The rappers recently attended the wake for Proof, real name Deshaun Holton, who was gunned down last month at a Detroit nightclub.
50 Cent said: "Eminem's coming along. He's gonna be all right. I mean, it was definitely a big loss for him.
"Proof was actually his best friend in the world from forever."
Meanwhile, 50 insists that the sometimes violent lyrics in hip hop music did not play a role in Proof's murder.
He added: "I think the violence that happened to Proof and the violence that's happening across America right now has nothing to do with hip-hop.
"It has something to do with the people - the state of them - and the music doesn't alter that."
Im very glad to hear this myself, I was hoping EMINEM would live through. Despite rumours of suicide and so on, we now know that this had nothing to do with rap.
