October 22nd, 2009 at 9:03 pm
You gotta really like Fif’ to think this trash is hot.. I mean, the song is actually hard but I just don’t actually see this coming from him anymore. He’s not actually a gangster! Actually, he used to be, but he isn’t anymore!!! Actually, where’s the actual guy that tries to sound like he’s actually intelligent in actual interviews?? lol
Nah, video is wack tho.. doesn’t do the song justice. Is he ACTUALLY trying to act??
Hahaha
October 22nd, 2009 at 9:03 pm
LMAO Gucci did his thin i cant hate
October 22nd, 2009 at 9:05 pm
AND THE PART WHERE 50 LOST THE SCUFFLE AND HIS MANS HELPED HIM OUT (THO 50 WOULD NEVER LOSE A FIGHT CUZ HE’S GOLDEN GLOVE WHICH MEANS HIS FISTS ARE LISCENCED AS WEAPONS) I DOUBT YALL KNEW THAT BUT THAT PART IN THE VID WAS SYMBOLIC OF REAL SITUATIONS. LIKE I SAID HOOD SHIT …
October 22nd, 2009 at 9:05 pm
DOPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! video and remix!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
October 22nd, 2009 at 9:06 pm
I AGREE LMAO
October 22nd, 2009 at 9:14 pm
That’s not an official remix. Gucci just threw some bullshit over the looped beat.
October 22nd, 2009 at 9:16 pm
Its a real remix.
October 22nd, 2009 at 9:16 pm
Gucci mane where’s the video?
October 22nd, 2009 at 9:19 pm

October 22nd, 2009 at 9:20 pm
Damn fif got a whole script or something I like though it told a story can’t wait to watch pt 2
October 22nd, 2009 at 9:24 pm
Video is niceeeee, man.
Does 50 have authorization to put that Universal logo at the start of the video though? lol
October 22nd, 2009 at 9:37 pm

October 22nd, 2009 at 9:38 pm
smh
October 22nd, 2009 at 9:57 pm
by the way isnt that Governor riding shotgun with fif?…the two originators of the best of both worlds idea, when they were both under tone and poke, later taken up by jay-z and r.kelly…..
October 22nd, 2009 at 9:59 pm
This shit is trash just like everything 50 cent does that dude needs to grow the fuck up with his childish shit wack ass Mo Fo
October 22nd, 2009 at 10:01 pm
The song is sick…I like the mini movie…Gucci does not disappoint on the remix.
October 22nd, 2009 at 10:05 pm
song is okay. wish 50 brought back the get rich flow cause his recent stuff is missing something
gucci actually lent a decent verse. wtf is this world coming to
GUCCI!
October 22nd, 2009 at 10:14 pm
I ain’t gon lie just when I got ready to hate this song/video I actually like this song and the video is funny as hell.P.S dude on twitter that called Miss Info a dick rider was just being ignorant! Shit if it’s hot it hot!
October 22nd, 2009 at 10:17 pm
Is he ultimately signed to Universal?
October 22nd, 2009 at 10:18 pm

October 22nd, 2009 at 11:38 pm
As much as I’m a fan of the Song I just don’t see the video helping the song. I mean the first song you hear is an old Banks song(don’t know why they choose that song) then the HD quality wasn’t really right. Then I didn’t really understand the concept whats the storeline? wheres the backstory? Just didn’t think this was one of this best videos to date.But he gets a E for effort.
October 22nd, 2009 at 11:44 pm

October 23rd, 2009 at 12:15 am
I’m not really a big Gucci fan personally!!!
I would Like to see Sean Price and Crooked I or Banks and Uncle Murder or something….
But Gucci aint right on this track at all…
October 23rd, 2009 at 12:43 am
hot!
gucci really is taking over the streets
October 23rd, 2009 at 12:44 am
bro u sound like a 10 yr old virgin [edit]…
(aside from this lame-o’s comment…song hard tho)
October 23rd, 2009 at 1:53 am
when is Gucci’s illiterate sounding female punching ass going to just go the hell away?
October 23rd, 2009 at 2:07 am
Video and original track sounds nice.
Remix… Gucci wasn’t bad. He did his thing.
October 23rd, 2009 at 2:14 am
oooo dblock would be crazy
October 23rd, 2009 at 2:16 am
yes it is. and I never really knew that tidbit thanks!
October 23rd, 2009 at 2:17 am
GARBAGE.
