(CelebNMusic247-News) Lupe Fiasco BLASTS 50 Cents on Twitter

Lupe Fiasco is not know to bite his tongue when it comes to making his views known when it comes to politics and the state of Hip Hop. Lupe has not only made his views clear about the President, he has also voiced his opinion and speaking his mind on the growing teen violence epidemic that’s taking place in the streets of Chicago.

Lupe is set to make a stand on April 1st with the Project Orange Tree initiative, but the rapper also uses his Twitter account to invoke discussion on how everyone can bring an end to the violence that continues to claim the lives of so many young people. But rapper 50 Cent made a comment on the CBS Sunday Morning show and when asked about if rap music could be the cause of gun violence.

50 Cent replied:

“I’m flattered actually when they say that [rap music glorifies violence] to me because it would mean that I’m so, I have such a strong hold on the youth or people in general that it completely changes their thought process – the music is that powerful.”

“Yeah, it’s a lot more. It’s writing. If you were doing that and didn’t actually experience it, I would say you’re glorifying it. If you’re drawing from something from your actual experience, isn’t art imitating life?”

Lupe took to his Twitter firing shots:
