"This is an analogy, so this is nothing. 50 is my brother, Game is my brother, but I just want to use this as an analogy because I want to put this into rap terms so you can understand what happened and why I was frustrated. So say 50 signs Game and gives him the opportunity to do a demo. Just one song or something. He does that song and everybody likes that song better than any song 50 had done over the past ten years, since 50 made the Jordans. And 50 saw that and was like, 'Huh, I don't know about that.' But then people, everybody's pressuring him, 'Let him do it again.' So he lets him do one more song and that's even bigger. So 50's like, 'I don't even know that.' Then Game is like, 'Can I do more?' They're like, 'I don't know.' And 50 is just sending people to Game to just talk to him. He won't even talk to him himself. Said, 'Can I do more?' He won't even get on the phone with him. This man made the biggest song and it's for G-Unit. 50 won't even talk to him. So that's what I'm talking about when I say Mark Parker." (V-103)
Kanye West Relates His Problem with Nike to 50 Cent and Game Falling Out
A couple of weeks ago, it was in the news that Kanye West had a falling out with one time business partner, Nike. Kanye partnered with Nike for his 'Air Yeezy' footwear a couple of years ago. He had the Air Yeezy 1, and the Yeezy 2, but problem began with the supposed third one; Money problem and control problems. He is now about to sing an alleged $10 million deal with Nike's rivals, Adidas. In a recent interview, Kanye used the 50 Cent and Game beef as analogy to explain his problem with Nike.
