On February 14th, 50 Cent took to Twitter and claimed that Jimmy Iovine and Dr. Dre are mad that he launched Sleek, his own line of headphones, in competition with Dr. Dre’s popular “Beats By Dre” line with Monster.

A few days later, 50 Cent tweeted that he had made amends with Interscope CEO Jimmy Iovine, but there was no mention of Dr. Dre.

On Tuesday, Dr. Dre appeared to take a stab at 50 Cent’s line of headphones as he was leaving a restaurant in downtown Los Angeles.

When asked about 50′s tweets or the beef, Dre acted as if he never even heard of 50′s line of headphones, which is almost impossible due to the promotion surrounding 50′s line.

“Headphones? I never heard of his headphones,” an irritated looking Dr. Dre told a cameraman. Neither one of the headphones are studio quality headphones. They are for the common listener and very over priced. If you want studio headphones go to a a Sam Ash or Guitar center and get some real quality headphones.

The Game has once again aired out Kat Stacks, hurling disses at the self-proclaimed rap groupie via Twitter.

In his messages, Game blasts Stacks’ image and role as a mother.

“@ihatekatstacks B*TCH, wantin u 2 catch AIDS & die is probably the only thing me & @50cent got n common. Go swallow a teaspoon of rat poison,” Game tweeted Thursday (August 26).

“@ihatekatstacks B*tch you are a tour bus. “ya p*ssy smell like the exhaust, ya a**hole BLOWN like a tire & you can fit 30 n*ggas in you.”

“@ihatekatstacks all you do is fly around America suckin d*cks 4 FREE.”

“da bureau of child welfare got ya son & instead of fightin 4 him back, u suckin wee wee’s & tweetin. #deadBEATmommysomebody help this b*tch”

“& the sh!t u just said about my grandma RIP gone get u jumped by 6 buff midget b*tches. ah would tell u stay low, but thats where they’ll b”

“@ihatekatstacks One day you gone Internally Drown in all that cum in ya stomach. More kids in ya stomach then all the projects in New York.” (Game’s Twitter)

Stacks proceeded to defend herself and taunted Game with a handful of tweets.

“Your mom taught me how to suck d*ck & your dad taught me how to get money when a d*ck up my a** @thegame,” she tweeted yesterday.

“B*tch what are you talking my son is at home with me go f*ck your dead grandmother @thegame.”

“f*g with butterfly tatted on ur face claiming its for dead wh*re grandmother why did u cover it up then @thegame.

“i dont know whos face looks worse, urs or ur dead grandmother 6 feet under @thegame.” (Kat Stacks’ Twitter)

Despite being associated with Dre during his days as a G-Unit member, Buck said he has not gotten in touch with him for over three years.

“Dr. Dre is an individual who I wish I heard from at some point in time because his voice in my situation would means a lot. He don’t have to on my side or [50 Cent's] side, but just say something, bro. I even told Game to say ‘what’s up’ to Dre for me, but I haven’t heard anything..I haven’t received an email or spoken to Dre in three years…I haven’t heard from Dr. Dre or Eminem… not to say my situation is any part of their business but at a point in time I was sitting in front of these dudes. And I’m not looking for them to take sides or anything, but it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out what is being done to me from their artist.”

50 Cent recently called into a Def Jam conference call between Shyne and various media outlets.

During the 3 minute clip, 50 Cent interrupts Shyne’s conference call multiple times and impersonates a DJ asking questions of Shyne, before launching into a Mel Gibson-like tirade, continuously ordering the rapper to “shut up.”

During an interview with MTV.com, Shyne addressed the viral video clip, which is making headlines across the world.

“Like that’s like an all-time low,” Shyne said. “I didn’t know son was that desperate. he’s gone from confidential informant, a witness protection program dude, to getting order of protections on motherf**kers, now he’s a stalker. I was in shock.”

Shyne expressed shock at 50 Cent’s antics and said he didn’t think the G-Unit rapper would sink that low, especially since 50 was trying to make “peace” surrounding their beef.

“He’s been reaching out to one of my generals in the street begging for peace…so he caught his voice too, so it was after the fact,” Shyne said. “I thought it was somebody having a bad day that wanted to know about the situation. It wasn’t until after everything was finished, that motherf**kers at Def Jam was like ‘yo that was Boo Boo, that was Hawaii 5-0.’ Then he puts it out like he was calling and talking reckless. He’s a creep.”

In a recent interview, Buck said the conflict would eventually come to an end.

“It’s on the way,” Buck said about his next official album when we caught up with him recently in Houston. “The music speaks for itself. I’m everywhere when it comes to online — I throw music out. People are already aware of my situation … the whole fight with the contract thing. It’s about to get real, real interesting, people. I will say that much…If you ain’t focused on Buck, now is the time to get focused on Buck,” he continued. “With this whole contract situation, we really gonna see what this was really about. Y’all mark my words: I’ll be back to MTV to finish this when it all ends. At the end of the day, I appreciate the people that’s sticking right there through the fight I’m going through as far as my contract situation.”

Foxy Brown gives Minaj respect for holding her own.

“What’s funny, I actually applaud Nicki for it,” Foxy said in an interview. “I think she’s doing an incredible job of branding herself. When you’re a boss b*tch, you give it up. Send her a Chanel bag or something.

If you’re winning, you’re wining. That’s just how I see it I’m not caught up in the beef at all I’m not even in that category. I’m still one of the youngest female rappers in the game. Other female rappers may feel like that because they’re older, but I myself am still young. I don’t feel that. I applaud what she’s doing.” Im like who really cares ? Who in the hell is going to buy a Nicki Minaj CD ? A 15 year old teen ? Maybe,but I dont see no real hip hop head standing in line at bestbuy with a Nicki Minaj CD in his hand. Not gonna happen !

Yayo threatened to “set-up” Game if he was ever given an opportunity to re-join the Unit.

“You know what I think would be cool if Game comes back,” Yayo asked XXL Mag staff during a live UStream broadcast. “I’d set him up and smoke him on the tour bus or something. Or throw him off the tour bus or run him over with the tour bus or poison his food, or, I don’t know, something. I want him to get back so I can set him up…I don’t see nobody I had beef with. We’re running around doing our thing and they’re running around doing nothing. I don’t want to be friends with Game. I don’t want to be friends with that guy. That guy’s bi-polar. He’s gonna say ‘F*ck G-Unit’ tomorrow. He’s crying one day saying, ‘Oh, hip-hop,’ then he said, ‘Oh, I want to be with the Unit,’ then he said, ‘I don’t want beef with n*ggas,’ then ‘F*ck Yayo.’ I don’t got time for that man.” (XXL Mag)

COSIGN

Of course, that’s always been around, but it was usually confined to the Village. Artists have always had the opportunity to influence the culture, but now it’s the other way around: They’re trying to look like their audience to attract their audience. Now you can’t tell the difference between a Led Zeppelin fan and a hip-hop fan.”

Speaking in an interview with radio personality Tim Westwood, Fif said he never sparked rap beefs.

“I don’t have…issues with people until they say things that make me feel like they want a problem,” said the Queens rapper. “Point to one situation that I’ve been in, one altercation where I was competing with another artist that I’ve started…Ain’t that hip-hop? There’s always been battling. It’s always been a part of the culture. In the future, because I’ve been kind of captured as the actual bad guy on some level because they watch me compete and win and it feels like it was effortless, I will make a point to not even respond. I will just look and watch people when they say things.”
