I would hurt a lot of people's feelings if they knew how a paid featured artist truly felt about their music...I'm not saying this is the case with Eli but don't ever think an established artist wont take money from someone they don't respect...I'm sure 40 wasn't sitting by the phone praying that Kobe Soz would call to ask him to be on his song...but why not take the pile of money offered from Soz to do it?
