The difference between 50 Cent in 2007 and two years prior was his dwindling popularity. At the time, his feud with Jadakiss and The L.O.X. was also still ongoing.
Lil Wayne was on a roll with collaborations and had a strong relationship with Ja Rule since his entry into the game.

G-Unit, which still boasted Young Buck began taking shots at Lil Wayne, with Buck saying it was impossible for him to be cool with the crew after he worked with Ja Rule. Five years have passed since then and things have drastically changed, as 50 Cent recently spent a night in Las Vegas with Lil Wayne and Justin Bieber, celebrating Floyd Mayweather, Jr.’s win over Miguel Cotto.
