How can 50 Cent save his career at this point?

[badgyal]

After burning bridges in the industry (fukk jimmy iovine), beefing with many artists not affiliated with interscope, losing sales to kanye, losing the rap battle to rick ross and after having 2 failed singles, what does 50 Cent have to do to save his career?


IMO i think he needs to bury the beefs and reunite with the Game. The fans will go crazy. Imagine if he reunited with the Game and collaborated with ppl like Kanye and Wayne

Things are not looking good for Fifty and G-unit at this point. Didn't Tony Banks get dropped?

I'm not the only one that agrees that Ross beat 50. The crew from Big Boys Neighborhood and Charlemagne all agreed that Ross is killing 50 musically.

Ppl in the south don't care about that you know. They still love Rick Ross music. Seriously most ppl i interact with don't even care about Ross Baby-Mama's or pimpin curly.

[ag360]

Ross did not win he needed 50 just for the buzz he has now.

[PrayIVReign365]

I'm not the only one that agrees that Ross beat 50. The crew from Big Boys Neighborhood and Charlemagne all agreed that Ross is killing 50 musically.
lol who the hell is Big Boys neighborhood. A lot of people think Ross is killing 50 musically but in the beef he's not winning. He actually didn't hurt anyone. Like 50s career was already over before Ross.


And @ the other guy but Game didn't affect 50 cuz his album still sold. His album sales just got worse but people think he killed him

[pop203]

Ppl in the south don't care about that you know. They still love Rick Ross music. Seriously most ppl i interact with don't even care about Ross Baby-Mama's or pimpin curly.

who do you interact with? you post 50 times a day on SOHH alone. :)

[HarlemAL82]

Got dam b1tch. That's all you know is 50 cent/ rick Ross and EM.

[Incubus]

Apologize to Cam for talking sh1t about Koch/Diplomat Records.

[PrayIVReign365]

Ppl in the south don't care about that you know. They still love Rick Ross music. Seriously most ppl i int with don't even care about Ross Baby-Mama's or pimpin curly.people I talk to don't care for Ross calling 50 a monkey and Curly. Or whatever his disses are


If he won the beef people would jumping head over heels to buy DTR. It wouldn't have sold like his previous effects

[badgyal]

who do you interact with? you post 50 times a day on SOHH alone. :)
You starting this up again? 2 nights ago i was in a studio until 3 am posting on my blackberry. All you have to do is reply 8-10 times on 4 or 5 threads a day. Really is that hard? Learn to multitask :)

i'm just messin wit you, no reason to defend yaself like that. still though, ross lost.

[badgyal]

Thats too. That would be good for a "NY Unity" type of thing. 50 got a long list of beefs. I'm pretty sure he regrets it now.

[badgyal]

i'm just messin wit you, no reason to defend yaself like that. still though, ross lost.
Musically speaking? Hell no! Through other stuff? Yup.

What do you think he needs to do to stay relevant with BISD? what can "save" him?

[Incubus]

Thats too. That would be good for a "NY Unity" type of thing. 50 got a long list of beefs. I'm pretty sure he regrets it now.

Yeah he never wanted to beef with Dipset but Cam kinda pushed him into it :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

[rellz]

50 needs to collaborate more with rappers in NY, outside his camp... jada, jigga, fab, maino, dmx, probably bring more unity in NY.... do something positive.... but that wont happen.... biggie wouldnt of liked dude "**** that beef sh*t, that sh*t is played out"

Thas why I dont understand when people say 50 is smart, he's really not. He's a hustler, but his arrogance outshined his brilliance. That was obvious when he dissed jada, first bad move.... then going up against kanye.... then all the singles with the same formula, club track/sexual track/and a diss record.... then this pimpin curly sh*t exposed a side of 50 that was sad and desperete....

maybe it's because he has so many yes men and d/r in his circle... when i listen to him on Shade 45, whoo kid and all those other d/r gassing him up to fail.... he can never raise again... em is done too(but he'll still sell somehting)... dre's beats are dookie... it's a wrap

[Stan Spit]

make better music and stop overdoin it on the internet video's... people getting bored, curly more like a blogger these days... over exposure

[PrayIVReign365]

lol who the hell is Big Boys neighborhood. A lot of people think Ross is killing 50 musically but in the beef he's not winning. He actually didn't hurt anyone. Like 50s career was already over before Ross.
And @ the other guy but Game didn't affect 50 cuz his album still sold. His album sales just got worse but people think he killed him

[Niko_86]

50 dont have to make a record ever again in his life & he will still be richer than any rapper

50 needs to stay quiet, go on holiday or something , make people miss him then make a hit record & he will be on top again

[pop203]

what can "save" him?

nothing, he just needs to focus on making this album his best one yet. he'll never be "the old 50" because he's 6 years in, we been lookin at this n!gga for 6 years, rap fans like fresh faces. i aint think the n!gga was gonna stay killin sh!t for even 2-3 years to be honest, i thought people would have been got tired of him. just make this album ill, f*ck everything else. he's still 50 Cent, that alone will get him his 300,000-400,000+ first week sales guaranteed, the quality of the music will determine if it stays sellin or if it fades away.

