“His mixtape reflects that,” 50 told XXL. “But boy, that nigga was on point, wasn’t he? He came through there with his shit sharp. It was tight.”

The G-Unit frontman added on, “Look, I don’t have favorite artists, I have favorite moments from artists. Like, ‘Ooh, you ain’t gonna beat him at that, not that, that’s what he do,’ you know what I’m saying? All of us have those moments, I think, but not everybody can appreciate it.”
