50 Cent Disagrees With Kanye West

African-American entertainers by and large either have been silent or in support of the racist comments made by Kanye West on a benefit in the wake of Hurricane Katrina, but 50 Cent has spoken up to disagree with him.

To refresh your memory, West said that this country was set up to deny black people help in times of crisis and that President Bush hates black people. At last, 50 Cent has spoken up to disagree saying that he believes everyone did his or her best which is a lot closer to the truth than the racist stuff that West was spewing. I won't rehash the multiple levels of ignorance that West displayed about everything related to that disaster, but I'm glad that 50 Cent has at least had the courage to stand up and say it's not true...
