lmao are you serious?

Ive had all of those albums and mixtapes for at least 4 years. =))

i know but alot of peole dont get that 50 used to be underground and just sold out. people think he never did anything significant but he revolutionized the mixtape game. but he hasnt done anything for mainstream...except get rid of Ja...which is a bad thing

I'm probably one of the biggest 50 haters you'll find but even I wouldn't ever discredit what 50 has done in the past. He was ill and I felt him for a while, I too have most of those tapes and I'll still listen to them from time to time. But the fact of the matter is is that he fell off and he doesn't put out the fire that he used to put out. He's wack.

i see flash's of it

No, we don't hate 50 Cent, we hate you, rayallen0. :(

people think he never did anything significant but he revolutionized the mixtape game.
One could argue his influence on the mixtape market has resulted in a metamorphasised pseudo-album market, with the "real" mixtape - i.e. that of which is put together by a DJ, with maybe with a MC to host it - being increasingly turned into something of the past.

But then, I just so happen to enjoy some of these pseudo-albums, so it's good to an extent.

well he made mixtapes into albums. like mixtapes used to just be a line and no structure 50 cent started making mixtapes into like albums and had full songs. hook punch all that shit


and jack what...now since u can't beef with teh u gonna try to beef with me or some shit?

i mean this was fine until u came and ruined this just like u always do

No, I'm not "beefing" with you, I'd just like you to leave. You contribute nothing to RW or the discussions on here except your flooding the HHF with shitty thread after thread/poll.

lmao are you serious?

Ive had all of those albums and mixtapes for at least 4 years. =))

And your point is?

No, I'm not "beefing" with you, I'd just like you to leave. You contribute nothing to RW or the discussions on here except your flooding the HHF with shitty thread after thread/poll.
ya ur contributin of beef with tehgame is way better

well me and him resolved our differences

impossible

I'm not sure that many people don't know that 50 cent was a good rapper....to be honest i think that is why most people hate him....because he was good but completely sold out and helped diminish mainstream rap.

i'll leave the thread open for a bit but keep it to discussions about the topic...

50 was the man at that time....he was killing the mixtape scene, but like everyone else said....complete fucking sell out after that.

lmao......................

fiddy is fuhking shit ..........he a clown ass mutherfuhka with a big ego

And your point is?

And your point is?











Anyway...

50 used to be good,never an amazin emcee,made good songs,sold out,got rich and stopped tryin.

And your point is?

cosigned

"Get Rich And Stop Tryin'" is what his first album shoulda been called.

First it sounds like you're critizing the mixtapes & then you claim to have owned them for 4 years.

So I want to know what your point is; are you Co-Signing the thread starter,
Are you making fun of the mixtapes or are you just showing off?

I ain't trying to start on anything, so don't get me wrong.

I'm just curious like hell.

Nah,I like those mixtapes,I also like Guess Who's Back.

Power of The Dollar was dope, but everything else i've heard from him, besides a few songs off GRODT is incredibly wack

The beat on "Good Die Young" is lovely as hell.

Idk who you are, but that was a perfect statement.......

well he made mixtapes into albums. like mixtapes used to just be a line and no structure 50 cent started making mixtapes into like albums and had full songs. hook punch all that shit

Again, whether the pseudo-alum mixtape is a good thing or not is debatable.

I turned the radio off every time "Candy Shop" or "21 Questions" came on the radio...but I'm a huge 50 fan.

The dude never sold out. He's doing what he set out to do, hustle the music industry out of every penny possible.

He's a capitalist rapper, who despite what most of you think, is still pretty brilliant on the mic. You just don't like what he's saying. True enough he's had some annoying ass music on the radio, but he's had plenty of jams AND he's never changed his image, not at all. If anything, 50 is one of the realest mainstream rappers cause he isn't trying to change his style up every album to stay ahead of the curve and sell records.

where can u get this stuff? ive heard 50 was alot better back in the day

is still pretty brilliant on the mic.

You are retarded!

I knew you'd show up eventually.

And thanks, that means a lot kiddo.

teh
he is man...his singles were horrible for the massacare. those were for clubs but part of that album is good. 50 actually hasnt sold out. cuz his goal was money and he kept his eye on that he has never said fuck cash its about skill nah he says im coming for ya. bout the money man bout the money man

^ Thats what a sell out is... he's a disgrace to hip hop, cause he doesnt care about the art... just about the money

Yep. Dude's never lied! MONEY MONEY MONEY! Fuck Mike Jones, FIFTY is the American Dream! Shit, he's friends with Bush and I heard he's got his own Secret Service detail, lol.

a sellout is somebody who changes his style. 50 is the same

being friends with bush aint a good thing... dudes a clown

and having a secret service detail, but saying your from the streets and your a gangster and all that, dont go together...

Various def. from UD
1. When an artist conforms to the way record labels, managers, etc see them to make money through commercial success and generally not the original fan base.

