Roughly one week after Queens rapper 50 Cent stated that he would be featured on ScHoolboy Q’s upcoming album, Oxymoron, the Los Angeles rapper has revealed that Fifty will not be included on his LP.
“Yeah, man. Damn, man. I’m embarrassed for the nigga,” ScHoolboy Q said during an interview with Hot 97. “Like he’s not on my album…We cut a record, but I mean and plus he support me. Maybe he just wanted to support. You know what I mean?”
50 Cent shared the news via an Instagram post that has since been deleted. He left the following caption under the picture he posted on the social media site: “I’m on school boy Q album. We did a joint together.”
While speaking with Angie Martinez, Q informed listeners that he has recorded a couple of songs with 50 Cent and wasn’t able to find space for his collaboration with the G-Unit emcee on Oxymoron. In addition to Fifty, ScHoolboy Q revealed that E-40 was another artist he was hoping to get on his album.
“It’s a song. Like two. It didn’t make the album,” he said. “See, I don’t wanna make this whole thing—Cause 50 may have a camera set up at my mama’s house like ‘Nigga, yo mama fat.’ You know what I’m saying? You know 50 be going in, so I can’t go like—it’s nothing like that. It just didn’t make it. I honestly, I swear to you, I wish 50 Cent was on my album. That was one artist, him and E-40. It’s two people that I wish I put on my album…It’s just so many records that I have. I have to pick and choose and I felt that it didn’t fit as good as the other records I had.”
In a past interview with Vibe magazine, ScHoolboy Q doted on 50 Cent’s confidence as an artist before stating that the rapper probably saved his life due to comments he made about the rap game.
“We got the same shit going on. Everything he talk about is the same shit I did. I relate to Fifty,” he said during an interview with Vibe in 2012. “I can listen to 50 Cent and tell he really mean what he’s saying. He’s one of them niggas that got a way with confidence…I seen where he was doing an interview about Ja Rule during the beef shit, he was saying that any nigga that just getting out of jail that don’t know what to do with himself is getting into the rap game. Recently when I just got out of jail I didn’t know what to do. I wasn’t going to try and finish playing football. That’s when I was fucking around with rapping, I wasn’t really rapping but when I heard that I was like fuck it…I really went hard at it. Fifty probably saved my life on some real shit.”
ScHoolboy Q’s Oxymoron album is currently slated for a February 25 release. Artists whose features have been confirmed for Q’s album include Jay Rock, Kendrick Lamar, 2 Chainz, and SZA.

E-40 and 50 didn’t make the cut but you had room for 2 Chainz?
Hope we still get to hear the songs, even if he throws them online for free. The first song Q did with 50 is dope.
Can you say “BLACKBALLED”…the industry created a monster in 50 Cent, and now they want nothing to do with him. For that reason alone I want him to succeed. Never bought, nor will I ever buy a 50 Cent album, but at least there was something authentic about his point of view.
I feel like all the hate and doubt people got for 50 is only going to make him hungry and come back stronger. He definitely fell off a little once he made it to the top.
nah he didnt it to himself.. beefin n fuckin w people. taking they moms cribs n ex girls porno.. i mean it was all hilarious but i can see why noone would wana fuck w him he just that guy always seems to be negative n get introuble wiht dumb shit. instagator.
How you gon be embarrassed for a man that’s worth 250 million dollars? C’mon son. 50 ain’t lose no sleep over not bein on that lil’ album.
jimmy hates 50 cent has has been blackballing him for a while and this is another example the white jew needs a beating
It’s got nothing to do with him being white or a jew. Iovine is just a dick eater, and I’m not talking sexuality. Him and Dr. Dre are just leeches, but that’s how the music business works. Iovine wanted another, “yes massa” like Dr. Dre, or a drug addict like Eminem who needs a baby sitter to shield him from the public.
He sure as hell didn’t want a strong black man staring at him from across the table, he just wanted some boys he could control.
Embarrassed ? what the fuck is this nigga even talmbout? that nigga fiddy done sold some huge units and his net worth is over 200 mill while this nigga Q aint even seen 200k in his life . fucking bitch ass broke nigga needs to sit his ass in the corner.
Get off his dick. What the fuck? Why are you counting his pockets like the money is yours? He doesn’t even have that much, all of those net worth things are wrong, you just choose to believe it because you’re a dickrider.
how would you know how much he got, are you his accountant
most of these rappers are all about money and 50 is one of the dudes winning the race
Can someone explain why 50 is blackballed? Is it because he disses multiple record selling artists and tarnishes the record labels money making machines?
because he called himself Curtis “Interscope” Jackson
he dissed his bosses, threatened to put out his albums for free, started a headphone company that directly competes with jimmy iovine and dre… the list goes on and on
I don’t think 50’s losing sleep over not being on Oxymoron, yes its a bit embarrassing he said he was but Schoolboy Q’s a dumbass for not having at least one song with 50 on the album
No one can tell me otherwise 50’s being blackballed
I swear this is true. Jimmy probably made him pull the song cause 50 going around saying his headphones are better than Beats.
yep those times when he was calling himself Curtis “Interscope” Jackson has come back to bite him
Yeah, man. Damn, man. Im embarrassed for the nigga, don’t be he’s worth over $100mil and could probably release a blank CD that will sell more than Oxymoron
Fiddy can’t even get a feature on an album coming out from the same label as him.
