[edit] The Interview

On February 1, 2007 50 Cent appeared as a guest on Hot 97 of Angie Martinez. While talking about his upcoming album and other artists Angie informed 50 that were people on the line calling in to talk to 50. One of these people was Styles P of D-Block ^[1]. After the Styles P conversation ended mostly peacefully Angie informed 50 that more people were calling in. The next person who came onto the air was Cam'Ron of The Diplomats. The conversation started out peacefully but soon escalated into argument as 50 claimed that Koch Records was a 'graveyard'. After some incipient tension, the conversation precipitously changed into a rhubarb about how many record sales from their respective artists Lloyd Banks and Jim Jones. Cam'Ron ridiculed Lloyd Banks for selling 300,000 records on a major label when Jim Jones sold as much while having a lesser fan base and being on an independent record label. Angie Martinez later had to cut Cam'ron off from the conversation due to his frequent use of profanity ^[2]. However, after Cam'ron got cut off the air, and 50 Cent left Hot97, Jim Jones called in and tried to clear up Cam's comments.^[3]

[edit] 50 Cent's response

50 Cent released the diss record "Funeral Music" aimed at Cam'ron at 12 midnight on DJ Kay Slay's myspace page on Thursday, February 8th. The song references Cam'ron's involvement in Koch Records as a sign of his career being over, and that Cam'ron is no longer fit to lead Dipset. He also states that Jim Jones should lead instead.^[4]

After Cam'ron heard Funeral Music he made a song called Curtis in response to the song.^[5]
