50 Cent, Tony Yayo, Lloyd Banks, Kidd Kidd, & Young Buck’s First Interview Since Reuniting At Hot 97’s Summer Jam 2014.
MTV’s Rob Markman gets the chance to sit down with G-Unit, they get straight into it with their past personal problems to resolving the issues. 50 reveals that the ‘Beauty Of Independence’ was 6 of 40 records that they have in the tuck. Yayo gives a few jewels on previous recording sessions with him, Dre and 50 — they also talk about their run on mixtape circuit, how everything was coming organic.
Rob brings up Ja Rule and Freddo Star and as you may expect, 50 had his marvelous comment.
I thought the book was about your life, I guess I’m yo mothfuckin life! – 50 Cent
As the conversation progresses they talk about the records that they’re premiering. 50 talks about G-Unit’s chemistry in the studio compared to the rest of the industry who may email verses all over the place. He also explains the process of an artist going from urban radio to top 40 back to urban.
Of course as expected, Rob and Banks talk about ‘Jackpot’/’Hot Nigga’ and Banks let it be known that he feels no way about the record. He goes on to remind everyone him and the Unit have done it in the past, so why would he feel a way? 50 then goes on to talk on the ‘Changes‘ record and explain a few of the standout lines from the record.
If you haven’t heard yet, get the Beauty Of Independence EP.
