Judging by a few posts on his Twitter, it seems that 50 Cent is not feeling optimistic. “I don’t think I’m gonna live much longer,” he wrote during a series of tweets. Earlier today, he clarified the remark: “To be conscious that life is short is not suicidal,” he wrote. “I’m good if I die tonight.”

The rapper also claimed that he has “lost all the faith in the team I’m on. I have nothing left to say. I will not be promoting my music.” The comment comes after months of discord between the artist and Interscope Records, who are expecting the delivery of his next album. Last month, 50 Cent released the self-produced mixtape The Big 10, marking the 10-year anniversary of 50 Cent Is the Future.

50 Cent has been keeping busy by concentrating on promoting Street King, his new energy drink, proceeds of which to go to fight world hunger. At an event last month for the launch of his new line of headphones, 50 Cent talked about signing Jersey Shore’s Pauly D to G-Note Records.

Looks like Miley Cyrus is crossing over to the dark side. While on tour, Cyrus claimed Nirvana’s ‘Smells Like Teen Spirit’ inspired her to do music. Really? You mean Billy Ray’s ‘Achy Breaky Heart’ didn’t?

For the first time ever, Rihanna blew us away with her performance of her latest single, ‘California King Bed,’ when she took to the American Idol stage last week.

For years, all we could think about was Rihanna performing Mariah Carey’s ‘Hero’ during a school talent show. If you’ve seen it, you know what we’re talking about!

Seems the years have been good to Rihanna’s voice and she’s able to carry a tune during a live performance. We love a good RiRi jam, but we’ve never turned to her for a stellar vocal performance. Could things be changing?
