50 Cent is pop gangsta for white kids. There are a lot of them with 16 bucks in their pocket or mommy and daddy's charge card.

He's MC Hammer 15 years later; it shows how the culture has changed, not just the music...

I think Lloyd is better on his mixtapes. Heard his new one won't disappoint either. With that said though I only like Buck & Banks. I used to like 50 when he was on his Power of the Dollar/Guess Who's Back vibe, but after GRODT he fell off. Money got to old boys head, and now all he raps about is the same old tired ***** everyone else is. Mobb Deep's new ***** sucked... Olivia looks like a man... Yayo is garbage.. I wont even comment on Mase... Spider Loc is a joke... I can't really hate on 50's hustle though. That guy built an empire with that G-Unit **** so more power to him. I just dont like how every album they release lately sounds the same. The Mobb Deep album should have NEVER had that many G-Unit guest spots. You would have thought it was a G-Unit album "featuring Mobb Deep" if you didnt know what you were listening to. With that said though I dont see the Unit falling off the commercial bandwagon anytime soon.

agree with the commercial comment; I compared 50 to MC Hammer, but I guess that's an outdated comparison. It's now better to compare him to 1999 or so Master P...

I dont think Tony Yayo or Mobb Deep's albums have yet to crack a mil. I could be wrong though.

Yayo's is stuck at around 600,000

Mobb is about 250,000 right now. They will probably be gold by end of the Summer though.

Yeah, 50 is basically the only one in that camp that sells. Yayo's album and Deep's album did and will not go platinum. So that throws the 'anything I touch goes platinum' argument out the window.

That being said, Power of the Dollar & Guess Who's Back is THEE ****!!

Banks and Buck both went platinum, also when The Game was with them. His **** blew up and sold a ton.

yeah but half of G-Unit right now will not sell Platinum probably ever again. That includes Yayo, Olivia, Spider Loc, Hot Rod, MOP, Mobb Deep, & Lil Eazy, if he decides to join the G-Unit camp.

Banks' next album might be decent and Buck might come out with a couple decent songs but I'm not expecting anything great from those two...

olivia got a man face at times. i dunno if it's her make up or what. but she don't look right a lot of times. but that's just my opinion.

banks is prolly the best they got on that label. i would've said Prodigy (just for one liners), but Club Deep ain't got it right nowadays.
