Nick Cannon tried his best to provoke Eminem into a war on wax with back-to-back-to-back diss tracks, including a third track which veered heavy into race-baiting.

Shady wouldn't be baited, perhaps in part because of some advice he got from his old friend 50 Cent.

“I told him don’t even say nothing to him,” Fif told TheWrap Wednesday at ABC’s Television Critics Association press tour day. “The record is terrible.

You can’t argue with a fool,” 50 continued, mocking Cannon. “When you understand that a person is not registering even when they’re losing, then the argument goes forever. So you should just stop.”

50 Cent, a notorious Instagram bully, doesn't seem to be taking his own advice when it comes to his numerous feuds with folks in lesser stations.

That said, maybe he draws a distinction between firing something out on IG and taking the time to get into the studio.

Do you agree with 50 that Nick Cannon's Eminem disses were that bad?
