With the public departure of The Game and Young Buck, 50 Cent and G-Unit have kept things relatively minimal with regard to expansion in recent years.
Now, 50 Cent has taken a step back towards being proactive, announcing the development of a new subsidiary label, G Note Records.
The label’s flagship artist will be Hot Rod, a rapper who was signed to G-Unit in 2006. “@officialhotrod is the first artist of G NOTE he gonna do his numbers watch,” tweeted 50 Cent (@50Cent).
The Arizona rapper’s style, which in 2006 was more in line with G-Unit’s at the time, is now more dance-pop now. His lead single, “Dance With Me,” is on iTunes.
Did anyone notice 50’s ring looks like the Nazi Swastika. I know its not, just funny how it looks just like it.
P.S. Hot Rod sucks ass 50, you gotta do better than that.
Cant Blame him, nobody buys street oriented Hip Hop anymore so why make it, from a buisness perspective??
50 always sucked to me, but realistically speaking, how many albums come out that get praised to no end on sites like this, come out and sell like 2,000 copies in their first week, Like Canibus for example, earlier this year he dropped that Melatonin Majik Project. Dissed Eminem, the Youtube clip of the Em diss had 100,000 views and it didnt even break the Billboard 200….
Internet Hip Hop Fans = Worthless
Dance Pop Fans = Buy shit
1 + 1 = 2
Exactly, couldn’t agree more.
i disagree, i think you have to blame labels for basing business around “clicks”
and “views”. there’s a huge difference between me being curious and casually clicking something for entertainment (cuz it’s free) and me dishing out my hard earn dollars over the first thing that catches my attention on the net.
why do you think solja boy projects get greenlighted. juz cuz somebody runs around showing their ass on the internet doesn’t mean i’m least bit interested in them musically or even in what other thing they have to sell.
Sure dance pop music sells but the truth is ever since “in da club” did well fif been trying to make inroads into pop music especially highlighted by candy shop , it dont matter what label under 50, hot rod is under really or anybody else signed to that label for that matter.
What does matter is that 50 is simply not very good and making pop or crossover music or setting the direction for that kind of thing , if he doesn’t have a better team of “music” professionals working with his artists to make them successful , g-note records will fade into complete obscurity before the first project is presented.
“taken a step back towards being proactive”?…
Now that’s Sum Goooood Anglish!!!!
oh cmon, the G-UNOTe joke is just too easy to make now
who cares. please retire 50 with your bullshit lyrics
you care, quit lying to yourself
G-Note sounds like a broke ass Young Money!!!
50 be biting & copying!!!
Terra Firma Head May Hand Over Control of Company to Citibank by Christmas
December 13, 2010
Is the Guy Hands era at EMI Music about to come to an end?
Various press reports indicate that the Terra Firma boss has been telling his private equity backers that he may be forced to hand over the business to Citigroup after losing a nasty court battle against the bank, and his former pal David Wormsley, in N.Y. District Court in Oct. Insiders say the transfer could come before the end of the year.
A Terra Firma source insisted the company has not yet made any decision on EMI’s future and is still mulling its options.
One of its options includes Hands walking away from the music group he paid a staggering $6.7 billion to acquire back in 2007 despite the crash of financial lending markets at the time.
Hands had already persuaded investors to throw an additional $156 million into EMI to keep it from defaulting on the roughly $5 billion loan he took out from Citi to buy the company.
Several Terra Firma investors have already told Hands they won’t be throwing good money after bad at this point.
Terra Firma faces another debt deadline in March, when Citi is likely to demand it inject more money into EMI to make good on the terms of its loan.
What Citigroup have in mind for EMI Music is anybody’s guess, though indications are they would split up the record label and music publishing divisions and sell them both off individually, with Warner Music Group and BMG Rights Management two likely buyers.
Tl;dr
When will the loyal Banks and Yoyo sign?????

