Clyde Smith - Ghostface Killah [2:40 | Skit, Rap]
This is Raekwon’s response to 50 Cent’s song “How to Rob”. In the song, 50 cent talked about robbing different rappers. Specifically, he said he would rob Raekwon, Ghostface Killah, RZA, and Ol’ Dirty Bastard.
Catch Rae, Ghost and RZA for them funny ass rings.
I’d rob ODB, but that’d be a waste of time Probably have to clap him, run and toss the 9.
Raekwon responds to 50 cent by threatening to kick his ass and by insulting him

How to Rob - 50 Cent [4:25 | Diss, Rap] https://youtu.be/mrXiVvjBSXI
50 fantasizes robbing the era’s biggest of rapper and singers; many of his targets clapped back (and 50 appreciated the publicity!)
Although he’s fully famous now, 50 still engages in “beef marketing” (e.g. a blatantly corporate scheme with Kanye West and silly jabs at Jadakiss and Fat Joe)
Two excellent commentaries on the song:
- From Combat Jack
- From Trackmasters
And as said in Beef (2003):
?50 Cent’s “How To Rob” mocked a new phenomenon. An MC dissing dozens of artists, who take his threats seriously and his disses personally.
This single off 50’s first (unreleased) album Power of the Dollar came out in 1999 and made him almost famous.
