50 Cent's album, Curtis , was initially due to hit stores last month but was pushed back to September 4 .It was pushed back again last week to September 11.
50 Cent has a history of throwing jabs at Kanye. In various interviews, the G-Unit honcho has questioned West's sexual orientation and described the rappers music as non-threatening,
"They like Kanye West because he's a safe ni99a," 50 said in a 2006 interview with Hot 97. "It's better for your kid to wanna dress weird and just have a whole other vibe."
"[Kanye] said something in an interview one time that made me think about it. He said because he was raised by his mother, he has feminine ways," he added "That right there is who Kanye West is to me. That statement is stuck in my head. He said it like he meant it".
