50 Cent is on the cover of Vibe’s International issue. Check below for clips from his interview about Dr. Dre and Face Tattoos.
ON DR. DRE’S REACTION TO HIS SLEEK HEADPHONES
“I have a strong personality, a strong character. And I can be difficult to deal with at certain points because I’m vocal. If you upset Em, he’s just gonna not talk to you. You’re not going to get him in the next room you wanna get him in. With Dre, the same. He’s not comfortable with friction. That [tweet] is, “Hey look, I’m here. Is everybody still paying attention?” So they go, “Why he say that? Why he say we mad?” Then the meeting happens.”50 ON RAPPERS WITH FACE TATTOOS
“That’s the craziest thing. Not necessarily Gucci, but to tattoo your face says that there’s not a possibility that you can actually walk into a legitimate establishment without makeup covering your face every day. That does not work. It creates a separation. It says, “I’m an artist.” That’s it. That’s the statement you make when you go and tattoo your face…But know that the public will not have interest in you as an artist for life. You have to be phenomenal. Talk to the best that do it and they will tell you that it will take more than you being an artist. It takes marketing, maneuvering to generate for that long. When you got 40-year-old rappers in the game, those guys have maneuvered and survived.”

50 one smart dude
what he saying about face tattoo is 100% right , the funny thing is more bump welfare N have them then artist
tell me why white muthhafukers be on a black hip hop site trying to be cool and act like they black… that shi!!!!!! looks so stupid when a white boi trys and act black .. first off they have no rhythem … so when they try and act black or move around like a black person it looks funny as fuk lol lol lol… whites so happy to have eminem and yelawolf .. now they feel like they black… everytime i see a white boi acting black .. i bust out and laugh… you see a white boi with a doo rag and a pair jordans on .. that shi!!!! is tooooo funny.. you know why…. because a white person has no swag in their body what so ever…. u see that white chick in the (sundrop soda commerical)danceing to (drop it like its hot) she had no type of rhythem or swag at all… that shi!!! looks to funny …. remember they made a movie making fun of white people acting black…. (malibu most wanted)
that was on point i aint gonna lie
Man who cares. GO COP THAT MAX B ALBUM. VIGILANTE SEASON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
damn.. kinda strange. dont know how you got triggered to go off on white people from an article about 50 Cent’s opinion on face tattoos. do you have some built up anger about other things? you not pleasing your woman? does your shitty dead end job have you on the ropes? call 1-800-gofuckurself. im white scott, but i have more rythm in my pinky than you do in your entire body. smh and youre prolly one the ignorant millions in america that asks why we still have so much racial tension in america today..
@scott >> nigga dont trip bout them crackas.
Damn fif you had me rolling on the floor with that pic.
Fif is my nigga, just look at em…BOSS
Lil bitch ass scott boy ill smack da fuk outta u .like to see u laughing at me wit my do rag n j’s kid u won’t b laughing for to long hoe ass punk
@scott, that is a RACIST comment. it dont matter what color skin you are, its about how you raised & who you be with. ive seen plenty of soft ass BLACK PEOPLE who live in the suburbs & act “white” all the time. on the other hand ive seen WHITE people, live a HOOD lifestyle. SKIN COLOR DOES NOT MATTER.
@Scott …How can you act “black”? Black is a color…I think the better word to use is “ghetto”.
And plus, you don’t even have to be African American to be ghetto…
lol.
By the way, you’re grammar is horrible Scott, lol.
I think you guys should know that he is a spammer that goes on EVERY hip hop site on the net …
seriously, any hip hop site I go to read up on this Scott dude is their lol.
Spot on @over.. Yeah that Scott person is always spamming the same exact message on every site. It’s obviously to throw you off topic… Funny thing he could be a white guy trying to stir up some racial tension on these bloGS…
Regarding 50′s comment sooner or later it won’t really be such a big deal to have a face tat and still hold down a regular job. So it’s not that big an issue. Fif sounds like he’s been tamed and is under the corporates thumb… Damn homie in 03 you was the man homie, what the fuck happened to you???
@ GunDoggy
What f*N job are you talking about?
Yea bartending at a Nightclub sure it wont matter
Anything outside of that u could forget about it
50 clearly understands the way u have to present yourself in certain settings
No one is taking u serious with a Ice Cream Cone on your Face
FACT!
@Trev agreed
Another shot at Game & Wayne.. This nigga right here always has to say some slick shit huh.. Man this nigga is the true meaning of money change people for the worse.. If you want a tat on your face to express yourself more power too you if that ain’t your thing say that and keep it pushing…
also if you wanna be more than a rapper, ball player whatever and you wanna go the business route then Im sure you not going to get face tats… Be yourself that’s the best way to get where you wanna go don’t let anybody tell you how to express yourself…
certain he got his perspective on face tats from Iovine or Lyor or sum shit #notbuyingit
Bet he got a record with Gucci in the works too #fakeshit
@ T Lee
He does
It drops friday
Gucci Ft 50 cent “Recently”
Check it out
@Scott – Tell me why mofo’s like you have a one track mind? How do you act black? Is speaking English mean we’re acting British? Every heard of being a product of your environment? Did you mean no rhythm? Then you talk about Jordans. So me wearing the Jordan 13 Playoffs I just bought on Feb 26th is offensive to you? What should be offensive to you is how much money we spend on those Jordans that cost peanuts to manufacture. Not sure what you got against white people but that’s your choice. I have been down with hip hop culture before you even knew what hip hop was, so technically you’re acting like me and others before you not the other way around.
But whatever grudge you have you should let it go. I don’t know about you but only color I care about is green cause that’s the only shit going to pay my bills. So me being a music producer and lets say you were a rapper, you’d be biased taking a beat from me no matter how banging the beat is solely because I’m white? Feel sorry for your train of thought.
scott is chris brown he angry just explodes randomly dont pay him any attention
lol trev’s post is funny as hell!!!
He can have a record with anyone…as an artst…it still does not change that fact that these idiots are ruining their lives with what they’re doing to their face. SMH
I like how he didn’t directly or indirectly answer the Dre question…smh… completely dodge the question. What I understood from that answer was – no one is no longer paying attention to me, so I’m going tweet to generate some controversy and interest bc I’m 50 and I dropped some head phones and no one is talking about them…so what better way for people to talk about them…ummm..let me do what I usually do WWF, and talk about Dr. Dre’s head phones and how he’s mad I came up with my own line (which is totally not true), but hey I need to eat so screw it – I’m 50 cent, and that has been an official tantrum of mine.
