As part of an interview series for SXSW, Queens rapper 50 Cent kept it relatively candid as he spoke on the state of Hip Hop and music in general. The G-Unit rapper even revealed that as far as sales are concerned, he’ll never top the success of his debut album Get Rich Or Die Tryin’.
Despite the severe decline in album sales across various genres, 50 Cent spoke on accepting this new musical climate and elaborated on the feeling he gets when making new music.
“Newsflash, I’ll never sell 13 million records again,” said 50 Cent. “I’ll never sell 10 million records again. I don’t think anybody’s gonna do it. It’s a different business. It’s a different thing and I’m cool with that. I’m making music because I love it and it’s why I’m here. There’s nothing that can actually compare when it’s right. What it feels like when it’s right. When the music is just dead right and it’s like ‘woo’ that energy that’s there…that’s some special kind of high that you get addicted to and you’ll chase it for the rest of your actual career.”
Fellow rapper Eminem was also brought up during the conversation as 50 Cent touched on the lack of rappers who are also able to song write and pointed out Em as an artist who has in fact succeeded in taking on songwriting.
“I think the best rappers are like battling each other. They come up with the wittiest lines—[the] coolest ways to insult a person you ever heard in your life,” 50 Cent explained. “But they can’t write a song to save they life…Em is one of the guys from that platform that made it to that point. [He’s] that strong of a writer. He means more to music culture than people give him credit for. Because Hip Hop culture is a black art form, it’s a black music. When they have a figure or you have someone that’s from a different ethnicity come in and he does it as well, if not better than everybody in it—it loses its color. And that’s why Hip Hop music is now Pop music…You gotta be careful or you’ll get your ass handed to you on a track man. He’ll get to you.”

Watch to the end to see where he takes a quick shot at Officer Ricky for not being about that life!!
You should get a room with Officer Ricky. He’s heavy on your mind, even when it has nothing to do with him.
What do you mean has nothing to do with him? He said his fucking name in the video above.
Officer Ricky is heavy on everything. The scale, the servings, the couch, that nigga is heavy!!
scarface and 50 cent should talk bec their on different wave lengths about hiphop lol
“You see it man, shots go off, POP POP POP POP Rick Ross be like ‘I don’t wanna live this life’, You see it.”
That’s funny. 50 wasn’t about that life either. He was a low level drug dealer. I.E. A dime a dozen.
He still from the streets, he never hand cuffed niggas and locked them up
What the fuck are you talkin’ bout? He was the boss of a crew of drugdealers.
Like being from the streets is a cool or good thing. Dudes from the streets don’t wanna be in the streets. They want to be in penthouses and condo’s. People give far too much credit to “that life”. “That Life” had no retirement plan, no 401K, no benefits, no success model. Just a threat of entry, failure, jail and tombstones. People, wake up and promote something better or you will always get what you have.
^ He wasn’t boss of nothing. Why do you think that? Because he’s the leader of that g-unit bullshit? He was a petty criminal just like every other “gangster” rapper. Sold a little weed, maybe robbed some innocent people. None of these dudes are the big coke, crime bosses you think they are.
again someone talking about something they dont know about smh
even niggas in his hood who hate 50 admit he was about that shit. coke n crack. if your enemies up you on the streets then u know u made a move
lol, u do knw hes the only rapper that got shot 9 times and lived to rap about it, doesn’t get any more street than that, respect.
@The Decatur ATL Boi: Truest words ever said on HHDX. Finally somebody on here speaks the truth ab how it really is in the hood. You can tell who’s really live that life. Or at least been around it enough to kno what it is. Driving thru few times (scared as fuck)& the bullshit these fabricated,bitch ass rappers don’t mean u kno shit ab it. When u really did come from the bottom & u make it as a rapper,and get rich, yea u gonna flaunt the $$ & whips but you appreciate it & ur not talking ab it like its “cool”. Lines like “fuck broke niggas”,”So much doe Ill some new Buggatti’s when Im bored”. That sounds like a spoiled ass fuck who grew up with $$ & two parents the 1’s. Real rapper that make it appreciate every dime & thank God everyday u dont have 2 sell dope any more. _ Not Related 2 50 Cent’s irrelevant career, cant remember how/who but brought it up. Just had to put that out 2some dumbasses who think they kno but r clueless
so in other words ross is a bitch nigga for pretending to be about that life when he grew up good and went to school
Read between the lines. Curtis is still very bitter about not having a career anymore. He’s complimenting Em, but if you read between the lines it’s like he’s saying how can he still sell making music I wouldn’t have made and still be able to sell a mill without even blinking. It eats him alive. And for the record, 50 never went diamond (domestically). He was always changing the number he sold to justify his rising ego.
Fuck this homo ass nigga, Fiddy.
I’d rather suck a dick than listen to any of his shitty ass songs.
thats cause your a homosexual and sucking dicks is what you love to do
you sound dumb go listen to rick ross you fake ass wanksta
50 will sell 200,000 records MAX when he finally drops. 40,000-80,000 first week sales since his last one did just over 100,000 3 years ago. He shouldn’t even be speaking about millions.
50 can sell max double plat after a year, no hip hop artist shall go diamond status
no sh*t sherlock
Ja Rule the only real nigga sellin records
Ja Rule about that life
Ja Rule just sold 3million records this week
Pain Is Love 2 sold so many records it crashed billboard.com
no moron it sold just over 6000 copies LMAO! and that was in over a year on the shelves
i bet you didnt it cop that shit
No, The 6000 is just from my purchases alone, he’s sold more records than eminem
Fiddy’s music is pop but YMCMB is true hiphop.
Wayne is decent but he doesnt have soul like Ja Rule
wayne and ja are bouth fucking homo rappers
“wayne and ja are bouth fucking homo rappers”
You misspelled eminem and Dr dre.
JA RULE >>>>>>>>>>>WAYNE
Wayne>>>>>> Ja Rule.
YMCMB are true pop, 50 is hip-hop.
