50 & Robin Thicke
So what does 50 Cent really think of Master P? "Well Master P doesn't sell CDs anymore...You can tell him I said it. Cameras is rollin' right?...Curtis, June 26."
That was the response 50 gave when a reporter used the No Limit Records founder as an example of a rapper who has chosen to stop using racist and sexist language in their music.
Unfortunately and not surprisingly, 50 will not be one of those artists cleaning up his lyrics.
"Music is a mirror, and hip-hop is a reflection of the environment that we grew up in. It's the harsh realities that end up in the music. If I ask you to paint a picture of the American flag and not use the color red, you're gonna have a difficult time. To capture what we try to capture in the art form, I'm sure some conservative Americans can't [identify] with it because of their lifestyle and the way they've actually been brought up, and they haven't been exposed to those realities."
