*50 Cent revealed in a new interview that he initially offered his 2003 single “Magic Stick” to Miami rapper Trina before it went to Lil’ Kim.

[“Magic Stick”] was written for ‘Get Rich or Die Tryin’. And then it didn’t make it. I wrote that record intentionally to work with Trina. I sent it to Trina,” 50 said on the Apple Music show, Complex reports. 

“They f*cked up the record, they sent it back. F*cked up. They had the lyrics and everything on it, and they messed it up,” Fif said of Trina’s team. 

“Then Gee Robeson came and got it from me, heard the record, and was like, ‘Yo, I need this. I need this for Kim. I need it,'” he added.

“Magic Stick” appeared on her “La Bella Mafia” album. Fiddy said Kim took the song and “made a good record” reminiscent of the sexually charged lyrics on her debut album, “Hard Core.”

50 and Lil’ Kim’s relationship has seemingly soured since they collaborated on the track.  In a 2003 Hot 97 freestyle, he dissed the pint-sized rapper.  “I wrote Magic Stick, I gave Kim a hit, then I wouldn’t shoot the video, she threw a lil fit Why would I care bout your emotions, you’re not my b*tch,” he rapped, per Complex.

Elsewhere in the Apple Music 1 conversation, 50 said his least favorite song on his “Get Rich or Die Tryin'” album is “Many Men.”

“’Many Men’ was my least favourite at that point because musically we was in the boom-bap phase,” the hip-hop icon shared,  Complex reports. “We was in that hard-hitting intensity, the energy on the records, and it’s the slowest song on ‘Get Rich or Die Tryin’. And it’s now the tempo that the artists are rapping to. So the fast tempo, hard-hitting beats, that was that era, that time period. And the whole album had it.
