Good to hear Em and 50 going back and forth like that on the track.By the third verses the track strengthens up and you feel the intensity.I like it, 50 with a fast paced flow is a little unusual, Em is good, barely any "accent" present.Dope shit

That incident was faked by 50, confirmed in his new book. I wouldn't be surprised if there's a stunt behind this too.

I don't know... I think this will either get pushed up a few weeks like how Encore did back in '04 or it will just drop on the scheduled date... no way are they going to just re-do the album again cuz it must be out there in physical form already, so wouldn't that be $$$ wasted on all the CD's, cover art, etc. ?

could 50 Cent be pulling a Lil' Wayne? leaked his shit on purpose & dropping this as a "mixtape"?

shit happened to Wayne & he sold 3 million.

just a thought.

he didn't leak it himself, but it got leaked.

but 50 could be doing it for something similar.

people obviously listen & say "damn, that's good shit" & then when he drops something else people might cop it.

the beat on the 3rd track "Death To My Enemies" is out of this world! :o

I'm gonna wait until we get an official word on if the album's dropping early or getting pushed back. There's no way 50 is scrapping it and recording more material, at least I don't think that's the case. The packaging and all that is already in place.

1. The Invitation - 4.5/5, nice way to start the album
2. Then Days Went By - 4/5, solid track, I'm feeling the beat and 50 got it in
3. Death To My Enemies - 4.5/5, DAMN this beat is bananas, 50 killed it as well... really feeling this joint
4. So Disrespectful - 4.5/5, 50 brings the heat once again, fires some shots
5. Psycho (Feat. Eminem) - 5/5,  :o this track is exactly what the title is, both ripped it, especially their flows, and the beat is crazy
6. Hold Me Down - 4/5, even though this concept has been done before I liked how 50 flipped it, and the beat was dope
7. Crime Wave - 4/5, I'm feeling this one, this track is good for the gym lol
8. Stretch - 3.5/5, might grow on me more but pretty cool track
9. Strong Enough - 4/5, this shit is hard
10. Get It Hot - 2/5, ehh not feeling this one...
11. Gangsta’s Delight - 3.5/5, it's aiight, maybe a grower
12. I Got Swag - 2.5/5, I think this track had some potential at first but 50's rhymes were too simple and dry for me
13. Baby By Me (Feat. Ne-Yo) - 2.5/5, it's decent for a poppy single, the beat is nice which saves it and Ne-Yo's hook is aiight, but not my type of shit...
14. Do You Think About Me - 4/5, smooth shit, I like this
15. Ok, You’re Right - 4/5, this track grew on me... beat is a banger
16. Could’ve Been You (Feat. R. Kelly) - 4/5, the final version on here sounds better than the one that leaked... kinda out of place though for it to be the last song

overall I give this album a solid 4/5, every song was at least decent if not solid except for "Get It Hot", "I Got Swag", and "Baby By Me"... might even cop this one and this will be my first purchase for any G-Unit release since Buck The World, and my first 50 purchase since The Massacre

Well, after 1st listen, definitely better than Curtis. Beats were pretty strong through out. The thing that lets this album down are the hooks. He used to be the master of hooks. Maybe I just need to listen to it more and maybe they'll get better. Can't give this a rating yet.

Dope ass album...

Which were the tracks that didn't make it to the final cut?

I Get It In
Get Up
Flight 187


That all?

and "Do What It Do" with R. Kelly

Thanks... just downloading all the "leftovers" !

no doubt... I think "Shut Your Bloodclot Mouth" and "Play This On The Radio" could be considered leftovers as well, if you don't already have those  ;)

sounds pretty good, just started playing it. seems real cohesive with the more hardcore sound 5 tracks in, but i know tracks like 'baby by me' are gonna pop up and ruin the vibe.

I haven't listened to the album yet but don't believe the hype I bet that this is 50's plan to create some controversy AND get pushed up a week, so that he doesn't have to go againts Rihaana, Timbo, Lady Gaga.... Plus it's 3 weeks, it's not that long, it has happened before (Carter 3)

Post by: Matty on October 28, 2009, 03:26:52 PM
ok so the second half of the album was a lot weaker. stronger production (eg dre/khalil) would have made it possible to pull off a whole album with this kind of vibe properly. as it is the production is kinda cheap in places.

final version of 'could've been you' was kinda crappy too, exactly the same beat with an extra corny verse from 50. also very random as the last track.

