50 Cent Takes Swipe At Damon Dash

50 Cent has been one of the biggest names in the rap game for the past 20 years and during that time he’s interacted (and beefed) with everyone you can possibly think of. Recently he opened up about a quick comment from Dame Dash that seems to have left a sour taste in his mouth and in true Fiddy form, he comes off a tad bit petty when reflecting on the moment.

In a recent clip making the rounds on social media, 50 Cent sits down with Gillie Da Kid and Wallo for their Million Dollaz Worth Of Game podcast and recalled a moment in time following his groundbreaking record deal with Shady Records in 2002 in which he was paid a cool million dollars to sign with Eminem and Dr. Dre. At the time such a signing bonus was unheard of, but being that 50 Cent was the hottest rapper on the free agent market thanks to his G-Unit mixtape series record labels were trying to woo him to their companies, but Eminem and Dr. Dre ended up with the winning bid.

After he signed the deal, 50 Cent clearly remembers that Damon Dash dismissing the amount of money he was paid as basically chicken feed and that seems to be something that bugs 50 to this day. Replying to Wallo about how much he was paid to sign to Shady Records, 50 Cent recalled, “A million dollars… and the only person that pointed out that a million dollars was no money was Damon Dash and he has no money now.”

Well damn, 50. Tell them how you really feel.

Reflecting on Dame’s comments 50 continued “I only felt that because he said ‘That ain’t no money. After you get your watch, chain, look out for the homies… it’s nothing.’ And I was like, ‘I’m from 134th Street. B, nah that’s a lot of money. I think I hit the lotto. How you gonna say that’s no money? I just never forgot that because of how that felt.”

Though that was a big damn deal back in 2002, at the time Jay-Z and Damon Dash had the rap game in a chokehold with their Roc-A-Fella Records imprint and were probably making millions of dollars on a weekly basis. So of course that was just pocket change to someone like Damon Dash.

Unfortunately for Dame, he’s since seen his net worth plummet past the basement and has recently been ordered to sell his stake in Roc-A-Fella Records to satisfy some outstanding debt.

Will he reply to 50 Cent’s story is anyone’s guess, but we’re not sure he’ll want to open up that can of worms as we all know Fiddy lives to troll any and everyone who he feels gets out of pocket with him.

Check out 50 Cent’s talk about that moment and let us know your thoughts on the situation below.
