Rappers to collab on 50 Cent "Farewell" Album?
NEW YORK- After the dismal first week sales performance of his latest release, former multiplatinum artist 50 Cent may be thought of to be down and out. As a result, several of 50's "enemies" have come together to collaborate on what may be an all-star filled tribute album to air out greivances, reflect on 50's career and bid him a final farewell into obscurity.
50's competitive & abrasive nature alienated him from much of the hip hop community. "The ***** couldn't let nobody eat man. It was like if you had any kinda clout, and you wasn't riding for the Unit you had to go," Rick Ross told us at a Chinese buffet in midtown Manhattan. "When the ***** projections came out, me and Triple C's was just laughing. How you gonna clown *****s for sales when you doin Nelly numbers?"
Within the industry as well as on various blogs and messageboards, a shift was clear. 50's somber demeanor on his routine promotional appearance on 106 and Park earlier this week showed a man defeated by confusion & disappointment. Other interviews showed 50 as unapologetic, deflecting the blame to internet leaks and high level marketing & product placement errors. It was all a significant change from the jovial, condescending demeanor 50 had during an interview on a Connecticut radio show, sarcastically crying over the disappointing first week sales of Triple C's (Rick Ross' group) debut album.
Ross' came up with the idea during an unexpected meeting with another Miami rapper, Fat Joe. "I had seen him maybe that Friday at this buffet I be at in Miami. We got to choppin it up, and he was sayin how *****s need to come together on some 'Goodbye Curtis' s***. A few texts and phone calls later and it was on."
Ross revealed that he already has confirmed appearances from the likes of Kanye, Game, Raekwon, Lil Kim, Fat Joe, Lil Wayne, Ja Rule, The L.O.X. and several other hip hop heavyweights who were the subjects of 50's seemingly random attacks. He even hinted at a possible appearance from hip hop legends Nas and Jay-Z. "My man Kanye told Jay about it, and he said Jay sounded real interested. It's gonna be crazy, all these bosses- Wayne, Kanye, Jay, me all on some rap we are the world ****."
Ross, nor other sources could not confirm or deny Nas would be on, though when we contacted him he had this to say: "Yea I helped duke get in the game. It was crazy how he flipped on *****s. Jay called me- I had just moved into this new crib so I ain't know the number, matter fact I ain't even give it out yet- but yea we talked about it and might do something. I dunno. He supposed to get back from Europe like next week."
Regardless, the buzz surrounding the project is growing, and Ross hopes to have the album done by the end of the year. "I got all the pieces in place. We got the Justice League on, we got some New York producers, studio time and everything. I think it's safe to say I'm in a real good creative space right now," he says with a mischievous grin.

"Niggas jumped me cuz they couldnt beat me one on one" -50
Even if this bs was true... It would be the biggest mistake Rick Ross or anybody could do. It would just get Fif fired up again ... and its not like we havent seen what happends when the dude gets angry.
He f***** up BISD sales because he thought his movie was going to make people buy the album ... I guess the idiots that run around him failed to tell him that downloading a movie is just as easy as downloading an album.
Rick Ross could put out another good album ... but 50 isnt going to stop s******* on him until the dude ends up like Fat Joe.
We all seen the difference in responses 50 and Ross get... look at the promo tours at Best Buy... everywhere 50 went ... crowds were rushing to see him. For Rick Ross 5 people showed up.
People are fascinated with 50. and they like Rick Ross' music... so the second Rick Ross puts out something that isnt straight fire ... he's finished(CCC's)

Actually the rumor is 50 Cent put this fake article out.
Reason they say it was him is that he wants to bait them into actually doing it(BEFORE I SELF DESTRUCT) get it? LOL
Regardless it's hilarious.
Miami rapper Fat Joe? LOL
Jay Z/Nas Ether reference in terms of calling him without him knowing the number.

Actually at other sites people are seeing the thread in a different way. As a joke on rappers and people getting all emotional at 50's current stand(the jabs at other rappers in the article is proof enough).
50 just settled a multi-million dollar lawsuit with Taco Bell. He's more than resting easy.
Anyways........back to our original intent being the street team.