I'm kinda surprised at positive reviews I've read here and on some other forum prior to me listening to this one. The album is trash and here are my reasons:

a) He's trying to hard on the "street" track, using some weird drunken like voice
b) His hook game has fallen off drastically
c) A lot of the beats are very cheap, mixtape sounding which is such a waste considering he has access to the Aftermath studios.
d) This is the 3rd album from him (Curtis, T.O.S.) which sounds like Dre had very little to do with the album, sounds more like a G-Unit records album. As I predicted he must have been lying about spending more time with Dre & Em this time around because there's no way Dre would let some of those cheap beats on the LP
e) Album lacks those genuine introspective tracks, even when he talks about more personal stuff it's all hidden in some "I'm the best person in the world attitude)
f) he used to have such a melodic flow, now he's completely off beat
On the plus side

a) he definitely stepped it up lyrically
b) keepers are So Disrespectful (some funny disses), Psycho (great Dre beat and good chemistry with Em), Hold Me Down (nice melodic flow), Stretch (again very funky melodic track), Ok You're Right (banging Dre beat, good for the ride), Could've Been You

Curtis is miles ahead of this one. Both are albums with no cohesive feel, just random tracks thrown together but at least on Curtis the production was better, his hooks were on point most of the time and he had his normal voice.

R.I.P. 50 Cent 1999-2006

a.) the new voice definitely seems influenced by em's new style... can't say I love it but it fits on a few songs. def shouldnt be on every one
b.) ehh.. i think it has more to do with the kinds of beats he's using now. It's alot easier to do a hook to a melodic track than to these more grimy new york beats
c.) agree
d.) yup
e.) this is one of my main problems with it too. He's on that superman shit, and I really wanted to hear some deeper shit (which from some of his vids/interviews I felt was coming). This is one of the reasons I really like the Massacre (sometimes I think more than GRoDt  :-X)
f.) eh, sometimes. sometimes he's really spitting imo.

def not the magnum opus-before-retirement I expected.
Title: Re: 50 Cent - Before i Self Destruct leaked
Post by: Leggy Hendrix on October 28, 2009, 05:05:51 PM
to be honest the shit fades away very quickly, it started off pretty promising, a few bangers early on (Death To Enemies, So Disrespectful, Psycho) but the quality takes a serious hit the longer you listen, 8 of the last 9 tracks are ass imo (ok, you're right being the exception)

i mean wtf is "do you think about me"?


not impressed i gotta say, expected better after the way it was talked up...maybe it'll grow on me but cant see it  :-\

I don't R1ZE, 50 could have the most boring beat on his mixtapes back in the day (back in the day goes to 2006 btw) and kill the hook.

Good thing is that those 6 tracks I like are really dope, not like the best of the worst.

hopefully he re-records this one and makes it better because as it stands it's really not that good. in fact i can't think of one song other than "ok you're right" that had a bangin beat. lyrically it isn't horrible(on a few tracks it is)but fifty's flow ain't too good plus the hooks sound uninspired. i didn't like "curtis" either but it's a much better album than this. production sounds cheap and lazy.



oh well. :-\

Post by: Meho on October 28, 2009, 05:20:06 PM
That's another problem of mine, you got all the money in the world why in the fuck would you want to make a grimey album.  50 needed to reinvent himself but not by going backwards. But let's say you can ignore that, if you make a grimey album at least have quality production, if not you sound like an undeground broke rapper who can't afford better beats. Raekwon pulled off a grimey album after 10 years because he had production to back it up imo.

Title: Re: 50 Cent - Before i Self Destruct leaked
Post by: Rebel on October 28, 2009, 05:32:08 PM
Average. After a few listens I think this is about as good as CURTIS... maybe a bit worse. I don't want to call it his weakest album untill I listen to it more, but overall I'm a bit dissappointed considering this is supposedly his last album for Aftermath/Shady. First half was aggressive... then it just went downhill. Most of the later songs were trash, imo. Dre clearly didn't have much influence on this album as claimed by others.

My favourite songs:

1) Strong Enough
2) Death To My Enemies
3) Psycho
4) I Got Swag
5) Could've Been You

Everything else is either "meh", average or garbage, imo.
Title: Re: 50 Cent - Before i Self Destruct leaked
Post by: Meho on October 28, 2009, 05:40:30 PM
It's no coincidence that Psycho is by far the best track on the album. From his vocals, hook, delivery... you can tell that track was made with Dre & Em in the studio. Great track.

It does, its like he didn't plan the tracks positioning. Its like he just chose the tracks for use, then chucked them on in that order. What are Baby By Me and Could've Been You doing at the end. Baby By Me should of been about track 4 or something (preferably Get Up instead of it) and Could've Been You shouldn't be last track. For me last track should of been Crime Wave.

Decent album for me.

