This goes back to that Angie Martinez thread and the answer is no...
And featuring on a song doesn't count cuz that just keeps him hot more than anything, so it's more so him using them.
50 didn't have to show up to brehs funeral or do anything posthumously for Pop. He doesn't benefit from this. It's out of pure love. The young generation gonna see this and fukk with 50 for even more years to come.
I'm not making this a shyt on Jay thread cuz Jay (and Bey) have both shown major love and respect to Kobe posthumously so they good in my book. But when we talking rap, there's a reason these new artists all cite 50 as their inspiration.
