50 Cent admitted he missed a serious alternative when a younger Chris Brown auditioned for a G-Unit marketing campaign, revealing he didn’t know market a teenage expertise on the time.

On Monday morning (November 10), the rapper-turned-mogul shared a throwback clip from the “R&B Money” podcast, the place Brown recounted his early brush with 50 Cent throughout what would turn into a pivotal second in his profession.

“It was for a G-Unit campaign,” Brown stated, recalling a serious reserving that gave him his first actual shot. “So I was like you know what, ’50 Cent he gone be able to see us. He’s going to be at the shoot, we can give him our demo, we can sing.’ You know, the typical like I want to get signed s###.”

That led to a backstage hangout with 50 Cent through the shoot, the place the then-teenage performer tried to make an impression.

“We were bad little kids,” Brown stated. “We already had weed and s###, so we was trying to smoke our weed on the side. They like, ‘Man what y’all doing?’ So we like ‘Nah, we rap and we sing. So we started performing and then they was like, ‘You know what man y’all n##### is dope.’”

Despite being impressed, one particular person on 50’s staff made it clear they weren’t able to deal with younger expertise.

“But we don’t know how to f###### market no damn kids, we some gangsters,” Brown recalled being instructed. “So I was like, ‘Damn.’ Like I understood it.”

Reflecting on that second, 50 Cent posted the clip to Instagram with a caption that hinted at a tinge of remorse:

“I knew CB had it back then, I just didn’t know how to market kids,” he defined. “I went to award shows to see him get busy now he is the best we got. Like it or not !”
