I guess Fifty wanted to generate sub pub for his new album!

NEW YORK (AP) -- Police are investigating a shooting at a Manhattan hip-hop radio station where rapper 50 Cent was making an on-air appearance.

The victim, a 24-year-old Los Angeles man, was shot in the left leg. Officials said he was taken to St. Vincent's Hospital and was listed in stable condition early Tuesday.

According to Newsday, the injured man was a member of 50 Cent's entourage. The newspaper reported that the shooting happened after 50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis Jackson, announced he was dropping his protege The Game from his hip-hop clique, G-Unit.

The shooting occurred around 10 p.m. Monday in the lobby of WQHT-FM, or Hot 97, police spokesman Sgt. Kevin Farrell told The Associated Press. 50 Cent, who was at the station promoting the upcoming release of his new album "The Massacre," was not harmed in the incident.

No arrests had been made.

Spokespeople for 50 Cent and his label, Interscope Records, were not available for comment Monday.

In 2001, rapper Lil' Kim's entourage engaged in a shootout at the station that left one man wounded. Her bodyguard was sentenced to 12 years in prison for that shooting.

being shot in the leg isn't exactly a miss though.

If I was hiring bodyguards I'd demand better.

I could hit a rabbit at 60 yards with iron sights when I was smaller than the rifle. These bozos can't even get a kill shot with in the confines of a radio station with an automatic. And I bet 50 Cent's bodyguards are much bigger than a rabbit.

Fucking useless. These so called gangster better not give me any shit or Da Bunny Killah will pop them right between the eyes.

It's official. Black History month is over, but Negroes obviously paid absolutely no attention. Y'all heard of Tupac, right? Biggie? If we learn nothing else from their lives and deaths, we should at least clearly understand that this game ain't worth dying over.

If a tree falls in the woods and nobody is there to hear it does it make a sound?

If a post is put in the rap/hip hop forum and nobody is there to read it does anyone care?
