50 CENT IGNITES NEAR-RIOT
50 CENT re-ignited a bevy of hip-hop beefs during Hot 97's Summer Jam at Giants Stadium on Saturday. First, the bullet-riddled rapper enraged Hot 97 program director Tracy Cloherty by airing a video on stage that ridiculed the likes of Lil' Kim, Ja Rule, Ashanti and Joe Budden. After Cloherty yanked the video before it ended, 50 spotted former friend Bang 'Em Smurf, who was seated in the front row, and threw a wad of cash in his face in response to Smurf's claim that 50 owes him $150,000. Police in riot gear broke up the resulting scrum between 50 Cent's posse, G-Unit and Smurf's crew, the Silverback Guerrillaz. When he finally performed, 50 dissed headliner R. Kelly by changing the words to Kelly's song, "I don't see nothing wrong with a little bump and grind" to, "I don't see nothing wrong with urinating on little girls" — a reference to the R&B lothario's current legal woes. 50 then purposely performed well over his time to cut into Kelly's set. Then Kelly delayed things another 45 minutes when he refused to come out and perform until 50 Cent and his posse had left the arena.

And of course a severe pan in the old gray lady has been the death-knell for so many a promising hip-hop career.

I don't know why he's going at Kelly now, it seems really stupid to me, how do you beef with an R&B singer anyway? I bet that 50 was mad that G Unit didn't get to headline the show, just like when he walked onstage when Evanescence won the Grammy, he's such a crybaby about stuff like that.

Well, he probably felt kind of shitty about having this huge hit record and having to open for some guy who "don't see nothing wrong with urinating on little girls"
