50 Cent Takes Another Shot At Oprah Winfrey

By: Yves Erwin Salomon

Rapper 50 Cent has been taking shots at Oprah Winfrey in the media for some time, especially after the talk-show host put together a town hall meeting to discuss the problem with rap music following the Don Imus controversy. 50 Cent recently told Spin magazine, "She doesn't ever say anything that anybody from the ghetto is gonna ID with. Take a poll. You go out and find me some young black women who ID with Oprah ... She can escape the fact that she's black because she's a billionaire."

As for the heat rap music is taking, 50 Cent said, "I think it affects people a lot more to see a film where somebody realistically gets their head blown off than to listen to somebody rapping for three minutes."

In related news, 50 Cent will release his new album, Curtis, in September. The latest single from the project is "Amusement Park."
