When he isn’t balking over some minor money problems, 50 Cent likes to kick back and do what we all like to do: See what the Internet has to say about us.
For Fiddy, he found out the hard way that sometimes the Internet doesn’t support even tried-and-true smash hits, not even party anthem “Candy Shop.”
In the new video from Noisey — which is awesomely replete of audio, leaving more room for Fiddy’s deadpan responses — Fiddy fluctuates between bewildered and amused.
For those times of bewilderment, Fiddy shows his love for his favorite commentators by giving them fun pet names like “dumbass” and “idiot.” And when he gets more serious, like when users bring up racism and sexism, his responses are so straight-laced, you can’t help but agree. The line “women are pretty sweet” is so simple and plainspoken that you can’t help think, “Yeah, okay, maybe ‘Candy Shop’ really was all candy.”
Who knows. The man is obviously a wordsmith. We just may have been too dense for his metaphor this whole time.