2. When an artist conforms to the way they believe their fan base see's them.

3. When an artist gets too big for their own good, and believe that they are god(s) and can do anything they want.

thats what u think a sellout is. but only thing i have disrespect towards 50 for is backstabbing Bang Em' smurf and disrespecting Oprah

and he was kidding 50 aint freinds with bush. 50 said once that he would of voted for bush but i think he changed his mind. only reason i even know that is Kanye was whining that hes right and ur wrong

^ lmfao... thats not just what i think, thats what other people think. Definition from UD

sellout is somebody who changes his style. 50's goal was money from the start. so he got wat he came for but by ur def hes a sellout.now days seems being a sellout just means makin money

sellout or not, he's a disgrace regardless...

I dont' hate 50 cent, I really don't care about him because i don't follow his music at all, so why or how could I possibly hate him?

^wow never thought id say this. but i wish ppl would follow ur example.

like alot of people go out of there ways just to insult him

I hate his motives and his music. Old stuff is dope, new stuff is trash!!!!!

^heard his song Ski Mask way? its pretty dope. also listen to pearly gates by mobb deep 50 cent is great in that IMO

I wasted 3 minutes of my life listening to Pearly Gates. It blows.

^thats ur oppinion

^ Supported by many!

The whole blood money album was a HUGE letdown!

^i agree the album sucks but i like thats song basic message. it makes u confident u knowatimean

^ sorry but i have no idea what you mean lol...

^ sorry but i have no idea what you mean lol...


'Tis a question that has confused man since the dawn of time.

gun runner was a fun track.

almost every song on the power of a dollar i could listen to 10 times in a row...50 was truely a great artist at the time, but he progressively got worse and worse as time went on, which leads up to today...where i (and i know alot of you) hate everything released by him...

Man... I admit, 50 can write a song. You know. He puts his shit together cool. I hate him because he is a hypocrite. Talkin bout "Ja rule is a bitch. All he do is make songs with bitches." Then he turns around and does the same shit. Talkin about being all gangster and ja rule isn't and needs to stop portrayin himself that way, then he has feds for bodyguards? The hell kind of a man is that!?!? That shit isn't gangster.

ja rule is way more gangsta then 50 lol... i personally think ja > 50... i'd rather listen to ja's music then 50's, cause ja does it WELL

^well ja is less of a pop artist than 50 is...but more gangster...all Ja ever did was take ectasy while 50: High Level Crack Dealer, Jail, Boxer, shot 9 times, and he has an undisputed history in the hood.
Ja doesnt have any proof of his history


but doesnt matter bout ur street cred matter bout ur music

^ lmfao where'd you find that info!!! lmfao

^ya really hard info...50 is like the perfect street cred and history but of course he has to screw that up with Ghetto Qu Ran...tho that is a sick song...

^ SNITCH!!! and its not JUST ghetto quran....


lmao find me proof... you pullin ja's facts out your ass cause you a guint fan and cant accept that 50 was threatend by ja... Ja was best selling rap artist of 02'

^Ja threatned everybody...and what else proof is there for 50 bein a snitch? cuz of a order which is very highly likely signed by a judge...

50 Cent only had moderate multies in the old days, I have no idea what made Eminem like him so much and sign him. He totally sucks the only lyrical person in G-Unit is Lloyd Banks the rest of G-Unit is a fucking joke.

...all of 50's old stuff is classic...

^Ja threatned everybody...and what else proof is there for 50 bein a snitch? cuz of a order which is very highly likely signed by a judge...
maybe on bet a nice little comment about murda inc, supreme and drug money

^sayin its corrupt...that no diff than snoop, dre and pac sayin suge was corrupt..r they all snitches?

heres the all powerful wikipedia article

Shady/Aftermath/50 Cent/G Unit vs. Murder Inc./Ja Rule

Before even signing to Eminem's and Dr. Dre's labels, 50 Cent was engaged in a well-publicized dispute with rapper Ja Rule and his label Murder Inc. Records. The conflict's origin remains a mystery. However, many believe that Queens drug kingpin Kenneth "Supreme" McGrifth funded and provided the start-up money for Murder, Inc. Ja Rule and Supreme have had beef with 50 Cent and allegedly ordered his attempted murder in 2000. Their feud started when 50 Cent released the song "Ghetto Qu'ran", which dropped the names of McGrifth as well as several of his associates. This has led to 50 being labeled a snitch by many. Other accounts have ranged from an alleged robbery of Ja Rule's jewelry by a friend of 50's, to Ja Rule and Murder Inc. supposedly snubbing a young and star-struck 50 Cent at a video shoot, to 50 Cent's shooter being Ja Rule's bodyguard. It is possible that all or some of these things have led to this beef. Whatever the case, the hostility didn't reach public ears until 50 Cent released his fiery, but subliminal, diss track, "Life's On The Line." This led to two violent confrontations between the rappers. The first was a meeting where 50 Cent punched Ja, which caused a fight. The second confrontation occurred in a New York studio, where rapper Black Child, a member of Murder, Inc. stabbed 50 Cent. Black Child claimed that 50 cent was reaching for a gun during the fight. 50 claimed they turned off the light and that he left with 4 stitches. 50 also claimed he was unarmed, and that everybody knew it was Murder Inc before he knew.

