50 Cent's idea of entertaining lyricism includes a song titled "Bloodhound" where he says, "I love to pump crack/ Love to stay strapped/ Love to squeeze gats but you don’t hear me, though."

What is occurring here, and in most cases in Hip-hop, is the push from big record labels who aren't concerned with the integrity of the music or message, but how many units of a violent and negative record they can sell.



It's the N.W.A. discussion all over again..  ::)
50 Cent is the 46435th rap-artist who talks about guns and dope..
This article is gullable in all it's naiveness.
