 When 50 Cent helped The Game launch his career -- by contributing to his now classic debut, The Documentary -- he was doing so at the request of Dr. Dre.
If Dre asked him to help him launch the career of another artist, would he do it again? Even though it backfired with him and the Game?
Absolutely, 50 said in an interview with MTV, and they're working on just that right now.
"We were actually talking about a new artist, working together on a new project," he explained. "I said, 'Just because we had a car accident, that doesn't mean we're not going to drive again -- it just means we had an accident with that one.' He laughed at me. He said, 'All right. I'll give it a try,' because he was unsure about how I would feel about helping with [another new artist].
"Obviously Dre can create the best possible production for the artist and groom him to the right space," 50 continued. "But going to introduce him to the general public would be something you want 50 to go do."
While helping break a new artist with Dr. Dre is a go, 50 has vowed to never work with The Game again, even if Dre specifically asked him to, say, for a record on Detox. No matter how perfect the record was, Fif' says no way!
"No," Fif' stated flatly in his MTV interview. "No, I wouldn't do it. I'd be on a record, on a song, on the [Detox] album, but not on that record [with Game]. That's not making a song, that's making an event -- things for people to talk about. ... So there's a verse there that you think would be great for both of us, I just say, 'Erase his verse and put something in better than that.' "
