50 responded by praising 21’s latest music

21 Savage’s style and lingo may have some similarities with those of 50 Cent, and this is because one influenced the other. During a recent appearance on Club Shay Shay, 21 explained that the G-Unit leader’s storytelling ability in music inspired his craft.

“50 Cent was a thousand percent [an inspiration],” 21 stated. “I looked up to him growing up ’cause he told his story more than a lot of other artists. He had a movie and all type of shit. I knew his story a little more. I was inspired by his story.”

50 Cent shortly after shared a screenshot of 21’s interview on Instagram and in the caption, he approved “Sneaky,” a track from the Slaughter Gang honcho’s new album, american dream. “He got the hardest sh!t out right now Track 5 Sneaky stop playing for [ninja emoji] start booming sh!t,” Fif’ wrote.
