It's like overnight, the music that G-Unit was making wasn't hitting with the youf anymore. First Ye, then Wayne, then Rick Ross & Drake, G-Unit had already overexposed themselves by about 05 and couldn't keep up.

The Game defecting from G-Unit and the whole "a nigga get confoosed" phone call thing didn't help either.

Thug rap is just now making a comeback and 50 is too old and too rich to profit from it.

Plus I think he's just too loaded to give a fuck. Not a fan of Jay-Z's work this day, but you easily tell he just loves making music on a deeper level than 50 ever did.
