I think the industry was trying to move to a new genre of music with new artists to make more money . 50 was always on top if you like to agree or not, his songs flows lyrics features, at least he helped gunit with making their own carees and people knowing their name. 50's A Beast

Certainly was they got tired of seeing 50 cent on top plus he pissed off jimmy iovine

I dont think his career was sabotaged, around "Curtis" , the industry was going thru a shift and then when we saw Kanye beat him in sales, we saw him in a losing position which may have hurt his momentum.

I'm From Queens , and Queens always had Hip Hop on Locked down since the 80s without Queens Rap wouldn't be what it is today and 50 cent is part of that reason. He almost even shut down Jay Z and 50 ruined his own career with all the beefs he started hes lucky he wasnt blacklisted.

2003-2005 was absolutely amazing for 50 & G-Unit. The man couldn’t miss. But he shouldve regrouped when things started reaching oversaturation. He had a movie, video games, album releases, sneakers, & clothing line. Then the Vitamin Water deal hit which clearly now looks like his stake was seriously exaggerated lol. But at the time, we all thought he walked away with $400 million which clearly wasn’t the case. He shouldve just seriously focused on the quality of the music of the label instead of the beefs & antics. The beefs & antics honestly started making him look a bit silly & out of touch. Then the beefs with his own crew just made things look worse. Thank God for him making Power tho. 50 is still a very smart man.

Cause Ik they wanted to work with him & his crew, vice versa. 2) by 05, he was everywhere. It was scary. He’s probably the first rapper to ape his 360 deal. He brung platinum artists in as a group and solo, launched Game’s career, vitamin water, had a movie, clothes, sneakers, MADE A CRAPPY GAME THAT STILL SOLD 2 MILLION COPIES & most people forget, but he continued his tape run after Get Rich under G Unit Radio until 06 when each G Unit member, including the new ones like Mobb Deep & Mase, dropped their own themed GUR tape! So the world was 50’d out, or so we thought.. I didn’t know 50 was leaking his own records on The Massacre. Considering the fact he was one of the highest selling acts on the label, I know fuck well they didn’t take kind to him leaking content.

The Game was a G Unit black sheep that became the most successful of the crew. So that was a big crack in the g unit armor when parted ways 1st. Showing finally that 50 wasn’t invincible. 3. New York was divided by the beef while the South multiplied and the west rode along in their resurgence. 4. 50 thought he could steamroll other artists the way he did Ja Rule. We also realize the other beefs we’re not as mainstream or interesting. 5. Kanye shifted the musical platform by late registration and gangster rap started loosing it’s appeal. 6. The Lil Wayne mixtape YMCMB era rewrote the rules of gangster rap, regional appeal and had no beef allowing the unprecedented run. New York was no longer considered the Mecca of lyricst.

50 just ain't a very good rapper, bottom line. All he raps about is shooting people. It's got old quick fast and in a hurry.

I never seen a album hit as hard as get rich did plus his buzz before it dropped was crazy. But I think what hurt 50 the most was he started doing everything he criticized ja rule for. Once he came out with candy shop he opened the door for people who didn’t just hate on all the success he was having.

His career was never “ruined”. He had his moment on top and others came in the game and took the spot. We’ve seen it happen time and time again in rap. Ye dropped Graduation and ran with the title. Or at least shared it with Wayne. 50 didn’t have absolute GOAT status albums like that so he couldn’t sit at the throne like Jay or Dre. It’s just weird to hear that ppl think his career got ruined overtime. The rap game changes quick and during a pivotal time period he was more concerned with beefing, vitamin water and thisis50 than making certified classics like his peers.

50 and gunit ruled the world

It was ruined by Jay-Z, Jay spent money to keep 50 off the radio, off interviews and stopped his progression along with G-Unit, yeah he spent a good amount of money but he earned more by getting G-Unit out the game

Great video bro, ppl only see the outside of these artist but looking on the inside is way different

I don't think he got ruined it's just that every star fades no matter how big they get. If you look back at any superstar that got big especially rap it usually last about 6yrs (3 albums) then after that it seems the masses lose interest. They might still be relevant and put out good stuff after that but it never gets as big as you were for those 6yrs 3albums.

