Yo boy is falling off Marcus. Maybe if he stops making wack movies he would be able to drop another hit album. And whats up with the GUnit label. They got one foot in the grave.

Interesting choice for a cover. His album just got pushed back along with the movie and he’s been on a downward spiral. He’s still 50 though.

check that bank acct. gleb then talk to me. he still gettin’ it, i know you were never a 50 fan to begin with so its cool, his show is # 1 on mtv

Number 1 on MTV? People still watch MTV? I’m not knocking his ability to make money. I have no doubt in his hustle. What I do knock is his ability to make an album worth listening to or continue to run a powerful label. I used to be a 50 fan. I own his first two albums. Then it became transparent that he was becoming more obsessed will silly promotional tricks than mastering his craft as an emcee. It all came to a head with that showdown with Kanye where 50 talked all that mess and Kanye’s album blew his out the water. In sales and quality. Mainly because Kanye took some time in making his. I’m sure 50’s Apprentice knock off show is gonna make him some dough as will a lot of the other things he has going on but when it comes to making music, he’s fallen off.

I stopped being interested in 50 Cent after Candy Shop.. and even then he was going downhill. I support what he’s doin, he’s gettin his money. I’m just never feelin him..

Im still bumpin Rider:) when it was G-Unit.. “Im a Hustler” stays in rotation from Power of A Dollar. 50 is still one of my fav’s. Interesting to see whose album has more sales between him and Kanye now that they arent officially competeing.. Personally, they are both great artist. I dont give a dam, they livin large and giving us aspirations that dreams can come true.
