i dont want to call it as an album... it sounds like a mixtape... can anyone show me a song that cant be made by any decent producer at a home studio?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??
KARMA.Even though 50 is a better artist than Fat Joe, he shouldn't have put up Joe's album on his site, rofl!

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. Respect It or Check It was amazing.& for I'm Paranoid, a guy like 50 who talked on a whole album of how rich he is, should be willing to spend the money for the sample.

Quote from: Makaveli's Food & Liquor on October 30, 2009, 08:55:09 PMThe 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!
