No grodt was amazing from a music standpoint ... from a business standpoint it had hit single appeal to a wide vareity .. club song, wanksta, track for the ladies... but on the music side of things 50 took dres beats and laid classic song after classic song
Everyone always points out the fat kid love cake line as the flaw but you have to remember he was speaking to a female .. females aren't males when it comes to smilies and metaphors they don't usually give a shit about complex lyrics .. that song actually had 21 questions in it.. kind of creative plus that track and the shirtless cd cover helped him appeal to that audience
Its a rather genius cd ... its not easy to drop 3 single that charts high that appeal to 3 different audiences... then those audiences expands their taste
But the white meat of the cd the non singles are amazing .. gritty ... every song every topic every lyric matches the mood of the beat and that's because of dre because the massacre was the the same way then a after fifty started making his own decisions and a lot of them weren't right
Guess who's back is just street... fifty was angry and that's when he's at his best lyrically ... front to back those 3 cds I named are classics for their music ... but get rich or die trying made dudes either step their game up or end their mainstream career
Plus their are countless mixtapes he dropped that blew a lot of albums out of the water in that time frame
50 was good when he wanted to be an artist ... I think he's head got to big to fit through aftermaths door and that has been his musical downfall
