THE GAME CALLS OUT 50 CENT ON TWITTER!

We folks that live via the Facebook & Twitter social networking communities are always a step ahead of the game. We receive info regarding news, sports, entertainment, gossip, etc. real time and are usually the most informed individuals around the water cooler and beauty & barber shops for that reason.

If you follow blogs or online media sources and you have yet to launch your very own Twitter account, well what the hell are you waiting for? Get with the program already! I mean, where else can you find yourself smack dab in the middle of hip hop history unfolding right before your very eyes.

Yesterday, I observed a tweet coming across my Crackberry (credit that phony a-hole Jim Rome for the "Crackberry" slang) from West Coast hip hop artist The Game.

The Game's tweet was directed at the international superstar rapper and actor Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson. The Game and 50 Cent have been in a full-throttle hip hop beef mode for the past several years, after The Game's mainstream career began working with Dr. Dre and 50 Cent. Judging from the tweets I provided below from The Game and what I will define as a cameo tweet appearance from 50 Cent, it appears The Game is ready to reconcile their professional relationship.




WHAT'S IN IT FOR 50 CENT?

There was a moment in recent hip hop history when The Game and 50 Cent had the collective following of the east, west, and 3rd coast hip hop community. Those days are gone and most fans of hip hop in the Houston market I interact with feel that 50 Cent and the Game are hip hop bullies that have allowed their personal issues and immaturity handcuff their personal and professional growth.

Personally, I disagree with the latter part of that statement because 50 Cents has expanded his professional growth into that of a Hollywood film star. The Game has done so as well, but to a lesser extent. Both rappers have proven to be surprisingly comfortable on the big screen and I would anticipate a bright film making career for both.


If 50 Cent, The Game, and the associated members of G-Unit were to get back in the studio together as The Game suggested on Twitter Wednesday, it truly would be an interesting scenario for hardcore and mainstream hip hop fans to experience. The issues are rather or not Hollywood hip hop egos will conform to a template that promotes a greater good for the hip hop nation?

Personally speaking, I don't believe it's possible because hip hop breakup usually have long legs and a complex myriad of branches that usually include dangerous geographic parameters that most wouldn't want to get crossed up in. Too much talking, too many insults, too many ugly truths that folks didn't want out there, and just too much of a volatile mixture of a guy with a dangerous persona that has to be upheld.

I've been there as a member of the local underground hip hop gangsta rap group Crime Family Organization (CFO) aka the South Acres Crime Family. I remember the atmosphere of discontent when I left the group for a solo project in the early 2000's.


Hip hop breakups are no "game".
