50 Cent Not Happy With Rick Ross and Diddy Remaking a Biggie Classic

It appears that 50 Cent's hate for Rick Ross is still on, and their beef will be to infinity and beyond. Ross just dropped his sixth album, Mastermind, and there is a song on their titled Nobody (feat. French Montana and Diddy), which is a remake of Biggie's classic 1997 song, You're Nobody (Till Somebody Kills You). During his recent interview on Hot Power 105.1 FM's The Breakfast Club Show, 50 let the world know that he is not too happy with Puffy's decision in remaking the Biggie classic.





During the course of the interview, he was asked if he still had a problem Diddy, and he said...




"You know? I'm good. We're good. Some of his choices though...it made me scratch my head, like the Biggie references with the music. Because, you know, we'll be here longer. Our work will be here longer than we will. You know what I'm saying? But...like, like for me, even if someone comes that's lyrical, that's cool, and all that different shit, I would kinda stay away from trying to make him That (Biggie), for that new culture, like the new...I get it what he trying to do, but I would try to preserve those people that were iconic in the past, instead of trying to...You know?" 





I get what 50 is trying to say, but if he looks at the bigger picture, then he would understand that remake wasn't forced...it fit perfectly into the picture that Ross, French and Diddy were trying to paint. The problem a lot of people have with the song is that they feel Ross doesn't have the rights, and shouldn't remake any Biggie song. But if they took time to listen to the whole album, and see how everything flows into each other, then they would understand that remake. It wasn't like Diddy and Ross set out to remake a Biggie song for the album. But, after Ross was almost assassinated on his own Birthday last year, they were sitting in the studio, and were thinking of how to turn that situation into something good...into something creative that would tell the story of Ross's real life situation, and that's when they came up with the idea.
