50 Centand Oprah Winfrey lets bygones be bygones and sat down for an intimate conversation. The episode of Oprah’s Next Chapter where Fif and O have their intimate sit down in the home of the former’s grandparents aired yesterday.
Peep Ferrari and Winfrey have a wide ranging convo that touches on the Queens rapper’s runaway success, 50 Cent vs. Curtis Jackson and even their “feud.” “I would see moments where you would discuss your feelings on the culture, and everything that was wrong with the culture was what was on my CD,” said Fif.
Also, the Queens rapper gets emotional when discussing being raised by his grandmother (the clip on the next page). Nice, insightful interview right here. “Either pray or worry, don’t do both.”
“I only do it one time. I don’t – either pray or worry, dont do both. If you gonna sit there and say a prayer and then worry, then how does God feel about you? He knows you sitting there worrying.”
While the two had a nice conversation at 50?s grandmother’s house, in the past, the pair did not get along.
50 even named his dog after Oprah and it was widely believed that Oprah did not like rappers.
Rappers Ice Cube, Ludacris, 50 Cent and others chastised Oprah for supposedly turning a cold shoulder to Hip-Hop.
But many were mistaken as Oprah has fondness for several Hip-Hop songs.
“I listen to some hip-hop. You know, I’ve been accused of not liking Hip-Hop, and that’s just not true. I got a little 50 on my iPod. I really do. ‘Love In Da Club.’ – Love that, and you know, love Jay-Z, love Kanye, love Mary J,” told Ed Lover on New York’s Power 105 back in 2006.
The two-hour interview is broken down into two parts and debuts this upcoming Sunday (June 10th) at 9 p.m., EST, on the OWN cable network.