That’s what happens when you’re man enough to tell label heads to go fuck themselves. Try being a man and stand for something, you will see how many people stand against you. Everyone just wants to act like everyone is their best industry buddies, 50 doesn’t play that game.
No 50 but you got time to put 2 chainz on it, Dumb nigga
2 Chainz is a superior rapper to 50, that’s why. What’s your favorite rapper isn’t necessairly q’s. He just respects 50 (who’s wack.)
Q put 50’s album in his top 25 favorites, 2 chainz no where in site.
“2 Chainz is a superior rapper to 50”
GTFOH, 2 Chainz is trash. 50’s a better rapper than him.
Q still has made love for 50. I was looking at his 25 Favorite Albums list on Complex and GRODT was up there with all the GOATS like Jay, Nas, BIG, Pac, and Dr. Dre.
Godfather 50 gonna feel embarrassed for this nigga when he sees them first week sales.
Nah just kidding I’m sure Oxymoron will do aight. I’m thinking more than Pusha T so maybe around 100k first week.
Hahaha. If rozay can’t get schoolboy q to include him, neither can 50, who’s album been pushed back to neveruary 32, 20012.
Atleast Q got songs with fif. Rozay was probably never even considered.
50’s being blackballed and he has fell off but I do feel he has the desire to make a comeback
true that nigga needs to get his hunger back, say what you want weather you think he’s s lyrical or not but 50 knows how to make a hit record
he hasnt made a hit since the terrible massacre and hasnt had a good album s ince his first.. i can name countless artists that had a few hits and 1 good album and wasnt shit sicne..50 leads that group
I Get Money was a hit
Wow, he made Curtis look like an idiot. Let’s keep it real, no one wants this dude on their album in 2014. You might find him on a bonus track or two, if people are feeling generous, but he will never be a main feature on a mainstream rappers solo album ever again. It’s funny watching Curtis get so excited when people mention him in interviews, from Soulja Boy to Wiz to J Cole to Schoolboy to Chief Keef. As soon as he’s mentioned, he calls them up and tries to be friends, hoping they will get him back in the game, but it never works and they never mess with him the way he thinks they do. I wish I could say I felt sorry for him, but he brought all this on himself. Now the rappers don’t like him, the media doesn’t like him, his label has him permanently shelved, sheitt, not even his family likes him. lol Damn homie, in high school…I’m not impressed.
Why do you think they work with him but don’t release any product? Because they aren’t bosses. They are slaves on a plantation and can only release what they are told to release. The label heads are threatened by him, so they tell there little worker boys,..”That’s not going to be on anything that we give you money for.”
They are all slaves, in debt to their record companies for their advance. You think they are fronting the money for their tours?
curtis made himself look like an idiot, not Q.
@rahrahrah
Curtis hasn’t dropped a record in 5 years, who’s the real slave? None of his singles were popping off, then he started dissing Jimmy and Dre and now they’ve got him stuck in purgatory for life over there. He’s caught up in an endless cycle of making full albums, then giving them out for free on the internet because the label won’t let him drop and the music keeps getting old. lol 50 Cent is the biggest slave in the music industry to date. I’m not impressed
“50 Cent is the biggest slave in the music industry to date. I’m not impressed”
I gotta disagree with you there. Other artists are actual slaves and they putting out flop after flop. He might not have a release date but he doesn’t have to do anything if he doesn’t want to.
He set for life and made his mark. He can go sit on an island and get fat, most of these rappers would be broke after 2 months of no touring.
Damn homie, if Schoolboy Quincy wont put your song on his album then you need to retire, at least 50 deleted the post bragging about being on the album to save himself some embarrassment.
Of course he deleted it, why should he give free publicity after the blatant disrespect that the label is showing him. Tell me truthfully, who would go to see a Schoolboy Q concert if you didn’t expect to see a bunch of “guests” show up?
Crickets…..and no disrespect to Q, he knows he’s not a headliner. Dude just started rapping a few years ago.
he’s actually gonna be in my area march 7. college kids in this area love q. he’ll prolly sell out the theatre he’s in in all honesty. q fans are like juicy j fans, you go to have a good time and get twisted not necessarily to head nod and listen intricately.
damn guy man the fuck up n just let em know yall collabod it just didnt fit the theme u wanted u dont gotta act like a bitch explain ur position in detail why his shitty verses didnt make ur album we all know why he didnt make it.. his non-creative ass couldnt say anything more than i shoot the semi to push ya wig back n hes like oh fuck nah this aint makin the cut.
You think it takes creativity to be on a rap album? Do you know how easy it is to pay for a ghost writer?
The only reason he isn’t on the album is that these artists are slaves, and they can only do what their masters allow them to do. And their master’s have no love for 50.
Look at all these little puppets getting their little industry checks. They know where their bread is buttered. A bunch of spineless little boys, not a man among them.
1) if you have a ghost writer I will never buy your music.ever
2) no that’s the issue u don’t have to have skills or talent now adays to get on
3) I would agree with u about artists not having freedom to put on any artists..but 50 is just a 1 way artist. he has 1 topic to talk about, 1 flow and has no other character to him as far as his rapping is concerned..when u see a 50 track uak what the content will be..same as his 1st album.
same could be said about most of these rap niggas, especially Ross
From the singles and leaks I’ve heard I’m more looking forward to hearing Oxymoron than Mastermind that’s for sure.
“Can someone explain why 50 is blackballed? Is it because he disses multiple record selling artists and tarnishes the record labels money making machines?”
He is not blackballed he just had Dr Dre & Swizz Beats on production and Alicia keys on the hook and Eminem on the mix with a vers by Dr Dre off the lead single for SKI, called “New Day”.
Blackballed artists dont drop lead singles with multi-platinum Grammy award winning singers and rappers. Dr Dre just diesent jump on any song and Alicia Keyes just diesent collaborate with any rapper.
The truth is that 50 fell off just like Ludacris, just like Nelly, just like Ja Rule , there is no conspiracy and you can hear 50 on Cheif Keefs album that dropped last year.
Did Alicia Keys promote that single? Alicia Keys actually did her best to distance herself from that. Do you know the financial arrangement behind the release of that signal, do you know how many personal favors 50 might have had to call in for that one.
50 Cent was the reason Chief Keef signed to Interscope. 50 was trying to be a cooperative worker and showed him around LA. When the album started sounding like the trash that everyone expected it to be they tried to use 50 to build a little buzz.
Of course they will use him to their advantage, he still has a contractual obligation. Q has been saying for years he wants 50 on his album. Now he’s not on it….right. It’s because of “creative differences”.
I’ve got a bridge to sell you..
Quincy said in his interview with Angie Martinez that the song didnt fit for his album, so is Quincy lying?
Why does Alicia Keyes have to promote a rap single, thats a job for the lead artist on the song nit the featured artist and since when has a song with DR Dre on it needed any extra promo?
And LMFAO at a cold as ice 50Cent building a buzz for Cheif Keef, you would be better off getting Wacka, 2-Chainz, Future or somebody from TDE.
If Eminem wont put 50Cent on his last two albums then why should Schoolboy?
Q is a westcoast nicca and he didn’t even put 1 Game album in his top 25 fav albums!
LMAO @ that comment about Fiddy having a hidden camera set up at his mama’s house…
Shit wasn’t that funny bro, u just mad cuz fiddy can’t get an album out.
That could never happen cause French ain’t cool with 50 no more and we all know French is the one who goes around filming niggas moms!
If 50 ever pulls his career out of the shitter and somehow makes a comeback you know all these niggas gonna be begging for a verse.
Word!
50 Cent is the ultimate industry slave.
The poor guy is signed to Eminem who is signed to Dr Dre who is signed to Jimmy Iovine who is signed to Lucian Grainge.
This is why rappers should think twice before they sign to someone so far down on the chain of command and shows why Banks and Yayo never had successful labels and artists of their own.
50Cent has sold over 50 million albums and singles combined for Interscope but at the end of the day they view him as nothing but a Negro slave and a worker.
I’d love to be an industry slave worth over $100mil
lol that first quote makes me picture schoolboy q tuggin his collar
50’s album wil sell alot more than this dudes album!
WHAT ALBUM, LMAO
FIDDY CANT EVEN RELEASE A MIXTAPE
50’s verse was probably wack (stop me if you heard that one before).
no one wants to hear 50s repetitive ass over and over and over.. shit we heard the same shit from u for a decade.
so why did q make 2 songs with him for his album
my classmate’s ex-wife makes $83 hourly on the internet . She has been without work for six months but last month her pay was $21027 just working on the internet for a few hours. Check This Out………..http://x.co/3v9Wk
Q need to smarten up n buy some fresh clothes nigga damnnnn
How times change. A 50 collabo used to be anticipated. Now a dude dropping just his first major album feels sorry for him lol
Yeah I think Jimmy and Dre def behind this shit. But this is how life works when you play hard ball. 50 once threatened to push Styles shit back, he didnt wanna see The Documentary drop, he held Buck back, and he holding Banks career. Thats not not Jimmy holding 50, ITS KARMA!!!
hes not holding banks career. banks is lazy. he puts out dope mixtapes but does no promo, films no videos and therefore gets no attention. 50 got tired of doing everything for them. i dont think lloyd banks wants to be famous and super popular.
Can’t say I’m not disappointed…was really lookin’ forward to it. Damn..oh well…#LabelPolitics #Oxymoron

Glad he didn’t put 50 en E40 on his deput, Q has enough features matter a fact, just the right amount of features on #OXY.
In my opinion u gotta carry that shit (mostly) on you’re own (deput albums that is)
Aside from 50 being as relevant as a cockflavoured lollypop lol.
no homo for that last line nigga. what u know about cock flavored lollypops.