The songs i thought might be good, were good. The songs i thought might be average, were average. So i wasnt really blown away or disappointed

Death To My Enemies, Psycho, Strong Enough are all sick! (seems everyone agrees)

The Death To My Enemies beat was an annoying loop when i first played, now i cant stop playing. The sorta 50/Dre i wanna hear.
Title: Re: 50 Cent - Before i Self Destruct leaked
Post by: R1ZE on October 28, 2009, 05:46:31 PM
1. The Invitation: 4/5 - good beat, nice intro
2. Then Days Went By: 3/5 - really hurt by a shitty hook
3. Death To My Enemies: 4.5/5 - beat is insane. head banger, fif kills it
4. So Disrespectful: 4/5 - piggy bank pt 2, i feel it. cant wait for game to come back
5. Psycho: 4/5 - really not feelin eminem's gay ass celeb killin raps
6. Hold Me Down: 4.9/5 - its been done before, but i love it. the way he says "DOWWWWN" on the hook is kinda annoying to me tho, sounds weird.
7. Crime Wave: 2.5/5 - mixtape material
8. Stretch: 3/5 - its aight, feels like a waste of a beat
9. Strong Enough: 2.5/5 - he's rapped on so many of these kinds of tracks.. and this is a weaker one. meh
10. Get It Hot: 1/5 - fuck is this garbage?
11. Gangsta’s Delight: 3/5 - eh, its aight. filler.
12. I Got Swag: 3/5 - " "
13. Baby By Me: 4.5/5 - had this on repeat when it came out, you can't ask for much more out of a radio track. the bass at the beginning is redic in the whip
14. Do You Think About Me: 3.5/5 - fucks with the super chipmunk vocals? I don't care if they're not related, Do What It Do > this
15. Ok, You’re Right: 4/5 - its solid, but I don't love it. this track especially wouldve been better with either his GRoDT or Massacre flows
16. Could’ve Been You: - 4/5 - idk where he gets off puttin this as the outro. i like the track but something really seems off to me with the drums/bassline.

overall: maybe a 6.5/10 -  far too one-note, way too top-heavy, and there's some really cheap sounding beats. Which isn't what we expect to get (or should get) from a star of 50's caliber.

GRoDT & Massacre > Curtis & BSiD. Too lazy to think about specifics... though if you add the best tracks from this, curtis, and ToS you'd end up with a pretty alright album  :P
Title: Re: 50 Cent - Before i Self Destruct leaked
Post by: Chamillitary Click on October 28, 2009, 05:48:58 PM
my only complaint about this was his choice of order for the tracklisting.

plus i think he should of made some like "real deep, like emotional, farewell, it's over, it's been amazing" type of track to finish it; if this is going to be his last album (we'll see).

Funny, how albums thats sound authentically hip hop, in vintage form, is always labeled "as sounding like a mixtape" these days. SMH. I guess it sounds like an "real album" when it has features with hottest R&B artist out and feture everyone from Young Jeezy, Kanye and Drake (now) and Rhiana and Dream.  ::)

I agree that Physo is also a gem, that track is great, Em and 50 going back in forth is dope and the beat is dope as fuck! Grimey CD, but I geuss im just gettin sick of 50....Not Great not bad, Get Up should of been on the album for sure.....Hoooks are boring as they get

Fifs hook game really fell way the fuck off with this, he needs to get rid of about 4 or 5 tracks, beats sound cheap and hooks are just uninspired. He needed more Dre joints, Get Up and I Get It In shoulda definitely been on here, aswell as full version of "Shut Your Bloodclot Mouth"...

3.5/5 atm for me, the bangers bang hard though!

Downloading!!  ;D

The leak is most likely someone within 50s camp knowingly or someone at interscope most likely tryna do 50 a favour...or thinkin they doin him some help and trying to get his release date pushed up so he dont have to compete with everyone. Especially after how he must have felt stupid with the kanye defeat now a second with rick ross at his case all day even though 50 made him look stupid too many times, it won't be a good look. So this leak COULD be good for him. We'll see though. Would be a waste to push it back now.

I'll let y'all know what i think after i checked the album!!

I like 50.  I like Curtis.  I'm a fan that won't deny the critics.  I'll argue with them if I think they're hating but if it's legit, it's legit.

First reactions, the album is weird.  It sounds like a batch of the track are from one recording session for a different album.  They all have a similar boom-bap soul influenced sound.
Then I hear shit like Psycho and Stretch it sounds like it should be on another album.  The vibe is different.  The boom-bap sounds more raw (like pre-get rich), the second sounds like polished gangsta (more like Get Rich material).  The second half of the album - basically everything after strong enough isn't that great.

