Let's Reminisce On Piggy Bank For A Minute
- Thread starter We Ready
- Start date
and his chess move foreshadowing got him number 5 on the 2012 top 5 list.
and unlike the other rappers on that list, hes not riding coattails of other artists to get some of that gwap to make that list.

dre........... all got rich on others.
50 got rich with his own body and mind. Not using others from the get and til this day, to maintain their rich status.
Sooo 50 ddnt use youngbuck and game to touch those 2 rap markets? Piggy Bank was the best dis record ever because this one man attacked about 10 emcees on wax and put them all on hiatus. In terms of Jada, 50 n Jada beef was just attack by association. Joe would never do a song with 50 but 50 n Jada already have done a track together.
at 50 popularized the term "chess not checkers".

Pooping on your head :umad:
Biggie dissed like 10 MCs on Kick in the door lol
And he put none of them on hiatus, The LOX was dropping a new 50 diss damn near everyday back then. Fat Joe, Shyne and Nas all dissed 50 back.
I'm not talking he popularized the term in everyday life....I meant he popularized it in hip hop circles.
Every time a diss comes out if it ain't brutal right off the bat everyone says......."chess not checkers"

50 is on Forbes list cause he invested in a company and sold it to coca-cola.

Jay, Puff, Birdman and Dr. Dre are on there for different ventures, but Birdman is mostly a record executive. So of course he needs other people.
But Dre, Puff and Jay would still be on there without accounting their executive work like 50. For Beats by Dre (and record sales) for Dre, Roc-a-wear, Translation (and show money/record sales) for Jay, Ciroc and Sean John for Puff.
To say that Birdman needs other artists to be on the list is like saying that 50 needed vitamin water to be on the list, both very true.
The difference I would say is that Birdman keeps on finding new artists, is 50 finding new beverages?

"That fat nikka thought Lean Back was "In Da Club"
My shyt sold 11 mill, his shyt was a dud"
"Jada don't fukk with me if you wanna eat
Cause I'll do your lil ass like Jay did Mobb Deep"
"Yeah homie, in New York, nikkas like your vocals
But thats only New York dawg, your ass is local"
"banks shyt sells, Buck shyt sells, Game shyt sells
I'm rich as hell, Shyne poppin' off his mouth from a cell
He don't want it with me, he in PC"
"Kelis said her milkshake brings all the boys to the yard
Then Nas went and tattooed the bytch on his arm
I mean that way out in Cali, nikkas know these guns
First thing they say about you, is you a sucker for love"
smh, those are the most elementary lyrics i have ever heard in a diss, no lie. 50 was fukkin awful on the Massacre. worst lyrical performance from a big dog in rap EVER.
but there was no anticipation for the song itself....everyone already heard it. it's not like people were knowing he was gonna do a diss song @ summer jam and everyone was talking about it for months in advance.
