Cam'Ron
In a recent interview conducted while he shot his 50 Cent diss video "Cuurtis," Cam'ron revealed why he refers to the G-Unit honcho by his government name among other things.
"His name is Curtis. His legal name is Curtis Jackson," explained Killa Cam. "The real 50 Cent never snitched on anybody, never was happy when his accomplice got life in prison, he was a thorough dude and died thorough. That's why I call him 'Cuurtis.'
Cam'ron also mocked 50 for asking fans for help on an anti-Cam myspace page he alleges the G-Unit boss set up.
"He has a MySpace page tryin' to get people to write their best Cam'ron disses. Why do you need public assistance?" questioned Cam. "You know what, help him out all you want, y'all heard him, 'he ain't chubby like Ricky Ross.' What are you talking about?" [Watch the interview here]
As SOHH previously reported, the bad blood between both artists began when they got into an argument on Angie Martinez's Hot 97 radio show two weeks ago.
50 would throw the first blow releasing the "Funeral Music" video on Friday (February 9). The clip featured a hearse with the words "Cam'ron's Career" written on it and mocked the rapper's shooting in Washington D.C. last year.
Cam responded the following day with his song "Cuurtis," which took shots at 50's appearance and stressed that the G-Unit boss is a snitch, while the video hit the internet yesterday (February 15). The clip featured Cam'ron emerging from a coffin at his funeral and hitting the streets to air out 50 Cent. In different scenes of the video, various people on the streets including a police officer, echo the song's chorus, "Cuurtis."

Young Buck
G-Unit rapper Young Buck is preparing to give fans what they've waited nearly three years for when his album Buck The World drops on March 20. In part one of this SOHH Exclusive Buck Marley talks about why he's the "Clean Up Man," his upcoming MTV reality show, and 50's beef with Cam.
Boasting production from Dr. Dre, Eminem, Hi-Tek, Lil Jon, Jazze Pha and Three 6 Mafia, Buck the World features guest appearances from Lyfe Jennings, Trick Daddy, Snoop Dogg, Bun B, 8Ball & MJG, 50 Cent, T.I., Young Jeezy and Pimp C. Buck also steps outside of his genre with collaborations from Kymani Marley and Linkin Park vocalist Chester Bennington.
"I got a record with Chester Bennington titled "Slow Your Roll." It will probably be my third single. It's probably the realest record I ever wrote in my life, every word, every rhyme, every lyric when you hear it it's true and I guarantee you will lose your breath," Buck told SOHH.
Among the album's 19 tracks is a song titled "Clean Up Man," a nickname given to Buck by Dre, 50 and Jimmy Iovine in recognition of his ability to connect with his audience.
"I really put it in on this record. You have to be real good to make 50 Cent and Jimmy Iovine call you the 'Clean Up Man.' I know I did the damn thing, because I never really prepared myself as much as I did for the record, not behind no special reason, but behind me wanting success period. Not because of Game, [Fat] Joe or none of that shit, I've been waiting a long time to be in the position I'm in," Buck said.
Buck's newfound position comes with some "real" TV time, via his upcoming MTV series.
"It's based on my life behind the music. I'm showing you what's going on in my life -- a lot of rappers rap lives of other artists and lives of they homeboys. My reality show is narrated through my records. You'll see these characters come to life that I'm speaking on, whether it's my Auntie that's in the penitentiary dying of AIDS or whatever it might be. It will be 16 episodes, we don't have a set air date yet, but you can look forward to it sometime around Summer," Buck revealed.
Asked about 50's current multimedia tug-o-war with Cam'Ron, Buck made it clear he plans to stay out of the drama.
"I ain't fucking with that shit. That shit is crazy. It is what it is. I think 50 can handle it on his own, and at the end of the day Jim Jones done called me and let me know how he look at shit and I let him know how I look at it," Buck told SOHH.
The Cashville rapper added that he won't be airing any rap beef on Buck the World.
"You won't hear none of that diss shit on this album, none towards Game, or Jadakiss, or Fat Joe," Buck declared. "There is enough put out from my end and they end that the fans don't even want to hear that shit. There is already enough for the streets to decide who's real, who's fake, what's real and what's fake."
Stay tuned for Pt. 2 of this SOHH Exclusive where Young Buck discusses his troubles with the law, the end of his record ban and how his life mirrors Tupac's.
Monica's fiance producer Rodney Hill is getting caught up in a Naomi Campbell syle story. At Jeezy's party this weekend in the ATL celebrating his new platinum status, Rodney (Rock) and Monica were chillin' in VIP when a "fan" got real rambunctious with Rock and security had to put her out. Now this woman is claiming that Rock beat and punched her and she's posting pics all over the internet to prove it.
Rock says he would never hit a woman and noone in the packed club and VIP saw him do anything except her two friends. Her story rings of groupie love. Rock told media sources that this stan was all over him while Monica was not around at the time and reached into his pockets and crushed his $2000 Cartier shades. So he got heated but security snatched her up before he could do anthing. I actually interviewed Monica yesterday and she said she would bust a chick in the face before Rock would. She says this chick only sees dollar signs.

Ciara
SOHH recently caught up with Ciara in Las Vegas during All Star Weekend to clear up rumors of her dating G-Unit rapper 50 Cent.
Rumors of a budding relationship between the two started when New York's Daily News reported that Ciara was spotted in LeFrak City hiding in the back seat of 50's car, trying not be seen by onlookers. One source even described the pair as "a new underground couple."
I was in LA getting ready for my video 'Like A Boy,' so that was impossible," Ciara told SOHH exclusively. "He's cool people. I got a lot of respect for him. We worked together on my album. We did a song called 'Can't Leave him Alone' and he's just an amazing person, a very hard working person and there's a lot of great things you can say about him, but we weren't in Lefrak City or wherever that was."
"Like A Boy" is the second single from Ciara's certified platinum CD, The Evolution.
Daily Hip-Hop News:50 Cent's Baby Mama "Out to Get Rich"

50 Cent
50 Cent is reportedly taking steps to protect his fortune from the mother of his son, Marquise.
According to New York's Daily News, 50 recently filed papers in Family Court to help clarify child support arrangements paid to his child's mother. While 50 (born Curtis Jackson) has always provided financial support for his child, he and Marquise's mother, Shaniqua Tomkins, previously lacked an official arrangement. Friends told the Daily News the recent move was prompted by Tompkins' demanding displays of greed.
"It was just getting so out of hand. It was driven by greed. He felt it was necessary to get a court order making clear just what his responsibility is. He took matters into his own hands. It's usually the woman who files. But he wants to do the right thing," an unidentified friend of 50 told the Daily News. "50 has always provided for his kid. His son's mother is now making unreasonable demands, which seem to have no limits."
50 and Tompkins once lived together, but the couple parted ways five years ago. According to one friend, 50 purchased a home for Tompkins in Long Island "so Marquise could be in a good school district."
"He's paying a lot of child support. He takes [Marquise] on vacations. He just took him to L.A., where they saw Eminem together. He met Justin Timberlake and Timbaland in Miami. He took him to the NBA All-Star Game in Vegas. He sees his son very frequently. When he's on the road, he brings him out," 50's friend was quoted in the Daily News.
"Curtis puts his son's needs first. His son is well loved and taken care of. Anything else is a private family and legal matter," said Cindi Berger, spokeswoman for 50.
Sources are currently speculating that Tompkins may seek palimony. She recently hired upscale lawyer, Raoul Lionel Felder, who told the Daily News, "Ms. Tompkins is going to get more than fifty cents, I can tell you that."
