N.O.R.E. stirred up some controversy last week when he claimed JAY-Z told him Eminem would only perform at Super Bowl LVI if 50 Cent was involved. He made the comment during a recent Drink Champs episode with Snoop Dogg, telling the West Coast gangsta rap icon, “I said to JAY-Z, I have to ask this straight up, ‘Who is gonna perform at the NFL?’
“He said to me — and I’m sorry for everybody who don’t understand — and he said, ‘the white guy called for 50 Cent. I said, ‘Who is the white guy? Jimmy Iovine?’ And he said, ‘No, Eminem called directly for Fifty and he said I can’t do it if I can’t bring 50 with me.’”

But 50 Cent has some questions. In an Instagram post shared on Saturday (April 16), the television mogul screenshot a photo of the headline, “Eminem Told Jay-Z He Wouldn’t Perform at the Super Bowl If He Couldn’t Bring 50 Cent, Says N.O.R.E.”
He added in the caption, “Why would he have to say that should be the question?NORE Your big homie is running around trying to look like a gay painter,” a shot at Hov’s Jean-Micheal Basquiat-esque hairstyle.
In a follow-up post, 50 Cent also wondered why JAY-Z referred to Eminem as a “white” guy rather than a title that more accurately represents his status in Hip Hop culture.
“[eyeball emojis] why did he say the white boy, why he didn’t say the biggest rap artist in the world ?” he wrote. “Happy Easter ! man enjoy the holidays.”
The post included side-by-side photos of Basquiat and JAY-Z, who’d dressed up as the famed artist for Halloween in 2014. Check it out below.
Lol fif ain’t happy Jay disrespected him and his massa by calling him the “white guy”. Royce finna chime in soon too, just wait lmaooo
Dame boy, your massa is trying to look like lil Nas uncle….
……..wtf??
With that mentality I doubt you have anyone who would do anything for you out of loyalty.. it’s expected most ppl in hiphop artists or fans don’t have a sense of loyalty to anyone
Fifty reaching on that shit to take a shot at Jay like he has done over the years. Eminem is the only relevant white rapper from that era who anyone would mention. It’s not like you have to distinguish him between Bubba Sparks or Paul Wall or some shit. Fif must think the people who refer to Obama as the black President is racist too although white people do it all the time. He needs to cut this dickriding out. It’s not a good look.
calling obama the black president is racist lol, just say his fuckin name.
It really isn’t since he’s one of one. It says more about America as a whole that anyone can distinguish him by his race without saying his name that we’ve only had one.
By the way, we get called the black guy all of the time in way less advantageous situations. Black male. Black female. Sorry, but that’s not racist. Dumb as fuck because I’m not a famous white rapper that everyone would recognize as the one or the former President that everyone would recognize as the only one, but okay, if you want to reach on that shit, knock yourself out.
“Yo Em, you know you my favorite white boy right?” – 50 cent “patiently waiting”
Jay Z racist af ooo wait hes black soo racism doesn’t count because black peoples are never racist ooo it all makes senes know finally 50 actually did something relevant and it only took 19 years!!
NORE OUT HERE GOSSIPING LIKE A FEMALE. NOW EVERYONE IS TAKING THIS OUT OF CONTEXT AND MORE THAN LIKELY MISINTERPRETING SHIT. I HATE THIS CURRENT STATE OF PODCASTS AND HIP HOP.
50 cents is d definition of a fool
I wanna see if Fifty cent is gonna box Benzino in that celebrity match. He hasn’t responded yet..
