Lets think about it for a sec... at one point 50 was..

[C-Styles]

SO DAMN POWERFUL that he had TONY YAYO go GOLD!!!

let that sink in.... tony freakin yayo...

that was the unit's worse selling...

while everyone else was going multiplatinum on that label

I don't think the unit gets enough respect here, but to say MMG is better when their main guy ROSS can't even touch Gold, I mean...

I don't care what era it is, 10 years haven't even passed so save the excuses!

5 star thread and I think Yayo is platinum now

 

[Prince.Skeletor]

Yayo had more fans when he was in jail then when he came out and started making music

50 and the unit were promoting him alot with the Free Yayo buzz

And everyone was like "Yayo a real nikka" and said he'd be ill

And when finally got out they made the wrong decisions but still made mad money

Here's the thing about 50

He has incredible talent, but after GRODT he quickly... too quickly, became a businessman
And he started tackling music from a business perspective instead of a creative artistic one.
But music should is not an animal that can be tamed like that
Or else that's what you'll get... tamed music

What's that Tony Yayo verse where he references the Virginia Tech shooter? Anybody got that track?
