yea for real, how many beats did Kanye make for Jay Z through out Jay Z's whole career. even though 50 is quite the unimpressive MC, he is still hip hop, and I do think 50 cent has a handful of songs that are worth listening to.

right now Im banging to 9th Wonder and Buckshot. download it bishes!!

i like that ayo technology song... but mostly cause JUSTIN is in it.
since you like the song, I wonder what "ayo technology" means. When justin says "I'm tired of this technology"? Considering the fact that they renamed the song a few times, I assume it means P0rn.

yup 50 does have a lot of songs that are catchy and worth listening to. I just wonder why he put his as$ on the line going against Kanye like that.

And to answer you question C UNit, 50 brought that on himself. He called out Kanye, otherwise the thought of comparing the two would never have crossed my mind either.

well, I don't care about him that much to defend him, but I figured he wasn't really being serious when he 'threw a tantrum'. regardless of tantrum throwing, about all the old and underground hip hop greats, from kweli to common to krs-one to nas (if you consider him true hip hop) to lupe give kanye credit; he's really established himself as an mc, and as a pop entertainer now apart from that.

In case he hasn't noticed, it's not that hard to be successful at rap. My brothers 18 year old preppy friend can make beats on his Mac. I can call up 6 friends on campus that can freestyle. Woop-dee-do!
I know! Its like, so easy to rap and be famous at it. I mean, look how successful your friends are at it! well, maybe not yet, but thats only because they don't really care enough about it huh. but ooh they could cuz its easy!

kanye can't rap for shit. He is a good producer, most of the time, and nothing more.

Neither.


Real Hip-Hop died in the late 80s early 90s. All this stuff now is garbage. Give me an old Eric B & Rakim album on vinyl than a 50 Cent album on an iPod, bitches.