Ja Rule>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Wayne and Pac combined
50 PEAKED ARTISTICALLY AND CREATIVELY ABOUT 10 YEARS AGO. HE CAN DO SONGS WITH THE MOST POPULAR YOUNG RAPPERS OUT NOW AND IT STILL WONT HELP HIM. 50 IS A GREAT BUSINESSMAN (SLIMEBALL TOO). BUT MUSICALLY, HE IS COMPLETELY DONE. NO MATTER HOW MANY RECORDS SPINS AND DR DRE BEATS HE GETS. HE IS DONE. NOT EVEN BIRDMAN WILLIAMS CAN SAVE HIS CAREER.
#PRAYFORBIRDMAN
Cosign. Eminem could not save 50’s ass form the flopping My Life single. That shows Eminem is on a decline while YMCMB is on a rise.
you see waynes last album sales? you call that a rise? and that lil bitch tyga sold half of what tyler the creator did first week out
Eminem on a decline? HAHAHAHA!! Good joke. Let Em release his new single and you’ll take those words back.
IANAHB2 is a side project. Eminem has struggled with Skylar Grey’s single as well. That’s proof.
i dont think you understand what a side project is
INAHB2 is a full studio album. The Skylar Grey song isn’t even Eminem. That’s not proof. Wait until he release his own single.
50 is spot on. He will never sell like he did, but he also doesnt have to. He has made great business decisions and built his brand, so now he can make music for fun. Too many artists lose sight of the “fun”, “passionate” element of making music, and it shows.
As for his comment on pop, hiphop has gone pop. not in the sense that it sounds like typical pop music, but that it truly is popular music. There are so many genres in hiphop now, which is great. You can be underground, mainstream, in between. So many different lanes are open that enables us as fans to have access to so much music. The only people that complain are hiphop hipsters. People have to accept that hiphop can appeal to everyone. I cant stand waka flocka, gucci, but they have their core audience. I remember in 2001, cash money was super corny, but say that in the south and you may get punched in the mouth. haha. There is tons of great music for everyone.
OF COURSE HELL NEVER HIT PLAT.. NIGGA GON GO DOUBLE FUCKIN WOOD NEXT ALBUM NOONE TRYIN HEAR HIS SHIT NO MORE- HE LOST HIS HUNGER AFTER HIS FIRST ALBUM BLEW UP YOU CAN TELL.
“He’ll go double….fucking….wood”….. I’d laugh, were it not such a poor line…
WASNT FOR YOU TO LAUGH AT ITS THE TRUTH.. NIGGA 50 HASNT BEEN INSPIRED ON A TRACK SINCE GRODT OR THE SOUNDTRACK .
News flash!!!!!
We already knew that. 50 just happen to drop GRODT at a good time before piracy took off. And even with all the bootleg copies that were out, he still sold his ass off.
His music career isn’t over yet but he sees the decline. Betta do more investments, my nigga.
Someone will sell 10 million again. Hip hop is just bored of the same old shit. When someone surprising, refreshing and new comes along, they will sell.
Artists need to stop crying and making excuses. If apple can sell a new version of iphone in ridiculous numbers with only a small handful of changes, than a hip hop artist can still sell 10 million records worldwide.
That being said, 50 will never sell 10 million again
Not in Hip Hop. YOu can see as many different kind of rappers are out there that make music so different from the rest and they won’t hit a 10 million mark
nicca is trying to compare iphones sales to rap albums
itll happen but it wont be in hip hop. Why? because hip hp fans are the least supportive fans out of all the genres. its all in the numbers. Out of all the genres to suffer from bootlegging, hip hop is the most affected. I dont agree with selling out but i see why artists like Nicki and Flo Rida did. When you market your music strictly to the hip hop audience, youll see your numbers go down after a while whereas, for instance Flo Rida, once he went pop hes had hit after hit after hit after hit and has consistent success with a pretty loyal fan base.
Adele did it not too long ago and Susan Boyle did it as well. Will someone sell 10million again, yea and itll probably be a singer. The closest another rapper will get is Eminem.
50’s sole purpose was instigating Ja Rule’s downfall. After Ja fell off for good, he had nothing else to offer.
Ja Rule Didn’t Fall Off He’s Still Selling Millions
no hes selling hundreds, thousands at the most, and not even tens of thousands
yea, now wannabe rappers like macklemore are trying hard to be hiphop.
sad what happened to hiphop 😀
yeah i hate those rapper wanna bees like gucci, 2chainz n chief keef.. fuckin wannabees killin hiphop
no one in hip hop or rnb will because the music is so bad
another great interview from 50
watching his interviews is like watching a normal person speak real shit not like these other guys who come across like cartoon characters putting on a front for the people
watch a 50 interview then watch a rick ross interview
The difference being Ross comes off like a human being. 50 has a motive for every interview he does. He’s always name dropping somebody. Case in point, Eminem, again. Or giving us his take on how the music industry has changed. Here’s a thought Curtis. Talk about your son. Talk about the Knicks. Talk about Banks shoe collection. Anything other than Eminem or music.
lol @ ross being human. that niggas whole life is one big movie role. he been in character since 2005
I kinda feel like 50 is popping shots at Slaughterhouse. (i know they’re labelmates, but still…)
“They come up with the wittiest lines[the] coolest ways to insult a person you ever heard in your life, but they cant write a song to save they life”
naw i think he was talkin about papoose and fabolous
Na 50’s cool with Slaugtherhouse & Fab
At least he’s being honest.
50 is always honest.
dss
50 smarter then ur favorite rapper at least lol, most rappers can’t get out a full sentence and fif is actually articulate…not a fan of his music really but a fan of the guy
actually factually
He mumbles alot.
He lost me when he said Em is a good songwriter. Correction: Em WAS a good songwriter.