October 23rd, 2009 at 3:01 am
Gucci is garbage…..He’s part of the doctor suess epidemic in hip hop, weak rhymes that rhyme words like cat and bat…the dude has no lyrical talent….like a soulja boy type…and why is 50 doing a song with him when he took a shot at his boy Eminem on the Obsessed remix with mariah?!
October 23rd, 2009 at 3:03 am
Simple. Nice.
October 23rd, 2009 at 3:14 am
the video is pure comedy.
especially the part when his mans hits dude with the hammer. literally.
October 23rd, 2009 at 3:21 am
NOOOO! 50 was coming back strong until this shit. Why 50 why?
October 23rd, 2009 at 3:52 am
FYI, this same track was on Fab’s “From Nothin to Somethin” with Red Cafe, Budden and Fab. The track hot as a bitch though.
PS. Info when that new Clipse x Cam’ron droppin? We need that crack rock for our fiendin ass iPods!!
October 23rd, 2009 at 4:00 am
queer>>>>>>>>>>>anon
October 23rd, 2009 at 4:13 am
Yes, he’s signed to Universal/Vivendi, so no harm no foul there.
Plus we all know he legally changed his name to Curtis “Interscope” Jackson in 2006. Or was that “Billion Dollar Budget” Jackson, I forget…
October 23rd, 2009 at 4:14 am
I second that, thanks! I didn’t know The General and Governor went back that far either. Word is they have a blistering hot new track produced by Rockwilder.
October 23rd, 2009 at 5:05 am
Honestly I appuald Fif for staying out there and working hard. So many of my fav rappers are bums sitting around waiting for their labels to get them hot. Its dope to see a multi-millionaire still working hard and being pro-active w/o Interscope.
The Song and Video are hard!
October 23rd, 2009 at 5:48 am
What did 50 shoot from that shotgun? Looked like a bunch of red from Microsoft Paint…
October 23rd, 2009 at 6:59 am
FIYAH!!!…
October 23rd, 2009 at 7:22 am
I am not a Gucci fan in the slightest but this was the best verse I ever heard from him. I also would have like to see D Block, Maino, and DMX on that shit. That would be too hard.
October 23rd, 2009 at 7:40 am
50 SHOULD HAVE LET D-BLOCK OR THE CLIPSE BLESS THIS TRACK…GUCCI DON’T FIT IN A CRIME WAVE…STRIP CLUB, NOT A CRIME WAVE LOL
October 23rd, 2009 at 8:07 am
omg ..that white dude missed at point blank range… & didn’t even graze fif..
where did that shot gun come from anyway
October 23rd, 2009 at 8:30 am
Wow Gucci’s flow sounds HORRIBLE! Like, how the fuck does that sound pleasing to anyone’s ears?? No wonder hip-hop music is going down the shitter :sigh:
October 23rd, 2009 at 8:42 am
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!
October 23rd, 2009 at 8:58 am
though you actually might have a point to some of the things you say. Can you honestly say that in Hip Hop that hasn’t happen before. though I won’t do your long well thought of points to prove it but to say 50 is on Cam’s Dick is dumb. Usually when a person is on a person’s sh*t its when that person is more talented,successful and more known and thats not the case with 50.
October 23rd, 2009 at 9:01 am
Also just a question….. why do you come on info’s blog if you seem to not like her thoughts on topics? I mean you are entitled to your opinion and thats all fine and stuff but I just never understand why people come on here and get mad when Info gives her opinion on things. please don’t take this as a diss just something that I noticed with some people on here.
October 23rd, 2009 at 9:35 am
hes not! WHAT! pink range rover driven ass nigga. “my pink panther, my panther is pink”
October 23rd, 2009 at 9:42 am
“50 WOULD NEVER LOSE A FIGHT CUZ HE’S GOLDEN GLOVE WHICH MEANS HIS FISTS ARE LISCENCED AS WEAPONS)”
Question: Are you a fucking idiot dude or did the doctor pull to hard on you head when your mother gave birth??
Son the golden gloves is amateur boxing and in no way do you get your hands liscenced as weapons.
October 23rd, 2009 at 9:43 am
I’m no big fan of FIF and it would be easy to dismiss this as retread gangster nonsense. Nonetheless, the song is the best thing I heard from FIF in a while. I like the chorus, the verses highlight FIFTY’s strengths and GUCCI’s verse was better then I could have expected. It pains me to say this but two thumbs up on the simple video, smoothly delivered hook, and verses from GUCCI and FIF.
