The story of G-Unit begins in the gritty streets of South Jamaica, Queens, during the late 1990s and early 2000s.

While the crack epidemic ravaged the area, three young rappers—50 Cent, Tony Yayo, and Lloyd Banks—were honing their craft.

50 Cent had a tumultuous journey, surviving being shot nine times and facing a blacklisting in the music industry.

However, instead of giving up, he released the iconic mixtape “Guess Who’s Back,” which caught the attention of Shady Records and led to his signing.

With a contract that allowed him to start his own label, 50 Cent created G-Unit, bringing in his childhood friends Yayo and Banks.

G-Unit quickly became a force in hip-hop, releasing successful mixtapes and their debut album, “Beg for Mercy,” which went four times platinum.

As G-Unit’s popularity soared, they welcomed The Game into the fold, believing he would add to their success.

With the backing of Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine, The Game featured on several G-Unit tracks, including “How We Do” and “Hate It or Love It.”

During this period, 50 Cent claimed to have written a significant portion of The Game’s debut album, “The Documentary.”

However, tensions began to brew as The Game failed to acknowledge 50’s contributions, claiming the success was solely his own.

This lack of recognition led to growing animosity between the two, culminating in a series of public disputes.

The turning point in their relationship occurred during a radio interview where 50 Cent announced that The Game was no longer part of G-Unit.

He made it clear that The Game needed to stop claiming affiliation with the group, stating, “He’s not in my camp, not at all.”

This public dismissal led to a barrage of diss tracks from both sides, with The Game releasing “300 Bars” and 50 Cent responding with “Not Rich, Still Lying.”

The feud escalated to the point where both artists were willing to take their conflict to the streets.

In a candid moment, 50 Cent spoke about how his anger towards The Game had reached a boiling point.

He revealed that during their feud, he was prepared to take drastic measures, stating, “I almost murked The Game.”

This admission highlights the intensity of their rivalry, with 50 admitting that the situation could have turned deadly.

While he didn’t go into detail about specific incidents, it’s clear that the emotions surrounding their fallout ran deep.

The internal strife within G-Unit didn’t stop with The Game.

Young Buck, another key member, found himself on the receiving end of 50 Cent’s wrath after a series of disagreements.

In 2008, 50 publicly announced that Young Buck was out of G-Unit, citing issues with substance abuse and airing their private business.

This public dismissal marked another significant blow to the group’s unity, further fracturing the once-solid foundation of G-Unit.

As tensions rose, 50 Cent’s relationships with other G-Unit members also deteriorated.

Lloyd Banks and 50 had a falling out over Banks’ decision to turn down a collaboration with Eminem for his third album.

50’s frustrations with his crew’s work ethic led to public criticisms, comparing them to “milk” that spoils over time.

Tony Yayo also expressed his grievances, feeling betrayed by 50’s comments and the way the group’s dynamics had shifted.

By 2014, Tony Yayo publicly announced that G-Unit was officially breaking up, citing a lack of ambition among its members.

50 Cent’s frustrations mounted as he felt he was carrying the weight of the group, leading to a sense of disillusionment.

Despite attempts to patch things up with projects like “Beauty of Independence” and “The Beast is G-Unit,” the magic that once defined G-Unit was gone.

50 Cent’s comments about wanting to forget the G-Unit days drew backlash from fans who believed the group’s impact on hip-hop was undeniable.

While 50 Cent may wish to distance himself from the G-Unit era, the group’s influence remains etched in hip-hop history.

Their rise to fame, marked by iconic mixtapes and collaborations, shaped a generation of artists.

Fans continue to express their desire for a G-Unit reunion, recognizing the cultural significance of their contributions to the genre.
