THINGS THEY SAY: FIFTY ON CENSORSHIP!

THINGS THEY SAY: FIFTY ON CENSORSHIP!

Usually when 50 Cent opens his mouth, 9 times out of 10 he’s hating on someone or speaking nonsense. However, Fiddy has a valid point when it comes to a double standard with regards to censorship. While on tour in London, he recently said that nobody said anything about Britney Spears saying, “It’s Britney, bitch,” on the beginning of her first Blackout single, “Gimme More.” Let a rapper try to say that at the beginning of his song, chances are he might get censored. 50 went on tell MTV

,”I guess they have their rules that apply individually to each artist separately: ‘Oh no, he can’t say that, ’cause he feels like that about that person,’ ” he said. “But it’s not a rule that applies to everybody else. Matter of fact, my next single, I’m going to start it [with], ‘It’s Britney, bitch!’ “

50 just dropped a new video for his single “I Still Will” which he had to change from “I Still Kill” for broadcast purposes. (click here to view video!)

“It’s [renamed] ‘I Still Will’ for MTV,” he added. “It’s amazing because right after that [video plays], they’ll have a group on TV called the Killers. There’s always more pressure on hip-hop music. It’s the stepchild of entertainment. … In fact, my new project with Robert De Niro, Al Pacino and Donnie Wahlberg will be out April 12th called “Righteous Kill”. Nobody has a problem with that, but ‘I’ll Still Kill’ is the wrong title for a song. It’s easier to fight one CD, one artist at a time — that’s really what they’re doing.”

Wow…Fiddy is startin’ to wisen up. Looks like he’s going to be the new spokesperson for Rappers Against Censorship…if there is such a thing.
