50 Cent Says He Can’t Comprehend Chris Lighty’s Death, Says He Didn’t Owe Money

    As much as Chris Lighty’s suicide has shocked the Hip Hop community as a whole, perhaps no one was more stunned that 50 Cent.

    “I’ve worked with Chris the entire time,” said 50 in an interview with Hot 97’s Angie Martinez and DJ Enuff. “Since the actual mixtape run. Everything,” added Fif, referring to his now-legendary takeover of Hip Hop in the early 2000s aided greatly by a slew of memorable mixtapes.

    50 elaborated, explaining how Lighty’s death made no sense to him. “I actually can’t wrap the idea around my head of him shooting himself,” said 50. “I don’t have all of the information, so I don’t want to point or say anything other than what’s being said publicly but I don’t believe that. Just ’cause of my personal interactions with him, he never gave any indication that was even possible.”

    50 also debunked reports that Lighty had a $5 million debt.

    “The first thing I see is he owes $5 million. And he doesn’t owe $5 million,” explained 50. “I’m sure he doesn’t actually owe $300,000, and he wasn’t in a hurry to pay. It’s not like vacation, and that there was a point vacation was being missed. That lifestyle is like ‘Oh, I’ll get to that when I get to that.’ And away from that, when the $5 million bill was there, I gave him a million dollars. I loaned him a million dollars, and he paid me back, and the interest on that was another $200,000. So take that five, turn that into 6.2 and then it’s down to 300,000 and there’s no reason to do that over money. At that point you done took care of all of your bills. So none of it made any sense to me.”

    1. You’re done Curtis, and you know it. “GFID” is GOLD nicca, solid GOLD. “Street King Immortal”- 20.000 copies first week.

      1. No one gives a fuck about your record sales projections..lol, go listen to some Justin Bieber if all you care about is sales..I guarantee you he sales more than the Triple Cs first album..hahaha..

        @newtracksdaily

      2. first off lol @ the 50 stans. second, lmao @ you saying ross’ worst album is albums of the year. Cruel Summer is better, and Life is Good is better. and those are only the albums that have already came out

      3. You spelled “Welcome to Our House wrong. Perhaps you meant Food and Liquor 2? maybe even Cruel Summer? Tyler the Creators Wolf?

      4. Hop off Ross’ dick. Let me tell you why your fat fuck is a sad excuse of a rapper. I don’t know what the fuck he even talks about in his songs, and that’s because he has no subject material in his songs. “Red bottoms, maybachs and food”, that’s all he fucking talks about and somehow you delusional “Hip hop fans” take it in and dick ride so hard that I find it hard to believe you guys actually know true hip hop. This fucker thinks he’s the reincarnation of Biggie, that’s some sad shit. Songs like 911, Hold me Back, MC Hammer, BMF, all sound the same. The reason this last album did well was because you Rick Ross fanboys are so brainwashed. GFID wasn’t even that great, it sounded exactly like his previous albums, the only good thing on there was the justice league production, but the lyrics were boring as ever because Ross hasn’t said anything that we haven’t already heard. But I’ll give you something that most of these people haven’t heard, how come you didn’t mention that Triple C’s only sold like 4000 copies first week of their album? Or that no one who doesn’t actually study the Hip Hop industry know anyone in MMG other than Ross, Mill and Wale? Not to mention their cypher was fucking weak! Only Wale is nice in that bunch of nobodies. No one knows who Gunplay is, no one is fucking with Masspike Miles, nor Omarion anymore. Ain’t no one know who Stalley is, Rockie Fresh is wack as hell, and so is French Montana, and no one hears about Magazeen. So take your dickriding ass somewhere else, 50 doesn’t need to rely on album sales, he has a net worth that’s like 5 times greater than that of Ross and his whole label combined. I ain’t no 50 fan, he’s a cool and smart dude, but I give credit where its due.
        This is why hip hop has fallen, and there are few greats left that can help it. Real rappers like Nas, like Lupe, Eminem may have changed his sound a bit, but the dude still has crazy lyrics and has made a name for himself, Kendrick Lamar is dope as hell, so is J. Cole, those are rappers, not some fake cocky lying ass C.O. he may have more money that I will ever have in my life, but I can be happy knowing that I’m not fake nor cocky.

    2. The run is over fif…It was a long tumble from the top..All the money and the world and completely irrelevant outside of his stans…

    3. these computer geeks are so sad do your parents know what your doing in your bedroom

      on the real something strange about this whole situation with chris

    4. Ja rule shut this nigga 50 down!! When ja get outta jail niggaz gonna feel his rath like when pac got released to death row.

    5. It’s possible Lighty owed somebody alot of money and the obvious happened. It’s all a mute point now, so 50 should just be quiet. Clearly Lighty wasn’t telling him everything about what was going on in his life, and there was a reason for that. It was none of Fif’s business.

    6. You all are crazy… 50 is speaking on his friend/business partners life and everyone comments about record sales and relevance in Hip Hop. Not of that ish even matters… Chris Lighty’s wife even said he didn’t owe 5mil (it was already paid off) A great man in Hip Hop… a father of 2 kids just died. 50 Cent was great.. sold millions of records. Every artist in rap that has a nice ‘run’ eventualy falls off and fans turn and hate. Rick Ross will suffer the same fate. Just like Ja Rule did.. just like T-Pain did.. just like LL Cool J did (with his music)

    7. “I loaned him a million”…that’s nobody business but your’s and the deceased’s…..boy this nigga here…..always running his fucking mouth…..this dude has never uttered the words “no comment”…….I hate everything this nigga does and but most importantly, how he does it…..Shut the fuck up and let the man rest in peace, faggot….geez…anything for some free pub, even discussing a dead man’s business affairs. 50 Cent absolutely disgusts me……

    8. f you think about it, all of your favorite rappers are gay.

