My Opinion:

As far as the beef between 50 cent and Joe Budden is concerned, Joe Budden won the battle. Lyrically 50 cent would not want it with Mr. Buddens.

As far as 50 cent goes, i don't believe he is bragging. For all the real hustlers you would feel where 50 cent is coming from. In this day and age where everyone wants to be the most hardcore nigga, they finally have someone to look up to. It wuz just wise for 50 cent to use his misfortunate accident and turn it into something positive. Even if he is not who he says he is, he is one hell of a business man becuz he is supplying the streets with what they want; and what they want is street shit.

Thats just my opinion.
