50 Cent Talks About Avoiding Diddyâs Parties
50 Cent was asked during the interview about why he has avoided going to one of Diddyâs parties, explaining that Diddy once invited him on a shopping trip, which he found strange. He felt uncomfortable with the energy and decided to steer clear. According to The Hollywood Reporter, he said âHe asked to take me shopping. I thought that was the weirdest sâ in the world because that might be something that a man says to a woman. And Iâm just like, âNaw, Iâm not fâing with this weird energy or weird sâ,â coming off the way he was just moving. From that, I wasnât comfortable around him.â

When asked about his relationship with Diddy, 50 Cent clarified that their interactions were strictly professional, lacking any genuine friendship. He recalled that Jennifer Lopez was the one who initially suggested that Diddy collaborate with him. 50 Cent said that he never socialized with Diddy outside of work, as he believed Diddy often took undue credit for othersâ creative efforts.
He was quoted as saying: âIt was mostly work. I wouldnât call it a friendship because there wouldnât be disappointment between us if we didnât speak to each other. Thereâs points that we worked together. Jennifer Lopez actually told him he should work with me as [a] songwriter in the beginning. And I was around at the early stages, and he could have done my record deal at that point.â He went on to say, âI didnât ever party or hang out with him. Puff is a businessperson; when [people call him] a producer, I see people that were taken advantage of, who produced things that he took from them. He got the credit. Heâs not a producer. Heâs been able to take advantage of the business and the creatives in it. I donât have any interest in doing that. I actually fall under the creative. So I just didnât take to hanging out with that.

50 Cent also discussed his involvement in the Super Bowl performance, revealing that despite tensions with Jay-Z and Roc Nation, he was included because Eminem insisted on having him there. Eminem made it clear he wouldnât perform without 50 Cent, leading to his surprise appearance. He said âRoc Nation. Yeah, they didnât want me there. Eminem wouldnât do it without me. Thatâs how I ended up on the show because he was not coming if I didnât do it. When that happens, you go, âDamn, so you just lost Eminem because you didnât bring 50? Damn. All right. Bring 50 then.â But if it was up to them, they would not have me there. Iâm the surprise. Iâm not on the bill at all. But they couldnât get Em to do it without me.â
