50 Cent "wasted too much time" arguing with his rap rivals.
50 Cent regrets his rap feuds
The 49-year-old star has feuded with the likes of Ja Rule, Fat Joe, and Cam’ron during the course of his career, but 50 now looks back on those situations with some regret.
Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, the chart-topping rapper explained: "Look, I think we wasted too much time arguing, me and Fat Joe, me and Cam’ron.
"There’s other guys like Jadakiss, we cleared it up easier. But we wasted time because it was just the competitive nature. It wasn’t like we crossed paths and had real heat for each other. It went on more with Joe because he’s more like me, he’s closer in character to me.
"When we’re at odds, we are at odds, and we did that for a long time."
Earlier this year, Kendrick Lamar and Drake exchanged a series of high-profile diss records.
However, 50 believes that hip-hop is a "competitive" genre of music and that rap feuds can actually be healthy for the culture of hip-hop.
The New York-born star - whose real name is Curtis Jackson - said: "This is hip-hop. I think it’s competitive to a degree, obviously.
"Even Drake, his position and the attitude and his choices, those are 50 Cent choices. 'F*** it, everybody got to get it then.' When it becomes Drake versus Kendrick, it’s because it’s the only thing you can put up against Drake’s success."
What's more, 50 is convinced that the feud won't harm Drake's album sales.
He explained: "I don’t see a loss for Drake. The people who bought Drake material are going to buy Drake material when his next song comes out."