I completely agree. Thats what got him into trouble. He got extremely arrogant after his success on GRODT. He started felling like he was the Rap God or something. Anyone that beefed with someone he didn't like, he went at them. Thats were his problems started.

y'all crack me up, 50 has had the most successful rap career in the history of hip hop, better than Biggie,2pac,eminem,Jay-z,Nas etc & y'all acting like he is afailure, you must be drunk of that haterade

[badgyal]

Your right, but artists like Jay, Nas, TI, Kanye, Jeezy, and lil wayne all find ways to appeal to their core audience, mainstream, and have somewhat commercial success. Like 50, all of these artist had a pretty strong debut album (except maybe TI)

[Chuckie]

no for real, he needs to ride off of dre's detox success

[badgyal]

y'all crack me up, 50 has had the most successful rap career in the history of hip hop, better than Biggie,2pac,eminem,Jay-z,Nas etc

Are you referring to sales? Just curious, your in Europe right? 50 has a really strong fanbase overseas...

[Mandizi]

lol@Tony Banks

damn

:cape: sold 10 mil still not in the 10 best :cape:

[Niko_86]

@ the end of the day, its all about sales, even 2pac in that house of blues concert he was bragging that he sold more than Biggie, ''all eyez on me'' sold more than ''ready to die''

you haters disgust me :ugh:

[badgyal]

:cape: sold 10 mil still not in the 10 best :cape:

I agree sales does not = quality.

Niko86 are you in Europe?

[thoughtcriminology]

make good music, that isnt the same pattern and the same sound


period point blank

^^^ This. If he just shut the fukk up and make quality music he wouldn't have to worry about saving his career.

[dontrustogs]

Rick Ross needs to be shot dead, wounded in a drive-by or get beaten up worse than Rhiahnna. Better yet 50 needs to slap him up if they bump into eachother.

Seriously even though Ross was exposed as a cop, 50 was exposed as just an act. I'm a 50 fan too, but all that gangsta tough guy stuff I was digging when he first came out is changed. Ja Rule and Irv still walking around breathing... frukk that... he wants to be popping on the charts again and sell like he used too... blood needs to be spilled.

[Niko_86]

:cape: sold 10 mil still not in the 10 best :cape:

being in some hip hop fan's top ten list wont pay your bills or get you the nice ride or have you living in a mansion or have you dating a hollywood b!tch, its all about sales

that lil n!gga Nas is in everyones top 5 list but he close to being broke

[West Coast Real Gs]

you are a fuucking idiot if you think 50 cent has out sold a lot of rappers..

really ? outsold pac ? You a fuucking clown

Nah i think 50 DEEPLY cares about where he stands in rap. He has a huge ego, otherwise he would have retired already.

who's the tramp in your sig?

[Niko_86]

really ? outsold pac ? You a fuucking clown

when did I say 50 had outsold Pac???? I said 50 had the most successful career out of all rappers, Pac never got to enjoy his money, he was robbed blind by Suge Knight while he was alive & died with only $300,000 inthe bank

2pac also used to brag about sales just like how 50 does, but none of y'all wil admit it

[fukkyalifestyle]

threadstarter is a guy who created an alias to be a girl. how can you save your life at this point? you pathetic most studios i been in in new york you dont get service. people like you ruined this board.

[HallOw]

Drop a CD with EM.

[GOD420]

Its too late for unity now because he burned most of his bridges leaving a lot of people with a bad taste in their mouth.

He already chose his path deciding that rather than learning from the hardships he endured in the industry and turning the other cheek (ie moving on) he wanted to instead lash out at the industry.

While this might have worked in the short term isolation, unnecessary aggressiveness and antagonism clearly does not help in the long term.

He may have thought that he would be on top (hot) forever or that what goes around does not come around or that putting out negative energy would not have an effect down the road but those are lessons to be learnt through experience sometimes.

He made his decisions so he has to live with them

Add that to the fact that he is not as hot as before means that less established artists dont even have a reason to mess with him anymore because it wont benefit them.

He cant get a release date for himself far less Tony Banks so riding his coat tails to benefit from his buzz at this point would be useless (Jimmy/Joshua/Remy etc all came out empty handed)

I dont think that 50 has enough humility to do collaborations outside of his camp (and pop artists) so Interscope needs to holler at some writing pool ninjas to give 50 a hand and get dude a release date this point.

50 helped Game and Dre and Em cant seem to help 50 right now so they need to consider all of the options available

[Sunzoo aka LC]

Nah i think 50 DEEPLY cares about where he stands in rap. He has a huge ego, otherwise he would have retired already.

yea....retire with 2 albums on his contract...