It looks like someone is pissed.

i remember 50 Cent like turned his office upside down when the "Follow My Lead" video leaked.

now? i bet somebody is getting fucked up lol.

So this must be what Game took away from the Aftermath studios the other week.

LOL!

hilarious. hahah. but umm yeah if this was a stunt,,this is crazy. I agree some of these tracks need to be replaced by some khalil-em-dre tracks.

not done listening to it but upto now i'm feeling the Invitation and Psycho. the beat is haunting.

Well 50 said once he got with Dre for him to do his tracks for the album, that they were scrapping a good portion of it. So that feeling you have is probably from that. I was always under the impression though that Dre was going to do the bulk of the beats on this album. Similiar to what he did for Relaspe and to further build buzz for Detox. I still would not be surprised if that is still the case regardless of this leak.

Unless I missed something, 50 has been quiet about this leak. Which leads me to believe this is either not the finished album or something else. Hell he destroyed a flat screen TV when that track with Robin Thicke was leaked off of Curtis lol.

i admit the album is not as worse as i expected, but there's no balance.
Psycho is easily the best track on the album for me.

also, i'm surprised Could've been you gets such positive feedback: i think it's even worse than the few seconds i've heard from the leak a while back :P


All we are waiting for now is for Radiotube to come in here and say its the album of the century.

The first half of the album BANGS, imo. The invitation is a great intro track. Death to my enemies reminds me of the Wu for some reason, don't ask, it just does lol.

So disrespectful is great, he's nasty with the Game disses, damn, i will say it's fire although i'm quite surprised he chose to do so on his album..i  mean damn '' Your daddy f****ed your momma, then f****ed your sister'' not sure i dig personal attacks on these kind of matters but either way, 50 at his best when he's being a big meanie, and this track bangs  8)

Pyscho is a tight track. the hook is cool, Eminem lossed the accent, and Dre doing his thing with the beat. Y'all was all complaining that Dre needed to lay off the piano and he did, this track his original, digging the baseline and the drums and claps on this one.

Gangsta's delight is preety cool too... i hope they record some new shit for the november 23rd release  8) more khalil, more dre, more mr. porter more Em.

Saying that it could have bee so much better if he had included sunday morning, get up and they burn me....

Fingers crossed he changes a few tracks before the release date, well see.

Overall it's OK, but 50's last two mixtapes were better than this. BISD sounds like leftovers from War Angel and Forever King.

After quick skim through, only three tracks stood out for me. Death to my enemies, psycho and so disrespectful.

So disrespectful bangs like a muthafucker, death to my enemies got a nice raw beat to it, suprised dre did it to be honest, just doesnt sound like his mixing, sounds abit raw, but i like it. 50 flow on the third verse was liive, should have spit like that througout the joint, would have been more instant imo. Psycho is heated, 50 hook is fire but so disrespectful sounds like the best joint for me so far. 50 sound like he was during the grodt era imo on this joint.

everything else sound like skip/passive listening music on first listen. I'll give this a proper listen tonight but right now, its not terrible but its nowhere near dope either. But its got three dope joints on it...im even suprised with that to be honest lol

That's pretty much what I think but I also liked Hold Me Down and Stretch because it's reminiscent of the old days when 50 had the melodic flow. Then there's Ok You'Re Right (mainly because of the beat but 50 is cool) and Could've Been You (real nice for a chick track, great beat from Khalil too)

it may be decieving because i compare it to Curtis & his stuff on TOS & i feel it's far ahead of those works.

i never like Could've Been You, Do You Think About me is kind of weak & Okay, You're Right is average.

but basically the rest super exceeded my expecations for this album.

like i also said, it's nowhere near some of the other albums we consider for "album of the year", but for a 50 Cent album, a guy that everybody says is finished, i really enjoyed this shit. 8)

yes, it does:

Am I allowed to say this is whack?  I really tryed..

dont worry.. only Chamilitary thinks this album is FIRE.. lol no hate

it may be decieving because i compare it to Curtis & his stuff on TOS & i feel it's far ahead of those works.

i never like Could've Been You, Do You Think About me is kind of weak & Okay, You're Right is average.

but basically the rest super exceeded my expecations for this album.

like i also said, it's nowhere near some of the other albums we consider for "album of the year", but for a 50 Cent album, a guy that everybody says is finished, i really enjoyed this shit. 8)
your honesty is respected ;)

7 songs through and anyone hating is just doing that; hating. For a real fan, this is the grmiey shit we wanna' hear from 50. This is reminding me of some Heat, Back Down, etc. type shit; just beats not as excellent, but still very good so far.

