I don't really like rap, he has some catchy songs but nothing interests me enough to buy let alone download. I've seen him in interviews though and he seems like a really cool guy.

You're a shame to hip hop heads everywhere. You try to encourage the common folk to listen to him, when it appears you have only started to recently yourself. The lines you've quoted of him were terrible, so either listen to Get Rich or Die Trying and Power Of The Dollar and try again, or cease and give up. Also, Graduation was terrible compared to College Dropout and Late Registration. As 'Ye would say, You looosssssseeeee.

Because I didn't like rap to begin with, and when I hear crap like that on the radio, it makes me not even want to be open-minded to the genre at all.

[QUOTE="superheromonkey"][QUOTE="Phantom_J"] I must disagree, I liked graduation more than Late registration.

Maybe it's just your kind of vibe, but I was referring to his actual concepts, album length, lyrical quality (IMO), how relate-able it is, and his passion. To me, the first two were better using these as the judge.

I didnt start listening to 50 cent, kid, I listened to In Da CLUB on my $300 cd/walkman that I got for christmas at night while listening to FM radio like 7 years ago when he was first getting famous and everyone liked him, so u are a shame to telling people to be ashamed

Great, so you had an expensive CD player and ran across his BIGGEST hit on the radio, congratulations. Did you listen to the rest of the album, or Power of the Dollar? Regardless of your response, the sample lines you posted were terrible compared to lyrics of his in songs like Ghetto Quaran. That's FACT. And actually, he had a record deal before In Da Club, but because he got shot up, the label dropped him before he could release anything.

I have not liked anything out of fifty since How to rob. Since he actually has got somewhere he seems to me to just release material that is just enough to call "music " to make money.

Well, obviously he's not very talented. And he's a famous millionaire despite that fact. I would say that's almost everybody's reason. (A few people may have been shot by him. They would have their own reasons I'm sure.)

He is exploiting black culture, causing untold numbers of people from inner citites to think that killing, guns, promiscuity, etc are cool, he tries to act like a thug when he partially owned a water bottling company... I can go onsuperheromonkey
Stop saying rap music creates violence, violence created rap music.

But on 50 hip-hop fans hate him, because he came into the music industry criticizing rappers who sold out and went pop, then he the exact same thing. Rock fans hate him because he's a rapper. I went from liking him, to disliking him, and now i'm indifferent. GRODT, Beg For Mercy, and the mixtapes were good though to me and most hip-hop fans.

You said 50 promoted killing, guns, promiscuity in the inner city. Those thing were already there years before 50 cent and they aren't going anywhere.

Errr...... not really.

50 cent is a Hooker. all he does is make hooks.

as a lyrical rapper?... to be honest qwertyu it sounds like you've only just mastered the basics of english if you truly believe 50 cent makes good rap lyrics.

there are alot of rappers who can rap about nothing and have sick metaphores and others who can rap about a subject and just not have any punchlines. 50 cent has NONE. as a commercial entertainer, yeah he's sick no doubt. But as a Rapper? as a rapper who uses lyrics???...

can someone finish this sentence off for me please?

I guess you can predict the future with absolute certainty then, congrats on that. I never said if fifty cent stopped rapping that it would change anything. I simply said I don't like fifty cent for his exploitation of the black, inner city community. He is definitely not contributing to make it any better that is for sure.

How is he exploiting them when the largest consumers of his music are suburban teenage kids, and honestly it's not his jobs to make it better. It would be nice he did, but it's not his job.

I do think rap music has changed the way some kids think. They think that the only way to be cool is by saying the n word in every sentence. I using the ids at my high school as an example.

But the ones who take the music seriously and actually do indulge in activities such as prostitution and murder are the ones who turn into gangsters and do jail time
