50 Cent warns Ye about recent controversies
50 Cent has responded to Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, who recently called him "one of my favorite people." Ye made this comment in a post on social media, expressing his belief that 50 Cent could help bring back Black economic independence. Despite the praise, 50 Cent was cautious about aligning himself with Ye, who has faced backlash for his controversial remarks. In a response on Instagram, he said, “Damn it Ye ya dangerous right now, what you say about the kids man.” Fans reacted to their exchange, with some commenting on how 50 Cent seemed to want to distance himself from Ye’s current issues. Many noted that 50 was the only one not drawn into drama with Ye this week. In past interviews, 50 Cent acknowledged Ye's struggles but praised his resilience. He highlighted Ye's ability to succeed despite personal tragedies, referencing the passing of his mother. 50 Cent and Ye have a long history in hip-hop, including their famous sales competition in 2007, which marked a significant moment in the music industry. They celebrated each other's success while maintaining a friendly rivalry. In addition, rapper Cardi B responded to Ye’s comments about the female rap hierarchy. He suggested that Megan Thee Stallion had replaced her in popularity. Cardi countered by stating she has been a consistent topic and has maintained a loyal fanbase, despite not releasing a new album for several years. Ye has recently been in the news for his controversial statements. Despite the negative attention, he released a new album called Bully on March 19, which features a short film starring his son.