I only checked that Psycho track and I turned it off during Eminem's verse already.

Forreal its sad. Rappers who put out good albums regularly get no mention, and 50 gets 8 pages in one day.

After 2 listens.

1. The Invitation - Real intro appropriate. beat is pretty solid. hook is better than average. 50 sounds more hungry on here than he normally does nowadays. - 4/5
2. Then Days Went By - Hot, soulful beat. Raw, grimey, boom bap. Flow is decent. Hook is eyy. At times, comes off as a cheap, mixtape cut. Ok song though. - 3.5/5

3. Death To My Enemies - HOT Dre beat 8) Hook is ok. 50 raps on this pretty hot though. - 4/5
4. So Disrespectful - 50 going in on this one lol. He at his best on shit like this. Beat is hot 2. Hook is decent. - 4.5/5

5. Psycho Ft. Eminem - Whats new? 'Nother hot Dre beat. Hook is much better on this one. 50 flowed his ass off on this. Clear Dre bring the best outta' 'em. No accent = hot Em verse. He rapped nice on here. - 5/5

6. Hold Me Down - 50s slower, stop, pause (whatever u wanna' call it) flow works on here. Beat is ok. Some corny lines at times. Hook is eyy. - 3.25/5
7. Crime Wave - I like this shit. That "no no no" in the background is tiiiight. This shit is grimey. Def 1 of my favorite joints. - 4.5/5
8. Stretch - This beat hot 2. Another good, hood sounding joint. - 4/5

9. Strong Enough - Hook is average. Beat is cool again. Some of these songs are surprising me. - 4/5
10. Get It Hot - Here is the mainstream crap I expected to hear lol. - 1/5
11. Gangsta's Delight - Again, very boom bap, grimey. - 3.75/5

12. I Got Swag - This ain't nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be judging by the title lol. - 3.5/5
13. Baby By Me Ft. Ne-Yo - I remember this being worse, still not too good though. Not a fail though lol. That sample was a poor choice though. - 2.75/5
14. Do you Think About Me - I like the soulful sample as I always do lol. A decent cut for the females. - 3.5/5

15. Ok, You're Right - Beat has grown on me but still the worst of the 3 Dre on here. Track is pretty good though. - 4/5
16. Could've Been You Ft. R. Kelly - Glad this leaked and cut off Detox lol. Not good enough for Detox. And talk about a random track listing place. - 3.5/5

My biggest beef with the album is the track listing positioning on certain cuts and as mentioned, 50s hook game has diminished pretty badly. As of right now, I think this is better than Curtis though, which had more 1-2/5 songs than this album (Get It Hot only).

My concern is the replay value of some of tracks I like so far (Stretch & Strong Enough to mention 2).

I really hope they take a look at the comments this leak has produced and switch the album up slightly before the release date. As ive said before replace get it hot with they burn me, hold me down with sunday morning and baby by me with get up and to me youve got an equal to GRODT. The tracks that are great on this album are by far some of 50's best tracks lyrical and beat wise ive heard in a while.

I like on days went buy when hes talking about losing his viginity and his uncle stealing his coke and stealing from his grandmother.

"she was 20 i was 12/my granmama said she raped me/i just a smile from ear to ear/saying take me baby take me" lol

"She looked at me side ways like i was a thief or somthing/it hurt me, come on that wouldnt hurt you?/i pistol whipped that nigga till his face went purple"

He mentions this situation with his uncle in from pieces to weight.

Also he talks about a guy called country which i heard him mention on a few songs as well as in from pieces to weight

There has to be an incredible amount of 50 stans on this forum. He can put out recycled bullshit and get mad props for it. I dont feel like you guys hold him in the same "space" as other rappers. The entire album sounds recycled. No advance in content, No concept records, and the hooks ::). C'mon Son, fuck outta here with that bullshit. This is no better than an average album. I see people giving songs 5/5 and 4.5/5, really? After a listen or two? The hold me down song is HOT but again, he gettin madd props for doing songs that other niggas already done, not to mention THIS NIGGA IS SINGING ON THE HOOK. By the time this shit actually drops, how many of you will really be still listening to it? Thats how you rate the value of an album. Obviously you all have opinions about the album, well, That is mine!

Post by: Action! on October 30, 2009, 07:37:11 AM
I'm confused at this recent hook bashing that's been occurring in the past year or so.  Drake gets it a lot and so does 50.  If you can do your own hooks that's talent.  A hook is often a croon.  It's often supposed to be smooth.  I respect artist more when they do their own hooks even if it's not 100% top notch.  For example, Game's hooks aren't 100 but I'd rather him try and release the material then him consistently have some feature.

