Spike Lee Is Not A Friend of 50 Cent
left “Like anything violent that goes on, they kind of put me to it,” 50 Cent told Bangkok Recorder Magazine in a recent interview. “For instance, I think Spike Lee’s new motivation for talking about me had something to do with the incident with Busta Rhymes’ bodyguard... Cause, Spike Lee’s not a friend of mine."
50 went on to criticize some of Lee's production skills, saying "I actually dislike the part in his movies where the character stands still [and the camera pans back] and it looks like [the character] moves. I think that’s the corniest thing on the planet."
In his final address to Spike Lee's opinions on him, we got typical 50 when he stated, "I don’t know if Spike Lee actually has a problem with 50 Cent, 50 Cent’s image or the things that are being projected on me, or if he just needs new press and publicity... Who’s Spike Lee? Spike Lee’s not relevant to 50 Cent. He’s not even in my life. I could care less about him."
