Sorry if this has been posted... I just got this and I dunno.. This doesn't seem like a good look at all. The hook is bad and seriously I just can't get with the lyrics... Outside of the supposed Dre production which is good, but not amazing, if this is the first single, shit is weak.

    nah i never expect anything from him, but he is usually a bit more on point as to what will sell as a single. This track seems like a miscalculation is all.

    The beat's pretty dope. I liked the "wife on a futon huggin' a shih-tzu" line, and the bit about how Jimmy Iovine only gets paid when Fitty's earned $60m is a classic - I'd believe the fucker could fly before I'd believe that one.

    IT SEEMS LIKE A PARODY OF A FIDDY-BANGER. IT LOOKS LIKE THE GAME MADE A BETTER FIDDY RECORD THAN FIDDY.



    PS. I HAVEN'T FELT A DRE BEAT IN A LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNGGGGTIME!

    yeh it seems like he is just making fun of anyone without money and in these days and times alot of cats don't have that dough. Seems a bit disconnected from his audience is all.

    And yeh ia m really questioning whether Dre actually produced this or just mixed it down.

    I would like to, but being that he is the biggest sellign hip-hop artist in the last 10 years its kind of hard not to. And you know all the labels/artists/industry is watching tos ee what happens when this album drops.

    that shit boggles my mind. he's a seriously average rapper, if not below average.

    Why?


    Anyway, this single's not as good as expected, but I'm still looking forward to the album, especially if it's anything like G-Unit Radio #22.

    Stuff I've heard off the album is sounding pretty hip hop. Lots of samples.

    yeah, he actually says jimmy only gets paid once he makes $80m... jimmy must not be seeing that much money nowadays if all his artists are on that plan, ha

    Would the fact that it isn't true relieve you of your boggledom?

    Because he hasn't outsold Eminem.

    at least Eminem can rap, so all is not lost.

    Eminem couldn't make a good song to save his life, which is ultimately more important than rap abilities as far as records are concerned

    well, Eminem can rap and yet makes shitty songs.

    50 can't rap and also makes shitty songs.

    not sure/don't care which is worse/better.

    50 can be really good, but he can also be really meh. this is definitely the latter.

    It doesnt sound like anyone cares anymore. no hunger.
