Im amazed at how 50 Cent has become loved and so popular just coz he signed....

[Gangsta_T]

ive heard this guy since he hit the scene with d.dot on how to rob...his voice is that of mason betha...its the exact same flow...exact same tone...and callin people wanksta is creative?...lmao...so what if he records constantly...so does too short...whats ur point?...his fake track with biggie is nothin special either...like i said from the jump...if 50 cent is so good...then how come NOBODY gave him props like this til eminem gave him his seal?...i dont think i seen one person on here ever bring up his name until everyones favorite man signed him...and thats fuckin wack...i know for sure if he wouldve been signed by nas nobody would be on his nuts like this...hed just be another rapper...of if he was still underground people wouldnt even care about him...only cuz eminem signed him...thats why people ride nuts for him

dat was some real shit !!!

I guarantee that is 50 Cent was from anywhere in Cali some of you that say he ain't dope would do a 180.

i dont care where theyre from...he could be from my city for all i cared

That's why I put "some", and that is very true cause there are some heavy west coast biased people here that probably don't listen to much if anything outside Cali, and would like him if he was from the west coast.

ill disagree with that...i plain out hate mad rappers...50 cent is one of those mad rappers...just goes out and disses people for no fuckin reason aside from tryin to get big

It all started with "How To Rob" and that record was just a joke.  It was like a roast and the Mad Rapper was repeating "this ain't serious", both those guys said it was a joke plus they even went after the guys who produced the song "I been skeamin' on Tone and Poke since they found me/ Steve know not to wear that platinum shit around me".  Then everyone (Sticky, Ghost...) got shook after that and started goin' off on 50.  So he shot back at them.

SGV, please.  Listen to yourself.  The reason nobody liked hm, at least in my case, was because I'D NEVER HEARD OF HIM.  How stupid are you? Do you expect people to just know every underground rapper alive? I live in Charlotte, NC.  How easy do you think it is to get 50 cent stuff here?  I'd never even heard of the guy, I didn't even hear of How To Rob.  When I started hearing him, I liked him.  What is wrong with that?  LOL, You don't have to insult people just because we got a different opinion, grow the f*ck up.

sgv-the whole thing you wrote about the mad rapper, just described your man benzino. if you think he dissed eminem for any reason other than to get noticed you are straight in denial. same thing when chino dissed tupac. he didn't know tupac. he never met him. he dissed him because he knew it would get his name out there. and it worked. it worked for benzino. and it worked for 50.

YOU'RE A HYPOCRITE. YOU TAKE AWAY FROM ANY STATEMENTS YOU MAKE BECAUSE YOU CONTRADICT YOURSELF CONSTANTLY.

  FOOlish..!!!
You obviously can't have heard much of his underground shiiit..

[GangstaBoogy]

with Eminem....

You ppl amaze me.

A year ago he was labaled as a nobody and got dissed by great rappers from Big pun all the way to Ras Kass. No one gave 2 shits about him but he signs with Eminem and get affiliated with Dre now everyone loves him.

I don't get it.

IMO he is not a good rapper, he never has been and probably never will be. I've heard his new material and other than being funny its pretty rubbish.

Also why isn't posts regarding 50cent put in the outbound forum, afterall he ain't west coast.

 

I agree wit u all tha way! When did Ras Kass diss him?

lmao at grow up...anyway...theres plenty of underground cats that get props so why couldnt 50 get props?...its cuz he was never looked at as a tight rapper...but now that hes became an eminem affiliate people automatically put him up in an elite category...thats my whole problem with it....i didnt insult people...i never said...oh u guys are fuckin idiots cuz like 50 cent...u guys dont know shit...blah blah blah...i mustve hit a nerve with u tho...get over it....

[jeromechickenbone]

ok you said you hate 50 because he's a mad rapper-(basing that statement on his song "how to rob"). well so is benzino. and you admit you like him. hypocrite. chino became famous after he dissed pac. so by your definition, he's also a mad rapper. you admit you like him. hypocrite. your not hearing me dude. the point is that chino became well-known after he DISSED pac. thats the exact thing that 50 did with how to rob. so if 50 is a mad rapper, then so is chino. and you hate mad rappers, but you still like chino. so your argument doesn't hold water homie. and i'm confused. are you calling me jesus, or is that a cool new thing to say (ie chuuuuuuuuch)? i'm not mad at you dude. i like discussing other peoples points of view. sometimes it gives me a new perspective, and i understand why they see things that way. in your case however, you make statements that discredit earlier shit you have said. i just like to point that out to you.

