Chief Keef Says 50 Cent Is ‘Cool’ And Is Not His Mentor, Reveals Why He Signed Up With Interscope Records

Detained Chicago rapper, Chief Keef has made a very interesting statement. Something that contradicts what we had previously understood about him and Gangsta rapper 50 Cent. Keef who has been sentenced to 60 days at a juvenile prison for violating the terms of his probation gave an interview to Power 92.1 before his detention when he was on a promotional tour for the debut album he dropped, Dec. 18, 2012 - "Finally Rich."

HipHopDX said that Keef is one of those rappers who rarely gives interviews and was annoyed by some of the questions asked by radio personality TT Torrez. But one of the most important revelations he made was about his relationship with 50 Cent. When asked if the "Get Rich or Die Tryin'" album rapper was Keef's mentor. "Nah... We be riding Ferrari's together, he's cool. He tells me a lot of stuff, a lot of dos and don'ts, but I don't know who told you that stuff right there," Keef said.

The 17-year-old rapper also opened up on his deal with records major Interscope Records. He also said that the rapper Young Jeezy tried to take him under his brood. But he turned him down. Jeezy is the founder of record label CTE World.

"He came and spoke some words to me too, before I signed with Interscope."

"I can sign people, why would I sign to Young Jeezy? I'd rather sign to Interscope because Interscope is a bigger brand and they gave me my own label," explained Keef in the interview.
