The Hip Hop community has had a wide range of reactions to the controversial arrest of Hot 97’s Mr. Cee.
Rap heavyweight 50 Cent weighed in with Miss Info on the public lewdness sex arrest on Hot 97, explaining his relationship with the deejay and record producer.
“It’s only entertaining because he means that much to Hip Hop culture and his association to it,” explained 50 to Miss Info. “I recognize Mr. Cee as the guy who offered us Biggie. So he means that much to the culture. A lot of the kids who hear the radio don’t hear him the same way. I’ve played my albums for Mr. Cee. Every album before it came out to see what he thought. When this type of stuff happens, you keep pushing.”
“When I said, ‘take the Tiger Woods route,’ means…say ‘I retire.’ Why? Why go that route? …I would’ve played the next tour! They can say what they want about it, how about if you say, ‘I’m Rick James, bitch.’ [laughs] How about if you say. ‘I don’t care?’ Who is to judge you other when there is an audience that’s probably one of the strongest audiences if you look at Lady Gaga’s career that says that that’s fine. If you say it’s not fine, then you’re gonna get attacked. You’re gonna write apology notes.”
Miss Info has declined to personally address the matter.
I’d stick my big toe into 50’s butthole and then kick a football down the field.
The homo thugs slowly crawl outta the closet.
Emilo that was the dumbest shit I ever heard, beside your mother giving birth to you.
the death of hip hop comes in the form of being politically correct! fuck that FAG shit you can keep it!
i’d suck his dick, he’s mr. cee for christ’s sake
50 Cent must have been in the same down low circle. Gay-Unit = Gay-Unity!!!!!
NYC is the Meca of Fag-Hop!!!!!!!
We created it you people ruined it…
WOMEN HAVE CALLED 50 SHY BEFORE.
JUST KEEP IT ON THE DOWN LOW!!!!!
SUCKING DICK AND EATING PUSSY!!!!!
50 is NO rap heavyweight DX you really need to get off g-unit and shadys dicks for real dude dropped one great album and one decent one then the rest were shit. Ja Rule didnt go gold until his what? 5th album the rest were platinum thats a rap heavyweight. Ill catch hate for that but I can name a million others that didnt flop as quick as this dude and kept there composure.
For the people that dont like this you precious 50 says he gets high all that time he smokes that good shit…no he dont thats wankster status dude gets called out by game in a radio station and dips thats wankster status he got stabbed by Black Child and puts out a restraining order court appealed or not someone must have snitched that out and snitches hang out with snitches and you wonder why he gott shot nine times no one puts nine bullets in you for nothing like that he must have been on some bitch shit to deserve it.
Good buisness man yes but false personality and a big ego 50 go get fucked by Mr.cee and die…hip-hop no longer wishes your presence here.
you iz a hater, fif is bigger than your fav rapper compare sales, now shut the fuck up bitch, suck a dick and keep your mouth closed.
@propz #whyyoumadtho! lol I think you might be gay….sound like you adore Ja-rule
50 cent is gay
No wonder. 50 isn’t straight either. Only a matter of time, ’til he gets exposed. In the meantime, people can stick to this gangster who got shot and makes the most terrible attempts at crossover songs I’ve ever heard.
so 2 diamond albums is not good enough to be called a heavyweight? if any of you heard power of the dollar you would know grodt is the sequel to that album you CANNOT listen to grodt without power of the dollar its like going from the blueprint straight to bp3 and for his comment on mr cee all he said was cee is a well known dj in rap and if he wasnt this wouldnt be a big deal its about the music so gay or not mr cee is a part of hiphop ask alot of eastcoast artist where would they be without cee playing there records almost every artist on the eastcoast from jay-z to blackmoon onyx and etc has played a new song on the mr cee show to be heard by the masses.it seems like a few of you guys are pros on gayness lmaoooooooo
there not diamond bitch quit makin shit up
Their is a slight difference. There are worlds between Jay & 50 in terms of talent. Jay actually makes intelligent music with a poppy feel, while 50 makes music for dumb people at the age of 12 who think it’s cool to pose shirtless on a cover. Jay-Z SHITS on 50 in EVERY aspect of rapping. He has wordplays and lines 50 couldn’t think of in 1000 years with the help of 10 dictionaries. He is one of the best flowers of all time, who can adapt every style instead of 50’s monotone talking-like rap.
