:laugh:

50 crazy

[A Bathing Ape]

50 is getting corny

he basically tries to take ownership of anything negative, disrespectful towards him..in theory its a good idea..but its gettin out of hand now

next thing u know hes gonna be buying the rights to all the publishing of all the murder inc diss tracks/freestyles that ja and them made

[ChiTownStunna]

When's the last time you heard Game talking about G Unot???....it was a smart move to keep Game from printing the sh*t on shirts and what not but Game hasn't said anything about G Unot for a minute and still don't change teh fact that Game sh*t on that whole crew alone by himself...this beef is tired any f*ckin way...:thumbsdow

[AintNoneHigher]

:laugh:

50 crazy


:laugh:

[TheTruth87]

lol he finally figured out that the majority of real hip hop listeners hate his ass, and are supporting the g-unot movment

[MurdaGame]

....i didnt even get me a GUNOT shirt....

anyway if you guys remember Game said he was done with G-UNOT and he was selling it..I guess 50 took him up on that lol

it was on the Stop Snitchin, Stop trying DVD, its a classic by the way..cop it at yo local walmart

[BlackBoi0385]

50 is just too smart for the rap game he got too much power and control, but its going to be intresting to see him and TI drop around the same time. I mean 50 going to sell more but its all about the streets, and TI going to have the streets watch

game prolly hasnt used it because he got g'd out of owning the patent

you guys talking about "50 is wack and corny because he's taking ownership blah blah blah", are completely missing the point

you might even learn a business tip or 2 if you watch 50's moves

it should only be fair that one has ownership rights to anything used in commerce in reference to you or a commodity that you own

think business before rap, brilliant

Bytch move.

Whyte bytch move. Something paris hilton would do.

[hiphop's savior]

Y'all acting like you can go the the mall right quick and get a g-unot shirt or something. I've never seen any of them shirts in stores. 50 wasted money on a name, rediculous. If he bought rocawear,or sean jean or something, that would be a better story.

[Dr.Jr8]

game lost again

[bonaflied]

If this was a Forbes website we might care about "business moves".

But it's not. It's a rap site. So, from a rap perspective, 50 is acting like a b*tch.

rap is a business. trademarking is a business move. this thread technically isnt about rap in the first place, but rather business moves of 2 entertainers.
if you knew a few more ***** moves you might not bend your hand forward and say "puhleeze:( " when someone gets shut down in a way that isnt in a poem.

Hilarious I can't believe that Fif is this emotional over G-Unot that he had to spend money to stop getting sonned looks like Curtis took another loss Damn Fif is pilling up more losses than Dip Set SMH.

[boyboy]

If 50 enemies making 1/100 the amount he making and "keeping it real" while he getting sonned, then please help me get sonned too. SMH @ dumb ass Sohh coons.

[((ReFleX))]

LOL @ the curtis stans actually thinking this is ether...this does nothing but prove game has got into 50's head. this would be like jay z buying the word "camel.



G-unit LOST

[Keep_It_Hip_Hop_Fam]

he's childish when it comes to beef

getting Budden blackballed, Styles album pushed back

the smartest move he made was making money off of the Cam'ron diss videos to him on youtube

he has nothing to gain from G-Unot, he should've trademarked it a long time ago. Game definitely got under his skin.

[PUNCHO]
