50 Cent, Tavis Smiley Interview

I was curious to know how he would present himself and how he would respond to his critics. Naturally, Tavis wasn't too hard on him, LOL!

Judge for yourself...

Its a good interview, i think just the fact that he said "more people ask him it feels to be shot than talking aobut being successful" shows the culture, and how we all look at each other and paint people into a corner.

Yeah i thought that was funny, not because it was Marv , but the fact he has security people and he was just doggin Jay Z in an interview for having security people at shows, showing up for a song then leaving, not being in the crowd, things like that.

I agree, that was very telling, Also when he says that injecting positivity into his music got him negative feedback from his core fanbase.

It was interesting to see another side of him other than the thug image he projects. I think that's what Tavis was aiming for.
