Aloe Blacc has claimed that 50 Cent turn back on rapping

Aloe Blacc has claimed that the "misogyny of artists such as" 50 Cent turn back on rapping.

The singer said that his latest album 'Good Thing' he wanted to "tell a different story" after growing tired of there being "too much opulence [and] braggadocio" in hip-hop.

Speaking to the Independent On Sunday, Blacc commented: "Artists like 50 Cent (pictured below right) made me stop rapping.

"What happened is that the music got corporatised. Industry executives sacrificed art for what sells and mega-stars now saturate the market with the same tired lyrics."

Blacc also discuss al-Qaeda leader Osama Bin Laden's death previous month that a party was not a cause reactions in the U.S. talked about.

He remarked, "We need to recognise that a human being had been killed".

"The families of the people who died in 9/11 may have felt that justice was done, but it's still a life, and we need to take the moment to mourn all the deaths, not just the 3,000 or so US citizens but the 10,000 or so in the Middle East who are dying for whatever reason it is that America is still in Afghanistan."
