It's just that ... He was fast tracked into television producer role with priority. He got a better production deal than the guy that made Sopranos

Basically just a blank check from a network to make any show he wants

Industry is super nepotistic

Does someone really go from the background described for him to starring in movies within a decade? :jbhmm:

Yeah the confusion of it being Hommo apparently came from the fact the guy who did it looked a lot like Hommo at the time. And Hommo was a known figure so 50 put 2 and 2 together.

50 was a real official street nikka, but he wasn't a killer or a known shooter or anything of the such. He hustled and had nikkas hustling for him. He did a quick bootcamp bid for that.

50 wasn't no feared street figure running around putting in pain. He just wasn't afraid of those type of nikka that did. That's where I think a lot of his rep is based off. It was less so about what he did, and more so how he didn't bow down to nikkas who did have reps. 50 was smart because once he got on, he started recruiting a lot of street nikkas to hold him down. So he had the original G-Unit crew (smurf and them), then he had the 551 nikkas out in Brooklyn, and then he had them America Tower Mac Balla nikkas once he recruited Joffy (Joffy grew up with Lloyd Banks, that's how that relationship with 50 got started). That's why in a lot of times you'd see videos with nikkas with 50 and they all Blooded out. Joffy brought that element to the G-Unit.

Once 50 got on, he started paying like he weighed.

The funny thing is, Nore actually said 50 snitched before lol, but he just never said it publicly. Nore told Tax that he was talking to 50 and let it slip out that Ja was his neighbor and he said shortly after the FBI came to his house asking him where Ja lives. Nore said the FBI told him "50 Cent said you told him Ja lives in this area". But there's no paperwork to substantiate him being a snitch so I can't say that.

The order of protection is real with 50 but it gets hazy. The engineer they had with them filed the order of protection but Yayo was trying to get a lawsuit out of it too until he had to get talked out of it because it would kill what they building. But at the time, they wasn't up like that and Murda Inc was, so Yayo looked at it as a payday.

The amount of times he got shot is fabricated but the incident happened.

Lol zero percent chance. He was a known figure in his hood by too many people. His lore of being this super gangster is fabricated though. He was just a real street nikka.
This all makes sense, I appreciate the clarification!

Fif basically a guy that people know potentially snitched, but there's no paperwork out so it kinda gets to wash away. This makes sense because there's real life situations like this, I can think of someone I knew where it was rumored but there was nothing on paper ever revealed. shyt the Eric Holder/Nipsey thing is another example, a guy with rumors on him so people look at him funny but there's no proof. So this makes sense.

Its not a 1-for-1 comp, they two different people, but there's a lot of similarity between 50 and Wop, a lot of blurry lines and lore. 50 in a number of ways basically the New York Gucci Mane 🤣

Last question, what's Yayo's story? This nikka one of the most dikkriding-est nikkas of all time, been that way for years. Him and Fif grew up together right, so I get the loyalty aspect, but Yayo takes meat riding to epic levels, I don't think I can name another situation like this. This nikka acts like 50 is his father. I know he was in and outta jail alot, was he basically one of Fif's hired guns so he just rides the fukk outta the loyalty angle?
every time I hear a fiddy story I go listen to get rich :mjlol:
Man we were so young when that dropped. Everything about that album and how he demo'd himself presented him as a straight killer, the rawest nikka of all time 🤣...

No doubt bro!

Yeah there's a lot of people like that who ain't take the stand on nikkas or may not have necessarily said something to put someone in outright, but have said things in police presence that would be looked at as fouling out. There's a lot of tough nikkas who have snitched before.

Yayo used to sell crack. He wasn't a tough guy, but he grew up with 50 and was always around. I think he's just super loyal because he knows 50 is quick to cut nikkas off. 50 cut Yayo off before too, but he had to come back and kiss the ring essentially to get back in his good graces. That nikka is a loner at heart. So he don't really care about relationships, so in order to stay around someone like that, you gotta show extreme value or extreme loyalty or both.

Way back. You could wear whatever.
Wasn't really just about your stature. You just had to be able to hold it down. And keep ur sht
Yeah. They used to let you wear jewelry too on the Island back in the day. You really had to be the nikka you said you was.

That was before that Blood shyt took over in the system and nikkas could hide behind that.

Does anyone else think this photo was taken later than 1989?

Maybe around 92-94?

The style of clothes looks to be at least 1991, 1992.

Other than that, I'm grateful 50 became the success he did from that murder attempt.
