RICK ROSS has challenged rap rival 50 CENT to go back into the studio and record a new lyrical attack - because his musical response to the HUSTLIN' star's latest insult is "garbage".
Ross first hit out at the G-Unit general - real name Curtis Jackson - in his song Mafia Music, when he referenced a fire which ravaged a home owned by 50 and lived in by the rapper's son and ex-girlfriend last year (0.
He rapped: "I love to pay ya bills, can't wait to pay ya rent/ Curtis Jackson baby mama, I ain't looking for a cent/ Burn the house down, you gotta buy another/ Don't forget the gas can, jealous, stupid muthaf**ker."
50 Cent then hit back with the track Officer Ricky (Go Head, Try Me), in which he pokes fun at Ross' history as a prison officer, a career move he initially tried to deny but eventually confessed to in October (0.
But Ross has dismissed the response, referencing 50 Cent's upbringing in New York, where hip-hop first came to the fore, and criticising the quality of his work.
In an interview with satellite radio station Shade 45, Ross says, "I heard that, but I was positive that couldn't be the response. You got to be f**king joking New York City. It's the Mecca of hip-hop right? That can't be the f**king response. You insult Mafia Music like that. We gone all act like we didn't hear that garbage. We gone give you another 48 hours. Go back in the lab, and come up with something else."
