He added that he doesn’t like to escalate tensions with 50 as a result. \u201cThat\u2019s why I don\u2019t sit here and promote the negativity between me and 50,\u201d Ja explained. \u201cI don\u2019t give a f*ck about that sh*t. I wish that Black man luck, man. Go ahead and do you, man. Get your money, man. But do right, do better. Because all you do is f*cking sh*t on other Black people too.
