West Coast rapper Game might have just fueled the much-needed Verzuz battle between former boss 50 Cent and T.I. The King of the South went online this week to claim the Los Angeles native weighed-in on who has the edge in a hits face-off.
Game x T.I./50 Cent
This week, Tip hit up Instagram with some throwback footage of himself and the ex-Unit member. T.I. took things a step further by claiming Game said he had a better music collection than 50 Cent.
“Aaaahhhh the memories… To whom it may concern… I been outchea gettin ACTIVE‼️Pressing my line against WHOEVER,WHEREVER,ABOUT WHATEVER‼️ Ain’t NO FEAR IN HERE 🖤 I know Y’all youngstas might’ve been too young to remember all the sh*t I’ve done… MY SH*T IN THE RAFTERS THO CUZZ‼️ oh & @losangelesconfidential [Game] told me my catalog was doper than @50cent’s 😈 It’s da KIIIIIIIING B*TCH‼️👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑- drops mic #Day1FrontLiner” -T.I.’s Instagram
High-Key Details
In a recent interview with West Coast radio legend Big Boy, Tip said just because he’s not in the spotlight doesn’t mean his career isn’t one of the greatest ever. T.I. said he’s comparable to hip-hop greats ranging from JAY-Z to G.O.O.D. Music boss Kanye West.
“People don’t realize who I am, bro. I don’t think y’all really know who I am. I don’t think y’all remember what I’ve done, bro. I don’t think y’all know. Just because I don’t jump up on tables and demand you pay attention to me, that don’t mean – you’re gonna have to put mine up there. When you’re talking about careers and legacies, you gotta put me up there. JAY-Z. Gotta go talk to Kanye. Gotta talk to Lil Wayne.”
Wait, There’s More
The Grammy-winning rapper believes Vince Staples‘ Twitter fingers are speaking truths these days. The King of the South recently came forward to salute the fellow hip-hop entertainer for putting major respect on Atlanta rap artists’ names. This week, he went to Instagram to share a public message the California native shared about the A being the home to today’s best rap artists.
“☝🏽Now Cuzz Gets it…..He know somn….. @vincestaples #SouthGotSomethingToSay” -T.I.’s Instagram
Before You Go
This week, T.I. went online to troll his overnight rap rival 50 Cent for trying to use a throwback Crime Stoppers clip to taint his image. T.I. said 50’s trolling tactic ultimately confirmed his declaration for a Verzuz bout with them putting up their best music against each other.
“I’ll take this as an acceptance of this catalog challenge. YEEESSSSSIR-SKI‼️ @verzuztv @therealswizzz @timbaland WE GOT HIM‼️😎HE BIT THE BAIT‼️SET THIS SH*T UP SO I CAN FINALLY SHUT THIS WATERMELON HEAD,INVISIBLE NECK A** N*GGA UP ONCE AND FOR ALL‼️ As far as this clip goes…it’s cute… old,outdated,& in poor taste (much like your catalog @50cent😉)… however I prefer FACTS‼️ AND THE FACT REMAINS….I HAVE NEVER GIVEN ANY INFORMATION TO ANY FORM OF LAW ENFORCEMENT AT ANYTIME IN LIFE TO GET ANYBODY ANY TIME FOR ANY CRIME‼️ Supreme told me to ask @50cent if he can say the same??? 🤔 WELL THATS ALL I HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THAT SO…. let’s set this date & select ya songs off that 1hot album you got & let’s lay your lil overrated, outdated, steroid inflated a** catalog to rest. RIP to @50cent catalog 🙏🏽 I seen you bully all them NY n*ggaz for years… 👑NOT DA KING THO N*GGA👑‼️ “You Got Da Right 1″ #BringMeDaBully😈” -T.I.’s Instagram
(Hot 100)
(Billboard 200)
50 cent: #1 Hits = 6. Top 10 Hits = 19. Songs = 48
T.i.p: #1 Hits = 7. Top 10 Hits = 20. Songs = 70.
I would’ve said Fif but from what I’ve found so far, it’s not looking good for the man.
Tip seems to be right.
TI gots this one hands down, although 50 has the best individual album outta the two… Unfortunately this is about the full body of work and after that 1st album 50 dropped mostly average music at best as his focus was elsewhere which actually paid off for his finances but not for his rap career. Ti has hits off every album he dropped its gots to be TI not even close…