BISD album has plenty of flaws.  I barely listen to anything past the 9th track but it's not as bad as you're saying. 

Additionally,  every time an album drops it doesn't have to reinvent the game. 50 said he's doing hardcore rap and has stuck to that since he came into the game.   That's what he's selling and you have to be oblivious to that if you expect anything else from him.  People hate on 50 for this but they love Raekown for sticking to his guns with his recent album.

I don't think this is on a Get Rich level.  There's room for improvement but it's not some shit album like you're dismissing it as.

Props for posting you honest opinion thats fair enough and i respect it.

Although i agree with Actions last post 50 said he was coming with some grimey shit and thats what he done. Obviously hes got the mainstream style tracks on there, what artist of his calibare wouldnt.

I feel this is a big step up from curtis and am fairly happy with the result. The albums been pushed forward a week or so, hopefully they will change a few tracks to make it more of a solid album. Also im looking forward to seeing the film and documentry that come with the album.

ok... after first listening i thought this album is quite good. not that good as people used to say on this forum but not as bad as i thought it would be.
but damn... i've downloaded this yesterday and today i don't even want to listen to that shit. and this is really sad. this album is boring after 2-3 listenings.

Power Of The Dollar was his best album and i'm sure he'll never record anything close to this.

On The Power Of The Dollar he had an outstanding energy and some nice hooks. On GRODT he lost his enegry but improved hooks. Beats were amazing and overall it was a good album. Massacre had few bangers but overall it was average one. Curtis and BISD =  :puke:

That's 50 i want to listen. What the fuck has happend with this flow????? -> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yNNamgRM_8k

Get Rich had plenty of passion.  Massacre it was toned down.  Curtis it felt he was just rhyming.  BISD some of it feels natural, some of it sounds forced. 

I just want to hear 50 spit one more time like he did on Till I Collapse Remix.

I agree, if you're good at doing hooks, its a gift within itself. 50 is def good at hooks, something not many rappers can say, eminem/snoop and a few others can be put into this section too but overall most rappers cant do hooks.

However 50s hooks on this in general fell off, though the hook on psycho is 50 at his best.

If you aint good at hooks though, you should get people to do your hooks in general though, do your own hooks once in a while but in general get someone who will add to the track instead of you bringing the track down with a weaker hook...alot of rappers do that and it makes sense. If you can't sing, dont.

His verse from G'D UP

[50 Cent]
Cocaine, heroin, ecstasy, marijuana,
I'm new on that greyhound from NY to the Carolina,
paperchase different name, same face don't catch a case,
 my road dogs on parole his baby girl's 4 years old,
we play the block pistol cocked, you could shoot or get shot
 kill you for your crack spot take everything your ass got,
semi-automatics spray, bust back or run away, niggas talking in the hood
we'll handle this another day,
in November you take my shit, you should be dead, if you can catch aChristmas,
I'll send you a gift, niggas will come and leave your ass twisted,
them hollow tips shells burn baby burn
 see niggas get merked,  babies born make the world turn,
I've seen it all crystal
clear so I keep my pistol near,
hearts never full of fear homie I stay well aware
of what's goingaround me motherfuckers want me dead
I go with a smile on my face, when it's my time kid

i've downloaded this yesterday and today i don't even want to listen to that shit. and this is really sad. this album is boring after 2-3 listenings.

you know what? yeah... thats true for me too. And it's a problem - I'm supposed to have this on repeat. but really theres a couple songs on here that I wanna hear again - none that I need to.

not to mention THIS NIGGA IS SINGING ON THE HOOK.

HOLY SHIT :o

OH NOEZ!!!

Lyrically and production wise Strong Enough is the best track on the album imo


Oh and i really like the Hooks on the album, probably my favourite part about it

Get It Hot should be nowhere near any album

I agree.

Also, if you replace the second half of the album with various tracks from War Angel and Forever King you have a very very dope album.


Talking In Codes
Respect It or Check It
Get Up
I Get It In
I Line Niggas
Red Rum (Murder)
Better Come on Your A Game
Get the Message
Put that Work In
Flight 187
They Burn Me

Dope shit.

I loved I'm Paranoid but I understand if you don't want to pay the money for a sample so you just go the mixtape route instead.  There's a high art to doing mixtapes which you'd think 50 would know...I mean he really was a huge factor in establishing the power of street tapes.

