"50/50 Luv" is the 1995 debut single by rappers B.G. Knocc Out & Dresta from their debut album Real Brothas.

The lyrics deal with the street life, how it has changed people and turned friends against each other. It is also considered a dedication to Eazy-E.

The song contains an interpolation of "When Somebody Loves You Back" by Teddy Pendergrass.

The b-side "D.P.G./K" (stands for Dogg Pound Gangsta Killas) is a diss song towards Death Row Records artists Snoop Doggy Dogg, Dr. Dre, Dat Nigga Daz, Kurupt and Nate Dogg. Both "50/50 Luv" and "D.P.G./K" had music videos.
