During a recent appearance on Math Hoffa’s My Expert Opinion, French Montana praised 50 Cent for utilizing beefs to his own benefit.

“50 was picking on n***as to pick on n***as,” French explained. “At one point, he was the biggest genius in the music industry. He would just pick on you and drop a mixtape. Pick on you and drop an album.”

French went on to credit 50  with creating an entire “marketing scheme for other artists to use.”

“I mean people did it before him, but he became the mastermind he became the warlord of that,” Montana shared. “That’s definitely a blueprint for a lo of n***s to learn.”

French’s comments arrive a year after he buried the hatchet with Fif, saying he has no problem with the hip-hop mogul ever since he made Starz’s hit series BMF.

“Man, let me tell you something. Me, I have no problem with 50 no more after he dropped this BMF joint. That’s my favorite shit,” French told Drink Champs in December 2021. “Whatever me and 50 ever had – shout out to 50. Yeah, me and him, everything is over after BMF. That’s the best work ever.”

It didn’t take long for 50 to accept French’s peace offering. 50 took to Instagram on Saturday to address his former adversary’s comments, writing, “That was the right answer French, well handled. What beef, I don’t remember.”