October 23rd, 2009 at 9:46 am
the song is hot and so is the song but this is kind of all true though
October 23rd, 2009 at 9:50 am
has any one notice that 50 killed Ja rule, killed Fat joe, rick ross is going to see the damage once he drops his next album too but really didnt do shit to Cams career. I say this because Crime Pays sold over 100,000 and the dude is not signed to a major. 100,000+ solo is great! have you guys seen what some of these dudes signed to majors are selling???!!! Cam wouldve gone atleast gold had he been signed to a major
October 23rd, 2009 at 10:09 am
are u serious camron stole i hate my job from his fan who sent him a demo eveybody is coping everyon bet u in som tight ass bitch pants cuz weeze made u do it stfu
October 23rd, 2009 at 10:30 am
That D Block G UNit Project would have done soooooo much damage had 50 not had his Ego so out of control.
October 23rd, 2009 at 10:43 am
I concur! He still hustles! The vid and song is hot! I’m not a Gucci fan AT ALL, but I like him on this track! FIRE!
October 23rd, 2009 at 10:44 am
Gucci mustve paid 50 to be on that song. Thats the only way that I think he got on there. He doesnt fit, he sounds awful, and that beat is perfect for Jada or even Lloyd Banks to rip. I know hes “hot” right now, but come on man lets be serious.
October 23rd, 2009 at 10:49 am
The video could have been better, but it was still a cool theme. Those acting drug dealers were lames, they wouldn’t last a year at that shit. 50 is definately not on steroids anymore, which is cool, for that shit is queer for anyone not playing football. The remix was nice and Gucci tore that track up, even if you hate him he ripped it. I hope they make a video and put some $$$ into it.
October 23rd, 2009 at 11:29 am
I fuck with Fifty, no homo, but I wish he would stop sayin actually and actual all the time. It undermines whatever he’s trying to say.
October 23rd, 2009 at 11:37 am
yeah i agree, it sounds like they muted fif’s vocals and then let mushmouth…oh a mean gucci rap…his lyrics weren’t bad but you can tell that this is protools remix…
October 23rd, 2009 at 11:38 am
Are you talkin to me? lol
I almost ALWAYS agree with MissInfo. I LIKE missinfo (no homo) I always have said that. The reason I patronize her site so much is cause I respect her as a journalist.
Miss Info…Dont I say that all the time? lol
No Disrespect…I think u may be confused. Go back and read some older post. I am a MissInfo supporter. When I call myself “The Antagonist” thats because my opinions are very BOLD and tend to tick people off and get the most responses. (kinda like this one did) thats why I say that.
But I phuck with “Murda Minya” (lol no homo)
October 23rd, 2009 at 11:41 am
lol. Everyone has their verbal crutches that they use….like “at the end of the day”….and “bong”…and nahmean. I’m sure I do to. Sometimes I think they’re like safety pins that we use subconsciously to tie one thought to the next.
October 23rd, 2009 at 11:42 am
Ummm…lol
Yes, I do frequently wear tight “bitch” pants. IM A GIRL! lmfaooooo Not because Lil’Wayne told me so.
However, I do NOT NOT NOT like men in skinny jeans! YUCK! I agree…they are b*tch pants.lol
Oh…Im sorry, were u talkin to the other guy? lol ~my bad~
October 23rd, 2009 at 11:42 am
LOL@6:19
October 23rd, 2009 at 11:44 am
Yessir, Jada and Styles on this would be crazy!
October 23rd, 2009 at 11:44 am
I understand…I usually make good points, (here and there)but it’s my delivery thats a bit distasteful…right?
Yeah…Thats why im “The Antagonist”.
(I appreciate the response though fam.)
October 23rd, 2009 at 11:53 am
He’s not!!! Period! You are definitely a Cam stan. 50 sold 30 mill being 50, Cam sold 3 mill being Cam, I don’t think 50 is trying to be like Cam.
October 23rd, 2009 at 11:57 am
kinda odd to see gucci on this being that i thought gucci was getting at em on that obsessed remix. wonder if 50 and em are beefing. 50 got mad in the past about people working with artist he had a problem with kinda da odd to see this.
October 23rd, 2009 at 12:54 pm
Let me start by saying I’M NOT SAYING 50 IS NOT SMART! He’s a millionaire and that takes some sort of smarts. But he is trying hard to SOUND smart. 50’s not articulate and tries to sound like he is.. why? If you want people to think you’re an intelligent articulate person then stop making ignorant violence-glorifying shoot ’em up shit! Don’t get it twisted, the song is hard. But at the end of the day, you’re not the GRODT 50 anymore.. nahmean? Grow up already! He’s obviously changed as a person, and he makes it obvious by acting smart (i.e. talking about age demographics, aggressive content, harsh realities, and shit like that) over and over and over again, but it’s not reflected in his music.. AT ALL!