50 a real nig
a real gay nigga
50 cent is speaking on some shit that u really cant justify or explain .because if that was ja rule geting caught up with a dude he would of been the first to tweet and comment.i hate fake ass niggas,they say shit in the interest of someone else or they make sly ass comments when they think shit is safe or there cool with a faction when they should just speak there mind and the truth that was some fag shit.
Why everybody want 50’s on opinion on everything??? What’s next??? 50’s opinion on the mortgage crisis.
real shit.speak ya mind.he wanted to come at ja any way.but when he gets on hot 97 for a interview which is mr cee employer and fuckmaster flexs good friend and 50 is cool with fuckboy flex he keeps it kosher with his comments not like his other interviews were hes personally attacking fat joe or ja rule or shyne or whoever.fake fucks
it’s his life, love it or hate it that’s the way he is..
Fifty is right when he says that doesn’t interfer to what he brought us in hip-hop.
real talk, 50 is right. its about attitude and how its done. look at lil wayne and birdman
50 cent is not a straight guy probably gay or both dick monger and pussy fucker
well we all know its all politics, but at the same time, what he said was real, but would he have said that for anybody? cuz he was trying to say kanye was gay one while back boss thug….who the fuck cares who is gay nowadays, though, seriously? i just hope the hiphop community can stop with the make believe. we are human just like the rest of society. we aren’t some hardcore beings that don’t have feelings, or can’t be gay. we are all humans, boss thug. if you aren’t, then don’t be gay. if you are, be proud of it. i have a friend right now, who just got married, and i think he wants to come out. i’ve known him for most of my life and he always was a little feminine. but he was cool with everybody, and still is. but now he says he is totally unhappy in his marriage, and he….well, lets just say, he’s basically telling me in so many words he might be gay. i don’t care. but i want my boy to be happy in his own skin. it’s called reality, lets get it together.
I feel you. Like most people say, we all got gay cousins or people we grew up with or whatever, BUT it’s gon be on them to stand up for that shit and suffer the consequences.
Just like Mister Cee went on the radio talking about “haters” and all that shit blah, blah, blah, same with Flex. They lashing out acting all angry at the people. That’s not helping.
I hate when gay people compare they situation to Black people’s. But it’s a lot of Black people who stood up and faced bullets, ropes, dogs, water hoses and all that…
these gay niggas ain’t finna face none of that. They just gon face some laughter, embarrassment, etc. Mister Cee should take this as the chance to be an example who can try to get that shit poppin. Otherwise they should stop complainin when people laughin and talkin about ’em.
Niggas like Kanye with all that sneaky tryin to tell people to accept gay people shit. Bring your ass out the closet and stop tryin to sneak and maybe people will lighten up on it–or else stop complaining about discrimination
call me crazy but i dont think ye is gay, just different and man enough to be himself regardless of what others say. also the way you talked about gay ppl’s :situation” in comparison to black ppls situation seem to belittle what gays have gone through. no i am not saying the situations/circumstances are the same – they are completely different, but if you look at the histroy of violence against gay ppl it has been much more than laughing ang embarassment. many gay ppl have lost their lives just bc of their lifestyle whether that lifestyle was choice or not. to be clear i am not saying th eblack and gay struggle are the same, im saying gay pplz fight for equal rights does not have to be denigrated when talking about the two. after all its just human beings fighting for the right to be treated the same as other human beings despite pplz personal feelings/beliefs

@SoulutionCrew
damn fif always got something to say bout something.
man, i dont even listen to 50, but he didn’t say anything fucked up in this interview…i don’t know how some of yall are callin him gay or whatever bcuz of what he said…all he said was Mr. Cee is a respected guy in hip hop and that artists cant just talk shit and run their mouth about this kind of incident because they are famous and in public, it can fuck up their money…that shit is true, you guys are trippin…
lets say some rapper starts clownin Mr. Cee publicly over this shit, not an underground head, someone like Wayne or someone else really famous like 50 was talkin about…if they start crackin on him cuz of the gay stuff and what they say goes public, a lot of people will be upset with them…that could be potential cd buyers, itunes downloaders, interviewers, editors, critics, hollywood gossip/news people, radio personalities, executives or whoever…that’s all money…when you’re mainstream you gotta watch what you say because you never know who’s listening…Mr. Cee is pretty much toast, at least his reputation anyway, but for other celebrities it’s better for them to just keep it movin and not get caught talkin shit because it will make them look homophobic/unproffesional…
I don’t like his music, but I respect his hustle and give him props for having this opinion on the situation.
