if you make money on the streets you can go from having it all...to broke again real fast.So he didn't have a car and lived in his grandma's basement.When did all the balling start??? or was he just a broke ass dope dealer that sold nickels and dimes.
He recorded it for a DJ Self mixtape.
He quit selling drugs when he started rapping and went broke.. then got shot when things picked upSo he didn't have a car and lived in his grandma's basement.
Yeah he spoke about this in his book. Some old nikka got mad over a dice game and 50 aired out the building. Wild nikkaI remember this freestyle word 4 word and I'm a die hard Wu Tang fan
Edit: The treble is too high on this version, Tony Yayo is in the background IIRC
Edit 2: nikkaz in the comment section.
"my late step dad saw him in wueen b4 he blew up and said he raced tony yayo...told me 50 came to the barbershop one day and nikkaz came by shooting at him and lit the building up and 50 was the only one to shoot back....he is forever a Queens legend"
I fukked up. I read it wrong. Watching the video then going to the comment, I read it as Wu retaliating by shooting at 50 while he was in a barbershop
Even the most gangsta rappers keep their beefs to individuals. 50 was just coming with the blanket disrespect "latin kings don't like me I don't care, we don't like that mira mira bullshyt around here"
50 really is one of the very few who lived exactly what he raps, hes an attention whore but he's still one of the realist the rap game has seen50 is a different breed.
On his come up he dissed whole hoods, races, gangs
