In spite of what has been happening in the world around us, 50 Cent has been having a wildly successful year. His book is selling well, accolades continue to pour in, fans are purchasing his wildly successful alcohol brands 'Branson' and 'Chemin de Roi', and the money keeps landing in his bank account. He has a lot on the go and has seemingly been unaffected by the unprecedented struggles that the majority of the world has faced this year.
50 Cent has smeared his success in the faces of others in the past, and he has just gone and done it again in, this time taking aim at Dr.Dre’s crumbling personal life. 50 Cent blasted Dr.Dre’s very messy divorce details on Instagram, and used this as an opportunity to plug his book 'Hustle Harder, Hustle Smarter'.
Exploiting Dr.Dre
50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis Jackson, has had a strained relationship with Dr.Dre for a few years now. Opting to amplify this dynamic, 50 Cent slammed Dre’s soon-to-be ex wife and put the heat on Dre himself, all in one swift swipe. They’re in the middle of a very messy divorce and 50 Cent seized this moment as an opportunity to add fuel to the fires that are already burning. Dre’s wife is trying to lay claims on his fortune and empire, and rather than leaving this issue in their hands by remaining silent, he has opted to shine a light on the couple’s turmoil and use this as a chance to plug his book.
50 Cent Thinks Dr. Dre Should “Hustle Harder, Hustle Smarter:
50’s book is about learning how to maximize your abilities and exceed your own expectations. According to the online description of this book, it is essentially a self-help guide that is designed to help readers “successfully achieve their own comeback and learn to flow with the changes that disrupt their own lives.”
Dre’s estranged wife, Nicole Young, is trying to lay claims on his very name, and ultimately on his brand, in an effort to pad her wallet with funds after her failed marriage. Fan comments indicate that they are absolutely stunned that she’d try to claw at things that do not belong to her, and that Dr. Dre achieved well in advance of their marriage, and the consensus is that fans are very much aligned with Dre on this one.
Sadly, it doesn’t seem that 50 Cent is being very discretionary, nor is he really helping Dre’s cause.
