Shyne Responds To 50 Cent Crashing His Media Conference Call
By
Allen Starbury ♦ Published 08/13/2010
Shyne held a Def Jam-sponsored conference call with DJs and journalists on Wednesday (August 11) to talk about new music and his upcoming album, but one of the rapper's enemies popped up on the line ... 50 Cent.
While no one may have realized during the call that it was Fif' on the line, due to him posing as DJs and journalists to get on, the G-Unit General filmed himself making the call live and posted it on his ThisIs50.com website the next day (August 12).
In the clip, 50 is seen on the phone claiming to be a radio personality: "Shawn from Radio One," he tells the conference call operator. He then asks: "What's your real issue with 50 Cent?"
Despite the attempt, 50 was quickly disconnected, but called back from several phones to get back on the line. Later, he is seen yelling into the phone, pretending to talk to Shyne, spitting Mel Gibson-eque obscenities and declaring "you're on an island. You can't go to war on an island."
The news of 50's phone-crashing got back to Shyne, who responded in an interview with MTV, via Skype.
The Belize-born says he was shocked by Fif's call, basically calling him a "stalker" who's "desperate" for attention.
"Wow. That's like an all-time low," Shyne told MTV. "I didn't know he was so desperate. He's gone from confidential informant, witness-protection program dude, getting order [of protection] on motherf***ers. Now he's a stalker. I was in shock. He called up saying he was 'Jamal from Harlem.' He didn't call up saying he's Curtis Jackson, Hawaii 5-0. He's a busta. I can't believe it. I can't believe he would stoop to that low. Then again, a guy in the witness-protection program, he has no shame."
Later in the interview, Shyne explained that he wasn't aware that it was 50 Cent on the line at the time, until after the call was done.
"You know how it is. When you do these things, you always gotta expect a motherf***er to call and he might be disgruntled. We took it as another disgruntled person. 'Cause you know, I don't know what his voice sounds like. I don't listen to nothing he do. If we on the yard, and they put his video on, they change the TV in the yard," Shyne explained, referring to his recently completed prison stint. "I don't jack that dude on no level. I don't know what his voice sound like. But somebody at Def Jam caught him. He's been reaching out to one of my generals in the street begging for peace. He caught his voice too. It was after the fact.
"I thought it was somebody who was having a bad day, who wanted to know the situation. It wasn't until after everything was finished, motherf***ers at Def Jam was like, 'That was Boo-Boo. That was Hawaii 5-0.' I was like, 'No. No.' Then he put the [video] out, like he was talking reckless. He's a creep. Any of my comments have been honest comments. These dudes do anything, I don't give a f***. It never bothered me. The fact that he's sitting in New York, selling his Vitamin Water, listening to my Ustream. What the f***? You're stalking me. Go take some steroids. Find something to do."
Since posting the video of the call on his website, 50 hasn't further commented on the incident.

50 goes after his enemies publicly to destroy their careers since he had to turn snitch to get in the game it's hard to go back to the streets. So he's locked up in his condo on the outskirts of UConn blasted at his enemies. 50, T.I., Rick Ross they all Police. the Hip Hop game is ruined. If 2Pac was alive he would ride on all 3 of them Copland niggaz

50 music career my be taking a dive, but his comedy game is tight. He needs a show.

Moreover if 50 REALLY wanted attention he'd probably go after a bigger fish than Shyne.

"If Pac was..."

who gives a fuck about 50? i was the first to say that he sucks. yeah he sold millions, but with every successful album he had, he had to go after someone else to create a buzz. that is weak. Ludacris never went at anybody to sell records. just an example. banks had the best flow in g unit and now he is the only member that people listens to now. fuck 50...and shyne po, stop crying off someone who is irrevalent to hip hop and do you. stop crying.

I like Shyne and all, but one question...
...if he has all this beef with 50, how can he say he doesn't even know what he sounds like, never watches the videos or listens to the songs...where does this beef come from?
Something ain't addin' up

Fucc all you 50 haters. Ya'll are 2 blind to see that 50 is the realest nigga in the game and has not lied about shit(unlike ja,ross,shyne etc.)Real ones are hard to find. Shyne was in the lates issue of XXL talking all this big shit abt 50. But shyne's a BITCH he aint shit and aint gonna be shit either
tino
are you people crazy 1st 50 called and started screaming and yelling over a PHONE!!!!! a very scary tatic if you ask me, a real boss stays calm and makes his point like a real man, not yelling over another man like a kid that nobody will listen to.2nd 50 is scared or he wouldnt waste his time his music and label are falling he should be trying to make himself better before he gets squashed in another beef(game,ross) and 3rd shyne po aint no snitch and 50 is proof is in his music.

Both of the videos are really whack, I mean, like I can kind of understand Shyne's point, but how is it possible to beef with anyone and not know what they sound like? Why the hell do you have beef in the first place? Plus, don't whine and complain about it after the fact, just take it as it is, no way to change the past.
On the flip side of it, 50's video was extremely whack too, it's only comedic if you are a huge 50 fan and can't see that the video proves he's immature. The fact that 50 even called was ridiculous, but when he didn't use his actual identity - just made it ridiculous.
