What caused the rift between Banks & 50?

Banks is a real dude, so he'd never pull a Game or Buck, but everyone knew that something was wrong when Banks stopped touring with the Unit, and his s*** wasn't being promoted on here.

If you think I'm just talking s***, listen to the latest 50 interview with Cosmic Kev. He's asked if Banks is still with the Unit, and he hesitates then says "Yea." Then asked why he hesitated, 50 says "Well what is he if he's not G-Unit?" And Kev says "nothing," and 50 says "right."

What do you think caused it? I'll give you some of the rumored causes and tell me what you think:

  • 50 treated Banks like s*** again after HMF2 was a commercial flop. (He did this after Rotten Apple, so it's perfectly possible he did it again and that hurt Banks twice as much.)
  • 50 got pissed that Banks was in the studio with Meek Mill. It's true that they were in the studio, but there was also rumors that Banks shook hands with Ross whilst there.
  • Banks is pissed that 50 is dropping a mixtape right when his V6 buzz was taking place

I think it's most likely the first two, as they seemed to be drifting apart prior to the mixtape promotion, (and that just seemed to solidify the tension.)

But yea what do you guys think?

"I turn into a transformer before I turn on 50" Banks "Banks is a sure thing ya'll n***** might blow" 50
It's nothing between them just that Banks is going independent but he is still with the unit

Thank you! Banks is probably upset about some things but 50 needs Banks to do his own thing, blow on his own. If I were 50 I would be pissed at Banks for not holding his own, drake and Nicki both holding it down for wayne. 50 shouldn't even have to work hard right now to release music. The n*ggas around him were needy.

Ppl are real cray... They said before hfm2 that banks was going to be Solo more..50 let's banks do his thang and when Banks wants to put the music out 50 supports it and puts the money behind the music. Banks is established already he need to be on his own creativly now

The lack of support from 50 Cent! HFM2 had some radio play songs.
