Well, it's not often myself and Aspirine agree on things. But who in their right mind, would buy a 50 cent album? I can only say idiots, and people who don't know real hip-hop.
I disagreed with you Asp, when you did this for Eminem's Curtain Call, just because Fack was on it, and maybe you did have a point, but he had enough great tracks to honour a greatest hits album.
But, fifty, he dosn't have enough good songs to warrant a b-side to a single. He's just garbage always was, but people didn't see it. The title itself "Get Rich Or Die Tryin" was sign enough for me. I literally busted out laughin when he said on "Patiently Waitin" "When I die they'll say a genius wrote it", I know emcees are supposed to big themselves up and boast of being geniuses. But this was a real stretch, for 50, because you can't say things like that and not back it up "a lil bit", no pun intended. Eminem shitted on him in that collab, with one of his average verses. So right from the get-go I knew 50 wasn't a lyrical rapper, even though he had some minor basic multies along the way, nothing impressive. So I wasn't a fan at all from the start. But, these days his shit is worse than I could ever have imagined, and with his business moves and the money he makes, it's just sickenin.
DON'T BUY HIS ALBUM!
