🚨 MAINO SAYS 50 CENT’S PEN GAME HAS DECLINED… JIM JONES, FABOLOUS & JOE BUDDEN GO SILENT! 👀 During a recent episode of the Let’s Rap About It podcast, Maino sparked an interesting debate when he brought up 50 Cent while discussing rappers who were once nice but have lost their lyrical ability over the years. Maino specifically named 50 Cent as an example, saying he believes 50’s pen game has declined when it comes to the actual skill of rapping. 🗣️ Maino: “50 Cent.” The comment immediately caught everybody’s attention, with Jim Jones, Fabolous and guest Joe Budden seemingly going quiet before pushing back on Maino’s take. Joe Budden disagreed, arguing that he never viewed 50 Cent as someone whose greatest gift was necessarily his lyrical ability. He also didn’t believe 50 had fallen off as a rapper. Maino clarified that he wasn’t talking about record sales, hitmaking, songwriting or 50’s success in television. He was specifically talking about the skill of rapping. ➡️ Maino also argued that genuinely lyrical rappers should continue improving as they get older because their vocabulary, experiences and overall perspective develop. ➡️ He even brought up Jim Jones as an example of someone who has improved over the years. ➡️ Maino also spoke about feeling underrated throughout his career, saying he’s always believed he was better than the credit people gave him.

I was called an African in high school in the '80s Before I even met a new and African personally But I was called that because people in my high school knew my brothers who were born in Jamaica But I was young then and being called an African didn't hit me as hard as they wanted it too Am my circle which was made up of 95% black American Looked at me as no different than them It wasn't until the fake black agenda called the FBA came out that I became aware of afrophobia and xenophobia in America
