After the release of the Lost Tapes with DJ Drama, 50 Cent spoke with All Hip Hop, and in part two speaks on the younger generation of hip hop artists and why he has nothing to worry about. 

His ten year run of the Forbes list of the of the Wealthiest Hip Hop Artists is why he isn’t sweating. This year he ranked as 5th, not bad for someone who hasn’t released an album in 3 years.

“I been on the Forbes list 10 years straight – consecutively,” he said. “When I came on the Forbes [list] this year, I’m like, ‘Would you look at that? I’m still there.’ I’ve been on a motherfuckin’ lunch break – I’ve been on vacation and I’m still there. Now I’m telling you I’m hustling in a different way and it’s paying off. If you look at it, I ain’t put an album out in three years, and I’m still in the list? Okay, let’s see the other guys do that.”

He then spoke on former G Unit rapper Young Buck who he gave a lot of support to and how he shouldn’t have “bit the hand that feeds.”

“Where I’m from, we got a code of conduct that we follow: don’t bite the hand that feeds you,” he said. “If somebody [wants] to make you a success and comfortable in every way, down to the point that I pay your taxes for you after you [mismanage your money]…and you still [act] disrespectful and say the kind of shit you saying? Niggas is lucky you don’t just kill ‘em. Niggas shot me for $5,000…[I] feel fuckin’ sorry for somebody that has no opportunities; [I] don’t feel sorry for the person who did something stupid.”
