Money on my mind, bitches on my dick
16You can call yourself Curtis but your still 50 Cent
17Ain't worth half a dolla so holla
18I got Impalas that follow niggas home and pop collars like Patron bottles
Block noteMakes the confrontation explicit
Target50 Cent
MeaningWhat it means: In “You can call yourself Curtis but your still 50 Cent,” The Game addresses 50 Cent directly and makes the situation described in the quoted line the point of confrontation. Why it was said: The Game attacks 50 Cent and G-Unit after his removal from the group and the collapse of their public reconciliation. Naming or plainly addressing 50 Cent removes the safety of a subliminal and makes the quoted claim something the target can either answer or leave standing.
ContextThe Game attacks 50 Cent and G-Unit after his removal from the group and the collapse of their public reconciliation.

You a playa but you ain't The Game
94So keep on playin' the game 50
95Buck know what's real, Banks is next
Block noteForces the dispute into a direct contest
Target50 Cent
MeaningWhat it means: In “You can't beat 'em and you can't join 'em, huh?,” The Game addresses 50 Cent as an opponent who must prove the claims being made rather than rely on reputation. Why it was said: The Game attacks 50 Cent and G-Unit after his removal from the group and the collapse of their public reconciliation. The challenge narrows the argument to performance under pressure, where refusing or failing to answer can itself be presented as a loss for 50 Cent.
ContextThe Game attacks 50 Cent and G-Unit after his removal from the group and the collapse of their public reconciliation.
