50 Cent and Floyd Mayweather were once close friends and business partners, publicly calling themselves "The Money Team" (TMT). Their bond formed in the late 2000s, rooted in mutual respect for each other’s hustle—50 as a hip-hop mogul and Mayweather as an undefeated boxing champion. They were often seen together at events, promoting each other, and flaunting their wealth and lifestyle.

In 2012, the relationship took a sharp turn. During Mayweather’s brief stint in jail for a domestic violence charge, 50 Cent claimed he took over responsibilities for TMT Promotions—a boxing promotions company they discussed launching together. Upon Mayweather’s release, 50 Cent expected a formal partnership, but Floyd reportedly distanced himself from the business side, leading 50 to feel slighted.

50 went on to launch SMS Promotions independently, and tensions escalated from there. The feud spilled into social media and interviews, with both men throwing jabs. 50 mocked Floyd's reading ability in viral posts, while Mayweather clapped back by flaunting his wealth and accomplishments.

Despite occasional rumors of reconciliation, the relationship has remained rocky, marked more by public disses than any real truce. Their split highlights how business misunderstandings and egos can dismantle even the strongest public friendships.

It is a bitter but undeniable truth: not everyone is fortunate to have a support system that fuels growth. Some must fight twice as hard, not just against challenges, but against the very people who should be cheering them on.

After Pimp C’s untimely death in 2007, both Boosie and Webbie have remained loyal to his legacy. They continue to shout him out in songs, interviews, and social media. Boosie often refers to Pimp C as a mentor and someone who believed in him early on, while Webbie has publicly said Pimp C was like family.

Even years later, Boosie and Webbie keep his name alive through tributes, lyrics, and by continuing the gritty Southern sound that Pimp C championed. They see him not only as a legend, but as someone who truly cared about their rise — and they’ve never forgotten that.

The Predator (1992) by Ice Cube is an undisputed West Coast classic that deserves zero overlooking. Released in the aftermath of the 1992 L.A. riots, the album is raw, reflective, and fiercely relevant — a defining moment in Ice Cube’s solo career and a pillar of early '90s hip-hop.

It features absolute gems, starting with the legendary "It Was a Good Day" — a masterclass in storytelling that paints a vivid picture of a rare, peaceful day in South Central L.A. The laid-back beat, sampling The Isley Brothers, contrasts beautifully with Cube’s sharp lyricism. And yes, the remix version adds even more grit and groove.

Then there’s "Wicked", a menacing, high-energy track that showcases Ice Cube’s rage and defiance in the face of systemic injustice. It’s aggressive, unapologetic, and still hits like a sledgehammer.

Don’t forget "Check Yo Self" — a word to the wise backed by a clever interpolation of Grandmaster Flash’s “The Message.” It's both a banger and a warning, reinforcing Cube’s status as a lyrical street prophet.

From political commentary to personal introspection to straight-up bangers, The Predator captures the essence of Ice Cube at his peak. Overlook this album? Never. It’s not just a record — it’s a cultural document.
