The Game Says 50 Cent Is Not Responsible For His Career Blowing Up

The Game has denied claims that 50 Cent blew his career up.

“I was in a group with those n*ggas, but I wasn’t breaking peanut butter jelly sandwiches in half with [them]. I didn’t see them n-ggs until it was time to work. A lot of people like, ‘N*gga, 50 put you on.’ No, 50 did not put me on,” he says.

“People don’t understand that. At that time in L.A., I was it. I was the n*gga. That’s why Jimmy [Iovine] took me and told 50 he was putting me in G-Unit. And 50 accepted it because my name was ringing bells in the streets of Hip Hop.”
