hmm i can kinda see where 50 wants 100 mil, he did make "The Game" i don't care what you say if it wasn't for 50 going to dre or dre asking 50 not sure which one but it doesnt matter if he can put game in with g-unit, the game would still be on dre's label not doing shit and waiting for his chance.

LOLOL!!!! "Make the Gayme." He helped the Gayme. Not made him. Even with that, he isn't worth another $100mil. You think that Interscope wants to invest that much money in someone who will probably not be near as big as he is now in about 5 years? They won't get near that dollar amount worth from him.

I wouldnt be surprised if Interscope gave him that money in a heartbeat. And none of that money is gonna come out of Eminem's or Dre's pocket. You probably think Raekwon is really going to release an album under Aftermath...

you bring up a good point. what we would have to really know is :Originally Posted by JackMaster
How much has INTERSCOPE made off of 50 Cent since "Get Rich or Die Tryin".
If the answer is they made 500Million dollars (which im sure they made that) then $100 million is easy. They will spend 100 to make 400million. shit i would. You gotta remember, they prob own rights to every DVD, concert, CD that he puts out.
add all that up, love him or hate him , he sells cds, and he makes MONEY.
50 Cent will live because of threads like this. he get attention and people will buy his music.
Look at Eminem. His first 2 cds were pure genius. the rest were garbage, but they still sold and went platinum, because hes Eminem. Hes like howard stern, you want to see what he is going to say next.
50 Cent appeals to yes, alot of white suburban kids, but i still here black people bumping 50. the select few of us that are "music conisuers" may not like what hes doing or the music hes putting out now, but we are the MINORITY.
Get Rich or Die Tryin the album and is still one of my favorite CDs. you cant argue the anger and lyrics he came out with, he rejuvenated rap at the time when it was getting old an stale. Now , everyone has heard his disses, hes not hungry anymore so we will never see another album like that again. Same with Eminem.
but what do i know, im a white kid![]()

What's really the deal is you don't know shit about what I do know or not. 50 Cent won't even go multi-platinum for another 4 or 5 albums. Maybe 1 or 2 at best. That's why I said that he probably won't even be around in 5 years or so.Originally Posted by JackMaster
Also, since it seems you can't understand what you read, this is all probable. I never said he wouldn't as fact. You're the idiot in this thread and I think you know it. And, also to further show you are the one that doesn't know shit, Interscope is already showing big hesitancies in signing. Fucking dummy. Don't step to someone if you don't know them. Later, QD.
QD, your e-thuggery is a joke. I kow enough about you with your stupid ass post you always flood the entertainment section with. Please, just bc you copy and paste random articles from random hip-hop sites does not make you a hip hop afficianado you fuckin dunce. Please tell me what your sources are... Vibe mag? Source Magazine? You think its the money Interscope is hesitant about? PUBLISHING RIGHTS YOU DIPSHIT... thats the key. Please dont make me explain publishing rights and point system to you. And btw, I will step to your ass all day long, so go read another hip hop website and regurgitate what they wrote.Originally Posted by quickdodge®

soo true...I can't believe the stuff they put out these days is anywhere near considered "hip hop." It's pop if you ask me. I think after Pac and Biggie died, hip hop slowly died down. There is just no creativity in the hip hop genre: the same spinning rims with the same big booty girls with the same lame ass beat. Or if you can't do that much, you're next best bet is just hate on someone for doing something that you can't AKA 50 cent. His career basically started when he dissed ja rule. After he came out with those few disses, everyone liked 50 cent. Then when he tried to diss Nas, Fat Joe, and Jadakiss, MC's that are in a totally different league above 50, everyone saw for what he truly was.Originally Posted by Jimmy B
I think Immortal Technique is the freshest MC i've heard in a while. His rhymes are pretty creative and original. If he just had better production IMO. We need the de la soul's, the jungle brothers, the bone thugs n harmony, the old school nas (pre-God's Son), and the old school Outkast (has anyone ever heard their first album, Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik? what a dope/underrated album) back in the hip hop game...
