AllHipHop.com: Well, what about M.O.P.? Even Dame recently expressed ideas that they were still signed to him…

50 Cent: Yeah, well, you know, some people just don’t – they don’t want to let go. Dame realized he lost in that situation. M.O.P.’s talent, like some of the lyrical content matches my albums, the M.O.P. record. It’s just, well the difference is the market and the promotion. And I feel like I’ve done a great job of marketing myself to the point that my first album, every album that’s been released through me period, has scanned over 1.5 million records.

AllHipHop.com: How do you intend to market them? That’s a challenge…

50 Cent: I put them in the gym. As far as that, there’s certain things that you know. Like I’ve watched artists and I pay attention to the game, period. I watched D’Angelo put out a bad album, and it sold because he was in condition. The song itself was called “Untitled” for Christ’s sake. It’s those dramatic changes so it’s obvious. If you can physically – forget about music. Forget about whatever you know about music, right? And just turn to yourself for a second. Generally speaking about women, right, if a woman can look at you and say she likes you before you open your mouth. As soon as you say the right thing to her it’s a go. I feel like if generally people look at you and like what you’re saying before you open you’re mouth, when you say the right thing they go, “I like him.”

AllHipHop.com: What about the M.O.P. sound? That was always a discussion-topic while the Roc album brewed…

50 Cent: Well, I take the ante up. I can take records, you know, they got classic material already that they’re ahead of me doing the deal with them. It’s like I don’t want to alter who they are creatively as an artist. Because what they’ve done in the past is what made them appealing to me. So, you know, I want them to create the right records and I’ll help, I mean, I’m executive producing the album so I’m going to go pick and make the record, they’re going to have the best producers in the world on the album. They’ve definitely got materials, Dr. Dre, Eminem, The Neptunes, Timbaland. As they enter the formats that their music hasn’t made it to before, like Top 40 and Pop radio, which has been that similar, look, Game’s record wouldn’t have sold what it sold, if I wasn’t on it.
