50 vs. The World: Episode 78



G-G-G-G-G-G Get Packing!

You just witnessed the strength of street knowledge.
Now run and hide.

Remember when I posted this? (Scroll down to the section about 50 and Game beefin'. And shouts to DSeib.) Well, 50 Cent made sure that beef spilled over from wax to street. Apparently, 50 excommunicated Game from G-Unit tonight when 50 appeared on Hot 97. In retaliation, someone from the Game's posse may have shot someone from 50's. The genesis of the beef? Primarily, 50 was mad that Game didn't want to get involved in 50's synthetic beefs with Nas, Fat Joe, and Jadakiss. And so to recap, if you are friends with 50 Cent, you had better have some hot lines for a diss record prepared about whichever enemy 50 invents at any moment. Otherwise, you're finished. Now, the Game can either update his resume or come back like Ice Cube, although, after the very real violence tonight, Game might want to choose the former.

And of course, this story is everywhere because it's going nowhere. Big ups to Bol, O-Dub, Sean, Jay Smooth, and The Evil. Here's more from All Hip-Hop.


Deadwood is grimey like The Wire.
Do NOT cross this man, 50 Swearengen

What I really wanted to post about this evening was an odd occurrence on the subway. As I strode onto the S line (the shuttle for the uninitiated) this evening around nine, I thought I had suddenly become drunk because it appeared as though there was paint all over the seats and the interior sides of the doors. Upon further inspection after I entered the subway car, though, I realized that the car had been temporarily decorated to resemble some late-nineteenth-century stagecoach interior. Why? Because Deadwood is coming back and New York City sells out (although, I don't really care). Peep the photos, captured with my replacement camera phone:


Is this...

...a stagecoach?
