50 Cent has revealed that Lil Wayne is at the top of his wish list of collaborators, when it comes to those he’s yet to work with

When it comes to artists he hasn’t yet collaborated with, 50 Cent has said that Lil Wayne is at the top of his want list.

When asked who Hip Hop artist he would want to collaborate with on a single that he hasn’t yet, the G-Unit boss spoke up about his ambitions of collaborating with Weezy in a recent interview with Capital XTRA.

“I didn’t work directly with Wayne,” he said to Shayna Marie and Robert Bruce, the hosts. “He’s among those who find Wayne to be well-trained.”

Although they have never collaborated on music, Fif said that he did travel with the legendary New Orleans rapper back in 2000 as part of the renowned Cash Money and Ruff Ryders tour.

DMX, Juvenile, and Eve headlined the 40-city arena tour, which also included Lil Wayne, Swizz Beatz, The LOX, Big Tymers, B.G., Drag-On, and Turk. But it was only a youthful 50 Cent as the opening act.

“I was on the Cash Money/Ruff Ryders tour — before they opened the curtain, as most people are unaware,” he said. “I was doing my stuff and folks were still coming in and out before the performance began. They believed me to be lightweight, but I eventually changed my mind.

Although 50 Cent is excited to work with Lil Wayne in the studio, a number of people in the music business have said that they would much prefer see the two giants of Hip Hop square off in the Verzuz ring.

Ebro Darden of Apple Music and Hоt 97 started a contentious controversy in March when they said that 50 would “wash” Wayne in a song-for-song competition.

“What 50 will do to Wayne is what Jadakiss did to Dipset. In reference to The LOX’s resounding triumph against the Harlem group in 2021, he wrote, “@yourboyeddie wasn’t outside in the mid-2000s.”

Young Guru, JAY-Z’s longtime engineer, quickly chimed in, mocking Ebro’s remarks.
