A symbol of everything wrong with hip-hop. He has no flow, unbelievably bad lyrics, and no subject material except "I'll kill you"...and he still sells a ton. The people who buy his albums are either white, upper-class kids who don't listen to any other rap, or black people who try to hide their weakness by pretending they're thugs. Listen to Jay-Z, B.I.G., Kanye, Big L, and Nas, and then tell me that 50 Cent has any talent whatsoever. But don't worry, his new album is going to flop horribly and we won't hear much from him anymore.

Get the 50 Cent mug.
Rapper who put rap back in rap. Before 50 went underground with G-unit, we had to listen to Ja Rule and some chick, Nelly half-sing/half-rap, Will Smith, LL, and any other rapper who went mainstream. 50 took it back to the streets, and don't forget he doesn't condemn the people out there that bootleg his shit. Selling 1.1 mill in 4 days is enough, imagine if bootlegging was included? 50 has now become commercialized, the same thing happens to almost every rapper after signing with they major. When you get that "big" record deal you gotta do certain things to keep the hand that feeds you happy (See Snoop). It ain't about kissing ass it's about not being an idiot and f*ckin' your own self up. We all do it day by day in own lives. If you don't then check the definition of loser in the urban dictionary...your picture awaits.
50 cent before rap = hustling to stay ahead of the streets
50 cent after being shot = hustling mixtapes to the streets
50 cent after Shady/Aftermath deal = Hustling to "get rich"
50 cent after getting rich = doing what he needs to do stay rich.

A stupid gorilla that somehow made it's way into mainstream hip hop. Him followed by idiots like soulja boy, kanye west, diddy etc. All killed hip hop they can go fuck themselves. WE need another Tupac or Eazy E DEARLY!
Tupac: It ain't about the struggles no more. It's about cars, money and hoes now. Fuck the clowns.

50 cent: If I weren't so fucking gay maybe we would have more artists like tupac.

a rapper who has a tendency to rap about his sexual reproductive system, which he calls it the "magic stick". he has at least two of his magic stick songs. they are "candy shop" and..."magic stick"

this rapper is just like any other mainstream rappers out there... they all make the same kind of lyrics about sex, drugs, violence, and bad language mixed with a tune made from some midi format music
rap is only one letter short of rape.... i wonder why....

'50-Cent' is a term used to describe someone (mainly a rich person) who spends their money loosely or excessively without caring about the expenses.

They usually spend their money on extrememly trivial things or buy luxuries that they already own.
Look at that guy there buying a bottle water near the drinking fountain, he must think he's 50-Cent or something...

Look at Andrew, buying another pair of Nikes when he already has 3, what is he 50-Cent or something?!

Mainsteam rapper who got popular because he nagged Eminem and Dr. Dre to put him on, and the fact he's been shot a billion times (I can see why). Has somehow made a shitload of money and now buys Rolls Royce's an 5$ hoes off the streets of queens, which has led him to beleive he is a pimp. Has beef with Ja Rule (who blows even more than 50), nas, shyne an jadakiss. hopefully he'll realizes just cause he gets banged by dre and em hes not gangsta and go away. Also responsible for bringin all these wack words to the table, like wanksta when the real word is busta, like all u who old enough to respect the O.G.s should know

50 Cent real name "Curtis Jackson" is a 32 year old rapper who came up from the ghetto streets of Jamaica Queens to a multi-millionaire record selling artist, actor, producer and entrepreneur.

He is currently the boss of the famous rap group G-Unit which stands for Guerrilla Unit not Gangsta Unit which many people believe.

On May 24 2000 he was shot 9 times by an assailant carrying a 9mm handgun.
Many people hate on 50 Cent because they are jealous of his fame and power in the media.

Kid: I hate that fake ass mutha-fucking 50 Cent he ain't no ghetto gangsta.
Kid2: STFU punk you still live in your momma's basement!