      *Jay-Z’s best friends are gay
      *Kanye West wears women’s clothes
      *Lil Wayne kisses men on the lips and wears lepoard print jeggings
      *Eminem hates women
      *T.I. and DMX kept going back to jail (they must love the prison sex)
      *Drake and Big Sean are closet homosexuals
      *Rick Ross and DJ Khaled are always together (they’re life partners)
      *Nas talked a lot of homo shit about Jay-Z on Ether (stalking Jay?)
      *Ludacris is Bieber’s butt buddy
      *Tupac was a ballerina as a teenager
      *Biggie talked about sucking a man’s dick (on Me And My Bitch)
      *Dr Dre wore some suspicious wardrobe in is time in the World Class Wreckin Crew

      *Snoop Dogg and Wiz Khalifa are weed (butt) buddies *2Chainz dickrides Kanye West (literally…)
      *J Cole dickrides Jay-Z (literally…)
      *Kendrick Lamar dickrides Dr Dre(literally…) and has a gay voice
      *Diddy fucked every artist in the business (figuratively and literally)
      *Young Jeezy’s voice is fucked up (from sucking too much cock) and his nickname is Jizzle (meaning he loves it when it rain jizz all over him)
      *50 Cent is super hyper-masculine (meaning he’s really a homo)
      *Waka Flocka yells on every record (from letting Gucci fuck him in the ass)
      *Chief Meet let Jimmy Iovine fuck him in the ass for a deal
      *All female rappers are lesbians

      1. so why the fuck you on a hip hop website if you hate every single rapper in the world? go listen to your brittney spears bullshit or something…and you are fuckin retarded for thinking biggie said some gay shit..in me & my bitch, he says “you look so good, i suck on your daddies dick”..might sound gay, but if you werent retarde, youd know he was refering to a richard pryor joke when pryor said “THIS BITCH WAS FINE, POPS. I AINT LYING. THE BITCH WAS SO FINE I WANTED TO SUCK HER DADDYS DICK! SHIT. IS THAT FINE ENOUGH FOR YOUR ASS?”…talking shit about nas, jayz, eminem, eazy e, 2 pac, and biggie?!? the fuck ma, get a fuckin life son

    9. people say that pac got raped in prison and had a boyfriend in drama school. google “2pac and Eskiah.” 2pac was also used to strip and hump blow up dolls on stage yet yall have the nerve to call guys like game gay for allegedly being a male stripper and having a tongue ring. even though pac was a documented stripper and had a nose ring.

      2pac also supported queen latfifah at a gay pride concert. if a rapper like wayne or kanye did that today you guys would be all over them for it and hate mongering. yet Pac is guilty of the same behavior. and victim of the same types of rumors.

      2pac was also a documented ballerina. The point is you n*ggas live in glass houses and habitually throw stones at today’s rappers for doing the EXACT same **** that pac and biggie did! Biggie rapped about raping jesus, ******* men in the ***, and sucking his girl’s dad’s dick yet you n*ggas say NOTHING! but let kanye where leather and he’s a f@ggot!? You fu

    10. damn yall some hatin ass dudes man. Weezy been killin the game since his cash money days. Look how much he’s done for hip hop and all yall do is hate. He’s given us classics, and I agree his recent stuff doesn’t top Carter 1 and 2, but you can’t deny he’s top 5 right now(top 3 actually).

      So many other wack rappers and yall choose to hate on Weezy. I bet yall them lame ass “real hip hop” fans who only bump Common(who sucks) and fuckin Mos Def. Them old ass fools don’t even sell units, plus Wayne is lyrically shitting on them. Carter 2 still the best rap album of 2000 era. Fuck anyone who says any different(and Carter III is shitting on the majority of whats coming out today, including yall lame as opinions)

      1. Haha, no one gives a fuck how many units you move. 3/4 of Wayne’s album sales go to 15 year old girls and the other quarter goes to his daddy Birdman who kisses all of them before he goes to sleep at night

    11. Y’all need to forget this irrelevant ass nigga, Ja Rule will soon come outta jail and will give us a classic just like pac.

    12. I’m making $86 an hour working from home. I was shocked when my neighbour told me she was averaging $95 but I see how it works now. I feel so much freedom now that I’m my own boss. This is what I do, =B=l=u=e=3=1=.=c=o=m=

    13. Man why the fuck are you all talking about Ja Rule’s lame ass for. He’s a fuck’n has been. He’s a fake ass wannabe 2pac. He ain’t shit in HipHop anymore. Just like pac said: “All you old rappers trying to advance it’s all over now, take it like a man.”

    14. 50’s math isn’t so good! LOL + Chris was definitely in debt! His brother & business partner definitely admitted that + said it wasn’t that big of deal “he’s been in bigger jams before & owed more before!”

    15. sad shit. The very simple reality is that he could have appeared to be happy, and was hiding serious depression for years. No amount of money or material worth can medicate.
      Making light of another persons death is sad folks….lets try to grow up a touch.
