50 Cent explains why he parted ways with Olivia. “That was a loss.  The problem you get with female solo artists is they game is really small. They look at it and say ‘Beyonce, Rihanna, Keyshia Cole…’ When you got an African-American female, solo artist, she sees where she fits immediately. The problem is they spend finances like those artists, having the set-up — the make-up artist, the stylists, different things.”

“If you don’t have a record that connects fast enough, you accumulate a tab like a motherf***er. You look around like ‘Yo, you spent $2 million on this sh**,’ ” he says.

“It had me compromising myself at certain points. I made sacrifices for other artists that I don’t think people acknowledge them,” he added. “When I’m doing a Get Rich Or Die Tryin’ movie soundtrack, I know I’m supposed to be doing ‘I’ll Whip Your Head Boy.’ … And I’m doing ‘If I Was Your Best Friend’ because I’m already $2 million in the hole on the actual project.” Source

Damn Olivia.  Play your position.  You gotta have at least ONE hit record before you let the diva out.