Regardless of the physical repercussions, 50 Cent continued to make the rivalry a cornerstone of his music career. G Unit released numerous mixtapes, insulting Ja Rule and Murder Inc, one contained funny Ja Rule Duet skits. Before the release of Get Rich Or Die Tryin', Murder, Inc. began a smear campaign against the rapper. A restraining order document began floating around the Internet stating that 50 Cent had filed an order of protection against label CEO, Irv Gotti and Black Child. This helped forge the belief that 50 Cent is a "snitch" or a police informant.

Although 50 Cent dismissed the claims, the bad publicity continues to be a tool used among various rappers who engage in beef with his rap collective G-Unit. In fact, further investigation from New York lawyers found that the document could have been, and was most likely, signed by a judge without 50 Cent's consent or knowledge. The practice is common place in New York for victims of multiple attacks when their assaulter are released from jail.

The rivalry reached a boiling point for Murder Inc., which had remained silent for the most part, when 50 Cent released his second album-length battle rap, entitled "Back Down." In the song 50, who was always known for his hold-no-tongue approach to battling, insulted, joked and dissed Ja Rule and his label into action. In response, Black Child, along with fellow Murder Inc. rapper Cadillac Tah, countered with their own mix tape disses. Ja Rule, however, remained quiet. 50 Cent continued his barrage, releasing the Tupac assisted "Realest Killaz" where he addressed Ja Rule's penchant for imitating the slain rapper. This prompted Ja Rule to finally respond with the songs "War is On," "Guess Who Shot Ya" and "Loose Change." This all culminated into Ja Rule releasing Blood in My Eye, which was, in effect, a 50 Cent diss album.

Ja Rule eventually tried to squash the beef with 50 Cent by using Minister Louis Farrakhan in a televised interview. However, the attempt at peace lost credibility as the interview was scheduled a day before Blood In My Eye was released. As a result most fans, along with 50 Cent dismissed the interview as a blatant publicity stunt.

Ja Rule also had a small rivalry with 50's label-mates Eminem, D12 ,Dr. Dre, and Obie Trice. Ja Rule insulted Eminem's ex-wife and daughter in a song and Eminem responded on a mix tape by DJ Green Lantern with a freestyle collaboration with 50 Cent and Busta Rhymes in a Tupac Parody titled "Hail Mary 2003". Although they exchanged heated words, most fans did not take it seriously in the shadow of 50 vs. Ja Rule. Eminem also dissed him with another underground song with G-unit entitled "Bump Heads" (and various other songs with out the G-Unit). Dr. Dre also fired back with Obie Trice and Eminem on track called Shit Hits The Fan, included in Cheers, which Dr. Dre finally fires back on a beef ten years after Ruthless vs. Death Row beef, claiming Ja Rule's "pussy, you're not Pac, I knew him / Pac was a real nigga, you're a just a fucking insult to him."

Since then, 50 Cent's sophomore album, "The Massacre," sold millions, yet has been criticized for not being able to recapture the level of hype "Get Rich or Die Trying'" received. Ja Rule released "R.U.L.E" with the successful single, "New York," featuring Jadakiss and Fat Joe where Ja Rule took subliminal shots at 50. Interestingly enough, this single prompted 50 Cent to enter a feud with the two featured artists (See article on Piggy Bank for details). When Eminem called it quits in his 2004 rap "Like Toy Soldiers," Ja agreed, saying that he was exhausted with feuds and has recently released a greatest hits album entitled, "Exodus."

Although it seemed as the feud was over, Ja Rule has returned to the beef with "21 Gunz" which denuted on the Murder Inc. Mix tape: MI:3 Friday, May 12, 2006[1]. It can be heard, along with some of his other new songs on his MySpace site[2]. On the mix tape Mo Money in da Bank Pt 4; Lloyd Banks and 50 Cent replied with "Return of Ja Fool".

^ Proves nothing lol... just a long read that we all already know about

yep. i learn everythin i need to know from wikipedia...somehow fat joe was dead and then came back to life...

^? Huh?!

YOu know wikipedia is a trusted source, just as reliable as Britannica

of course. all hail wikipedia...which ive gotten so many computers banned from

what the hell are you talkin about?

...all of 50's old stuff is classic...

Um can I ask why??

just my oppinion its cool if u dont think so but don't bash me for mine

Explain your opinion... there is no use to making a statement and not backing it up


I can say America is the shittiest country in the world, but it doesnt mean jack shit unless i back it up by going further in depth

^all backin it up ever does is get people heated up so i stoped it just let ppl have there own damn oppinions im fuckin tired of bitches going out of there way to make a responce..if u h8 me just ignore me...damn

50's good. And his street life isn't under the microscope...all the people he "snitched" on don't say "50's a liar, he's full of shit" ... 50 was there, and did everything he said, probably even had a few people killed too... but all the people he snitched on are now saying "50's a deadman"...

So he moved to Connecticut.
