Get Rich Or Die Trying - classic

Advantages: good listen
Disadvantages: can download intead

Best CD i have ever bought, one of the first bits of music i heard from the Hip - hop and rap genre. Was a skeptic and didn't really like rap until I heard this. This was the highly anticipated mainstream debut from the black listed rapper, has a very dark and aggressive vibe to it with a well blended mix of radio friendly singles such as '21 questions' and the world wide hit 'in da club', all in all a solid album you can play from start to finish. ...

Will u marry me, 50 Cent

Advantages: fit pictures, good songs even if you're not into rap
Disadvantages: lot of swearing

...might think why not just get this off for free but then you'll miss out on the bonus CD with his interview (looking gorgous) and the "Wanksta" video. This is a great album as a lot of the songs came out as singles or videos. If you like one of the songs on this album you'll like all of them. Great for dancing and parties. Some things on this album were never done before and the lirics shown a completely new perspective to life. This album has some ...

My 50 Cent's Worth

Advantages: Superb album, great tracks
Disadvantages: Violent, a lot of talk about guns

This album was tipped to be a hip hop classic and does not fail to meet the hype. Curtis Jackson aka "50 Cent" was infamously shot nine times in streets of Queens, New York. He has sold over 2.1 million copies of his debut album and is already being compared to rap legends, Tupac and Biggie. All the songs on the album are top class, one of the only CD's I can sit and listen to all the way through without skipping any tracks. "In Da Club" is the ...
...guaranteed to fill the dance floor. The tracks, "Life's on the Line" and "Many Men" go into a slightly darker world of the urban streets and ghetto life. But, "21 questions" shows another side to the hard-ass rapper. His lyrical talent is unquestionable and fair play to Dre and Eminem for discovering him. Definitely worth buying! ...

50 BACK WITH HIS BEST

Advantages: got a unique style
Disadvantages: hes an idiot

After hearing 50 cents first album 'power of the dollar' in 1998, I, like everybody on the earth couldnt wait for him to release this album with shady records. This brought him into the mainstream and now he is one of the most famous rappers (not the best). On this album, the beats and production from Eminem and dr dre are of a quality that can only be dreamed of and also 50 cents lyrical flow is captivating. There is one problem though, with all ...
...headlines, he never stops talking about the fact that he got shot nine times and lived, even once comparing himself to 2pac (the greatest rapper ever) and his lyrics are sure to aid in the topping up of lead alredy in his body. 50 cent cant be stopped, so you MUST buy this album, because its da BOMB! Here the track listing: 1. Intro 2. What Up Gangsta 3. Patiently Waiting - feat.Eminem 4. Many Men 5. In Da Club 6. High All The Time 7. Heat 8. ...

50 Cent

Advantages: Dr.Dre Has Touched it with his midas touch, song written by Dre Eminem and 50.
Disadvantages: None

This is a fantastic album, it has been a while for me to hear a real rap album, i hate it when people think hip hop and rap are the same..... well there not. Deep poetry in this album, hear Many Men great track lyrics that will shock ya and take you into the story like Tupac could do, 50 is not Tupac but 50 is different dont compare him to him, Great album his best so far, compared to his others on jive label but i guess DRE wasnt with him then, ...

50 ways to lose your lover

Advantages: Fresh
Disadvantages: Soon becomes stale

I first heard 50 cent on the radio. i consider myself a heavy fan of hiphop. It wasn't that I hadn't heard of the chief, but I wasn't overly impressed with all the hype surrounding him. When I eventually listened to the album, I found it to be a mix of classic hooks on one hand and some woeful beats and substandard rhyming on the other. PIMP, What up gangsta, lifes on the line, heat; all great production. But so many below par efforts reduce this ...

50 comes hard. Get your mind right for this!

Advantages: Dr. Dre's Beats with 50's lyrics = Multi-Platinum
Disadvantages: Might bring danger upon himself with those lyrics.

...If you want to get a little soft you can skip to "21 Questions" with Nate Dogg killin' it on the chorus. This album has it all, and will leave you crying for a sophmore release. Once your done playing this album until it melts (which you will), hit the store again and cop "Beg For Mercy" by 50's group G-Unit. Holla back soon 50....We're waiting for the new album! ...

he got rich, i wish he died tryin

Advantages: if you listen to 50 you can think you "cool", "hip" etc etc
Disadvantages: if you actually think this is good hip-hop your an idiot

basically from start to finish, this is music for the masses. it lacks originality and soul. its directed towards everything bad about the hip hop culture and most listeners guess they are hard as nails. really theyre not. give me a tribe called quest or some big L over this rubbish any day. ive been a fan of hip hop for a few years now and if this is the way its going its a sad day for everyone involved or who just love good ORIGINAL music. hes ...
...fake about rap music in general. the only good thing in this is the beats that dre produced but the rhymes are amatuer and weak, pac biggie pun and big L will be turning in their grave at this piece of crap. my advice to anybody buying this is dont, cop a common or mos def cd instead, u might actally learn a thing or 5 from some real wordsmiths. all in all this is wack id rather smoke crack. however if u happen 2 be an idiot youll love it. ...
