Fiddy, Fiddy, Fiddy.

Now 50 Cent has made claims that he tried to sign Beanie Sigel to the G-Unit Records label, but Roc-A-Fella Records' ex-boss Jay-Z put the kibosh on that. In the same interview, 50 spoke on his response to a diss track by Rick Ross, a remix to Ross' "Baby By Me", stemming from the Miami 'boss' allegedly lying about his job as a correctional officer and 50 taking offense to that.

Beans recently (sort of) went at his former boss because of Jay-Z calling the police on him once at a concert, allegedly, and because of Roc-A-Fella's misgivings on Beanie's contract.

Now, 50 talks to Philadelphia radio station Power 99 FM about his attempt to sign the Broad Street Bully:

"[Beanie Sigel] would have got at least $800,000 at that point to come over. Jay was telling him that he didn't want to lose him. I think Jay and [Diddy] had these feelings toward me at one point I believe...Jay didn't want to do that...I've never seen a bigger fraud in hip-hop [with Rick Ross]. He Just did a remix to 'Baby by Me.' It'll count as a spin for my record. He's an idiot. I'd be upset if my baby's momma was out there. He's broke. His last album sold 300,000 copies. [Triple C's Custom Cars & Cyles] just like sold 4,000 records."

Wait...... who's Triple C? Sorry, I have to get informed........ I'll get back to you.

Anywho, this tit-for-tat crap has gone on for about a couple weeks, as far as I've been researching (or something similar). Enough is enough. They need to straighten this out now. It's like I've been beating a dead horse this entire week.

That's about all there is, for now.

Nuff said.
