HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — 50 Cent has fired back at Donald Trump after the real estate mogul had less than stellar predictions for the hip-hop star's new reality show.
In a television interview earlier this month on New York station NY1, Trump called 50 Cent's new MTV show, "The Money and the Power," a "copy" of his own reality series, "The Apprentice." He then offered a grim prediction.
"It will fail because he's not Trump," he told the station.
While 50 Cent and Trump have been known to be friends over the years, the "In Da Club" singer did not take the bold prediction lightly.
"Donald Trump talking about my show and how it's a knockoff of 'The Apprentice'? He's crazy!" said 50 Cent on Sunday's final episode of MTV's "Total Request Live."
The exchange with Trump follows a "beef" the rapper had earlier this year with Taco Bell. In July, 50 Cent filed a lawsuit against the restaurant giant, accusing the fast-food chain of using his name without permission in an advertising campaign.
