It’s because 50 is basically a pop star. Those other guys don’t have that much popularity or hit records cause they never cared to make those records. Higher streaming Numbers also don’t mean much unless you think that equals good music when it doesn’t.
They definitely cared to make hits
They just couldn't

Some had moderate hits though. Songs that were on radio and everyone knows. I mean The LOX were on songs with Mariah Carey in the 90's and had a feature on J. Lo's song which was also a hit. I think some people just don't know much about certain artists or never payed attention.

No one ended 50 but himself. Kept using the same tired single and album formula while the industry was moving towards a different sound. Your average rap listener never even heard 300 bars.
50 didn’t ruin himself either. He just had a run. The music he was making (rap in general usually) is made for younger people. Those young people grew up, and the new young people had their own artists they were fukking with. You’re not SUPPOSED to stay on top forever.

That’s totally fine but never for a second believe a rapper with a recording budget large enough to buy a mansion isn’t worried about selling records. Total cop out


Of course they're not, still doesn't change the fact he wasn't in it for the art form. It was all about money and nothing else. That takes away from the music. This is why you see guys like The LOX, Dipset, Wu-Tang getting more praise. What 50 and G-Unit done was great, but their run didn't last long. shyt, even Game kept his career lasting long. He was in it for the craft.
