why does 50 sell records
why does 50 cent sell so many records if he is not a good lyricst. He sells more than jay-z,nas and who ever else you want to put on the list do you really think it's the beefs as most whould say?
|
he got alot a dick rydas.. jumpin on him cause he got shot.. n sold drugs n shit.. so there from ppl think he hard...
but he got some good songs.. and some nice lyrics i dont give a fuck what sum yall say.. |
He sells a lot because he got shot, and because hes the "in" thing... Much like yoyos or.............................................. pogs......................
Also, the success of his newest album is partially due to lies... Sayin an album has gone platinum in 1 week will provoke cats (by cats i mean stupid kids) to think "Oh... A million copies in a week! It must be a downright smashing album! I'll just ask mother to drive me there in the mercedes, lexus, or porsche, whatever mood im in at the time. And then i'll tell her to give me a hundred dollar bill to wipe my ass with so I dont smell when I go to the music store to buy 50 cents album with my allowance of $1000 a day. Then i'll have a slumber party and marvel at how cool being shot and losing loved ones and having no money and conforming to drug addiction is! How swell!!!" |
was that bein a smart ass to me?
|
He sells so many records because he's paid his dues. 50's sucked a lot of executive Jewish dick to get to where he is today.
|
maybe fuckers outside of Rv actually like him...maybe that has something to do with it....
|
because he promotes his shit like a motha fucker.. 50 Cent is everywhere you look..

Nah it was just bein a smartass in general. Your cool. Aus! represent! ... even though i only been here for like 10 months -_- |
Because the hood loves him. especially gun play
|
aiight, I'll explain this to you kids again...
50CENT and rappers like him sell records because it is statistically proven that the highest demographic of individuals that buy chart topping rap albums are *gasp* white suburban teenage males and duhh, they wanna hear about that "gangster shit" and gunplay that he talks about, whether it's true or not isn't even the issue though so I won't say that 50 is fake, cuz iono if he just talk shit and lie on wax or what, I didn't grow up with his ape ass...but that IS why he sells records though, people living vicariously through him... and no, he does NOT have good lyrics so don't ever ever say that again, anyone that thinks 50CENT is "lyrically" even borderline should be shot...he's a horrible lyricist man...all he does is make club songs, he might as well be just another rapper from the South...I'd type more but 50 isn't worth much more words, but yes, I statistically proved why 50 sells records, now stop asking :)... |
Because people who listen like simple rhymes they can understand, and the gangster bull crap just makes them go "Wow, I wanna be like that". Overall it's all bout people and what they think is cool, and being shot and ish is cool.

No, it should be worse than that. I think they should have their organs ripped out then have to eat them, then eat another man's balls. But this pretty much sums it up. |
The illusion of Street Cred + Multi-milliondollar advertising machine = ANYONE'S a smash hit. Think man, Nelly went platinum. You think rap's about lyrical skill? Do you think it's EVER been?
|
It used to be about lyrical skill, but it got lost somewhere between the 80's and 90's
|
them beats n catchy hooks, werd
|
I buy his albums for catchy beats and lyrics.
he hasd good club bangers |

bcuz he raps dikk head da fuk u on?he must b good he sells recordz think ass hole |
he got shot 9 times................duh.....................
|
To shorten up what ya'll said....
He is marketable. Even if he went back to his Power of A Dollar days, he still would be able to sell. |

