50 isnt a rapper. hes a hustler.

and he still got 2 classic rap albums.

That there says it all. Why the fukk would I wanna listen to a hustler when I'm trying to hear a rapper? He is a good hustler though. He hustled the whole world into believing he was a dope rapper :laff:

I liked Power of the Dollar though. That's his classic to me. GRODT had some hot tracks but too much filler. My favourite track on the album was "What Up Gangsta". That was a real banger.

:what:

You have some distorted sense of reality. Show me a Wayne track in 2014 that has generated "4-5" million singles sold.

Show me any rapper in 2014 that has sold 5 million singles for one track.

this is the way the music industry is...after a certain number of years your fanbase grows up or moves on to other things and the new fanbases follow the newer trends and don't latch on to the past generations music

all those old rock bands make their money off touring and playing the same songs to the people who listened to them when they were in high school and are old fogey's now living off nostalgia

except in hip hop it doesn't work that way because its young people music and old people in their 40's and 50's would feel stupid talking about fukk the police and wu tang clan ain't nutting to fukk with ...

yep, go to a rolling stones concert and its all 40 plus, with some young hipsters, u2 etc.

i stopped listneing to rap like 6 years ago and like many people it just gets stale after awhile, thats why if your smart you do the master p no limit and flood the industry with music and releases before your 15min of fame are up.
