No... it's just that... two years ago... yes two years ago this was announced and we get two albums from two people we never heard about... 50 cent and Knoc-Turna'l....what aftermath album came out last year besides Eminems?

Exactly... what r they doing then is basically what I'm saying...

they're working with no name artists like 50 cent

Yeah, Honestly, I'd rather see Dre doing a camp thing like Snoop does instead. Dropping eastsidaz, his own album, the allstars comp, bones soundtrack, etc. etc. Then waiting 4 years to do something.

if you think 50 is a no name then you need to keep your ear to the street alot more cause this fool nigga has been hot since about 98 it's jsut that columbia records fucked him over after he got shot down. this fool is the hottest thing the streets since dmx's 1st record

Like I said... i dont care how long 50 cents been around, that's not what I want... sure I'm being selfish here, but all we hear is .... new rakim, new dre... blah blah blah... then we get 50 cent... when 98% of the people, including me, never knew him before, and could care less, but now that he is on aftermath, we jock him... so..... like i said... you can TALK THE TALK, BUT WALK IT TOO

50 cent is being used for 2 reasons 1) he serves as a cover for the aftermath label to wet hungry fan's whistles, while they are in the in between stage or making albums for rakim, cube, dre, etc. Classic albums definately take time to develop, and id rather wait and have a classic than rush and have an under achiever. 2) 50 cent is hot as hot can get. His talents were known of, but not fully respected here on the eastside. No one though he could hold a buzz like the one he is holding now. Dre is just releasing the beast onto the streets and letting him eat, for real. Cant hate on aftermath or 50 cent for making the right moves.
