Music executive and brand builder Steve Stoute had a few non-flattering words about 50 Cent a few weeks back during an interview with Hot 97’s Angie Martinez where he said 50 was no longer influential in Hip-Hop culture.
A few days later a photo surfaced of the G-Unit general that appeared to show him checking Steve Stoute at Madison Square Garden during a Knicks game about his comments. During an interview with MTV’s RapFix, 50 Cent explained what the conversation was about and revealed that Stoute has been a frenemy for some time. He even explained how Stoute tried to talk him out of signing with “The White Boy” (Eminem’s Shady records).
Peep the interview as well as Stout’s initial comments.