The albums a lil dissapointing, i mean there are some really good songs on it but some of the street songs sound too forced and the mainstream tracks are all ruined by little things (sample on Baby By Me, crap hook on Do You Think About Me, Kells on Could've Been You) usually 50s mainstream songs are bumpable and fit in the album whereas these just sound like they were added to the tracklist

The most dissapointing thing about the album though is the production, i know he wanted it to sound grimey and street but some of the beats just sound cheap, which is annoying since 50 surely can't have a small album budget :-\

But the album isn't at all terrible, it just sounds abit like one of his mixtapes with a few Dre beats and chick tracks, it's easily better than Curtis (although some of the street tunes on that would've fitted onto this album nicely)

It isnt terrible and its not great. its above average for 50 and for my ears for a 50 album. Its better than the last two albums and thats a start. I agree with the rest of you statement and have to give you mad props for the Profile Pic! You are a dude with taste!  8)

when it comes to massacre, its my 2nd favourite album of 50... can anyone make songs like "outta control, candy shop, a lil bit, my toy soldier"? they are all bangers, and u can feel how professional they sound when u listen them... i dont call BISD and CURTIS as relased offical albums... these can be only mixtape quailty albums... the only thing making you buy it is 50 cent is on them... thats all.... GRODT and MASSACRE was something proffesional and unique, something worth to pay, something making you still listen by years... who is listining to CURTIS now? and who will listen to BISD after years?????

I'll say this, Curtis and BISD do suffer from poorer production than Get Rich or Massacre.  This is most likely due to the mixing phase.  The beats themselves aren't necessarily bad.  Matter of fact I think both have really dope beats but they all suffer from poor mixing.  I guess that's the genius of Dr.Dre.

I get that 50 wanted this album to have that grimy, street influenced, mixtape vibe to it...but he might've overdone it by picking some of these tracks. The average mixtape costs $5, a retail release costs about $15. There's a reason for that.

BISD does have its joints though.

After a thorough listen through - I'd say the album's pretty good. Not great - not bad - but pretty good.

50 got some substance in the lyrics this time around, exactly what he needed IMO. Beats are grimy and suit the subject matter. I wouldn't complain about the production for what it is. Sure, there's no "In Da Club superhit" on there, but those kinds of tracks are flukes anyway. And it's true that the enjoyability starts withering away after about the midpoint, with just a couple highlights on the second half and an absolute bellyflop of an ending, but on the overall I think 50 did good this time around. No way is this going on my "best of 2009" list or anything like that, but at least I enjoyed listening to this unlike the last 50 album.

Oh, and "Psycho" with Eminem isn't all that. It's obviously on there just because 50 wanted an Eminem feature.

I actually some what agree. I mean i love Dre and have loved the detox leaks that some people hated on but that psycho song, while its a good song, is overrated. kinda reminds me of American Psycho 2 by D-12. At the time everyone loves that song i always thought it was overrated
ok.
well for me it's simple: it's a mediocre album, so that track easily sticks out.

That logic is terrible. That's the same as liking a weak song just because its surrounded by weaker songs.

After a thorough listen through - I'd say the album's pretty good. Not great - not bad - but pretty good.

50 got some substance in the lyrics this time around, exactly what he needed IMO. Beats are grimy and suit the subject matter. I wouldn't complain about the production for what it is. Sure, there's no "In Da Club superhit" on there, but those kinds of tracks are flukes anyway. And it's true that the enjoyability starts withering away after about the midpoint, with just a couple highlights on the second half and an absolute bellyflop of an ending, but on the overall I think 50 did good this time around. No way is this going on my "best of 2009" list or anything like that, but at least I enjoyed listening to this unlike the last 50 album.

no it's not, cause you didn't understand the point i was making.
i already expressed the fact that i like Psycho.
with my last post, i added that i think that BSID is mediocre to me.
so off course it was easy for me to decide that it's the best track of the album ( in other words: sticks out).

it would have been different if i thought that BSID was a great album.

A weak album. Not very many terrible songs, but absolutely zero standout tracks. I listened to the whole album and not one of them touched me in a way that I would want to add them to my permanent collection and put them on rotation. Maybe its just me, maybe I'm just tired of 50. I deleted the whole album, as my ipod doesn't have enough space as it is.

not one of his better club joints, but it's bumpable. 8)

so i guess that whole rumor that "this isn't the real album" is false.


Dude you got bad taste in music , Get it hot is the worst song on the record ..

50 really ruins that 'Psycho' joint with his extreme constipated flow, especially on the last verse where they go back and forth. Eminem is alright on it, woulda been a great beat for his own album.

