all the singles that 50 dropped from the masscre (disco inferno, candy shop, just a lil' bit) were massive club hits when they came out. hate it or love it, those records did their thing and were excellently crafted from a production standpoint. as a dj, there was no way you could not play those records and the response to them was always huge.

Yeah, I could agree his production wasn't up to notch on Curtis but I don't think Amusement Park would be good even it had an amazing beat. I really enjoyed Straight to the Bank. I wish that track had better production.

the timbaland/danja joint with justin timberlake was a great single and probably the main reason that curtis actually sold a few records. 50 was a complete hypocrite for it, but the teeny boppers loved it and again a great club track. if he'd saved outta control rmx for curtis it might have been a different story.i think the reason 50 did so well previously was by being pop but having incredible production to back it up. that's why tracks like 'in da club' (dre) and 'candy shop' (scott storch, dre) helped sell millions of records. curtis was completely lacking any dre tracks that would have made good singles. fire was far too pop sounding, even for dre.

he's a hypocrite because he's always tried to maintain a hard image. ..... what he is and what he thinks he is are two different things.
if dre was so worried about his 'legacy' he'd be distancing himself from 50 nowadays.
i'm not joking. if dre cared about money he'd be selling beats to any old fool. its about good music and lets face it, 50 is making some pretty shitty music as of late.
