I just listened to a 50 Cent CD

My god, what a pile of shit. The only words I could understand were: fuck, nigger, gun, money, ho, and bitch, along with gun shot sounds. The beats weren't even any good. Anyone else remember when M.C. Hammer WAS rap?
 
i dont now man. his beats are actually pretty good. i could give 2 shits about his lyrics.
 
I'm not a fan of his in the least, I love the more hiphop sound ie. jurassic 5, common, nas and old school shit like De La Soul, Tribe Called Quest etc.....

I think 50 looks like a silver back gorilla, and no that's not intended to be a racist slur, he seriously looks like a gorrilla.

I have the same CD. Not the best because his teeth never move.

If you enjoy 50 cent then I would be inclined to say the same about you. The guys raps like he has the intelligence level of a 12 year old.

Let's compare some lyrics, here's an excert from a Talib Kwali song:

Yo, I heard it's said the revolution won't be televised
But in the land of milk and honey there's a date you gotta sell it by
Otherwise it just expires and spoils
And these folks jump out the pot when the water too hot
Cuz the fire boils inside
You go to church to find you some religion
And all you hear is connivin' and gossip and contradiction and
You try to vote and participate in the government
And the muh'fuckin' Democrats is actin' like Republicans
You join an organization that know black history
But ask them how they plan to make money and it's a mystery
Lookin' for the remedy but you can't see what's hurtin' you
The revolution's here, the revolution is personal
They call me the political rapper
Even after I tell 'em I don't fuck with politics
I don't even follow it
I'm on some KRS, Ice Cube, Chris Wallace shit
Main Source, De La Soul, bumpin' "2Pacalypse Now"

Here's a 50 cent lyric

When I pull out up front, you see the Benz on dubs
When I roll 20 deep, it's 20 knives in the club
Niggas heard I fuck with Dre, now they wanna show me love
When you sell like Eminem, and the hoes they wanna fuck
But homie ain't nothing change hold down, G's up
I see Xzibit in the Cutt that nigga roll that weed up
If you watch how I move you'll mistake me for a playa or pimp
Been hit wit a few shells but I dont walk wit a limp
In the hood then the ladies saying "50 you hot"
They like me, I want them to love me like they love 'Pac
But holla in New York them niggas'll tell ya im loco
And the plan is to put the rap game in a choke hold
I'm feelin' focused man, my money on my mind
I got a mill out the deal and I'm still on the grind


See the difference? I always feel dumber after listening to a 50 cent song.
 
50 Cent is for the Club. Common is for more chillin and relaxing. 50's beats are hot they make the girls shake the laffy taffy. Girls can't shake to a Common track.

Yeah 50 does look like a Gorilla. Hence the name of his crew, G-Unit (Gorilla Unit)! lol!!! People must of told him that.

Mainstream clubs maybe but serious hip hop clubs play Common, Jurassic 5, Gangstarr. 50 Cents' lyrics are probably the worst ever...
 
If you're listening for rap to get educated or to get a "message" then you are lost. It's entertainment, not philosophy. It's called making money, who makes more 50 or Jurassic 5? He's not as dumb as you think. Same thing with Eminem, he goes for shock value and it works. When dumbasses on CNN are bashing him he is getting exactly what he wants!

That's true, but the sad reflection on society is that his music DOES sell. In a normal world he would go broke with playing this kind of crap.

He makes money by perpetuating a negative stereotype of black people, which is ironic considering he's black.

I'm not saying that it isn't sad. He's got an edgy rugged style which includes nothing profound or even close. It's just hard and full of energy. I don't even think anyone pays any attention to the words, it's all about the beat.

50 cent is a punk studio gangsta. Anyone who has to walk around with a squad of cops is really hip...

does 50 cent even open his lips when he raps? he sounds like he mumbles shit the whole time. girls just like him because they think its sexy he got shot 6 times with a paint ball gun, yet that one dad from wyoming or whatever was trapped under a car and fuckin cut his arm off with a plastic butter knife.

LOL, good point
 
The thing I don't understand is how shock value can still sell music. It just seems that all of the gangster rap shit has been done before. The controversy has fizzled but this guy still manages to sell it. If he had actual music talent I could understand, but his voice sounds messed up to me.

I do confess to liking some of Eminems music though. Some of his lyrics at least make me laugh and his voice sounds cool. It has some sort of echo sound to it that I really can't explain.

Well he was shot 9 times and one bullet hit his jaw that is why he doesn't move his mouth and just mumbles.

But man I couldn't picture cutting my own arm off!!! But if you have the will to live you will do anything!
