, LeBron, Jordan are wearing some dress shoes? No. fukking Jay-Z had a stake in Roc-A-Wear and he was talking about Evisu. G-Units were casual shoes, he couldn't get anyone to endorse them, but his artist. And thats called good marketing getting a marketing budget and not really "spending it". More people are gonna see the video and hear the song than actually see any g-Unit artist and want to know what shoe they wearing.
i think your missing the point, as he said,at the time the fans would of wanted a new 50 cent album,instead he put his crew on first,n im sure u can name 5+members of the WU...so tthat alone kills your first point....
why would beef stop you from "branding yourself" banks is the most talented in all honesty he should be 6 albums deep by now....does beef stop banks signing a with a company to promote any of der items????????
you cant compare an athletes sneaker deal to a rap group....no matter what happens on court lebron has to wear his shyt,same with kobe ,its basketball sneakers,what ever happens off court is nothing because they are not playing basketball...
if im paying u money to build up "our" group then you should be rockin that shyt 24/7,its simple.
at the end of the day 50 doesn't owe them nothing,only thing 50 needs to do is chill when talkin about them....

whats this thing about WSHH?
.....he was better lyrically,but you know how many hot punchline nikkas it was around that time,he just had a good opportunity,without 50 how far would his talent have got em? He was a poor mans Fab without the consistent hit making ability,whos even more quiet than Fab is....If Fab could barely stay in the convo with his peers how the hell could banks have done that without 50?dont see the migos comparison at all,50 being responsible for the success of gunit is a fact. You cant point to one member of migos and say "so and so is why they are successful" becuz first of all they not that damn successful,and theres no clear leader.....50 was the clear leader and probably 90% of the reason u was listenin to gunit early on
at the Al Sharpton/Henchman segment
