AceShowbiz - The world continues to be captivated by the dynamic relationship between Kendrick Lamar and Drake, especially with Kendrick's new song and his anticipated Super Bowl halftime performance. Fans have debated everything from a rumored "Round 2" between the two artists to the controversy involving Lil Wayne snub from Super Bowl.

As someone with connections to both Kendrick and Drake, 50 Cent recently offered his insights on this complex situation during his appearance on "The Talk".

In what might come as a surprise to some, 50 Cent, who has previously shown support for Drake, expressed admiration for both Kendrick and Drake. Speaking on Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl slot, he stated, "I mean, it was a choice. As a solo artist right now, he's the guy," noting Kendrick's popularity and chart success with his current singles.

He emphasized that Kendrick fully deserves this opportunity and hinted that Kendrick could include some of his collaborators for his Super Bowl gig, potentially leaving room for a Lil Wayne guest appearance.

Addressing the rivalry between Kendrick Lamar and Drake, 50 Cent categorized it as "good for the culture." He explained, "Both Drake and Kendrick produced quality music faster because they had to compete with each other. That competitive nature made them go work and have responses. Hip-hop is still - it's not just a genre where you can just make a song and sit back. You have to make a song and be ready to make a song again right away with other artists."

Meanwhile, Lil Wayne shared his feelings about being overlooked for the Super Bowl slot in an emotional video. "It made me feel like s**t not getting this opportunity," he confessed. "And when I felt like s**t, you guys reminded me that I ain't s**t without y'all. And that's an amazing reality. So, like I said, it broke me. And I'm just trying to put me back together. But, my God, have you all helped me. Thanks to all my peers, my friends, my family, my homies on sports television and everybody repping me."

50 Cent's commentary not only highlights the competitive spirit driving Kendrick and Drake but also brings attention to the emotional impact these high-stakes opportunities can have on artists like Lil Wayne. As discussions continue, fans can appreciate the multifaceted dynamics and genuine passion involved in today's hip-hop scene.
