Jay-Z vs. Nas, 50 Cent vs. Ja Rule, Nas collaborates with Ja Rule, Jay-Z tours with 50 Cent. To make things more interesting, Nas and 50 Cent are longtime friends, or associates at least. 50 Cent was actually there when Nas recorded “The World Is Yours” from his classic “Illmatic.” According to Mr. Conaway at hiphopsite, 50 Cent may have also been in the studio for “Ether” as well.
So their alliances with each other’s enemies did not help matters, and now that 50 is hip-hop’s newest superstar I’m sure the ego’s are bound to clash. “Now Nas loves the kids, 50 on that killer shit,” 50 spits on G-Unit’s “Gangsta Shit.” Apparently, he also takes some subliminal shots at Nas on a new Whoo Kid mixtape. Can’t forget to mention, Nas’ brother Jungle has made his remarks towards 50 and word is 50 has a track ready for him (according to hiphopsite again).
