Full review

50 cent is an artist from the "ghetto" in New York. Previously to being a rapper he was a gangster and has been shot over 5 times!!! This artist burst onto the scene with this, his debut album "get rich or die tryin'" in 2003. He comes from a very poor background and was forced to "run the streets" as a youngster.

50 cent is in a group called "g-unit", if you like fifty you will definately love g-unit, i suggest you buy their album also, this is called "beg for mercy" and was released in 2003 also. Up until 2004 g-unit consisted of only three members - 50 cent, Young Buck and Lloyd Banks - but there are now two extra members - The Game and Tony Yayo.

This album is full of amazing rap tracks including, "In da Club", "P.I.M.P" "21 Questions" and "If i Can't".

The tracks are:
1. Intro (skit)
2. What Up Gangsta
3. Patiently Waiting - feat. Eminem
4. Many Men (Wish Death)
5. In Da Club
6. High All The Time
7. Heat - feat. Lloyd Banks of G-Unit
8. If I Can't
9. Blood Hound - feat. Young Buck of G-Unit
10. Back Down
11. P.I.M.P (Original 50 cent only)
12. Like My Style
13. Poor Lil Rich
14. 21 Questions - feat. Nate Dogg
15. Don't Push Me - feat. Lloyd Banks of G-Unit & Eminem
16. Gotta Make It To Heaven
17. Wanksta (Bonus Track, only on Bonus Version of Album)
18. U Not Like Me
19. Life's On The Line

This guy is just as good, if not better than 2pac, he is an artist that eminem signed back in 2002. Im not going to go through each track describing it to you because i believe it will ruin it nfor you but trust me buy this album or else!!! lol jokes. Tracks to definately listen to are: 3.Patiently Waiting; 4.Many Men (Wish Death; 5.In Da Club; 7.Heat; 8.If I Can't; 9.Blood Hound; 10. Back Down; 11.P.I.M.P.; 14. 21.Questions; 15.Don't Push Me; 16.Gotta Make it to Heaven; 17.Wanksta; 18.U Not Like Me; 19.Life's On The Line. Thats basically all of the tracks!!! This is an awesome album if you can buy the bonus version as "Wanksta" is a TRACK!!!

This album has won many awards including album of the year (2003), and rightly so!!!

Since this album is two years old you can buy it for as little five pounds from woolworths, WHSmith and Virgin.

I love this type of music because seeing people talk about their struggles and the way they got to where they are at the minute is fascinating. 50 cent has a unique flow and is a great poet (if you could say that) but his rapping makes you want to nod ur head and sing along...if you know the words of course!!!

Buy it please i'm pratically on my knees begging you!!!