All I’m saying is you can’t be one way in the booth then another way in interviews.. at least be consistent and stay in character. Just my opinion..
October 23rd, 2009 at 1:03 pm
WHAT DUMB MADAFAACKER SAID 50 IS COPYING CAMRON….HOW DUMB DO YOU SOUND…..THIS GUY IS RESPONSIBLE FOR SELLING CLOSE TO 50 MILLION RECORDS IN 6 YEARS AND HE IS COPYING LMAO….PUHLEESE LOL…..YOU SOUND STUPID…

October 23rd, 2009 at 1:20 pm
yeah, I know. I’m gonna address it.
October 23rd, 2009 at 1:26 pm
Yes…
And Elvis Presley sold a billion records being Elvis?
Or did he steal his style and even music from artist far far less famous than him?
If your gonna come at me with debate, please come with something more than money and success! Successful people copy less successful people all the time to get to the top and stay there and keep the lil guys irrelevant, or less relevant than them.
(im not even saying that Camron hasnt done that. Im just stating a fact!)
Your acting like 50cent didnt copy cam and wouldnt copy cam, or someone like him cause hes more successful and thats ridiculous and ignorant to say the least!
*good day*
who’s next?
October 23rd, 2009 at 1:45 pm
Fisrt off, a debate with you is pointless is you’re comparing 50 Cent to Elvis. LMFAO! Secondly, just because an artist has a skit for his video or song, doesn’t mean he/she got it from Cam. Does 50’s music sound anything like Cam? NOOOO! Does 50 rhyme anything like Cam? NOOOO!!! Is G-Unit anything like Dipset? NOOO! So GTFOH with this 50 is on Cam’s dick. No one and I repeat, no one is on Cam’s dick but you. No one wants to wear pink, or purple, and rhyme gooey with oooey. That ain’t swagg, that’s ignorance at it’s best. 50 nor would anyone else here on this message board copy Cam! GTFOH! Now for real, who’s next!!
October 23rd, 2009 at 2:46 pm
lol, the “Long Island” part was actually filmed in Laurelton. It was cool to see 50 near my hood.
October 23rd, 2009 at 3:10 pm
Yo that joint is fucking ill as fuck, feeling that shit from 50 right, now this is that shit. Fifty need to drop that 50th Law mixtape before the album drops. I have a feeling this is gonna be a dope album, not as good as GRODT, but its gonna be a hard raw album.
This joint is fire, not a fan of Gucci at all, seems kind of out of place on this song, so I’m not sure if its an official remix or just a freestyle over the song.
I heard on thisis50 something about a remix with G Unit, Banks, Yayo, Lox and DMX? Dont know if thats true.
So is it official info or what? If it is, I guess this is a way for Fifty to get some love in the south rocking with Gucci.
But the video is hot, the thing about Fifty I like is this aint no single, no real BET single or nothing, this is for the fans, the internet, how many mixtape videos does he do and shit, no other rapper does that.
This is just a street joint off the album, and he did a hot video for it, and its to be continued, wonder what that means? Another song from the album maybe? A mixtape joint he continues with the video, or could it be a remix of the song.
But this is a dope video I think, alot better than standing in front of a green screen or just standing there. Shit is ill, cant wait for BISD to drop, Fifty bringing that heat back, now drop that mixtape man, thats what I’m waiting on.
October 23rd, 2009 at 3:12 pm
WTF?
You think he was coming back strong until this song?
This song is fucking crack. This shit is raw as fuck, Fifty been ripping shit with War Angel and Forever King, he dropped heat with Flight 187 and Dreamin, but this song is raw, shit is hot. I aint a Gucci fan, but the song and video for this is hot, I’m feeling what he is doing, I know the Baby By Me soft radio/RB shit has to be there, but Fifty on that street shit is what I fucks with, this is the kind of shit I rock with.
Cant wait for BISD, Nov 23rd.
October 23rd, 2009 at 3:18 pm
Shut up. Why the fuck you listen to it then?
This is the kind of person I dont get. The he isnt in the streets no more so he should move on and do something else.
So he does a different thing, he does shit with JT or Robin Thicke, goes more RB, they hate him for that, fuck do you want?
Any rapper, street rapper raps about the street, do they not?
Does Wayne, Gucci, TI, Jada, Fab Jay etc, do they not all talk about street shit?
