50 Cent reflected on borrowing parts from a specific Nelly song to create a track for Lloyd Banks.
Speaking with Ebro, Peter Rosenberg, and Laura Stylez on Hot 97, the G-Unit head honcho explained, “I would be able to look at someone else’s record and be able to make my version of the record when the right production came around.”
“When Nelly was going ‘It’s getting hot in here so take off all your clothes’…That’s how Banks did ‘On Fire.’ I wrote the chorus for that.”
50 continued to detail, “It’s the same record. It’s just new melodies, new production and let Banks do it.”
What’s more? 50 Cent shared that he gave advice to Lil Durk, who is currently in jail facing accusations of murder-for-hire. 50 recounted advising Durkio to be cautious with members of his OTF crew, sharing Durk’s surprising reaction.