^alright, you can say that other albums are better than this; no one would disagree; but why does that make this album poor?

i can name 150 better albums, but that doesn't mean this is the hottest trash on the street.

i mean some people come up in hear & co-sign Gucci Mane & then have the "hip hop nerve" to come & bash 50 Cent?

01. The Invitation - Rather dull beat. 50 sounds hungry and focused but the subject matter is so 6 years ago. Not a good way to start the album imo, showing that that the whole project is gonna be about recreating that GRODT feel, acting like he's still in the "hood" 2/5

02. Then Days Went By - Now that's better. Again talking about the street life but this time in the past, some nice storytelling about when he first had sex, how his mother thought he was smoking crack.. Again the flow is on point and he's not sounding lazy at all. Unfortunately the track is dragged down by the terrible hook and another amateur sounding beat. He really should've used that bridge as the hook, would be one of his best tracks (The Lord don't have imperfections baby,
so I think I'm perfect the way he made me.. some say I'm cool, some say I'm crazy.. Some say I ain't shit..some say I'm amazing
) 4/5

03. Death To My Enemies Crazy Dre beat, sounds like it was tailor made for 50. Again 50 sounds on point (especially the 3rd verse) but once again the subject matter is played out, something that he has done 100x before. This could've easily been on GRODT but that is also the biggest problem of this track (he keeps trying to make another GRODT, no growth) 3/5

04. So Disrespectful Now that's that classic cocky 50 Cent track. He sounds relaxed and in the zone. It's not Ether or anything but a funny diss nonetheless. Nice piano drop from The Bizness, 50's flow is perfect for the track 5/5

05. Psycho Lovely Dre beat that sounds like it was made during the Relapse session, gotta love that orchestra vibe in the chorus. First chorus that's up to 50's standards. 50 sounded kinda uncomfortable trying to follow Em's fast paced flow but still nothing to be mad about. Em did his thing 4/5

06. Hold Me Down This right here is the 50 Cent that made me a fan in the first place. Great and very catchy hook over a funky beat, singy-song flow adapting to the beat, basically a nice laid back joint. The concept has been done plenty times before but still... 5/5

07. Crime Wave Terrible track. Again with the all the gun and "I'm from the hood" talk. Not to mention another cheap production and a very annoying chorus (that "yeah, yeah!" wtf was he thinking) 1/5

08. Stretch Similar vibe to Hold Me Down. Very catchy hook and another effort of some sort of concept 4/5

09. Strong Enough Skipper. Average track from the production, weak hook, forced "I'm hard" flow. Lyrically it's quite nice though 3/5

10. Get It Hot Worst track so far. Beat sounds like it was made by a Soundclick producer and the track itself is just terrible and as corny as it gets. Some real ABC rhymes from 50 too 1/5

11. Gangsta's Delight Havoc and 50 usually cook up something real nice but this one is one big disappointment. Again sounds like a mixtape track and again nursery rhymes from 50. 2/5

12. I Got Swag I like this one. Cool beat, flow is on point and 50 is always good at this type of tracks. 4/5

13. Baby By Me First single. Nice hook from Ne-Yo and Polow provides a smooth backdrop. 50 doesn't sound bad at all but the biggest problem is that his flow, lyrics sound so predictable and formulated, like he went into the booth thinking "okay this is a club single" 3/5

14. Do You Think About Me I give him props for getting more personal about his relationship with his baby mother but that's where it stops. Boring track with a terrible hook 1/5

15. Ok, You're Right Real ignorant music right here but it works. Epic beat from Dre, on some movie score shit. 4/5

15. Could've Been You Leaked a while ago and I'm thankful that he decided to still put it on the album. One of the best 50 chick track, real nice laid back vibe and hilarious chorus from Kells. As far as the beat go, DJ Khalil & mixed by Dre... it doesn't get better than this 5/5

Basically to sum up the cd is dragged down by the majority of the beats sounding too mixtape-ish, weak hooks, predictable and recycled subject matter and most importantly 50 showing no sign of growth as an artist at all. He's still obsessed with GRODT and as long as he'll be in that mind state, well let me quote Jay "men lie women lie, numbers don't"

I prefer the version with Slimm but it's still a dope track. Strong enough is ill too, really feeling that joint. Agree with the rest of the interview though, I remember that youtube video where Ty Fyffe was showing all the beats he had for 50. Then he goes and picks some super wack joint for the intro?

Post by: Action! on November 26, 2009, 02:48:22 PM
Those Ty Fyffe joints sounded hot.  Reminded of Khalil. 

Stong Enough is my favourite joint on the album.  Man's World, the bonus cut, is really dope as well.  I hope we get the og album (tracks he recorded before he went and remade the album).