Sure RB shit, softer radio records, other shit rappers make songs about, but this is what people fuck with, this is what made them hot, whether they live it anymore or not, you’d be the first one dissing him for doing something different.
Its always the same shit.
He does hard shit, its thats old, do something new.
he does something new, rb shit maybe, they say he is soft, go back to the street shit. He does something else, its wack, its just never ending hate.
He could drop GRODT today and people would hate on it.
October 23rd, 2009 at 3:19 pm
blablabalah Cam’ron blabla Cam’ron “THIS IS OBVIOUSLY SOME CAM’RON TYPE STUFF! WHEN HAS 50CE4NT EVER CAME WITH SKITS WITH HIS VIDS AND ALBUM?”
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zZ5IKSWnik
HEAT STREET VERSION. Now whut?
Cam’ron fell off a long time ago,especially when he lost weight. He changed after that.
These days he sounds bored on records he’s delivery is lazy and tired and his bars just ain’t exciting no more. 50 is on major motion picture sh!t and doing international tours Cam just hangs in regular clubs, I know who’s career I prefer.
Just because Cam said 50 ain’t got no swag you lactch on to that like flies on doodoo?
50 been dressing the same way from before the deal. You either love it or you hate it and “at the end of the day” “it is what it is” “actually” “nah mean?”
50 Cent is not Cam’ron’s competition, Jim Jones is. Dipset is over and Vado ain’t that dude and out of respect for females i’m going to keep my opinion on Byrd Lady to myself.
October 23rd, 2009 at 3:21 pm
Dont know if its just some bullshit, but I saw on his site, thisis50 someone said there is a remix with G Unit (Banks,Yayo) Lox and DMX. Dont know if thats true or not, but it would be hot, G Unit and Lox on the track.
October 23rd, 2009 at 3:25 pm
This aint no official video and shit, its just a street single, in fact, FIfty is like the only one who does this shit, for mixtapes and shit, doing videos for his site, its about them staring a crime wave and shit.
I think its a hotter vid then others, just standing in front of a green screen or standing in a room in his house, like they did for ROTBS mixtape, its dope that he actually does videos out of pocket for his site and shit, cause clearly this isnt for BET or nothing, just for the internet.
October 23rd, 2009 at 3:36 pm
Yo your comment is as dumb as me saying Cam’ron copied the Cousin Bang sh!t off the Heat video.
Your like a die hard Cam’ron fan and that’s cute but don’t get gassed!!!people don’t check for Cam’ron like they used to.
Even the Cam’ron and Clipse joints that have just been posted vs 50 heat wave it’s over.
War Angel> Crime Pays
Forever King> Boss of all Bosses Gangsta Grillz this mixtape actually sucked!!
BP3>>>>>Crime Pays
He ain’t even bother releasing any more singles LOL!!!
October 23rd, 2009 at 4:11 pm
Info sorry…on this one ur totally wrong…and the bor mike is on point! Saying bong n at the end of the day don’t equate…the man is obviously thinking it makes him sound smarter…all his “bullet point” words never fit in to what one would call normal conversation & grammar! All the “general”, “space”, “actual”…”aggressive content”…he sounds like a fool trying absolutely too hard if you ask me…if you had crutches when you spoke, how come I’ve never caught on to them???…because ur intelligent or “sound intelligent” enough to pull it off at least lol…and let me make it clear I respect fif musically…but he sounds like that kid in LD who finally made it in to “real class” lol
October 23rd, 2009 at 5:18 pm
Please. Read what I said. Take. It. For. What. It. Is. Don’t put words in my mouth because of what YOU THINK I would be saying if this or that happened, blah, blah, blah. All I’m saying is if you’re gonna be a tough guy, the least you could do is stay in character. 50 goes from 1 extreme to the other.
Okay are you seriously comparing 50 to Jadakiss?? Really?!? 1st of all the only people you mentioned that I would seriously compare 50 to is Jay-Z and maybe Wayne & T.I. (Gucci, Fab & Jada haven’t had nearly as much success). With that said, Jay-Z would NEVER come out with a song like this at this point in his career, neither would T.I. Those guys’ songs reflect their ACTUAL life. Now Lil Wayne? Maybe he would. But whether or not he’s a real gangster AT LEAST HE’S IN CHARACTER. That’s all. If you’re gonna talk the talk, then walk the walk. Would 50 Cent tell Katie Couric, “I am a gangster, Miss Katie. I do what I wanna do!” ??? No.
