I'd love to go on a long diatribe about how 50 is the most fraudulent former rap superstar ever, how his reign was largely a collection of bland gangsta pop rap that doesn't stand the test of time and only seems to still excite the most cacster of cac virgin school-shooters-to-be...and all that is true but let's be real: different demographics. My GOAT Nas would probably get a very cool and "who?" response from that crowd too.
But since I'm already on a roll
We gonna pretend like 50 Cent didn't have the shortest reign of any so called rap don?
We gonna pretend like 50 Cent wasn't the equivalent to young white boys of what Taylor Swift is for young white girls?
We gonna acknowledge that Kanye West ended 50's career and turned the chapter on gangsta pop rap
We gonna admit that to this day Hov and Nas remain the last two true Kings of New York, and 50 Cent was like the rap version of the steward of Gondor in Lord Of The Rings?
We gonna pretend that G-Unit stanleys aren't furious at this post and would neg me if the rep system was still online
The kings stay the kings
