Resize sig area!
i bet all you 50 haters don't know **** about the man behind the music......
if you did you would realize he is one of the rawest rappers out.
documentary is classic status......just like most gunit records are.
I don't give two ****s about the man's personal life, **** that *****. His life doesn't entertain me, its the music. and 50's music has been down hill since get rich. the documentary >> devil's advocate no competition.

Kanye sold somewhere around 950,000 the first week and 6xx,xxx the second week.Originally Posted by jfman
50 sold 65x,xxx the first week and 3xx,xxx the second week.......![]()
He quickly retracted his "retirement statement" after he said it. I think he took it back like a week after he mentioned it....![]()
FUCK GRAN TURISMO EAST!! NEVER TAKE YOUR CAR THERE, ESPECIALLY NOT FOR AN ALIGNMENT!! TERRIBLE BUSINESS!!![]()
Ha ha ! What a lil *****
He retarcted after he was told by the bean counters at his label he was gonna get outsold by west![]()

It's called white, suburban teenagers thinking they know what's up when it comes to rap. Later, QD.Originally Posted by sshonda2004
You're an idiot why the **** do you post on this forum? Sales don't equal quality, and aside from 50 no one in G-unit makes any serious bank. Kanye had more sales in his first week, then all of the g-unit artists put together besides 50. You can start talking when you know something, but you don't know anything.Originally Posted by sshonda2004
Surely Fiddy wasn't referring to such talented acts as D4L and Soldier Boy?!?!?!?![]()
cmon you cant hate soulja boy... hes young and just hustled the hell out of myspace is gonna be set for life. got to respect that hustle..
exactly!!Originally Posted by JITB
Can someone please post some of 50's lyrics that contain any sort of profound or deep thought? He's got some hard beats but I've yet to hear him say anything of much value.
Also I have read interviews where ironically 50 basically says that an artist's worth is judged by their album sales. The whole 50/Kanye feud was pretty much manufactured in the media from a single, now infamous, comment made by 50. And to top it all off, Graduation wasn't even that good of an album!
Nope. I can almost guarantee he'll be looking for a regular job in 5 years. Later, QD.Originally Posted by JITB
You're right at the "not necessarily." But you can say that with anyone. My post stands. He won't get that rich with this fad. Later, QD.Originally Posted by ironchef
OK im only going to say this one thing about 50. Im not a real rap fan at all. Only people i like that rap is Three six mafia. Actually most of the time i listen to hardcore music. But i do pay attention. And obviously alot of you arent. I had this same convo with some guys from work.
People are always hating on a man who is making it. Wake up and smell the coffee. 50 is worth 150 million ++ and he doesnt have to make a good album. B/c he owns so many other rappers it doesnt matter if his music is great grand and wonderful. He is probably sitting up in the hills of Beverly next to Sean John and Jay Z. He could seriously give to ****s about going back to NY. He will rep it all he wants, but he isnt going to go back there. He doesnt need to! He made he money off get rich or die trying. Dr. Dre and Emeniem made him who he was and he got smart. He took the ball and ran with it thats all. Leave it be.
There is only a wee bit of truth in this post. 50 does not have a home anywhere near Beverly. He does, contrary to your "belief," have a home in New York, though. He is in NY all the time. His main residence is in Connecticut. He doesn't "own" any rappers. No one owns a rapper. And speaking of these rappers that you think he "owns," they all flopped too so how did he make a financial statement with them?Originally Posted by T.S.
I love it when people confuse the word hate. There is a difference between "hating" and disliking. Later, QD.

And they just did a poll. I dont remember where i read it out of but when i find ill post it. And 50 is worth 150 million++ . And i know he didn't make that kinda money off Get rich or die try. Dont get me wrong it was his best album but Dre and Emeniem had there hands in the record so 50 didnt get all those proceeds. Honestly i could give 2 craps as to where he lives. The point is that he is paid and doesnt need to make albums but choose's too. He doesnt need to talk **** but he choose's too. And if he wants to diss one hit wonders so be it. i dont care for any of the new atlanta hits anyways. The only good **** that has come out of atlanta recently is Jeezy.
If your at the head of the class there is going to be haters....![]()
O yeah and Sony owned Prince just to clear that one statement up. So yes you can be owned as a star. It all goes on the contract, and how ignorant you are as an artist.
Hmmmm. Ok.Originally Posted by T.S.
And LOLOL!!!! @ the bolded part about Queezy. Later, QD.
yea they owned the name prince but not the man, hint the change of name to a ****ing symbol. Then sony couldn't do a damn thing.Originally Posted by T.S.