I’m a fan of good music.. no bias. I WISH 50 would come out with quality records.. not the opposite. I was bumping that War Angel hard, but after a while it’s like okay “BANG BANG BANG!!” or “I’LL KILL THIS NIGGA!!” & “I’LL KILL THAT NIGGA!!” I’m like: NIGGA, NO YOU WON’T!!! I don’t give a shit who it is, that’s just wack! And if you do a song with Robin Thicke and it’s wack, then that’s just what it is. Wack! If you do a song with Justin Timberlake and Timbaland and it sounds like you just added a verse to any existing Justin Timberlake and Timbaland song, then that’s just what it is.
If he dropped GRODT right now I don’t know what I would think, honestly. If Illmatic or Reasonable Doubt came out right now I don’t know what I would think of them either. Those albums just came out at the right time, IMO. It was perfect for then.. it may not be perfect for now. But I think that’s what 50’s trying to do. He’s trying to get that first fix again like a dope fiend. Maybe he peaked with GRODT. That would be fucked up, but that just may be the case. And as long as he keeps trying to recreate it then people are always gonna compare it to that. How many Candy Shops, Majic Sticks, Amusement Parks, blah blah blah you gonna have? What’s the next cheesy metaphorical sex song? The Movie Theater?? lol
I’m done. I’m probably over your head anyway, Chris. I guess I’m just a hater cause I pay attention..

I love to see people take the time to post negative stuff, you just wasted time to hate? lol
im glad 50 put this out, his site and mixtape is fire
October 23rd, 2009 at 6:51 pm
I said the same thing actually(no pun) after i read the Complex.com interview. But, im sure someone will tell him about that
October 23rd, 2009 at 8:20 pm
@info…how can you defend him when that bird ass nigga when deserved that? OJ had no business performing in BB kings …PERIOD. Info you can address it all you want. But look at the line up raekwon ,jadakiss and styles. He had no chance! Nyers aint rude we are just really picky about what the fuck we pay for. A lot of down south niggas might disagree and say we are hating. But that is far from the reason why this man got disrespected. It is the fact that we trying to make a statement. I never had a problem with anyvbody making money. Especially when it comes to us struggling in the ghetto. But there is a time and a place for everything. It was neither for oj da juice.
Pardon me for jumping off subject I just had to address that
As far as chris goes …whatever we will see…
October 23rd, 2009 at 8:28 pm
Nahright and Onsmash booked OJ. So according to them…he had not just business to perform there, he had a contract, lol. And I dont think it had anything to do with NY, because he was well-received the next night at the club with Flex. Makes sense because that was his fan base. Some of the crowd in BBKings was clearly not. As for the we, that’s relative…because I personally don’t agree with the “we” you speak of. I didn’t feel the need to boo him. And wouldnt have even if I had the anonymity of being in the audience. So I dont agree that he “deserved” that or the animosity. Do you feel like I’m not qualified to have that opinion? Or have I earned that right?

@ Mr. Wayne
@ BP3>>>CRIME PAYS
What does that have to do with anything? lol
Jay-z is on a major lable, have you any idea the marketing dollars spent on his “actual” (50cent lingo) album?
Your comparing apples to oranges.Cam’ron even said he respects Jayz gettin money.
Why you bringing that up? You helpin him promote? You on his geek squad?
Its funny to me how people turn to everything else to validate their argument.
You have your opinion, I have mines. To me…It seems as if 50cent is mimmicking things Cam’ron did while promoting the crime pays album and durng his beef with 50cent.
The officer riccckkky thing is similar to cuuuurtis
this crime wave thing reminds me of crime oays the bakery snippets.
Even if it isnt similar to you, it is to me.
My thing is…50cent thinks cam is so wack and “not competition”. thats okay. But me, if im beefing with someone Im going to distance myself from everything they do. Especially if I say they wack. Im gonna go out my way to make sure their are no similarities.
To me…This is too “Killa Seasonish”/”The Bakeryish”. I know its only so many ways u can do the street stuff, it all looks the same after a while. But this looks like some camrons stuff, not some 50cent stuff.
*good day*
October 24th, 2009 at 5:01 am
Cam went away on his own so 50 let it die. I think this was around the time Cam got into it with tru life and was doing videos saying look at his pool.
October 24th, 2009 at 6:12 am
Damn has Cam’ron’s career become so lame that fans will give him credit for things that don’t have anything to do with him?
Cuurtiss vs Officer Rickyyy? I still don’t see the similarity.
“Cuuurtis” aka Curtis took that and made a platinum album, so the diss just turned into promotion for his album.
