Rap About Nothing: Hip Hop Chat Thread

50 sold more with GRODT than Ross has his whole career.

I'd take that.

And I'm sure he can tour and make more money touring and can tour the rest of his life.

So dudes need to chill with the 50 is dead talk. And we still care about what that dude is doing or saying.

If Ross brought a new Bentley would anyone care?
 
That's actually a good thing. Ain't like Ross is hurting for money and needs to sell records. He's always been happy for Meek and Wale shining. He helped them get a boost and let them run with the ball. Ross still the best on that label though. Still been putting out great music.

It's a lot of dudes who have sold a lot more than Ross that had money issues, so I wouldn't assume Ross isn't hurting.

We don't know dudes bank account so you right but it ain't a bad thing that he's the coldest one on his label. It's his label. Meek has been one of the hottest rapper of the last 5-6 years, Wale has had hit records while he's signed to MMG, all of that is a good thing for Ross.
 
Nah, Jay was never as big as 50 and Jay getting with Beyonce has helped him stay where he is.

Jay highest album was like 6 mil, he's a superstar obviously but he didn't have that run that 50 had. People hated 50 after 2-3 years.

Animal Ambition was a dope album, it ain't 4:44 but it was good. People just like ****ting on 50 and acting like he can't make music anymore.

So him regressing as a rapper and using that same ol 2003 formula, "spark a beef, drop a generic single" had nothing to do with it? It's all the fans fault?
 
Some of yall trying to play revisionist history about 50's music career being DEAD before the Ross beef, keyword DEAD, now he was definitely down from his peak but definitely wasn't dead just check the album sales on Curtis that dropped in 07. Kanye started the ball rolling on 50's music career with Graduation outselling Curtis but Curtis still sold well at the time. Ross just put the nail in the coffin on him after they started beefing in 08, look at the drastic drop on 50's next album in 09 "Before I Self Distruct" compared to the sales of Curtis. Kanye dethroned 50 in 2007, Ross finished 50 in 2009
 
That 50 order of protection has been proven to be authentic many times. Dudes will judge a dude for getting a job at 19yrs old but conveniently side step that part lol

50 killed Ross by taking his baby mama shopping at Gucci for furs, and his being a correctional officer,
The only L 50 ever took was losing that lawsuit and having to declare bankruptcy so he didn’t have to pay that thot




Tb to one of the greatest performances of all time, crowd was dead though like all Coachella’s

We all know it's real but some people have said 50 filed it, some said it was filed because the cops were there and it wasn't by 50. Some said Yayo filed it, I don't know all the info but if he did, he weak as **** for it and that's a huge blemish on his "authenticity" record. I just can't confirm that 50 filed it or didn't.


Nelly went Diamond...

50 couldn’t sell 70k nowadays

This proves my point, both huge artists going diamond. Both don't sell records today no matter how good the project is.
 
Animal Ambition was 50’s Kamikaze, decent only cause previous releases were either very mediocre, or flat out bad.
 
His signature is on it though :lol:

Ross's biggest F up was trying to deny that he was a CO briefly as a teenager. He should have just been real about it.

He should have been honest about it. I don't know why he wouldn't. It's just another lie.

And if 50 really signed it, he weak as **** for it. I just know I've heard so many different stories and people saying different things.

I loved Before I Self Destruct, thought it was great.
 
Heard it was the label forcing 50 to get that Order of Protection

50 had Ja walking around with a manila folder trying to clap back with documents :lol:

Supreme mcgriff himself has said in interviews that 50 never snitched,
There’s a video of supreme right hand man in a radio interview saying 50 never snitched

It’s been said many times that the producer was the one who filed the order of protection against Ja rules crew since he was in the room when the stabbing took place
50 was there so he ended up on the paperwork,

My pops when he was still doing his delivery services has seen 50 in nyc in the 2002 ish era with no bodyguards, rolling around in a Ferrari, that was in the height of his beefs.
Dude is a street cat with no fear.


IMO i never vibed with Ross music. Even before the co **** came out I never vibed with his music, IMO his lyricism is trash.
 
Games "final" album track listing

Game gotta get rid of some of those features. Too lyrical for that ****.

The Doc 2.5 is still one of the best albums of the last few years.
 
Ross is a fraud. He is not the real Freeway Rick Ross. He was a CO and chose to lie because he was scared of the backlash. We understand that.

The music is still good though.

50 cent wasn’t the real 50 cent. He went out like a gangster. 50 went out with vivica 6 months after wanksta.

Really I just wanted to quote those Game bars
