Why so much hate towards 50?
 

Why does basically every1 on RB hate 50 cent?I think hes good, not the best but good. The thing that makes 50 better than alot of MC's in da game is dat hes been through wot he raps about and that makes a good MC.
So if u dont like 50 tell me why?

i think 50 is pretty hot.....mad flow and he has shit ta rap bout ...like tha cat keeps it real......thats whut ppl hate about him its cuz hes sooo real.....like he says he dont need rap he has the streets and shit ....i dunno i think hes mad nice ...

I have nothing against him.. I hate his fucking 14 year old stupid ass fans tho

^^Yeah that what I hate too...he isnt a rapper, hes a pop star...plus he dosent have vocab, i can guess what words hes gonna rhyme before he says it... oh yeah and 1 other thing...
HE FUCKING SUCKS

oh, I see, he's real because he got shot. that makes sense. so everyone who got injured in nam, or got cought in a bad spot is real? that what you're saying?
the fact is that 50 is a weak MC who happened to get a good deal. Theres a reason he stayed underground before he got signed. Nobody would sign him.
I have respect for 50 only because he makes millions off doing what he loves., but other than that, he's got nothing in his favour.

50 Cent sucks, plain and simple. He has no talent, which is why him getting shot was such a blessing. It didn't improve his flow or any other shit that he's brainwashed fans with. It was his blessing and my curse because Eminem realized he is black man from the hood who got shot. WHAT TEENAGE WIGGER WOULDN'T BUY THAT???

i see all of u cats tellin me how muc h50 suxs but nobody here is makin millions of dollars on rap like he is cuz aint no one here tht got the skill he does... grant it is not the best far from it but hes still better then all of u fucking haters

am I the only one who realizes anyone who stands up for 50 Cent are either new-bs or lame ass MCs? Once you get any kind of skill and listen to his shit and then you will realize our point.

i have listened, maybe im biased to the shady afdtermath label but listen to ur shit then his shit and tell me ur better then him and u r just a dumbass cuz u r not on his level
if wht u is sayin tht compared to other real mcs hes weak then yeah id agree, but no one here is better then him here so lets not kid ourselves

im better then 50, ill have a record deal soon....just watch....im working on my demo now, and soon ill have every record company on my nut sack.......

perhaps there is a reason for the hate by the wannabes who discover the good mcs and then watch as they become better then the recruiter hey A2Z
maybe theres a reason for ur hate becuz 50 makin millions and u on a web site bitchin how only lame ass mcs like him, jealousy and envy perhaps? maybe theres a good reason u a free agent
o and the flu ive read ur shit and i no u got skill so aint no doubtin here, go for it man i look foward to any alblum u may release keep the shit posted so we know

thats not true, he was alot better when he was underground and he also did 2 songs with nas, nas isn't the type of person that will do a song with anyone that could pic up a mic...he actually used to have telent before he sold out. now i cant stand him he sold his soul to sell CDs but he does have talent if he choses to use it.

like i have said 2000000 times just because someone raps about the streets doesnt mean they dont have talent, if you judge buy his new CD yes he is wack but guess whos back and power of dollars are actually good CD's.

thats also not true, maybe they just dont like his music, or they cant relate to what he says so they dont like it, or maybe they are like me and dont like the fact that he sold out to sell CDs

50s flow and vocabulary is too simple

also hes a pop star rather than a rapper and his shit is way too overplayed

yes he was much better underground with cuts such as... hwo to rob... ghetto quran... etc... he use to do it for the hood... nto money... but once he got sined.... he did it for money like 99.9% of commercial rappers.. i can bet nething ne of u would go n do a track with lil bow wow... for 50 60 70 g'z... moneys what makes the world go round... n 50 is a hard workin man recorded like 4 tracks for his cd in like a day or 2... hes cd is annoyin.... trys too hard... but dont hate on sum one whos makin money while all of us are bitchin on rap battles.com

lmao . . . 50 is wack . . . period .

MInd theory and all the other haters, how is he wack?hes got a fucking record deal. And does anyone know where i can get power of the dollar?

So Nelly must be one of the dopest artists ever because he has a record deal. Ja Rule must be one Hell of an artist to have a record deal. Most mainstream artists are wack. Plain and simple. I don't hate 50 Cent because he is making millions of dollars, I hate him because he talks about the stupidest shit. I don't care if that's the way he grew up, the point of the matter is, that his lyrics are terrible.
They don't inspire you, they aren't thought provoking, they are simply terrible. He has a vocabulary of a third grader, and cannot come up with any thought provoking concepts.

A record deal doesn't mean shit. It just means that you know someone that's connected or you lucked out. Skill has nothing to do with having a record deal. Only reason he has one is because he is a black man from the hood who got shot, and spoke about the ghetto. I bet you Eminem signed him just to keep the illusion that every rapper is from the ghetto and talks about being a gangsta.

thank you. well said.

They don't inspire you, they aren't thought provoking, they are simply terrible. He has a vocabulary of a third grader, and cannot come up with any thought provoking concepts.

