50 CENT speaks on regretting making Pearly Gates with Mobb Deep

[Amestafuu (Emeritus)]

Most artists had to sell their soul to be famous. Either that or they had to do some gay shyt.

that's your fantasy

 

[Thurgood Thurston III]

The small underground ones.

So every single famous artist has sold their soul?

At what point do you go from small underground artist to famous? Is it not a gradual change that happens naturally through marketing? Or can it ONLY happen if you sell your soul?

 

[Gritsngravy]

Funny story I heard from a friend with industry ties don’t know if it’s true or not but he’s never been one to cap.



He told me 50 and Fab both sold their “souls” but they repented/ got it back.

I don’t know nothing else
so don’t ask me how.

I wonder how do you sell your soul and what do you do to repent and get it back

Like is it some literal ritual shyt or is selling your soul just a extreme way of saying you went against your core beliefs for the bag and fame

Fat joe said there is a gay mafia

Fat joe said there is a gay mafia

there IS a gay mafia just not in the way people make it out.

glaad is a gay mafia. the whole shyt about everyone doing gay shyt for deals is over exaggerated bullshyt

 

[GoAggieGo.]

Should’ve regretted that blasphemous track.

Start praying and fasting and your actions, it’s not easy.

I don’t know about the latter ..

imagine being able to trade your soul to be used for "evil" intent in exchange for fame in riches....

Getting said fame and riches and then going "oops my bad God "

and then keeping all the shyt you bartered for.

Satan: Drat.... foiled again.

Hell nah its not gradual. They put the "mainstream push" order in after your first top off. Then you have to "re-up" everytime you want to get back into the public eye.They'll get their workers to start manufacturing buzz via "I wonder where so and so been at, he aint dropped nothin in a minute" comments on random social media posts and internet forums

 

[maxamusa]

I don't even remember that being controversial like that when it dropped.....that song didn't really make any noise......

 

[Jefferson Jackson]

Prodigy himself regretted it as well..
When I wrote 'Pearly Gates', they said I hated God
So I wrote this song for the creator, the all

A lot of the prominent posters here have sold their soul at some point. What they had to do I don’t know