50 spot on. You should make music that feels good to you, and let everything else take care of itself. Everyone on this site is so quick to point out flops (which, if you read through some of these damn comments is about 99% of albums released over the last few years) but these dudes pretty much know about what they’re going to sell before they drop the album. It’s not 2002 anymore
some of these rappers are delusional though like when meek mill said he was gonna sell a million first week and french montana expecting to move 200k units first week
I’ll give you that homie…I don’t mind Meek’s music but he was a fool for that one. And French is just retarded, str8 up. He’ll do Tyga numbers
I actually am not a accountant, I gotta come clean. I’m 14 and live in my grandparents house (my mom gave me up cause she was a crack-head and never met my dad). I do this trolling thing because it makes me feel like I matter to SOMEONE at least ! Now that the jokes over, I just want to apologize for being such an troll and all my fake opinions…please don’t be too mad, this site is all I have …
Im not dentaldamboy. What I’ve said describing him actually describes me.
i am dentaldamboy….and seriously, I messed up guys. I played it too long and I’m sorry. I truly am.
Hip Hop is dead…hip pop is alive and well.
itll happen but it wont be in hip hop. Why? because hip hp fans are the least supportive fans out of all the genres. its all in the numbers. Out of all the genres to suffer from bootlegging, hip hop is the most affected. I dont agree with selling out but i see why artists like Nicki and Flo Rida did. When you market your music strictly to the hip hop audience, youll see your numbers go down after a while whereas, for instance Flo Rida, once he went pop hes had hit after hit after hit after hit and has consistent success with a pretty loyal fan base.
Adele did it not too long ago and Susan Boyle did it as well. Will someone sell 10million again, yea and itll probably be a singer. The closest another rapper will get is Eminem
flo rida sells singles but the albums flop. he dont even got 1 gold album, but like 12 plat singles
florida got a loyal tour fanbase. and thats whre he makes his money and knows it. his albums flop harder than flipper on a beach, but his touring makes up for it all.. sure hes fuckin garbagio but he makes sum good club joints
thats true but if you look at how many albums that are shipped then youd understand. I think there was an interview out like 2years ago, ima try and go look for it, that flo rida said the label only ships like 150k of his albums to stores because they already know hes gonna bring in the money with his ringtone and tour money. Which is genius of him and his label to do. Save money from not pressing a shit ton of albums and use that money on promoting his singles. Also remember a lot of movies and sporting events have his singles as their anthems which in turn means he gets paid for that
THAT’S WHY YOU SCARED TO DROP THAT WACK ALBUM…THAT TRACK WITH KENDRICK SOUND LIKE FAGGOT MUSIC!!
that track was hot you just prefer to listen to preschool downsyndrome raps
look at 50 laying out the reason why hes about to go triple cobalt on his next album
em next album might be real rap
he said he wished he never put recover out on “my life”
em could put out a gospel album and go platinum
eminem – 8 mile
could be a album like lose yourself
i pray for this ^
Nigga we all knew that ever since you dropped curtis nigga.
i don’t know why,but it seems like 50’s about to cry
only when he was doing his rick ross impression at the end
Yayo will be there to dry the drops.
eminem could bring the real back
then we get detox
he has no buzz, thts why his album been pushedback further then tyga hairline… undisputed pushback champion
he dont need to put out an album he rich as fuck and still in the news more than your fav rapper
lmaooo funny as fuck
Eminem Recovery:
Worldwide: 10,000,000
US: 4,040,00
CAN: 435,000
i Think hes wrong…
Yes he is wrong! Em now with new album 2013 will pass 13mill no problems 🙂
that rick ross shit was funny at the end ..he a fool.. but he aint lying tho.. he one of the few that keep it real
I watch this whole interview live. I thought they would’ve put it out by now.
bap bap bap bap!!! rick ross diss….
Not that he needed to state that, but Gold is the new platinum theses days….250,000 is considered gold in my book…..regarding hip hop. Its hard to sell a million these days… I know justin Timberlake just did it with ease….BUT PEOPLE CAN’T EVEN FATHOM THE TYPE OF MACHINE THAT IS BEHIND JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE….his shit was WORKED BIG TIME
In other OBVIOUS news the earth is round and the president is black!………
* 1/2
“and still in the news more than your fav rapper”
Be honest with yourself. He’s only in the news if 1.) He’s talking about somebody or 2.) Shows up for no reason to a sporting event and tries to get face time.
still pretty good for someone who hasnt dropped an album in 5 or so years
or an album worth bumpin in 10 years ^
“no hes selling hundreds”
Which is ok since he’s already sold 20 million albums.
if 50 cent sold 6000 copies of his latest album you would be one of the first to mock him and call it a flop but since it’s ja rule its all good
ja sold 30 millions just thought i’d let 50 fans know that. since ya’ll always throw 50 on everything ja does lol
The public has you down packed Quote-Man, you can’t just submit contradictions and think all is good.
point is ja’s last album sold 6000 copies. 50 would off himself if he ever flopped that hard
Tech N9ne the best lyricist alive
no ene can out flow him
Jay Z & Eminem would eat Tech alive. That’s why he works with Twista and Lil Wayne to make sure he doesn’t get upstaged on his own song.
Gay Z has never killed anyone verbally or literally in his life. Fact.
“He was the boss of a crew of drugdealers”
Lol So the top low level dealer had a crew of smaller low level dealers? That’s unbelievably trill.
triller than making 24k a year locking up the drug dealers you pretending to be in your fairytale raps
Touche! lol
how about being really honest. should’ve said “I will never sell 300,000 again”. Or “I will never release a major label album again”.
shut up 50 ja rule is back that’s why your not going to sell shit no more. his street cred is actually real, not that i makes you a good rapper, but ja is a way better lyricist than 50. VVV is more lyrical than get rich or die trying believe meeeeee. 50’s is just catchy that’s it
give it up shits not funny no more. 50’s right
a tennis playing jehova witness who watned to be 2pac has more street cred than the guy who beat him up and took his chain?
ja rule the truth and his cds are clasics nothing but the hits nothing but the hits nothing but the motha fucking hitssssssssssssssssssssss hit after hit i really do believe ja go way more hit records than 50. lol
does ja rule have any hits without a female r&b singer?
this nigga dissed himself. they cant write a song to save they life sounded like U fifty!
