Ready for an epic G-Unit reunion with rappers 50 Cent, Lloyd Banks, Tony Yayo, Kidd Kidd, and Young Buck? Check out this awesome three-part documentary presented by XXL:

(Part 3 coming soon)

Fifty recently left Shady Records to further pursue his solo career, but he still has the utmost respect for the infamous "Rap God." In a recent interview with XXL for the October/November 2014 cover story, the Get Rich or Die Tryin' emcee praises the MMLP2 legend above and beyond:

"Eminem gave me the shot that I needed at a point where he was so influential that there was nobody more influential than him. I don't have value for a lot of the relationships that I developed coming up on this journey, but Eminem is the guy. He's the one. He's been consistent with me the entire time and I love him to death. I'd f*ck all the way up for him. I'd do some shit that just wouldn't allow me to come back into a comfortable space because somebody was doing something to [Eminem] that was inappropriate, to this day... The only thing strong enough to make an Eminem record not work is the possibility of it hurting Beats [By Dre] and helping SMS Audio. It's the record with me, Eminem and Adam Levine. That one is the only one that Eminem has that you could technically look at and say it didn't work, because it was confusion for the Beats brand. It makes sense now that it's a billion-dollar move and it was important to the point that it couldn't work." 

That's pretty intense... although he's no longer with the record label, do fans think Fifty will make a surprise appear on Shady XV?

And readers can't forget about the NYC-native's ongoing "beef" with undefeated boxing champ, Floyd Mayweather. Perhaps they'll never be friends, but Fifty harbors no true bad feelings. But he still has some criticism...

"I don't have bad intentions for Floyd... I don't want to see him lose. I don't go to sleep and wake up like, 'I hope you f*cking lose, stupid.' No, I already got past that when I said what I said. I'm already done dealing with that right there. I want him to win as much as he can in his life and also change the sh*t that he got going on. So he can continue to be productive. But what I'm saying to him is right and he's going to figure that out over time. The lifestyle that is going on at the present moment is just not sustainable... He didn't do the right things to present him to the public properly, so there's a limit as to what he can do for promotional purposes. They keep it in that little pocket of things that they would do for traditional boxing stuff. Because where he's at right now in boxing, there should be no one that you can look at that should be comparable to him.

Will they ever be "bros" again?

"Nah," the "In Da Club" rapper adds. "But it don't matter though. See, the difference between me and everybody else that he fell out with is that I'm rich. And I don't care about being around. I had a period of time carved out where I can actually be around. People didn't know we were friends like that - we've been friends since 2002. [But] I don't care if I ever talk to him [Floyd] again."