50 THE FAGGOT CENT!!! NO WONDER THE GROUP HAD 3 MEN IN IT!!!!! SMH
50, BANKS AND YOYO SITTING IN A TREE GAY AS CAN BE!!!..
NYC IS THE FAG-MECA OF GAY-HOP!!!!!
Kill yo self, bro.
You gotta be kidding me….gtfoh yo wtf are u doing on a hip hop site if u gonna call it gay hop or say that NYC is the gay-mecca…kill yourself pussy.
Check out what the quier just wrote, scandalous bastard!
He is kinda right about nyc though…Dudes up there look prettier than most of the women. Metrosexual feminem types.
Frank Eaton has got to be one of the gayest names ive ever heard
unreleased documentary era 50 Cent/Game DC love Thing.
http://www.zshare.net/audio/887336583c6cb06b/
To be real…50 Cent is not gay BECAUSE he defended Mister Cee…that don’t prove nothin…BUT…
if you look at the man’s history and current behavior, it’s a lot of suspect things and dude is probably gay. His relationship with Floyd Mayweather (another suspect acting guy who never has women around him), those real gay lookin pictures from a few years back where he was dressed in white with the scarf blowing in the wind, an interview clip with G-Unit where he was clownin Lloyd Banks for fuckin women in every city they go to–saying he should feel more special than to do that, etc.
I just named a few, but anybody who really follow hip-hop and have followed 50 can think back and see some red flags after you get past the built-ass-nigga/thug shit.
Man, what’s with all the faggot azz comments here regarding 50? R u guyz getting paid for that gay shit? lmao. Unless it’s like one fuckin homo doin it or sum shit.. haha.
yeah im pretty sure its just the one stan talking shit
Some of Yall are retarded bastards with this “he’s fake cuz he would’ve went at Ja and other niggaz if they were gay.” Fif made it clear that it was because of Cee’s contribution to hip hop, i.e. Biggie, is the reason he’s not goin in on him. And why he can make the comments he did. What did Ja really contribute to hip hop besides one good album? Did he introduce us to the G.O.A.T? you may not agree wit Cee’s lifestyle, but u gotta respect the man who brought us a man who was a great on this thing we claim to love. Hip hop. Gay or not.
IF this was about a person 50 didn’t care about he would have yelled “faggot” from the highest tower.
Now that this fuckery involves someone he is close to he defends and side steps the issue.
It just goes to show that HipHop Artists don’t really give a damn or have a specific opinion about someones sexual preference.
But seriously getting head from a tranny..dayumm! lulz.

hahaha ^^^Somebody^^^^ is super drove at these comments, lol
Yao quit clowning around. You know Oprah, Jay-Z, Diddy, Rozay, Game & Buck, Styles P, Nas, Camron, Fat Joe, Cash Money and everybody else in the industry dislikes this clown. Buck has a stalker.
bottom line is that the comment is gay as hell and even (most but not all obviously) 50 fan know it too.
WHEN YAYO GOT OUT OF THE PENITENTIARY HIS FIRST SINGLE WAS “So Seductive”!!!
HAHAHAA I CAN’T MAKE THIS SHIT UP!!!!! WHAT THE FUCK WAS YOU DOING IN THE PEN NIGGA???? (MISS CEES)
AND EVERYBODY KNOWS THAT BANKS IS MAKING GAY PORN ON THE SIDE!!!!
went had two straight albums none of them went platinum,rebirth,600+,iam not a human being 800+,when fifty was hot he used to go diamond and receive world music awards plenty of time,ross is hot he can’t even have a grammy nomination,it’s hot to me.i support fif’s standpoint on mr cee’s situation.if he say a single about the gays he will ruin his hollywood run along with his career.
Lil Wayne sold gold on both albums and went platinum for the year!! I think he was also in Rikers Island that year too if I am not mistaken. How can you promotes an album from jail?????
50 sold albums because of beefs and 9 bullet holes!! That lame couldn’t ever rap. That is why his career is falling off a cliff right now. That and no Gay-Unit national love anymore!!! Game and Buck helped 50 sale on the west coast and down south. They were good for marketing.
get ur facts straight anonymous… first of all fiftys career isnt fallin off a cliff right now…. hes top five in money out of anybody in the game right now he can pretty much do or say nething he wants right now… and how the hell did game help 50 sell when 50 pretty much brought game into the industry… no disrespect to game i like his music but u got no clue wat ur talkin about.