He might be on to something. Hip-Hop music hasn’t had the general appeal that it once had some years ago. Jay-Z hasn’t sold over five million copies since 2003. Kanye’s “masterpiece” MBDTF has sold only slightly over a million (since Feb 2012). Eminem fares better with 4 million off his last album Recovery. I just think its the a mix of the internet (not as many people buy albums any more and that rap isn’t as marketable as it once was.
“Hip Hop is Dead”-Nas
They still don’t understand the prophecy.
no sh!t lmao fuQ 13mill he’ll never go gold again ever!!!!!
Hey, HipHopDX… this IS NOT the first time he has said this. He has said it for years now. Wake up. Reaching for a headline. No one will sell that much…except maybe that South Korean guy…lol
follow at noles506
if the rest of it has the energy of we up, it’ll be good.
the funny thing is he’ll still sell more than most of your favourite rappers worldwide other than Eminem. 50 is an international renown superstar, regarless. He got a vault full of hits and is still selling shows and getting interviewed. Its as though ppl in America are lost, Lil wayne? french montana? really? these guys cant complete their ABC’s let alone rap.
That vault contains old hits. His new material is flopping. Stop cheerleading this man and find a new hero to fill the gap in your life.
old hits, new hits does it matter? he still has hits. alot of them. stop hating on him.
his new hits would be hits if they were released by anyone else but they trying to black ball him because he ended too many careers and niggas dont wanna see him win anymore
dude said a vault full of hits LMAO stop it 50 been beggin for a game changer since massacre and cant get it.. im sure if 50 had hella hits he would of dropped one by now instead of the shit hes been droppin
you know how 50 is still popular? whenever he speaks you’ll still get lots of views and 125 comment posts. Legend. Top 10 rapper ever to date.
nope he’s just hated
^^ okaay. he’s rich soo…
Ja Rule had triple his views recently, Ja Rule is the god of rap
Ja Rule just released a gay sex tape through Vivid entitled “Put It In My Ja”.
dre and eminem are the only reason u sold anything and anybody to day different are just plain stupid and have no smarts
Damn, boy, you dumb as hell!
how???? fuck off
its colour not color fucking dumb americans
and yes eminem is the best period OH AND WHITE LOL
**** FUCK YA’LL HATERS****
Get off the internet and study, bitch! Also, I’ll be with your mother in her bedroom so when you see the sock on the door nob don’t come knocking for anything you lil’ shit!

Get off the internet and study, bitch! Also, I’ll be with your mother in her bedroom so when you see the sock on the door nob don’t come knocking for anything you lil’ shit!
you dumb fuck- typical blinded american
He’ll never sell 1 million records again.
but atleast he did it. most of these new rap niggas (and some old) will never be able to say they did it even once
“triller than making 24k a year locking up the drug dealers you pretending to be in your fairytale raps”
As usual your leaving out an important piece of information. Ross was 19. 24k legal money for babysitting society’s filth. Sounds better than standing on a corner every night trying to sell drugs to dope fiends.
sure theres nothing wrong with that but dont go pretending to be something you’re not. ross never sold a gram in his life. never busted a gun. never been to jail. definition of a fraud.
and had ross rapped about that shti first off then ppl might of fucked with him.. but he lied, stole a gangsters name. rapped about everything in life hes never done before..and now were here..
“still pretty good for someone who hasnt dropped an album in 5 or so years”
He was dissed by a scrub sports columnist, and snubbed by a female reporter, all on ESPN. That’s not good. Especially when that scrub columnist ends his sentence by saying Drake is better.
i know you dont follow his career but that female reporter has since done commercials for his energy drink and he fucked her
i think you’re getting 50 cent confused with Wale
^^ Lol. 50 wins AGAIN. go on continue hatin.
Damn you dumb.
whoever typed this quote is dumb as shit.. its wale not 50
flop since 05 son is done
So is your moms..my dick is tired. Tell I said Happy Mother’s Day when you see that bitch again!
Anonymous Too:
So is your moms..my dick is tired. Tell I said Happy Mother’s Day when you see that bitch again!
she said u came in 5 seconds lol
Ross will still never or ever sell more than 50. He should go bk to correctional officing. Lool.
Maybe as far as hip-hop goes, no Artist will ever sell 10mil again but Adele hit the lottery with 21. She is from the UK tho but still to be able to sell like that in today’s music environment is fucking impressive. Her music is pretty good too
respectable people in the world (anyone outside the hiphop world) actually buys albums
selling is dead in HIPHOP bec the fanbase is a bunch of bums who bootleg shit.. this is a rap issue not a music issue
i guess it wouldnt be fair of me without mentioning todays ‘hot’ rap BLOWS as well and its not worth buying..so its 2 issues.
X to the Z Xzibit went platinum.
The Baha Men went platinum and won a Grammy.
but they havent remained relevant in their genre 10 years later. 50 is hip-hop with or without another hit album
My point is that going platinum was different back then
ja rule is freeeeeeeeeeeee. time for some real rap, fuck this buck tooth rabbit lol
Instead you want me to listen to a big nosed mouse? Naw hoe! hahahaha!!!
JA RULE-PRAY FOR THE DAY LOOK IT UP ON YOUTUBE IT WAS ON PAIN IS LOVE TWO…. THE SONG ACTUALLY HAS MEANING AND IS THOUGHFUL UNLIKE THIS DUDES MUSIC JA FREE JA FREEEEEEEEEEE. AND TO ALL YOU THAT SAY JA IS A 2PAC WANT TO BE YOUR CRAZYYY. CAUSE I GUESS NATE DOG, JAY Z, NAS, AND TREACH ARE TWO FOR THE BACKWARDS BANDANNA ALONG WITH EVERY OTHER RAPPER THAT WAS ON TOP 97-2004 WHICH WAS JAY Z, JA RULE, NAS, AND DMX BEST ERA OF RAPPPPPPPPPPPPPP GET YOUR HEAD STRAIGHT YOU LITTLE FUCKS

FBI INFORMANT
who did 50 inform the fbi on who got arrested?
