Rapper 50 Cent is known for publicly starting "beefs" with Ja Rule, but this time he seems to have a problem with his fellow G-Unit colleague, The Game.

"50 Cent is fighting a war and if his boys aren't with him, they get kicked to the curb," said junior Tiffany Hopkins.

The feud reportedly started when The Game made a comment about not wanting to be involved in 50's attempt to diss Fat Joe, Jadakiss, and Nas on his new record called Piggy Bank.

"Nas is one of my friends and Jada's a real homie, 50's beef is 50's beef and I really don't know where it all stems from," stated The Game on an interview on Hot 97.

Two days later at the same radio station 50 Cent announced that he was going to be dropping The Game from G-unit because of his disloyalty.

Soon after that comment a shooting took place outside the radio station, leaving one man wounded. 50 was immediately rushed out of the building by security.

Police believe that The Game's entourage heard 50 Cent's comments on the radio and decided to go to the radio station, that's where they came face to face with some o 50's clique resulting in an outburst of violence.

On a promotion appearance on MTV's TRL for his new album Massacre, 50 Cent downplayed the entire situation.

"I think it's unfortunate that those situations take place," said 50 on TRL.

But with 50's seemingly desperate efforts to bring such negativity, it leaves many wondering if he's trying to be the next Tupac Shakur or is it all a gimmick for the publicity to sell his records.