[S.G.V.]

lmao im callin u jesus...LOL....actually: Its All Jesus is the equivalent of Its All Good...i would never call u jesus...chino got big after Pac dissed him..nobody knew about chino dissin pac until pac dissed him...so no...im not a hypocrite...cuz before hit em up and the infamous one bar nobody was talkin about chino...but when 50 made how to rob it went straight out to the masses and got everyones attention that way...that shit was intended to make a name for themselves...while chinos was just a freestyle that happened to have tupacs name...and i like i said....i like some of benzinos songs...not benzino...theres been a few coo 50 cent songs...but hes still a wack rapper like benzino...so i dont know ur so hell bent on me liking benzino...i defended him...so what...hes the underdog...everyone was gangin up on him...so i decided id say some shit in his defense...whats wrong with that?...nothin in my book...

[jeromechickenbone]

the fact that chino dissed pac made him famous. fact. if he never says pac's name in his rhyme, he never would have gotten the recognition of about 95% of people that heard of him. it made pac shout out his name in his most famous diss song ever. so therefore the fact that chino had one line about pac in a freestyle was the thing that made his name known to the masses. chino is definetly dope. but if your gonna hate on 50 for doin the same thing, and calling him a mad rapper, then you're calling chino a mad rapper. and you said you hate mad rappers. so if thats not being a hypocrite i don't know what is. and i'm not hell bent on anything. and i'm all for defending the underdog. but a lot of the justifications you have for defending him go against a lot of other things you say. let me say this-if you were like "i can't stand 50's flow, i think he sounds like mase, and his rhymes are too simple for me," then i couldn't argue with you, because thats your opinion. but when you say your reason for not liking him is because he's a mad rapper, well so is chino and benzino whom you openly admit you bump and think is real. so why is it different for 50?

[STILLDRE IS THE GODFATHER]

alot yall say hes wack but i gotta admit he alright but more humerous than a genius look at the skits towards ja rule  u gotta admit hes a real rapper whos still got his luv on the streets hes got street cred    not alot of rappers can say that nowadays

[madkilla]

Looks like everybody's been drinking their hater-aid for the holidayz.  Although everyone is entitled to their opinion, so here's mine.  50 Cent been around for a while and when he first dropped all he did was dis EVERYBODY.  But, just like with Van Gogh, 50 Cent's debut album Power of the Dollar was never released because of bootlegging.  It's a shame, I think that album is tight as hell and I love the fact that he disses a lot of fools I don't like, prime example Ja Rule.  So I would have to agree with earlier posts he is entertaining.  His mic skillz aren't Super, but he's pretty good when he comes correct, but he does have some whack shit, c'mon who doesn't.  Fact is this fools been shot on 2 separate occassions and jacked Ja-Fool for his chain which is on the cover to 50 Cent's CD Guess Who's Back which is also pretty tight.  I can't comment on his mix cds since I haven't heard all of them, but I recently ordered some through a online hiphopsite.  And I ain't really feeling Wanksta all that much, it's aiight, but I think his earlier work was better.  Only thing I'm confused on is in the beginning I thought he had beef with Nas, but it seems they are cool now.  And don't nobody be trippin and hating on me, this is my opinion.  And I ain't biased I'm str8 from the westcoast, but got to give a MC propz when he deserves them.  Half the fools saying he's wack probably ain't even given him chance and listened to his shit.  I went through that shit with Nas, I heard some of his so called hits and I wasn't feeling him.  Then one day this fool came in my job and hit me up with a copy of Illmatic and I changed my mind, some of that shit on the Lost Tapes is pretty tight too, but Nas also has wack shit.  I think I'm feeling him too since I can't stand that magilla gorilla looking, 2pac song stealing, no talent ass rapper Jay-Z.  And it is kind of common sense that people would like 50 Cent more now that he's hooked up with Eminem, hmm he's maybe one of the biggest household names in rap other than Snoop.  Why hate on him for that, shit why hate on people for joining the bandwagon, it's just music.  Everybodys got to start listeing to shit one time or another, peace!!  hell I remember when Eminem was a no name, I was bumping Just Don't Give A Fuck CD single and then BAM!!!

[GangstaBoogy]

Yup.
Eastcoast-ppl knows the deal..

fu-cK tha leass koass, all they do iz take klassik West Koast shiet, fu-cK it up and make a video for it

[Twentytwofifty]

Only thing I'm confused on is in the beginning I thought he had beef with Nas, but it seems they are cool now.  

I think it's the other way around.  He was cool with Nas earlier ("Too Hot" & "Who U Rep With") now he probably has problems with him now cause of his Murder Inc. ties.  

50 Cent: "...Nas' business makes me uncomfortable workin' wit them (Bravehearts)"