50 know its fact
Anonymous:
who did 50 inform the fbi on who got arrested?
shows us the paperwork
if there was any someone would have pulled it up by now like they did with william roberts correctional photos and files
FBI informing = snitching off the record.
good interview. fif a funny dude. but real talk hes speaking the truth. still waitin for those aftermath releases
It’s obvious 50 cough cough let me clear my through 5—–O cop yeah 50 lol has to do with the reason ja went to jail. He has Feds written all over him, and he lost all his street cred. Nextttttttttt. Just heard that Pray for the day from Ja’s pain is love 2 didn’t hear it before that shit is the truth. Holly shit
Nigga you gay.
nice try. ja got caught slipping and didnt have the paper to make his charges go away and had to pay the price. you cant blame that fuck niggas mistakes on 50 the gawd
throat*
dick stuck in there again? damn!
Eminem : Recovery + 7 Millions Worldwide (2010)
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL Shots go off and Rick Ross be like “I dont wanna live this life”
wow this ja track is touching and deep thank god he is free to make more tracks like this “pray for the day ” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MUndC9JLR2g
I think its so funny when people say 50’s irrelevant he does an interview and its all over hiphop blogs and has hundreds of comments
real talk
He may not be popping musically but he’s still one of the worlds biggest rappers so when he speaks it will always be on blogs
come bk to me when any other rapper has stats like these apart from Jay or Em.
http://api.ning.com/files/Wmplu1XRZrnaIj*9mYvEaIIVJ2sDcR9Mt48rJ2d6iti-ffU-lDP2jIdMsLtelU4Pa36HLjXDXleWI1YFOwdqG-Mb4DUSNNE8/50Cent_10years_Infograph1.jpg
fo real
Real talk I respect 50’s hustle but needs to fix up his record label kidd kidd isn’t gonna make him money, 50 needs his own Meek Mill his own Drake someone who going to be hot and that could actually work in 50’s favour giving him a buzz
did you really compare meek mill to drake? aint no one getting rich off meek mills bum ass
I think he was referring to the fact that Meek has a buzz and is one of the popular names in rap like drake
he had the buzz but he couldnt sell like drake because he put out a weak album that was forgotten a month after its release
Meek made the mistake of putting out better stuff on mixtapes and releasing a garbage album. Literally a couple months after he released his album he let fans know another mixtape was coming. That itself showed even he knew his album was garbage.
Too top it off he tried to get at Cassidy and the kid Cass killed any buzz Meek had left. Once Meeks street buzz got killed his whole rap career went down as well.
even if you dont like him, respect Fif. ones of the greatest rappers of our time. popular artists now drake, nicki still have a long way to get the respect he has in hiphop.
he ain’t got no respect from us.
us = you and your hand
lol 50, ja rule – pain is love 2 sold 11.5mill worldwide
umm… no it didn’t
sold 6000 copies in the usa, probably 8000 worldwide LMAO get a life chump. thats one of the biggest fall offs in the history of rap
You fans can laugh all you want but if you heard the album you would have known that it was some of his best stuff.
that aint sayin much
it wasn’t even that good of an album… his other albums are way better… what are you taling about?
He’s right man, especially about Rick Ross Lol!
you won even sell 10 records curtis
he could put out a blank cd and still sell more than most of these wack niggas
There will be an album that sells 10m. He is not the first and won’t be the last. He flopped b/c he didn’t listen to Em and Dre and tried to cut them out once he got big.. He is a horrible executive producer..
when did he cut them out? Dre and Em both were exec producers on BISD which was his worst selling album that still went gold. if you wanna call that a flop than every rick ross album is a flop
i think what dude means is when 50 became a boss he really diddnt have em and dre mentoring his career like they did when he 1st came out.so 50’s music did suffer because of that.get rich or die trying was em and dre’s standards of music.everything else after that was 50’s standards.and wasen’t as good he cared more about the money.they did executive produce his albums but i think that was only really by title i know 50 and dre wernt even that close the last few years.but yea rick ross albums are flops he blows
50 won’t even go gold again………lol
dont believe me just watch nigga nigga nigga
JA RULE YO
wtf?
“Im making music because I love it and its why Im here”. That’s why 50 the realest nigga in the game cause he make shit from the heart and what he wanna hear, not like these trappin faggots like Gucci who admit they only in it for the money. 50 don’t need the money or to make music n he do it anyway, and fuck you weak ass niggas that think otherwise
I’d punch that ja rule lover faggot that’s always on this site tha fuck out if Id ever see him too.
ja rule made pretty good r&b 50 nem stole his blueprint
and did it better and bigger
Someone will sell 10mil again but it wont be in hip hop. Why? because hip hp fans are the least supportive fans out of all the genres. its all in the numbers. Out of all the genres to suffer from bootlegging, hip hop is the most affected. I dont agree with selling out but i see why artists like Nicki and Flo Rida did. When you market your music strictly to the hip hop audience, youll see your numbers go down after a while whereas, for instance Flo Rida, once he went pop hes had hit after hit after hit after hit and has consistent success with a pretty loyal fan base.
Adele did it not too long ago and Susan Boyle did it as well. Will someone sell 10million again, yea and itll probably be a singer. The closest another rapper will get is Eminem
the thing is flo rida has hits and they are popular songs but he dont sell records
Not to drift off topic, but I would like to remind people to go out and buy French Montana’s new album May 21st. French worked hard and really needs your hard earned money. He has 3 year old boy to feed and a baby mama to take care of. Also he is bringing back that real gritty NY rap that has been gone for so long. French is a man with a vision and he needs your help to make his vision a reality. French’s new album will forever change hip hop, it will have rappers look at themselves and realize that things get deeper than this rap shit (to use the words of the great Rick Ross). French Montana is going to save hip hop, he is that great light at the end of a dark dark tunnel.
great trolling as usual i can troll.