Get your facts straight!!! Diddy is a top earner but his rap career isn’t on top anymore. Dre. has more money than fif. 50 made that money from water not hip-hop music!!!!! Money & music to different things!!!!!! 50’s career is flopped and his label signed to EMI.
Game helped market 50 Cent to the West Coast because all his earlier music was only heard by NYC… Nobody outside of the north knew him.
Game didn’t help 50 sell shit besides Game’s albums…50’s first two albums sold crazy and Game had NOTHING to do with that….after that 50 sold less and less…as for 50’s first two albums, GRODT there was no Game yet, and when “The Massacre” came out Game only had one album out that didn’t even sell close to as much as 50’s album…
So how u figure Game helped 50 market anything? When 50 actually did better business before Game had any real impact…
get ur facts straight, I don’t even really like 50 but it aint cool to just lie cuz you don’t like him…
Typical 50. Talking a whole bunch of nothing. That second paragraph was pointless. He might as well have made baby sounds. That would’ve made more sense.
$WonDough$ aint with that bawty boy shit
say what u want but 50 gay…and im not hatin on him or attacking him even though some may view it that way. i actually agree with his statements i just think he got alittle sugar n the the tank
Mister Cee, Mister Cee. Tsk, tsk, tsk. Put down the cock and step out of the vehicle.
I knew 50Cent would end up with Mr. Cee(mon) in his mouth..
firstly. okay 50, now how do you feel about Obama’s progress on america? wait, you you gonna vote for next? can you even vote? okay how do you feel about gays? oh well if you were governer… who the fuck cares? this nigga a rapper not a senator. secondly. how come dumb ass niggas gotta bring uo game and buck for 50? game went to g-unit cuz Dre said “go and itll help you sell” and game thought “if you say so Dre, g-unit is making shit these days” and Buck was a opening act. 50 cent said “come rap for me, ill make you rich” if we learned anything from 50 it should be, dont take the advice of someone who cant help themselfs. why would you go to a homeless dude for housing info? and thirdly. fuck who cares how much money hes worth. he got a 100 mill from Vitamin water. which means musically he aint worth the shit he claims to be. and how much did he make in 2010? who cares how much he’s “worth” cuz if so, Jay-Z is making way less then he should
Illuminati flaming faggots are payed to program you to to be gay.
Yep 50’s gay self is just doing his job
“there not diamond bitch quit makin shit up”
GET RICH JUST SOLD 8MIL ALONE IN THE U.S THIS YEAR LMAOOOO KNOW YOUR FACTS BEFORE YOU POST
The Massacre has been certified five times platinum by the RIAA and has sold 11 million copies worldwide grodt 15mil worlwide 26mil sold 2fuckin albums lmaoooo
what the fuck was 50 talkin bout? especially in that 2nd quote.
50 looks gay in that picture.
50 cent is gay he always uses eyeshadow. So its obvious he’s gay
I bet that all this gay comments are made by the same hater
If they are gay, what the fuck is young money? they have a lot of guys so that means they are all gay?
c’mon grow the fuck up
ok wayne went in jail long after rebirth was released,even with an eminem featured single he can’t go platinum,iam not calling that hot,now let’s clear this shit up,over the past for years, only jay_z outshined fifty in terms of money according to forbes.

musically jay is bigger than fifty but overall fif is bigger than him,fif is the most known hiphop artist,gunit is the most known records label,there’s nowhere in the world if you scream gggggggggg unit that the people won’t know you are talking 50,grodt was and still is one of the best albums ever released in the history of hip hop,the album that impacted the game to the utmost,fifty cent is needed more in the entertainment industry than all other niggas hate it or love it it’s the fact.nigga has accomplished what has taken other 2decades or more to achieve.if we are talking about music,he has put out 14 good tracks out for free not mentioning some good ass tracks he featured on ,such as,raid ft pusha T,RECENTLY FT GUCCI,HATERS FT TONY YAYO,ROSCOE DASH,SHAWTY LO.I KNOW HE’S AN OUTSPOKEN DUDE BUT I THINK HE DESERVES HIS CREDIT IN THE BUSINESS.