^ That says it all, when i listen to/make my raps i attempt the thought provoking side of it all. Cause who cares who poped who the most, or who got shot hell that dont matter.

hey ive been shot twice in riyahd...can i be real like 50...blah

fuck that...so what hes been shot hes rapping what he knows...good on him...he obviously dont know shit....evidence...the vocab and topics...why do alot of poplehate 50...nto because its gangsta,or that shes makign alot of money,they hate him cause his shits played out....its compleytly dead,noone but foolish commercial followers cares abotu clubs and shit like what is portrayted...thers alot more to this then jsut 50...the entire thing with the fake thug shit,the flashy pop idol lifestyle...thats the problem people have...not just cause hes 50,but because hes sold out...he used to be underground,his shit ws pretty good,i wasnt a fan but the shit i heard i didnt mind,now its different,its not 'real' any more...its fake commercial pop shit for the companies to cash in on...im not jealous cause he has money,lucky him...so what,i dont like 50 because his lyrics are garbage,his shit appeals to fake wigga thugs everywhere because of hte beat,its not even sounding like he tried to make it half decent,he just knew hed make money off label names and commercial appeal...thats why i hate 50...just caus eyou have millions doesnt mean your a dope emcee...fuck that idea.

thankyou muhthugga...slapped sense into no brain commercial clowns ...

hes exactly right...the lyrics arent good.i have nothign against gangsta rap,nothing at all,i dont mind listenign to it ocassionally,but people have cashed in on it,and just listen tot he beats...ill shoot you dawg ,coz im fromthe hood yall...who gives a fuck...honestly...its all good if he lived that way,but at least make rap worth listening to...psh.



im suprised there arent meetings within communities and shit abotu how companies portray the lifestyle...they are basiclly saying black people live in ghettos and shoot peopleto live...wich may be true in some cases,but is also somehting that shouldnt be glamourized,noone makes songs about white serial killers and shit they dont glamourize that,noone makes songs about white people killign people....ina way these comapnies are being extremly racism and small minded...the underground is exactly the opposite,they show a listener that you can think beyond the square of somehting,people live lives that dont include guns and violence like hte industry portrays,they show the listener the real world,what they think about shit,what happens to them,good or bad...underground artists show people how to think,and promote thought and elevation,the encourage growth,not belittling societies into murders...if you think 50 is real good fo ryou,he prolly did do things he speaks about,it is probably his life he tlaks about,but why didnt he continue to do it,now hes jsut making shit up,talkign about pussy and cars nad bitches,clubs,glamourizing thugs making them look like somehting other people want to be to be cool...and it shuldnt be like that,ask any real thug and i bet hell tell you not to want to live a life like his,because its nothign like the television box...or the music mainstream artists produce to create easy money.

Thank UUUU AteTrack,wheneva u say sum1 iz wack here come tha herb groupies sayin "o u fuckin hataz,he got a deal u dont."50 jus maaadd played,to tell u tha truth he got his fame from dat beef w/Ja Rule (wanksta).Yall tha type of kids who be sayin G-g-g-g-g-g-unit and dont even know tha membaz...

Re: Why so much hate towards 50?
 

just because 50 has been through the shit he raps about doesnt make him a good rapper you fucktard. the life experience and a rap telling a story are two independant things.

50 is one of the weakest rappers lyrically ive ever seen. it'd take less effort to list the commercial rappers weaker than him than it would to list the stronger ones.

lil bow wow (barely worse)
lil romeo
afroman
bizarre

and thats all i can think of of the top of my head. the only reason hes gotten anywhere is that dre and em have basically pushed his "real gangsta" image so hard that people think they can get real insight by buying his records......which they can't.

He's overatted......simple as that

Agreed, he's overrated.. But, not nearly to the level that everybody in this thread has taken it to.

Re: Why so much hate towards 50?
 

^^^^^^50cent aint no emcee , because emcees dont rap bout Clubs and shit , second of all 50cent has no vocab , no wordplay , he spits out simple lyrics.............

Here's the thing about 50........

He's not a good MC

but he's a good rapper....... nahmean?

alrite not a comment but a question.... is it the rapper that chooses to be generic and whack after or is it because the produce tells them to do so in order to make money and cater for the "pop" mainstream kinda fans? Or is it because they just run out of things to say? bizarre really....

aight

50 does have style but thats it......

i believe noone likes him because everyone says hes a great lyricist.....

he has NO lyrics.......there basic

then they compare him to tu pac.......

its wutever but he sucks lyrically.......

i can listen to him when i mdurnk at a party and be like yeah this is tight........

but if im tryin to listen for someone to inpsire me and someone who i listen to their lyrics and be like "whoa".......

its definatley not fifty.......

hes basicallly just a commercial rapper....

writin about wut the audience desires to hear.........

honestly everyones into the gangsta rap shit......

so they began to market him.......

and so here we are.......talkin bout him cause hes makin money and is being considered a great lyricsit......

its all business and makin money homie.....
anything in commercial is not art........

its money and who can make the most....

Re: Re: Why so much hate towards 50?
 

lmao.

damn i feel like a hip hop god sometimes.

the word emcee came from the abbreviation of the two letters of MC.

and what does MC stand for... for move the crowd or master of ceremonies.

most rappers/emcees (same shit) imbedded the abbreviation, MC in their culture, mostly meaning moving crowds.

and how do you move a crowd, by making them dance.

emcees are universal. they come in mad diffrent shapes and form.
because i am an emcee. and i may make a track about the club.. and flip it and talk about some political shit.











oh and 50 is just overatted. but i don't hate him.

^^ He's Just Droppin' the knowledge today...

i doubt ur racist but is that really neccessary to say?....not really...