Would Rick Ross take “Officer Rickyyy” and make a gold album? I think not.
Curtis is 50 Cent’s government name.
William is Rick Ross’ government name.
Officer Rickyy is a diss. And Rick Ross would find that offensive.
50 wants people to credit his stuff away from music as Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson.
So i’m still struggling to figure out the similarities.
Well, Good day to you too Madam.
October 24th, 2009 at 9:17 am
u are right britney, 50 been wanted to be cam, thats why he felt so sad, when he called cam and alan grunblatt all on cam’s dick, and camron owned him. 50 had all the videos of that removed from youtube, but I got one saved to the hard drive haha, imma upload it one day
October 24th, 2009 at 9:18 am
If you think 50 has swag. Then YOU sir, have no swag either
October 24th, 2009 at 12:08 pm
Song is dope. Video is cool. Fif hustles hard.
As for Juiceman, what he really needed to do in NY was bring out Jada for that “Who’s Real” joint… I cant see NY heads booing Jooman when he’s ridin’ with Kiss.
Peace.
October 24th, 2009 at 12:24 pm
hahaha…. bitch you crazy!!!!
October 24th, 2009 at 12:26 pm
quadruple co-sign…
people out their mindzz
October 24th, 2009 at 2:48 pm
True. In spite of the music he makes had he ended with Kiss coming out it would have been all good.
October 24th, 2009 at 2:51 pm
I’ll be honest, while I understand why OJ got boo’d. People are being real hypocrites cuz the same people saying OJ shouldn’t have been there are folk that ARE NOT BUYING the albums of these NY lyrical artists.
You can’t have it both ways by dissing the low level Mc’s(lyrically speaking) then not supporting the so called “real hip hop” like what Slaughter House presented or a guy like SkyZoo who’s been grinding for years.
October 24th, 2009 at 5:58 pm
I say Charlie Murphy plays 50 in the 50-Cent story LOL
The video’s ok it reached alittle if you ask me. If you’re gonna make a full feature “thriller style” music video then please supply a back story and plot so if that was the aim then it fell short, but it clearly surpassed the typical gangsta-rap video with typical club footage complete with stripper & mean mugging thug extras, and slow-mo footage of rented cars and extremely tacky fake jewelry. So by not being that! 50-cents video for Crime wave wins but for basically being footage of a very unrealistic 2 man rampage through out the NYC with no plot of purpose 50 loses. Anyway like I said it was more entertaining this his usual shit videos so good job 50.
October 24th, 2009 at 6:23 pm
As for the remix eh I like gucci just not so sure if he fits the beat. I see what 50’s trying to do though and I can’t be mad at em for it. Gucci’s really hot right now in the underground and south so it’s a no brainer to try to catch some of that fire and at the same time make it look like he’s branching out and working with different kinds of artist. I see what he’s doing I don’t buy it because it’s 50 but anyway the song was good before and Gucci doesn’t really make it any worst or better for that matter.
In my opinion after his first album 50’s music is just kinda lame and predictable, his topics show little growth from album to album, I even think his flow and lyrical skills got alittle worse. The typical tough talk over hard beats by multi millionaires is just over done and dull and so far from the reality these type of rappers are constantly preaching about. So now I guess 50 has a really fake video to match the really fake life style he constantly raps about still living when he actually hasn’t lived, in like a decade if ever at all.
October 25th, 2009 at 6:03 am
i hope you on the juice mans pay roll
October 25th, 2009 at 4:36 pm
Peoples opinions are their own reality.
October 25th, 2009 at 6:30 pm
I never understand when people question 50 cent past life style. He is one of the few artist out there who past life is well documented from NY times to daily news and many other reputable news sources. there is a lot of artist out there who claim to have been gangster and there is no proof. Also people forget that he has not been out that long only 6 years get rich or die trying came out in 2003.
October 25th, 2009 at 7:58 pm
Kenny represents the typical hypocrite. Anyone that states 50 fell off after his first album loses all credibility. The Massacre was polished. There were at least three tracks on GRODT that I didn’t enjoy. I’ll admit that 50’s music is predictable, but that’s exactly what I want. I don’t like artists experimenting with their base.
October 26th, 2009 at 9:38 am
Why is Fif even fucking wit Gucci after the shit he pulled being on that Mariah track?