Lol. Damn....I don't want to meet you on the streets. Well, it's just rich teenagers that like beats over poetic lyrics, pretending to be gangstas, while giving in to peer pressure, and thinking they're on top. It's all bullshit though! 50 doesn't deserve the fame, money, and glory that retarded life-failing kids and MTV give him. Damn, if only I could control the fucking mainstream music industry. |
I got shot 9 timez
i have the best producer in histroy behind me i Have the Best White Rapper of all time I have a 6 pac and Pecks Ladies think i got the Magic Stick So called Street cred O did i say i got shot 9 timez? |
Dres beats and the whole Aftermath publicity...
also the majority of the people arent entertained by ill lyriciscm because most dont understand it...so they like the club songs more peace |
i belive hes famous for a few reasons...
1.Hes marketable,meaning he has a catchy flow,he has a nice body,he talks about the shit that sells which is normally drugs,alchohol,and guns...which most of that shit he dont touch....and hes in that whole gangster thin 2.Hes got Eminem,Dr.Dre,all that G Unit stuff..hypin him up and all that shit.and theyr'e doing a good job at it i must say....cuz...hes selling.... So all in all we should all just shut the helll up...cuz just think would you...yourself right now skill and all be able to go and be able to sell that much in a week?? be able to do what he does? in that short of a time! no..mots likely not..and untill any of you can say that you can..i'd just be quiet.....cuz dope lyricist dont sell... |

no!!!! thats the whole point. You CANT be thinking that, because he really ISNT good. Alright look here audio heads... Next time you hear a 50 cent song, break it down and judge it like you would an audio head on RV. He has horrible delivery, a boring voice, wack lyrics, but decent beats. triple N is better than him in those areas. So is calam, dooms, seventhird... shit even nos has a better voice, delivery, and lyrics than 50. Hes the most sub-par rapper of all time. |
Because people are idiots and say hes dope.
'OMGZZZ FITTY CENT GOTS A NEW ALBUM OUTT!!! IM GONNA GO N BUY IT CUZZ IM WAY COOL!!! OMGGG PWNAGEE' |

NO, it has nothing to do wit beef....it's uneducated mafuckaz that fell in love wit songs like "in da club" and " 21 Questions" Mafuckaz that don't no shit about hip hop and rich white kids that wanna be down with the most "hood" thing out there...and for them sayin 50 is hood qualifies for the stupidest statment ever proposed in the entire transition of Time...since biblical times! the answer....for 1million dollars...why 50 Cent sells so many records...is..... Uneducated Rich White People! |
so many 50 haters...
but they all bought his first album...and enjoyed it! |
Quote:
Hardly...but this is the opinion of someone who has been a fan of 50 since 1999, ever since he was on that track with Next off the "Welcome II Nextacy" album, it was called something like "I'm a Jerk"...about whackin', lol. But yeah, then I heard "How to Rob" off the In Too Deep Soundtrack and was a fan. 2002 I picked up "Guess Who's Back?" and loved it. When "Get Rich or Die Trying" came out, I was disappointed. There was less hard gangsta shit, and more "I'm a P.I.M.P 'cuz I gets da bling bling, yo!" I was feeling a few songs though - High all the time, Heat, What up Gangsta, and Patiently Waiting. The singles got old after a few weeks. I won't mention "You Not Like Me" or "Life's on the Line", 'cuz they were on Guess Who's Back. But yeah, I got a reason to be disappointed in 50. |
dont get me wrong...i agree.i feel the same,but i enjoyed get rich...but his new album i aint feelin at all,but then again i could say the say for eminem...i didnt reckon much to his new album either.
guess whos back was real good though...i enjoyed some tracks on power of the dollar aswell...50 aint good lyrically at all.But hes smart and a good entertainer.Ya cant knock that. |
if 50 cent lived the gang life like he says he did, then why did he try rap game as a way outa it, gang life is a way of life whether u in the italian mafia russian or a latino street gang or bloods or crips its all the same its a way of life...i dont think he was actually in a gang i duno for sure but he does talk about a gangster lifestyle and if he lived that lifestyle hed still b in it not rappin bout it. the fact hes hardcore black and a gangster makes the white suburb kids like him and the way he still at least tries to act hood keeps the blacks happy too so no matter what hes sellin his albums..but i think a lota ppl like us dont like him cause of his attitude he jus thinks hes the next jesus christ and that pisses everyone off
|
Simple..he makes music people 'wanna' hear...well most people wanna hear...he has a good flow..and tight beats......and hes well look at him
|
50 prolly has tha best beats on his CDs
|
