Although his last album "Curtis" had a significant decline in sales compared to his past efforts, 50 Cent says he's still number one in the game. [watch here] 50 talked about the current scene in hip hop, how he compares his sales to Lil Wayne and even talked about Jay-Z's staying power.

    Admitting Eminem is above him, 50 talks bout Lil Wayne's sales "What does that mean that you sold that." [watch here] "So you gonna forget that I sold 10 million albums twice -12 million first album, 10 million next one. So what does that one million mean? [watch here] 50 says people get caught in the moment. "What you’re talking about is who is a buzz," he explained. "A buzz is a song. So the next song that I release can turn me back into what you feel like is the hottest thing out here. So I mean if I’m showing you full capability of it than what makes you doubt that."  [watch here]

    Fif went on to give props to Jay-Z for staying relevant. "There’s a respect that is well deserved on Jay-Z’s part because he’s had that cloud come over him and constantly worked his way through it, having so many projects come out and be successful and maintain meaning," he said. [watch here] "There’s a significance in it. Because they go, after countless amounts of hit records, they go ‘You think you can go out and do it again’. Ask me if I think he can do it again, ‘hell yeah,’ cause he did it how many times in front of us. What makes you think he can’t do it again"

50 Cent has been making the media run recently to promote his new "War Angel" mixtape along with his upcoming "Forever King" tape. The G-Unit general plans to release three new mix-LPs before his "Before I Self Destruct" album, infact G-Unit members Tony Yayo ("Swine Flu") and Lloyd Banks ("Happy Birthday") have even released their own mixtapes. [watch here]

In a new interview with his own DJ Whoo Kid, 50 Cent talked about everything from his new mixtapes to the death of Michael Jackson. [watch here] 50 went on to talk about people wearing tight jeans, why he doesn't work with other artists, his past albums and even his partner in crime, Eminem. [watch here]

Of course 50 Cent had to talk about other rappers and beef including the recent beef between Young Jeezy and Gucci Mane [watch here] plus Fif even talked about Internet Thugs.

50 Cent recently weighed in on Dr. Dre’s long-awaited Detox release and offered his take on the album’s ten-year delay.

“Dre is actually working. I heard eight records. When it takes this long, I’ma tell you what I heard. I heard eight and Em said it’s ten. So it’s probably two I didn’t get a chance to hear. I think [the wait] actually builds more pressure. Are you trying to get it or are you trying to scare the sh*t out of ‘em ? I know, its been taking him a long time. [He’s also] so critical of himself at the same time. You know what it is too, I look at it like this.

I love some of the things he thinks that are just ‘good’… I kinda feel like I can gauge what is necessary at this point…When’s the last time you heard a hip-hop record that didn’t have an R&B chorus in the Top 10 ? You understand what I’m saying. It’s changing hip-hop music to the point where it’s necessary for you to have an R&B artist or perform like an R&B artist on the hook…You can tell the deejay to slow down but when motherf*cking [Black Eyed Peas’ ] ‘Boom Boom Pow’ is No. 1, how you gonna tell the artist what to make ?” (The B-Side).

50 Cent is the first artist to pay tribute to Michael Jackson in song since the King of Pop died Thursday. Fif released the first two records from his mixtape Forever King on Friday morning (June 26).

The first, "Respect It or Check It N---a," is vintage hard-core 50. He talks about coming up in the streets as a youngster and how he has evolved, and adds at the end, "Rest in peace to Michael Jackson ... You n---as need me, man. I might have to start moonwalking. A couple of dance moves and sh--, might be some sh-- called 'Billie Jean Is My Lover.' I'm back, n---a!"The second song is called "Where You Are," and it takes directly from Jackson's historic catalog. The G-Unit General raps over the 1972 track "I Wanna Be Where You Are."

In hip-hop, the name on everybody’s lips is “Degrassi” star and Kanye West protégé Drake. The Canadian rapper currently appears on two songs (“Best I Ever Had” and “Every Girl”) in the Billboard Top 10, and he is currently being courted by a number of labels (though he has yet to sign).

A lot of people have said they haven’t seen this sort of buzz since 50 Cent first came up, but 50 himself disagrees.

“I don’t think you can accomplish that right now without finances,” 50 told XXL. “It was impossible for my music to be on the radio when I was coming up. When you hear a song on the radio, it’s being worked.

That song is being worked like he’s on the label. They’ve got the public feeling like it’s just happening.”

50, whose new album Before I Self-Destruct is coming out in September, thinks that Drake may be receiving funds from a label as a way to get him to sign with them.

50 Cent has teamed with Timbaland again on the forthcoming 'Before I Self Destruct' album, and the G-Unit star has talked about his time in the studio with the beatmaker.

The pair collaborated before on 'Ayo Technology', a song which Fiddy reveals was penned originally for Justin Timberlake.

"When me and Timbaland go in, a lot of times it's a compromise," 50 Cent tells MTV News. "He's doing things that's a little different production-wise from what I would usually do."

50 Cent says he's switching his style up to compete with the upcoming rappers. In a new interview the G-Unit general says he's still hungry. "I'm ambitious. I don't think I'll ever achieve enough. I'll always be after something or I'll find a new interest or a new passion to establish something else." [watch here] 50 spoke on talking at the end of records. "That’s when I don’t have to be in song format," 50 says. [watch here] "I can say exactly what I mean, and people are entertained by that too. That’s also a sign that you’re a star." [watch here]

    50 Cent says he wants to bring hardcore hip hop back and a new full G-Unit mixtape is coming out in August. "Sincerely Southside Part 2" is just one of 50's many "writing assignments" he's given himself so that he doesn't overwork his upcoming "Before I Self Destruct" album. "I can write at that pace and achieve what I want," 50 continued. [watch here] "You won’t say there’s a lack of quality in [War Angel]. That’s why I called it an LP instead of a mixtape. They need to hear that."
