Looking back, what in the hell was 50 thinking when he gave Shawty Lo that deal?

He tried to tap into a southern market that he doesn't understand and doesn't fukk him. No one wants to rep G-Unit and do songs with 50 so it would take him falling back and he doesn't want to do that.

All the talent in the Atl area and this nikka signs Shawty Lo :wtf:
That nikka Lo ain't did a got damn thing since that deal. 50 needs some better people around him. And the fukk is a Kid Kid? :dahell: 50 must really suck when it comes to talent evaluating. At least he made that one good move in bringing on Buck though. :ld:






Kidd Kidd is the dude from the Sqad Mixtapes bruh...

Shawty Lo was top 5 in the rap game at one point a few years ago, 50 signed him too late

When you are rich and a businessman, you have to do your research and make moves that will be profitable to you. Him signing Shawty Lo showed me that his business sense was very limited.

50 was doing a lot of unnecessary things at one point, mainly signing, the nikka should've stopped at olivia :upsetfavre: the MOP, mobb deep, spider loc, 40 glocc, shawty lo weed carrier positions were too much
