Click image to watch 50 Cent interview with MTV
If you’ve seen the infamous picture of 50 Cent confronting Steve Stoute at Madison Square Garden recently, you would know it spoke a thousand words. Last night, 50 Cent sat down with MTV during a special Sirius XM town hall meeting and spoke on that exact occurrence. He paraphrased what he told Steve in that exact shot, except it was a bit more PG than what probably happened.
Fif also revealed that Stoute did not want him to sign with Eminem and Shady/Aftermath back in the day, somehow finding him at the Interscope offices before he went up to meet with Em. As you can gather through history, 50 didn’t take his advice and signed with him anyway, becoming the biggest rapper on the planet after the release of Get Rich Or Die Trying. He made the right decision.
Peep an excerpt of Curtis’ talk with Rob Markman below and if you want to catch more of their interview, they will be airing more segments on MTV RapFix Live tomorrow.
