"I can't wait till 50 Cent quits"



He'll get a bullet in his skull before that happens. This album is well produced, but the vocal style and the lyrics in general are awful. Especially the lyrics to 'In da club'

its amazing that rock bands are putting out better lyrics than rappers

Your comparing the worst rappers and the best rock bands though. I'm sure the fastest tortoise could beat the slowest hare anyday, even though hares are supposed to have speed.

He claims to be this huge gangster then makes a song called candyshop


A Candy Shop is a whore house in Fiddy terms, with the lollipop referring to his genetalia. So basically the whole song is a sexual innuendo. When you consider how popular the song was with females, and how many like to sing along. He did a good job perverting thousands upon thousands of woman.



Any gangsta would be proud of that accomplishment.

like you know people hate you when you're shot on 9 seperate occasions


Ugh, you didn't read the review did you? He was shot at 9 times, not shot on 9 seperate occasions.

50 cent talks about how much of a pimp he is but its funny because he never was a pimp.


Along with many other criticisms of 50 Cent that you guys have made, I've already discussed this in the review. 50 Cent actually did live in the enviroment that he claims in his lyrics. He brags, as I said in the review. I also mentioned in the review that his lyrics weren't the strongest, and took that into consideration.



To the people that say his rapping is poor and slurred, I already acknowledged that in the review.



To the people that say the beats are generic, I already acknowledged that in the review.



To the people that say my rating is loony, read the conclusion of the review and try to remember what context the rating was in.This Message Edited On 04.25.06

I haven't listened to this in quite some time, and probably should. This review keeps on popping up just reminds me how much I like fiddy's music. Anyway, The Massacre still owns this on any given day.

Liberi Iam not talking about you're reveiw Im talking about 50. Sure im just repeating what everyone else has said, but im still allowed to say why I think 50 is a douche (even if everyone has already said everything needed to be said about 50).


Don't rate the album based on your opinion of 50 Cent. Thats all I'm trying to get across.

Liberi you seem like a smart guy but you don't seem to realize 50 is no longer gangster and he has no right to be acting like one.


It depends on what you classify as a gangsta, and how little you know about 50 Cents current life.



You have to remember that whilst making this album, he was a poor gangsta. If you think he has sold out after making this album, then fine. But don't base your rating of the album on stuff that happened after the release of this album.

I think the Massacre is better. Also, you can tell who's a total idiot by seeing him/her post in this thread. Quite interesting.

50 Cent's stuff is okay to listen to for a bit of fun, but if I want music of substance, unfortunately this is not where I find it.

[QUOTE=Weedluver] what is this an english class? Besides I already said I didn't want to argue about something so pointless. [/QUOTE]

no, it was pointing out the fact that your crappy grammar shot yourself in the foot.

[QUOTE=overdriven101] i agree, 50 is a **** with an 8 yr olds IQ and his music sucks, he is a poser, not a musician!!!!!!![/QUOTE]

No, he's a musician. What the hell is a poser in music anyways, other than a term that is only used by 8 year olds?

[QUOTE=ammar] iddy sux everything about him sux..yes we get it hes rich and hes getting laid...so am i do u see me making an album about it..[/QUOTE]

So? people write songs that reflect their feelings all the time. There are a gazillion songs about love written by people who are in love, how is that any different?

[QUOTE=Mr_Bounce] 50 Cent's stuff is okay to listen to for a bit of fun, but if I want music of substance, unfortunately this is not where I find it.[/QUOTE]

This I agree with.

[QUOTE=Metals Guitarist] all have to say is that rap is so lame and talentless that it makes me sick[/QUOTE]

you are wrong.

The rarely seen quad-pwn. I really like the last song on here.

EDIT:What Up Gangsta? and Heat also are quite good. I'm sure there's some other stuff off this I'll like. This Message Edited On 04.26.06

Honestly, this is the one rapper (other than Violent J) that I can't stand. I don't really like rap with the exception of perhaps Bone thugs in harmony, but I can tolerate most of it.

I can only listen to 50 cent when I'm driving. He's not really a "hey I have nothin to do so I'm going to listen to a guy rap about his penis" kind of artist. Fom what I have heard though, He has incredible talent. In my opinion he could use his talent in more constructive ways (aslo like: Eminem) but you have to admit, he sure did make a big splash in the rap genre.

Wow, what a rebel rating this album 4/5. I am becoming less and less interested in reviews on this site.



There is some good production, but 50 Cent is NOT a good rapper.
