Comedian Alex Thomas<\/strong> was closely associated with Dr. Dre<\/strong><\/a>‘s Aftermath Records uprising at the top of the century … which led to him landing the role of the sassy gay man who dissed Ja Rule<\/strong><\/a> at the end of 50 Cent<\/strong><\/a>‘s “Back Down” track!!!<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

The song was a crucial moment in 50 and G-Unit winning their rap battle against Ja and Murder Inc. en route to 50’s “Get Rich Or Die Tryin'” debut, nearly being certified Diamond!!!<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

Alex tells “The Art of Dialogue” that after Dre and DJ Pooh<\/strong> hand-picked him to star in the 2001 film “The Wash” — alongside Snoop Dogg<\/strong><\/a> and Eminem<\/strong><\/a> — Dre immediately pulled him aside and tipped him off that some guy named 50 Cent was the next rapper to blow up.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

Dre played Alex a clip of a supposedly gay man calling a radio station asking for Ja Rule … and the comic actor took the gag and ran with it, without knowing the depth of the beef or even who 50 was altogether.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

The end result is one of Hip Hop’s biggest blockbuster albums … Alex says it only took him 30 minutes to earn $10K!!!<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

To sweeten the pot, Dre also bought him a pool table as a housewarming gift … and Alex was sinisterly left uncredited to fuel the gay rumors directed at Ja.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

Alex says it was just business — not personal clowning on Ja — and hopes to catch 18 holes of golf with him down the line.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

The comedian trend on rap albums continued after 50’s. Mike Epps<\/strong><\/a> cameoed on Ice Cube<\/strong><\/a>‘s “Laugh Now, Cry Later,” Katt Williams<\/strong><\/a> starred on Lil Kim<\/strong><\/a>‘s “The Naked Truth,” and Cedric The Entertainer<\/strong><\/a> was on Bun B<\/strong><\/a>‘s “Trill OG.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
