The reason why people who enjoy REAL music (hip-hop or non hip-hop) have considered suicide. I never really did listen to him, but I think everybody deserves a chance, so I looked up the lyrics to the songs. Those are five minutes of my life I can never get back. 50 Cent's lyrics are basically 'nigga' 'f*ck' 'ho' then a bunch of mess about how everybody in the ghetto loves him. On top of all that he stole the name from drug dealer Kelvin "50 Cent" Martin. And yet, he's making more money than his tiny little brain can imagine. I probably shouldn't say that though, because apparently, he knows business. He certainly managed to make millions off of idiots round the world. You have to have some talent to do that.
Guy: Are you listening to 50 Cent?
Girl: Hell no.
Guy: Oh, you don't like him either?
Girl: Please. Dude couldn't even be a dollar. And have you heard his lyrics?
Guy: *shudders* Five minutes of my life I'll never get back.

A performer of music which has become painfully mainstream, one of the common weak r & b and rap stereotypes.
His 'music' generally contains short, simple words; so those who underwent a limited education due to spending far too long in a juvenile centre can understand the point that he is trying to get across; if he had a point, that is. Note that every other line must contain a word such as "Ho", "Bitch", or "Spank".
This is the kind of performer those whom cannot think for themselves tend to follow, and in a pathetic attempt to conform, decide to buy every album he has made, as buying 'music' made by a convicted black male is now cool.

I honestly don't understand the attraction this sort of music has to our generation.

To me, this guy makes Hillary Duff sound good. And well, she should burn in hell.
On the subject of 50 cent...

I have nothing against those of the black culture, and respect them entirely.
However, I am -way- too white for this bullshit music.

You may not like the guy , but you gotta admit - 50 Cent sure has style.

(And lots of money)
'We getting money man!'

*High School setting...before 2003*
Bill Anderson - Damn , I think you gonna get up in life? I predict you'll get shot 9 times and uh...end up in some hospital, work out, bust off some tracks and become the fastest rap star to make it big , and earn 400million dollars just to have your name on some Vitamin water.

Curtis Jackson - I know....I'll see you in 5 years...In da club....take 50 cent...

*Young 50 cent stares at the Shop window , looking at the sneaker he' always wanted*
*Friend comes* Don't worry, you'll have those shoes one day.

A rapper who was the best in the beggining and is alright now.

In 50's song Wanksta, he says:

Me I'm no mobster, me I'm no gangster
Me I'm no hitman, me I'm just me, me
Me I'm no wanksta, me I'm no actor
But it's me you see on your TV screen,
(be)cause I hustle...

50 doesn't claim to be gangster, his intentions are clear and simple right here, make money. In the beggining of 50's career, he was awesome. Go to youtube and listen to any song of his unreleased album "Power of the Dollar", they're fucking awesome. After that his quality declined and he whored himself out for money. He changed dramatically to remain popular to the audience. That's why his songs out right now aren't as good as his old stuff, with the exception of "Get Up" & "Baby by Me", because, new hip hop sucks and he has to match the demand. Compared to the new guys he's still better with his new stuff but his old stuff was the shit. Even if you dislike or hate 50, you can agree he's better than Soulja Boy and that Haley Berry crap.

50 Cent is a good example of how Hip Hop + Rap changed. In the beggining of his career, it was all about lyrics and it had good flow. Then it became repetitive with the occasional popular song. Either way 50 is still a good artist as he was mentored by Jam Master Jay and Dr. Dre. He makes good songs and can still sell CDs.

The BEST RAPPER in the world. All the haters of 50 just can suck my DICK! All the haters hate 50 because he survived from 9 shots and became a King of rap, while your favourite rappers just retarded, like Ja Rule, Fat Joe, Jadakis and another rappers. The Game - sucks, he's gonna end his career after releasing "LAX" in 2008. He tried to copy Tupac's songs, but Tupac is unbeatable. He is a father of gangsta-rap, and what about Game? Huh, he don't even was in the game. So 50 is the best in da game!
50 cent'll split ya up, them coroners gon' pick you up.