G-Note Records? Okay, what the fuck happened to G-Unit Records then? Is 50 scratching it all off and starting all over again? Sorry but don’t think this G-Note Records shit is gonna last…He should’ve stuck with worrying about the success of G-Unit records first and signing Beanie Sigel and other artists as well and then create G-Note records because G-Unit Records has not shown any form of major success in recent years…Lloyd Banks flopped with Hunger For More 2 under G-Unit Records and now is sort of a bad time to create a 2nd record label and call it G-Note Records and expect it to take off real fast when G-Unit Records still hasn’t progressed successfully at a high dominant level…Sorry but 50 is doing too much all in one shot and he’s been pushing too many hustles lately which could throw him off a bit if he keeps it up…He can only focus on so many things…Fif needs to slow down and stop constantly worrying about money so damn much…The money will come Fif just slow up your grind some…
so Game creates a susidiary record label to Black Wall Street and a week later this faggot does the same thing. 50 wishes he was Game, but he’s actually just a fag.
ima real dude n i fucks with fifty but dam y aint he signing big time artists n making g unit into a movement again

Hampton Roads Pc Repair
I TOLD YOU 50 WOULD TRY A NAME CHANGE!! I SAID THAT SHIT MOUTHS AGO AND HE DID IT!!!
This dude 50 signs one guy to his new label and you all are already talking shit like you know what the fuck is gonna happen…all of you who are still talking about G-Unit are wasting your time…the whole reason and purpose of 50 creating a whole new label was to refresh things and start over..G-Unit has been dead and obviously 50 agreed on that…so stop talking about the past. Yall can hate on this new G Note Label if you want 2…but if 50 ends up signing the next Tupac or some shit…or a bunch of new talented unsigned artist who we dont even know about yet then you all won’t be bitching then.
Hot Rod is wack. G Note = Fail
aight where do i begin…
1) 50 is a complete failure at hiphop. the g-unit brand is dead if not dyin.
ooh, look across the lane jay-z has just started a label with a bunch alternative/pop shit and he’s already getting mad props, how do i stay relevant?
oh i know i’ll start a pop too, yay.
2) isn’t hot rod the same bitch nigga 50 smacked up on stage that one time? you got’s to be a real bitch to let a nigga smack you and you still workin for him.
50 your music career is done man, play the behind the scenes shit. produce, be a entrepreneur whatever just stay out of the spotlight.
why did 50 smack hot rod?? this is news to me
complete failure? where were you the last 10 years?
haha yea, i was never a huge fan of 50 when it came to music but to say he was a huge failure in hip hop is the most ignorant shit i ever heard, and yea 50 smacked that hotrod dude for fuckin up his lines on stage.
Are u serious 50 and Hot gayrod!!!! I had couple of mixtapes of Hot Rod when he was with G-Unit and they were decent. Now I just listened to that crap pop auto tune bullshit on Itunes It’s horrible how does this dude change his whole style up like that dude sounds gay as hell making gay people music. OMG I still can’t believe it haha it has to be some kind of a joke. Props to Lloyd Bank$ on a solid album! HFM2 is one of the BEST albums for 2K10. 50 & Hot Gayrod needs to take notes from Bank$
He didn’t… This post is incorrect and possiblt delusional….
yo 50 sign me. i grab the pad and the pen like crack lighter and stem, the addict’s at it again upon the dose im a drug or medicine, Im a ten or better then. in the begining it was for the ends ive been countin my bens hopin for a benz, wayne’s style is like his paper it’s spent, my style’s second nature i was born to win. I stay sharp on the mic like a blade for a swordsman, Im nice i’ll get ya high fore i kill only cuz endorphins, their weed got more seeds then the octomom, careful with that flame cuz my shit’s the bomb.
p.s. im better then eminem, fuck young money
jiggas a mason
jbird bitch
Haha, G-Note? I’m guessing that stands for Gay Note. 50 Cent sucks. Irrelevant nigga. Listen to Gucci Mane. That nigga is crazy sick. His flow is amazing.
It’s Gucci Time!
I hope this is sarcasm…
And through it all, 50 still finds a way to make money. Unbelievable.
I TOLD YALL 50 WOULD TRY A NAME CHANGE!!
I SAID THAT SHIT MOUTHS AGO AND HE DID IT!!!
THIS IS JUST SAD!!!!
I TOLD YALL 50 WOULD TRY A NAME CHANGE!!

NIGGGA PLEASE, HOT ROD had a song with MARY J. BLIGE and could not get a buzz.
really, couldnt have had a better set up and dude didnt even get an album out of it, lol
50 must just use music for tax write off purposes at this point
I think this is just a joke/shot at hot rod..Hot rod is the dude 50 cent told to gtfo off the stage during a performance cuz he didnt deliver..aint it?
Fuck this monkey. The bawse already destroyed this nigga’s career. where the fuck the unit at? nigga 50 need to be out there promoting HFM2 since the shit flopped so damn hard. fuck these niggas, the unit is done.
Bawse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ross is a bitch and he lost that shit hard. however, hot rod sounds like he sold out!