October 26th, 2009 at 5:26 pm
@mz.brittany…..damn brit u r obviously delusional & it seems u have a tendency 2 drift in & out of reality.how is fif on carmens [edit]? y would fif even attempt 2 b like carmen?u don’t c fif walk around wit a pink eye after being punched in it,fif don’t wear pink clothes,don’t drive pink cars, doesn’t rap like pinky or do n e thing like pinky.as a matter of fact who the fuck is pinky camrun 4 n e 1 & i mean n e 1 2 b on his [edit].follow the light & come back 2 reality.camrun is done finished no more.if u 1t 2 make a comparison then use babywipe cause they both equally & totally wack.
October 26th, 2009 at 5:33 pm
@formula50….penny ain’t no hypocrite the bitch jus plum dumb.lets get it right bc being a hypocrite means u got som’n 2 say & that dumb bitch has nothing 2 say that has even an ounce of fact.1.
October 26th, 2009 at 7:40 pm
@druroc I’m sure 50’s rap sheet is well documented all I’m saying is like 98.999% of all rappers it’s exaggerated, its an episode of Law & Order based on true events ripped from the headlines not an exact representation of true events and the actors are simply reenacting the situations LOL. I dunno 50 might have done the things he’s claimed in past songs but definitely not to the extent he claims to have done it, and that goes for all rappers. Anyone believing other wise is simply really naive and not in touch with reality. Everyone claims to be George Jung in Hip-hop but Jung spent the rest of his life in jail and these guys are rapping, which means these criminals turned rappers are either the smartest criminals ever or just really good at making us stories I think it’s the second one. The real question you should be asking yourself druroc is why you feel 50 should be proud of his alleged life style as if it was something to brag about because if that’s the case then you have bigger problems then can actually be addressed on this blog. And being out since 2006 is irrelevant to my original comment so that’s neither here nor there.
October 26th, 2009 at 7:48 pm
@formula 50 how does thinking that 50-cents skills or at least his drive to put out work that is on par with his original work make me a hypocrite? You guys really have to look up these words before you use them on here you’re really just embarrassing yourself. And I’m glad that you enjoyed the Massacre that’s you’re opinion and your entitled to it I would bet that most would disagree with you but that’s ok do you hommie. I’m also glad you enjoy 50’s predictability, I myself probably have more refined taste and prefer my artist to evolve with time and show change and growth with there art. If I wanted to here the same thing over and over again I would just listen to the first album. It was my opinion that you buy a new CD or download a new album to here something new but apparently you think otherwise you buy CD’s to here the same stuff over and over again no doubt like I said do you man don’t let anyone out there stop ya.
October 26th, 2009 at 8:00 pm
And last and definitely least Super h8 I thought I told you to go blind fold you’re self and step into traffic? Well since you somehow didn’t get hit by that bus as I hoped try this one. I want you to close all the windows in that tiny projects apartment of yours and turn that gas oven up real high now go take a nap and let me know how it turns out good luck my dude, and if you’re still hear tomorrow go play russian roulette with a fully loaded hand gun ok have fun
October 27th, 2009 at 12:12 am
your point?
October 27th, 2009 at 4:23 pm
You dudes dont get it. 50 cent has lived the life and has now matured to a top business man. That does not mean he can not cater to a street market anymore. At the end of the day that market still exsist. Any wise business man who sees an untapped market will tap it. The fact is 50 has to stay in his lane. He cant just start talkin grown man shit on tracks that’s jayz lane.
Also metarphorically speaking if he has not lost any of the aggression he had on the streets then why not channel it into the music. As for his business Accumen it speaks for itself. What i like about 50 is this he difines things with specific words. He is also a practical man so he is not going to find 20 deifferent words to describe 1 thing. If’s its a marketing space its a marketing space. If he’s in a good space he is in a good space. I think his words stick out more because they are uniquely defined. Where as others will use the word position repetitively (i.e i am in a good position)he uses the word space.
The you have it not all 50 fans are ignorant. We just appreciate his music cause it’s got testerone which you need in every environment in life not just the streets. I cant say thesame for Jayz and the company he chooses these days.

@mz.brittany….point is ur brighter than that.
October 27th, 2009 at 7:57 pm
@ penny wacktimes…..if i lived in the projects no big deal roof over my head,u think u better than ppl that live in projects?just cause u live home wit mom & pops u think u can look down on ppl from what u claim r lesser ppl than u bc of their surroundings?ur very small minded & thats y i’m a keep going in on ur bird brain DUMBFUCK ass.small ppl think small.was’nt ur god hova raised in the projects?look @ him now & imagine what he could say about u a lesser person 2 him if he ever saw u!DUMBFUCK.
