Tony Yayo calls Games Jay Z Attack a Stupid Move

NEW YORK – Tony Yayo has been keeping up. Just like all the fans have been talking about Jay-Z and the Game’s back-and-forth, Yayo has been following along. The G-Unit member said Game made the wrong decision in choosing to dis the Jiggaman.

“Stupid move,” Yayo said a couple of days ago in Astoria, Queens. “It’s dumb. When I see guys like Jay-Z, 50 and Diddy, there’s no need for me [to beef with them]. They got too much money. Dudes got sniper money. You gotta chill. I chill. You gotta leave them kinda dudes alone. That’s how I look at it. I don’t know how other rappers look at it. These guys is worth hundreds of millions of dollars. 50, Eminem, Dre, Diddy – waste of time, man.”

Yayo, Lloyd Banks, Whoo Kid and 50 Cent will be back in Queens with a huge few days of events toward the end of August. In what 50 has labeled “40 Day,” named after the 40 projects, Fif and the crew are setting up bus rides to Great Adventure amusement park one day and the next, having a big picnic style party where everyone in the ‘hood is invited to listen to music, get food and mingle with the Unit and friends, such as boxer Floyd Mayweather.

“It feels good, man,” Yayo said about giving back. “You hear a lot of hate. You hear, ‘G-Unit don’t give back to the ‘hood. They don’t do this. They need security.’ Nah. This is gonna show and prove to you they give back to the ‘hood. A lot of people focus on the negative, not the positive. Bring your kids, your grandmother – everything’s free.”

Tony Yayo Speaks on G Unit

Tony Yayo recently talked about why he believe G-Unit’s joint album TOS Flopped:
“Ain’t no love in the industry,” Yayo added, addressing the reception to the G-Unit group effort T.O.S. “You just have to be business-orientated. T.O.S. was a good album. The streets loved it. It wasn’t commercial. And basically, it’s something on the catalog; we go to the next project. I feel like a new artist right now. I feel like we’re starting all over.” Yayo said that the low sales for Terminate on Sight have only driven the Unit’s captain to make some of his best work to date. Still, Yayo said the meager SoundScan showing last time around had nothing to do with his camp’s musical quality. “T.O.S., I feel like sometimes the things that 50 and Jimmy Iovine go through trickle down on us,” Yayo said.
“50 is the kind of person, he has so much power and money, sometimes I think the label gets intimidated by that. None of his artists have to starve. Me and Banks and Buck, we all was good. If Interscope don’t wanna throw me an advance, I can always get the quarter mil, half a mil from Fif. I feel [T.O.S.] wasn’t marketed, period. Even with the iTunes, people tried to order the album, they couldn’t order the album. We had weak preorders. We didn’t go on a good promo run. … 50 has one more album left [on his Interscope contract]. If you’re Jimmy Iovine or somebody, when you know you have that leverage, why not let the G-Unit album fail so we can give you less money if you come back to negotiate with us? If the album does well, I have to give you more money.”

Tony Yayo Runs his mouth

Tony Yayo has never been the one to keep quiet on his discontent for other rappers. Calling into Jenny Boom Boom’s show on Hot 93.7 in Connecticut, Yayo released a kamikaze of insults toward G-Unit’s three biggest current foes; The Game, Young Buck and Fat Joe.Stating that The Game was a “television blood,” Yayo mentioned their first encounter in which he saw Game wearing a different color. “When I met Game, he had on a brown flag. He wasn’t even blood, get out of here man.”

Equaling calling Young Buck a “television crip,” Yayo went at Buck the hardest because of his recent emotional split with G-Unit. “I guarantee, when Buck comes out with that mixtape, it’s gonna be a lot of exposing. I could expose Buck in so many ways. From females, to money, to what you had in your bank account, to your IRS, everything.” Yayo continued, “You cried in front of the biggest mess hall ever chump. You ain’t nothing,” he said referring to the taped phone call between Buck and 50 Cent.

Not wanting to leave Fat Joe out of the diss-frenzy, Yayo made his opinion straight-forward on the Bronx emcee. “You just a fat waste. Just go somewhere and die.”
