How to Rob isn't even what got 50 signed. It got people to take a little notice to him but that shyt dropped like five years before he even signed. It was Guess Who's Back and that mixtape grind that got him signed.

How to Rob was a blip on the radar for real.

the internet
I remember seeing ads in the Source for some 50 album way back then. Can't remember. He was fat. I liked the track but ignored him for the most part because he was a nobody.

years later, he reappears as this buffed-out rap god going hard at Ja Rule. And suddenly, everyone, including myself, was stanning him.
How are you old enough to remember when 50 first came out...yet Stan ASAP?
That shyt doesnt even make sense.

Actually there was a couple of people mad cuz they knew Fifs background.

Ghost, Rae, Kurupt, Sticky Fingaz all felt some kind of way.

Jay actually liked the song from what Ive read and heard..

He had a deal with Columbia, production from the Trackmasters, 1st official single with Beyonce and went on tour with Nas..

Before he got shot...
