50 Cent recently sat down for an interview with Hot 97, where he shared his thoughts on a variety of topics, including Tekashi 6ix9ine.

Before 6ix9ine's arrest, 50 Cent referred to the Brooklyn rapper as his "son," and he admitted during the interview that he thought the situation is sad. Around the 21:30 mark, Rosenberg asked if Fif was "sad how things played out," and he explained, "Yeah, I have never seen that before," adding that "the audience doesn't care." 50 Cent went on to state that if Tekashi made a hot enough song, he thinks people would listen.
