G-Unit head 50 Cent rarely admits his weaknesses but the platinum-selling rap star has now pointed out past attempts to view people as friends rather than enemies.
Immediately following his friends/enemies tweet, Fif acknowledged today is rap mogul Jay-Z‘s 43rd birthday.
“My enemies are just enemies. I have mistaked them for friends in the past but there just enemies. SMSaudio,” he tweeted Tuesday (December 4).

Recently, 50 cut his business ties with boxing champion Floyd Mayweather, Jr.‘s The Money Team promotional company.
Rumors are flying hot and heavy that the joint venture into boxing promotion called TMT (The Money Team), headed up by pound-for-pound boxing king Floyd Mayweather Jr. and rapper 50 Cent, is already kaput. The Ring magazine reports that Australian featherweight fighter Billy Dib, recently signed by TMT, has had his contract folded into the operations of the still operating Mayweather Promotions. The Ring also says that a source close to the rap superstar indicates that 50 Cent is “no longer involved in boxing.” (Boxing Insider)
Last week, Fif explained why he took shots at former G-Unit members Game and Young Buck on his new “My Life” single.
“To begin, that record was recorded two years ago. These things are monumental moments in my experience, in music culture. Period. Of course it was Game first to decide to go left. He had help, me and [his ex-manager] Jimmy never got along. Jimmy Henchman was managing him at the time to go left. … In Game’s case, there is absolutely no malice in my heart towards him. I’d like to see him do whatever he can do at this point. And Buck, I think that’s over, I think that’s done. I think his career is finished. It’s because, like his temperament, right now he’s in jail but knowing who he is the entire time he’s been around, I don’t think he has what it takes to recover.” (“Big Boy’s Neighborhood”)
Despite his explanation, Game warned Fif about possible repercussions a few days prior.
“Maybe he got something he wants to tell us, you know, about his secret life,” Game said in response to 50’s “My Life” reference. “Ain’t nobody worried about 50. Let’s just ask the people. That’s really the best he can do. You know what I’m saying? Buck is in jail, his situation is that, he can’t defend himself from there. … Every now and again, you get these zombie movies where no matter how many times you shoot them, they keep [getting back up]. … My last freestyle was probably ‘500 Bars’ and like 26 minutes long. The freestyle that killed G-Unit, the whole staff, record label, the clothes is ‘300 Bars’ and I might have to go and double that up and just really say everything I want to say. There’s more to say.” (Power 106)