French Montana sucks…I wouldn’t even download his shit for free!
I am sorry to say but no black artist will sell that many records again. Off the top of my head the only one in the last couple of years that sold more than 5 million was Adele.
Hip Hop has gotten to the point where artists give away free music via mixtapes so why would anyone buy an album from a rapper.
50 sold only 8 million in the US. Adele sold 25 million worldwide.
50 fans always talkin bout his OLD album sales from 10yrs ago, but here’s a good question. has 50 dropped an album in the last 5 yrs that is musically BETTER than Teflon Don or Deeper than rap?
Bawse!!!!!!!!
rick ross sucks dude is the hip hop cop…fuck boy
hahahahaha teflon don is a laughing stock, besides that one track with jay z….bought it and the only time i put it in is when im with my friends and we need a good laugh
you didn’t answer the question, did you? All insults aside, 50 doesnt have an album in the last 5 yrs that can fuck with Teflon Don
Bawse!!!!!!!!!
He got throwaway songs and mixtape tracks that shit on everything Ross has ever released. And hes not a fake ass overweight cop.
Ross snitched on someone thats why he crashed his whip into a building drunk with an unregistered gun and didnt even get a ticket.
too bad Game “ja ruled” the SNITCH aka 50
#G UNOT!
But if game did an interview and it was posted here it would get like 24 comments. mostly by you defending his bitch ass and all the bitch ass things he does.
Wasnt game the one trying to get G-Unit back together a few months ago? Did you forget about that one?
i saw this interview like 3 months ago dx step ya game up
only chance 50 has is if he gets drake features cus we all know drake is the face of rap and runs the rap game. Drake is the only one that can sell and make hits drake will go down as the greatest of all time.
Lmao. This dude right here.
Ultimate collaboration – Top 3:
Drake
Rick Ross
Ja Rule
Drake and Ja Rule both had numerous # 1 hits, albums and sold millions and went plat. You cant put Officer Ricky in the same box as them
HAHAHAHAHA!! I know you’re a troll, but Drake is not the face of rap and doesn’t run shit. Drake’s not the only one who can sell and make hits; he will not go down as the greatest of all time, but the worst.
50’s career is OVER! He’s a bitch. My nigga Game destroyed this faggot and he’s still tryin to come back! Nigga don’t nobody wants to hear ur wack ass music so fall the fuck back 50! Ur career is officially over, you fucking faggot! You bitch ass nigga! FUCK YOU!! GGGGGGG-UNOT!!!
You get so mad when people hate on your stripper game but you in here spewing hate for no reason. calling people faggot and shit. thats pretty weak. Especially considering YOUR FAV RAPPER WAS THE SONE TAKING HIS CLOTHES OFF FOR MONEY
Oh noo! His RAP career is over. Boo hoo. Guess he’ll just have to stick with next level shit such as movies, books, audio company, energy drink company, and boxing promotions. Yea more like it. Rap? Na…I’m sure he’s straight. Y’all niggas can have that rap shit. Rap game is weak as fuck now anyway.
This nigga is lame as fuck. Callin todays music pop. This bitch nigga done went pop with that candy shop years ago. This niggas last album went triple wood and now cant even get his shit released. Nigga shoulda stayed in his lane before Ross ethered his ass.
Bawse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
for once, i actually agree with the Rozay fan on this. 50’s music career is over
Suckers
bawse, these niggaz cant hold me back
ross tried to go pop but failed with that bullshit usher record and a bunch of others. id rather fall off after having sold millions and gone multi plat then be a gold selling artist my whole career like officer william roberts
RICK ROSS HAS POLICE CONNECTIONS FROM HIS OLD JOB. WHY DO YOU THINK HE STILL HASNT BEEN CHARGED FOR THAT LOADED UNREGISTERED GUN HE DIDNT USE WHEN HE CRASHED HIS CAR INTO A BUILDING DRUNK AFTER HIS BIRTHDAY PARTY.
HE EVEN GOT GUNPLAY TO SNITCH HOW ELSE YOU GET OFF A ROBBERY AND ASSAULT THATS ON VIDEO
Hey loser, Curtis’ last album went gold, so if that’s a flop, your idol Rozay has been flopping his whole career.
Hipsters are ugly… and stupid
Lil Wayne and Drake can sell 10 million records! swag
No, they can’t.
i need my diaper changed and these pedos keep threatening me on the internet
is this a subliminal? by those pedos do you mean me? i thought we had a genuine homosexual relationship but obviously not you broke my heart youngsta 🙁
Nigga you also made pop music. You did songs with Justin timberlake. So what the fuck you talking about. besides every fan is fed up with your fake beefs to sell records and your so called gangster image. we know you have money. We know you a pimp. we know you have bitches. Your subject matter is always the same and boring. And you had just 1 dope album and fell off
U a Fuckbuoy
whats a fuckbuoy?
“every fan is fed up with your fake beefs to sell records and your so called gangster image.”
i love it when 1 person tries to speak for every single fan

nobody cares retard
Nigga please. Ja Rule will get help from every mainstream artist he can find to make his shit hot. Ja Rule ft. Tyga, ft. The Game, ft. Frenchy Montana, ft. Lil Wayne, ft. Nicki Minaj, ft. Rick ross, ft. Meek Mill, ft. 2 chainz. All on one album. For Ja Rule.
ja rule killed his career.
ja rule is a faggot just like u
50 will always be that nigga.I dont care if he gonn sell any 10mil records again,probably he wont sell even 2millions again.But as far as hes sayin he got passion for the music im always gonn fuck with that,he dont really care if u like him or not anymore.Niggas say 50 went pop but they damn wrong,he could write a club/rnb song but in the meanwhile he would drop a street mixtape to please his loyal fans.Thats the difference with other rappers who lookin for mainstream success,they forget they old fans.50 never did.
