Good interview. Kept it real professional. So, Lunatic, I'm interested in your opinion. What's your take on the beef? Who do you think won or is winning? If your opinion changed, how did you view Ross pre-beef and post-beef?

Who do you think won or is winning? If your opinion changed, how did you view Ross pre-beef and post-beef?I'll be honest. I think it's pretty even. As safe as that sounds, I really think so. 50's stuff has been HILARIOUS but "Mafia Music" (if u wanna call it a diss) is the best diss so far. I truly believe to properly win a beef without any argument, you need to put a halt to that man's mainstream career, meaning we need to see a slide in record sales (it's a mainstream point of view, but it is mine). We can go back and forth all day on which disses are better, but the proof is in the #s. Example: how Lil Flip went 2X platinum and then beefed with T.I. and sold 40K first week on the next album. Can 50 stop Ross from selling? I don't think so. Will see soon that Ross will do big #s. Can Ross stop 50 from selling? I don't think so. Call it a safe opinion, but I think this is pretty even.

I like the way you said that about it being even... Entertainment wise and resource wise 50 won all out... but best diss and the fact that he will still sell decent for these times makes me agree with you... We all know Ross is a bit delusional but his beats have made a very listenable album much to my own surprise I have to admit!

I always check sales. Because 50 ALWAYS makes a point to bring sales into beef and make it relevant in the beef. So if I go by 50's analogy, yes I am looking at Rick Ross' sales and things that in other beefs that don't matter to see if all that shit talking made a impact.
