50 Cent Says He and Jay-Z Aren’t Friends

While Jay-Z and Kanye spend long hours working on the “Watch The Throne” album, 50 Cent on the other hand is revealing things that involve the greatest hip-hop mogul. On an interview with MTV, 50 Cent cleared up the rumor that he and Jay-Z are good friends. Despite the fact that he has collaborated with Jay and even appeared at his concerts, 50 Cent says, “We don’t have those kinds of relationships. These people are people I associate with. We are in the same business. We are not necessarily friends. We don’t call each other for no reason.” He went on to say that they don’t have anything against each other, and they’ll continue to use each other for creative energy. Don’t hold your breath on an upcoming duo between the two, because 50 Cent says there’s a reason why they don’t happen, stating they “don’t pick up the phone and call”.

Following Jay and Eminem’s opening night of their “Home And Home” tour at Detroit’s Comerica Park, 50 Cent and Jay-Z headed their beef backstage after the two ran into each other.

“We got a chance to kick it for a minute,” 50 Cent told MTV News. “I know people were interested in what that conversation was like. But they can ask Jay-Z. I take people’s actions as if it’s genuinely how they feel. I can only use what I saw you do as if that’s what you meant. I can’t understand what your motivation was prior to that.”
