50 Cent thinks Jay-Z is too old to continue touring.

He may be tired of running around and negotiating each individual deal. The deal would be actually putting that in someone else's hands."I'm comfortable doing it the way I've been doing it. The difference between him and me is obvious. "He's married to Beyonce, he's getting ready to be 40 years old. He's in a different place, he might not want to run around, and even touring may soon be out of the question. He might want to be in the office and run one of the companies."50 also claimed another hip-hop star, 'Missing You' singer P. Diddy, has not released a good song for years - but says he is still one of the leading lights of rap music.He added to KING-mag.com: "Puffy has the best model for staying relevant, because he does it without a song. He's been able to maintain an interest and stay in a space to executive produce television and film projects, and stay relevant to hip-hop culture. "What was the last record that made you feel like, 'Oh, my God, Puffy is on fire?' You don't need it."

This dude is hillarious! He does a lot of hating to be a rich man. But really what was the last song 50 made that was hot. He's the kind of rapper that if you heard one of his songs then you've basically heard them all. The Magic Stick and The Candy Shop are the same song with different lyrics.
