50 Cent is known to troll, and when the question 'who is the most overrated hip hop star of all time' came out during his interview on Andy Cohen's Watch What Happens Live, it seemed inevitable that he'd take the opportunity to stir up some controversy.
Fif instead pulled out a fairly conservative answer to the question, quoting Jay Z's line from "So Apalled", "would you rather be underpaid or overrated?", and answering that Jigga would call himself the most overrated.
Since 50 often has ulterior motives, from dissing Llyod Banks and Tony Yayo to drum up hype for the G-Unit reunion, to the theory that he intentionally flubbed his recent first pitch at a Mets Game, chances are he picked a safe answer that would get picked up (or sensationalized) by the media. And here we are.