@@justthisguy1948 you can put 50 and Kanye in there as well that's not what I'm talking about those guys are legends icons even I'm talking about the basic rapper life line 6 yrs 3 albums if you're lucky even with Jay-z and Eminem they'll be around forever but look back when the were dominating back then its for 3 albums they were on top you can argue that it's 4 or 5 for Jay-z but you gotta take under account that biggie and 2pac were killed before there runs started. I mean Eminem would of still blew up because of the white novelty thing the record labels were craving a white dude who can spit but Jay-z wouldn't be as big as he is if biggie was still alive reppin Brooklyn. And 2pac was dominating everything and that time and was beefing with Jay so if he stayed alive he would have shut rockafella down if he wanted to they would have never gotten as big as they did.

I mean.. based on my knowledge of how record labels work, the engineer in the studio is someone who is employed under the umbrella of that label. If that label assigned sound engineer is responsible for recording the music and the head of that label is at odds with the recording artist, it’s not ludicrous to assume that the engineer would leak the A&R any new projects that the artist is making. Pretty much follow the people trail and you’ll get the answer. (Super ready for part 2 btw)

The truth is 50 got an extraordinary push at the beginning of his career, a phenomenal push. He would never have reached the levels he did without dre and Eminem endorsing him. Of course iovine was behind that move. GRODT was a great album for the time but it wasn't anywhere near illmatic or ready to die or all eyes on me or straight out of comption, wutang 36 chambers, efil for zaggin, the fugees musically. It just wasn't on the same level. Lyrically it def wasn't as strong. There was nostalgia for tupac and 50 successfully filled that void. 50 didn't handle his success too well and was bullying everybody in the industry. Going against iovine by trying to sabotage beats by dre was career suicide, dissing Jay z nas and puffy wasn't smart either. Good to see him doing well but the fact is he's £30 , his adversaries dre, iovine, Jay z are all billionaires. He even dissed snoop who's £150 of the back of his brand and nas is worth £70. So the truth is 50 won many battles but ultimately lost the war. The lesson is pride and hubris can be dangerous and definitely comes before a fall

It doesn't change how I view him...it reinforces what I think about the music industry.

50 was a pretty powerful man in the rap game at his peak, but beefing with other rappers and beefing with someone like Jimmy Iovine are two different things. Fair or not, Iovine had a kind of power 50 couldn't match. It's unfortunate because 50 could have been the biggest hip hop star ever. Alas, 50 seems to be doing well for himself in his current endeavors and will always be considered a legend in my mind. G Unit V Lox beef vid= YES PLEASE!

50 tried his best with every other album Get rich or die tryin was a perfection any other rapper would have struggled with this he has proved that he is one best and he Is a great rapper and shines whenever he appears in music or when he works with other people he isn’t perfect but not everything will be perfect

One reason just is that if you blow up like he did with the first "official album" then after that most of the year will be getting to now celebs, partying and just generally going grazy with money rather than labbing rhymes and beats. So second album many times comes out as half-assed. Also it's just a fact that getting shot 9 times is some marketing that you cannot get anywhere else but surviving that sh!t and propably you won't hope that for the second album.

I think it was. The dude was making waves and building up huge army of enemies.

You 100% right about the record label probably being the reason for his career slowing down. But I don't think the beef was necessarily the reason for his downfall. Simply because he came into the rap game beefing with the industry. Prime example HOW TO ROB! And him getting shot 9 times.

Quality video, very good perspective. There is definitely some fishy business about Fif's exit from the music business

I think people just got tired of his Manufacturing of beef just to sell records, people just want to hear good music so they went elsewhere to find it and his decline followed.

I was in HS when this came out 50 had took over the rap game

That "My Life" record ft Eminem and dude from Maroon 5 was 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Man I was in 8th grade when GRODT came out man everyone was on many men wayyyyy before it dropped as a single and that album was in my rotation heavy till bout late 10th 11th grade

I was in ninth grade when get rich dropped. There has never been an artist come out with that much momentum before or after. Everybody was yelling g unit then a year later everybody wearing Gunit clothes and sneakers. And I'm from Kentucky

50 is one my favorite top rappers

Get Rich or Die Trying sounds aggressive cause he was hungry,we never got that 50 back

I was born in 1992 so alot of this I remember bout 50. Wanksta was my shit. I always thought 50 was just more interested in his business ventures than making music.

I need that Black Magic album.
