He wrote the song, but it was released on Atlantic on Lil Kim's album, not G-Unit or Interscope. That would be like the producer of Irreplaceable suing Ne-Yo for not getting paid by Columbia- wouldn't make no damned sense, would it? Same situation here. 50 was just the writer of the song. He don't have no control over who the hell Atlantic pays, unless he (50) didn't give the guy producer's credit on the song. Once his name is in the credits as the producer, it is out of 50's hands and it is all on Atlantic's accounting department when/if everyone gets paid.http://www.allhiphop.com/stories/news/archive/2007/09/14/18588499.aspx#18589164Fri, 14 Sep 2007 11:55:26 GMT0ab0b95d-286f-42d5-ba9b-6086957539ea:18589164HoodgrownThe royalties should come from Lil Kim since it was on HER album not him. <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br>Cartel <br>HOODGROWN MAGAZINE - A Different Kind Of Hip Hop Magazine <br><a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://www.hoodgrownonline.com">http://www.hoodgrownonline.com</a> <br> <br>MyHood <br><a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://www.hoodgrownrecords.com/myhood">http://www.hoodgrownrecords.com/myhood</a> <br>The Adventures Of An Underfunded Hip Hop Label In It’s Quest To Be Seen And Heard! <br> <br><a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://www.myspace.com/hoodgrown">http://www.myspace.com/hoodgrown</a> <br><a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://www.youtube.com/hoodgrown">http://www.youtube.com/hoodgrown</a>http://www.allhiphop.com/stories/news/archive/2007/09/14/18588499.aspx#18589176Fri, 14 Sep 2007 12:01:22 GMT0ab0b95d-286f-42d5-ba9b-6086957539ea:18589176JustRelaxThis has nothing to do with 50 Cent and Lil Kim, well it does but its really an accounting issue.

This song wasnt even slatted to be released on her album. The song just missed 50's album deadline and was put on kims album. Kim had to pay alot of royalties and publishing rights to have that song on her album. So this has alot to do with 50 cent. http://www.allhiphop.com/stories/news/archive/2007/09/14/18588499.aspx#18597792Sun, 16 Sep 2007 16:57:55 GMT0ab0b95d-286f-42d5-ba9b-6086957539ea:18597792SniperKGrumpy said: <br> <br>Hell, you mufukas be suing 50, Kim, her plastic surgeon, Vitamin Water, Dre, Jimmy, and Em and whoever else you could if you thought it would get you your money. <br>^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ <br> <br>LOL...damn, why stop there? &nbsp;Cats would also sue David Copperfield, Penn and Teller, and Harry Houdini (RIP...soldier) for using 'magic sticks' in their acts. <br> <br>Come on 50... you bragged in an interview that 'Magic Stick' was all you (even Lil Kim's part) so give this producer cat Jim Jones 'Dip Set' chain for royalties (Jim won't be needing that no more) and call it a day.
