50 Cent, The Game Squash the "Beef"

“On Wednesday, 50 Cent and The Game publicly squashed a bitter feud that had erupted into gunfire last week after 50 kicked Game out of his G-Unit clique for disloyalty. The two platinum-selling gangsta rappers didn’t exactly kiss and make up. When they emerged before a media throng at Harlem’s famed Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, both looked as if they’d been shoved into apologies by a stern mother. But they did shake hands, albeit at the end of the press conference, after speaking about contrition and the need for peace.” TheStateOf: Thank goodness rappers with beefs are starting to realize their errors. Why kill the Golden Goose? Since it’s Friday, we’ll get ig’nant and say we think 50 may be jealous because The Game is clearly the better rapper. In this chorus from “Start From Scratch,” The Game laments his terrible childhood: “If I could start my life from scratch / If I could take away the pain off my past/ If I had another chance I would do just that/ I’d give anything jus’ to go right back” Despite his rough exterior, The Game has a lot to say about America, the black community and life in general.
