Let me play devil's (or 50, same thing at times.  ;D) advocate for a minute since I am bored.

50 has all but shown he is done with Interscope with this release.

Being the ego maniac he is, he personally wants his "last" album to go out with a bang, so he is saving all his resources (Dre, Timbo, etc) for a grand finale album to show what Interscope will be missing once he leaves

Any non 50 solos from now till his release will most likely be on a low budget and low promo. (Translation: Yayo and Banks are FUCKED!)

If he really wanted to stay with Interscope he could have come up with a better product then this album ( I liked most of it, but BFM was damn near a personal classic for me)

Now back to reality. This shit is funny as fuck! You live by album sales, you will die by album sales. Game take notes, you might be next if ya ain't careful.


Makes sense-if at all that is really his plans-Sounds Very Plausible!
It ain't happenin, Bibles I'm still packin them
And jackin demons wit them 44 magnums" T-Bone

50 has to either want off the label or this is his way of showing "appreciation" of all the moves he deems that Interscope has done in the past as bad (leaking videos and singles early, not letting him pick them as well, add any other excuse or problem here).

Cuz the majority of ppl who are usually gonna cop albums are the real fans, which are gonna buy that shit as soon as possible (remember doing that?).  After the first week, mostly everyone who was gonna buy ur album has bought it.  And the numbers fade out after that..

no, i mean real fans. like i know the real fans of weezy, who copped tha carters and 500 degrees, etc. are NOT the same fans coppin tha carter 3. once wayne switched up his style, and brought his swag into his rap, and you know what im sayin with waynes like big transformation. anyway, once he switched he got a whole mess of like non-true hip hop fans who just liked his music. so you take some of his old fans who just wanted to check out and see if C3 was any good, and you add in all those fake fans who switched over to weezy when he started rappin in NUMEROUS metaphors in every other line, and "swag rapped" and you got....A MILLIE!

The album is not that bad. "Straight Outta Southside" is the shit! Songs like "Piano Man", "Close To Me", "No Days Off", "I Don't Wanna Talk About It" and "Party Ain't Over" are entertaining. I don't agree with yall about the single... I think "Rider Pt. 2" is one of the best tracks on the album. All of them came on point with their flows on it. I'm disappointed by Banks. Yayo surprised me on a few songs, but he's still wack to me. Young Buck and 50 are okay.

damn poor Curtis, if his ego wasn't so fucking big I'd almost feel sorry for him. maybe he will humble himself after this.

Yeah but I mean all the ppl who are bandwagoning him right now, and got every fuckin Lil Wayne remix, feature, and album on their computer who really think he is the best rapper alive..

Those nikkas copped the album, and those are real fans, the blind followers no matter what..
