50 Cent suggests JAY-Z didn’t want him for the Super Bowl performance.
It’s almost a year since the spectacular Super Bowl halftime show performance, which featured Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Kendrick Lamar, Eminem, Mary J. Blige and 50 Cent. During a recent visit to Big Boy’s Neighborhood, 50 Cent talked about the historic performance and detailed behind-the-scenes tension between him and Jay-Z.
“I got the call before the [Pepsi] ad went up,” he said. “I wasn’t in the ad because of—Jay-Z and them was putting it together. So, I think they still harbor some energy towards me.”
The rapper was then asked if his exclusion from the ad was intentional. “No. I think that they—they were saying that the NFL had some issues with me. I don’t know what those issues are,” responds 50. “What is the issue? You see what I’m sayin’?”
“That’s your big homie,” said Fif. He then remarked about Hov seemingly mirroring the looks of Jean-Michel Basquiat. “You image yourself after a gay painter. Big homie wanna look like a gay painter.”