And of course he never went that gay swag thing that erbody else does,he stay that nigga,i dont find anything wrong with releasin some club hits,i cant understand u haters
50 is a irrelevant nigga. nigga is to old and lame with his boring flow and saME subject matter
agreed
He’s so irrelevant you decided you needed to look and comment on a post about him. You making that comment is a contradiction in itself
he basically the same age as 2chainz, ross, a lot of these rappers. its not an age thing
So irrelavent you took time out of your life to click on a 50 cent article and comment on it LOOL
this monkey is a fucking flop NEXT
man watch the end. hahha ricky rozay
yes miss have you seen g unit the kids with the skateboard and back pack oh their at the game store playing t2 ok thanks
eminem only one who could sell close to 13m these days
should have never messed with Game fool…Game destroyed your career homie
meanwhile game album flopped and been forgotten about so hes on to a new mixtape 4 months later
game last 2 albums went gold? NOOOOOOOOOO
Lol Game is a stripper. Fuck that fake ass butterfly tattoo wearing homo.
He sees that Hip Hop is going down the same path Rock & Roll did. Both were once music for the people. Both were grabbed by corporation. Now Hip Hop is being mainstreamed & watered down as rock was. There will still be acts that stay true & stick to making music after the popularity of the genre has declined & it’s no longer pop but another genre will have to take that place that Hip Hop once had.
uhuhuuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuuh
Ja rule accepts this challenge his new album aint goin platinum it’s goin double uranium
ja Rulism at its finest.
he’ll never sell 500k records again
a lot of rappers either and never have
so what. how many records you sold?
CURTIS JACKSON IS SO RETARDED,LOOOL. I LOVE THE WAY HE GETS ASKED A QUESTION & TRIES TO GIVE A RESPONSE LIKE HE IS SMART.HE JUST STUTTERS A BUNCH OF INCOHERENT WORDS WITH THAT SMURK SMILE. STUPID FOOL
And if he walked up to you right now you probably look like that other white nerd kid he ran up on and would cop a plea on how “it’s the internet bro”. foh
He actually says alot of thoughtful things, the problem is he talks like an executive, if you work in the corporate world you deal with people like this all day.
So when Jay does a song with Justin, it’s a smooth R&B song and don’t hate on the white dude. But when 50 already did a song, that was successful, it’s a pop song, like 50 collaborated with N’SYNC.
Bunch of hypocrites I tell you………..
then you got kanye, big sean, busta rhymes, drake, raekwon and ludacris all doing songs with justin fucking bieber,
bunch of bums in here.
uve no clue of hiphop and now shut up all!
Rick ross will never go platinum again
he never went platinum at all
you gotta love people like this anonymous faggot who has literally responded to every comment probably on this whole fucking site damn dude get a life stop trying to tell us about the rap game fool get some sun your white as fuck
you realize you’re an ‘anonymous faggot’ too right?
its not just one person for your information smart guy
lol what a retard
What a lot of people don’t realize that is the mainstream aspect of music. Hip-hop is still here, but as underground hip-hop, which is where it should be.
a lot of people forget that they are not called rappers, they are called Mc’s……..
50 CENT IS WAITING FOR THE RIGHT MOMENT TO RELEASE “STREET KING IMMORTAL”…. ONCE HIS DOPE IS OUT …. 50 CENT WILL BE IN TOP OF THE GAME….
The right time being when, before the end of the world comes?
Mc’s: Nas, A$AP Rocky, Kendrick Lamar, Joey Bada$$, Action Bronson, Drake, 50 Cent, Eminem, Jay-Z, Method Man, Talib Kweli, Kanye West, Scarface, Wale, etc.
Rappers: Tyga, Lil Wayne, Rick Ross, Meek Mill, Nicky Minaj, Birdman, Gucci Mane, Trinidad James, etc.
There’s a difference between a rapper and an MC.
COOL OPINION BRO
Where you at?, c’mon where you at?
This is the difference between emceein’ and rap
Rappers spit rhymes that are mostly illegal
Emcees spit rhymes to uplift their people
Peace, Love, Unity, havin’ fun
These are the lyrics of KRS-One..
when you graduate from high school 2014?
emcee’s: Rakim, Ice Cube, Scarface, Nas, Ghostface Killah, Tupac, Sean Price, i can go on for days..
rapper: waka, soulja boy, 50 cent, lil wayne, rick ross, tyga, oj da juice, tony yayo, trinadad james, 2 chainz, mack miller, mgk etc
drake a rapper … if anything he r&b
bec hiphoppers are bums who bootleg shit. plus the music now is fuckin wack, why would ppl waste their money on BS keef albums. noone worth buyin is pushed except kendrick lamar (who i copped)
other genres sell music bec their fans arent broke bums, who bootleg shit…simple.
u bought maddcity aha
how u like that drake song
that’s why people like Macklemore sell thousands of albums…because he’s marketing to people who buy music.
goofballs acting like macklemore found the cure for cancer, loL
50 cent has the truest intentions behind his comments of Eminem. 🙂
pop music isnt true
I ain’t even gon’ front, when 50 came out, shit was on my ipod like everyone else, I also had a lil love for the white boy. All of a sudden, BISD, then relapse, and recovery, oh, and Game disappeared after LAX. It’s like all of a sudden those major factors there contributed to the FUCKUP that is hiphop/rap today. Nobody can lie, Game, 50, and Em, fucking bumping shit in 06 07 even a lil in 09, they ran rap, then they ALL Fucked up. Stat quo, bobby creek, cashis, bishop lamont, obie, talented, TALENTED artists that would have kept hiphop high out of the reach from “kids” but you sAW how that turded out, eminem went FAGGOT, so did dre, 50 did too, now he wanna go back, ain’t happening, fuck faggot game too. deuces.
WEST SIIIIIIDE
this is a quote from 50 years ago: “I’m gonna take over the game by the time they get tired of me ill be sitting on $100 million.”. Done. And he did it in just 6/7yrs. Instead of hatin. Be inspired like he is.
Money without respect is useless.
