50 never stopped being relevant musically nor culturally. He's had the life cycle of any hip hop veteran worth a damn; you cant be the new cool nikka on the block forever. He had more than his fair share of time at the absolute top of the game and then his popularity waned because all the fairweather suburan kids that contributed to those platinum and diamond albums moved on to the next "IN" thing. Even though he never produced any more albums that matched up to his 1st three, He still had a plethora of far superior mixtapes, singles and media presence to keep his brand poppin. Just caused you followed the hype beast crowd and slept on all of that doesnt mean all that shyt you say was even remotely true. His name has never been forgotten since his debut and continues to grow in relevance and success in his other ventures. But if you just wanna talk music wise, he still puts out at least 2 or 3 singles a year that chart well enough to keep his name strong and people aware.
message board logic got alot of you nikkas believing in these made up wishful thinking scenarios that dont hold up in the real world, but sound cool in your little echo chamber of haters, wave hoppers, and hype beasts, and elitist types. Non of that goofy shyt yall talkin even matters or hold weight IRL, its just a negative circle jerk to feel better about yourselves at best and a poor, played out troll tactic to elicit a response at worse. Whats next? Pac was a ballerina part 3,547,218, 'fukk these Dusty old heads' thread number 7,000 or Tekashi 69 is the biggest thing in american music history, im totally not an agent part 527?
ITs 2018, step up your troll game

Just saying I wouldnt make a thread about a man and artist whom I didnt like.
You make me dislike John Wall
You make me dislike John Wall
That's what I came up with off the top of my head, and more than enough to disprove whatever you were getting at.

Went double plat 1-2 years agoIs this the biggest hot to irrelevant ratio in hip hop history?
Last hit was 2007's I Get Money
Ever since then
-20+ singles flopped
-last album sold 36k
-filed for bankruptcy
-SMS audio cost him $9M in a lawsuit
-50Central was a flop
-G-Unit reunion flopped
As a G-unit Stan from 2003 this hurts
Only filed cause he lost two lawsuits. Sued his lawyers and profited (paid the old losses too)

Musically yes and same goes for budden stop saying these nikkaz are relevant musically
Never got the thing about "he's relevant in x". It's like saying that Troy Aikman is a relevant baller cause he's on tv all the time. Kim Kardashian is relevant artist cause her TV-show makes mad dough. Imo 50 is somewhat relevant, he manages to put out some videos with rnb artists and ride their wave once in a while. But as a solo artist, he's been done mostly cause he's been trying to repeat GRODT a thousand times and lost all his creativity. That's normal for many artists.
1. From what I know acting is very unequal and since when is it "this day and age", when wasn't there more actors making dumb bucks than rapper?
2. There's like 1000 relevant actors, 20 relevant rappers so obviously the top 20 actors will make more than the top 20 rappers. You are not even comparing music and acting, but section of American music to a global business. Compare black actors and black musicians instead.
3. 50 could make a million bucks for 1 hour of work when he was hot, is he making a million bucks per hour from his acting job