Outkast – ATLiens
Chino XL – Take It Back
trek life – ready to live
pop
I got respect for 50 and I agree with him. Rap music has gone downhill dramatically. The first time it was in 06, then in 2011……too many nontalented mufukas runnin the game. DO i really need to name names? And EMinem is a top 5 best rapper ever. Check his resume

Fif been beat up, stabbed, shot up, sold out Prime and snitched on Chris and Irv. He has yet to have done anything to anybody outside of make diss tracks but he his the realist nigga out… sorry but I can’t buy that. I respect his hustle but the path he chose to get where he is deserves no respect. Yea he has a gazillion dollars and gained enough power to shut people out of the music industry. People should at least admit he got smashed on the streets. Again… who has he shot or stabbed???
” He has yet to have done anything to anybody outside of make diss tracks”
ask ja rule and gunplay about that. he took both they chains
“ask ja rule and gunplay about that”
LOL the 2 weakest niggaz in the game, my grandmammy would take both they chains.
“Homo shot me, three weeks later he got shot down”
Read between the lines nigga.
^^ Homo??? LMAO
^^^yes, you retard. he a called homicide, and for hort they called him homo
Not to drift off topic, but I would like to remind people to go out and buy French Montana’s new album May 21st. French worked hard and really needs your hard earned money. He has 3 year old boy to feed and a baby mama to take care of. Also he is bringing back that real gritty NY rap that has been gone for so long. French is a man with a vision and he needs your help to make his vision a reality. French’s new album will forever change hip hop, it will have rappers look at themselves and realize that things get deeper than this rap shit (to use the words of the great Rick Ross). French Montana is going to save hip hop, he is that great light at the end of a dark dark tunnel…
you already said that punk. no one cares you not funny but its good to see someone mocking french montana
Anybody need they dicks sucked????
GIVE ME A CHANCE
Youtube is all about finding new artist, & though I been rapping for a while im still consider a new artist. I just want my music heard thats all, im not looking for no record deal, getting famous ‘r anything like that.! so please just spare a few sec. to check me out, & if you like what you heard please SUBSCRIBE so ill know you actually listen & support
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PzBh55tD_eg
No shit his wack ass won’t sell 13 million. Garbage ass nicca.
who the hell is buying his shit?!!
Fif is right again
Im tellin ya for a guy who was grimey and shit at the start, hes truly become a good ambassador for hip hop
Before Em , we all thought hip hop and rap was the stuff ghetto people did
Em brought that shit into the mainstream… into middle America and the world
Em was as ghetto and grimey as they come. All it took for Fitty was a million dollar investment deal with vitamin water and poof! he wasn’t so grimey anymore.
50 still grimey as ever. you can take him out the hood but you cant take the hood out of 50.
the guy had french montana cancel his album listening party at interscope cause he was in the building lookin for him, went bowling with gunplays chain then put it on an 8 year old kid in his video. tell me that aint grimey
Seriously……..anybody need they dicks sucked????????????
I definitely do
fif cant even sell platinum records, maybe gold if he’s lucky
who else can apart from drake, jay, eminem, and maybe kanye and wayne
Kendrick Lamar, Macklemore, The Roots just had an album go platinum, Adele, Taylor Swift, Justin Timberlake, Biebs…
that roots album came out in 1999 and just went plat in 2013. great example. 14 years in the making for their 1st platinum album so it dont really count. and i was referring to rappers.
That’s very big of you to admit, Fitty. You are a very humble man.
Humble, but let’s be honest, I’ll be surprised if the rest of the albums he sell in his career even add up to one million.
cmon man. when he drops that greatest hits in a few years that shit is gonna fly off the shelves
“my grandmammy would take both they chains”
Ja Rule would put your grandmammy in a headlock until her pacemaker went out.
50 Cent is so irrelavent that some of you took time out of your own life to sit on a hiphop site read what he has to say and comment to call him “Irrelavent” clearly he can’t be that irrelavent if he has your attention
Exactly
LOOOL Fact
50 has had his time the first cd get rich or die trying classic the second cd sold only because the public was looking for that same type gangsta club bangers and 50 gave us his Ja Rule type sing rap style , its over 50 you not that hungery rapper and you not gangsta you coperate now , Stop hating on everybody thats hot i look at rap as entertainment and Rozay is blazing hot everything he touch! Miami stand up
massacre is full of classic songs
@anon, like what? candy shop? LOL
ski mask way, position of power, baltimore love thing
y’all niggas are idiots if you think massacre was whack…go listen a gain and tell what album in the lat 5 years is better than massacre
I agree. The Massacre was a dope ass album, faggots are always gonna hate. Of course it’s gonna have some commercial ass songs on there, just like every other single album does you fucking morons!
I wanna bust in Eminem’s ass.
Gay.
he will never sell 500,000 thousand again he is a bum
a bum worth over a 100 million
he independent and has sold almost 120k
When I red this Headline all i could say is” Yo fifty, no shit sherlock”!!!!!!!
Ya acting like any rapper will sell that much anymore… LMAO. Not with you bum ass leaches always stealing music!
Y’all are silly if you think 50 stole Ja’s style of singing on the track. You don’t know much about 50 before Get Rich or Die Trying. The Power of the Dollar, his first album was full of hooks that was in that same fashion before Ja really got on.
Nobody was listening to 50 back then.
Anyone talking ’bout my new shit? No? Fuck outta here.
Of course he wouldn’t sell that much. And that’s great that he would admit that because NOBODY will sell that much again. 50’s still the shit, and I wish he would drop his album.
Honestly nobody is going to be selling albums like that in hiphop ever again. Especially in the gangster rap genre. This is because everyone is all of the would be buyers are busy stealing everything that comes out. The really sad part is that now that everyone wants music for free, these artists keep making mixtapes, giving away music,in hopes to stay relevant and hope to hell it increases sales for them later down the road.
The fans are what is killing hiphop, not the artists.
yah no 1 in hip hop will eell over 10 million copies of a album ever again
