50 cent- Ayo technology. JT on the hook. Timbo with the beat. I thought for sure that was 50 come back song.


I knew it wasn't gonna make a dent on the urban scene unless the label pushed it all the way down our throats.

but I thought it would've been big with the TRL crowd.


Huh?

That went #5 and is one of 50's biggest hits overseas

That's song was huge


:ehh:

Father stretch my hands and Formation felt like the biggest songs in the world when they dropped, TIDAL exclusivity didn't let them chart accurately

Nicki minaj's collab with Beyonce was also the biggest waste of a song I've ever seen. Social media woulda ate that up
Breh this is real. FSMH is mad. Could've been even bigger with a wider release.

should have been bigger than it was, had all the elements...album was slept on too



ehh

dr dre himself used that beat in his video just two years prior. so the luster of the beat was gone. and they basically spinned the video from that ballroom scene too.

It would've been dope if an r&b singer with some sauce re-hashed that instrumental. that could've been a smash.

A West Coast track that should've been bigger was a G'z a G remix with CaTash, Young Gotti & Snoop

Standards? You think it should've hit #1? Jesus the unrealistic expectations for 50 are crazy.

He set the bar high with GRODT. That's where record sale numbers were realer than how they do shyt today

:hubie:...don't judge

:patrice:


:ehh: Good one. I was sure this would take off
I remember when this first dropped.:yeshrug: I was like welp, there it goes.. young Diggy got his big chart topper and is gonna blow up... JoJo will hate him forever.
This song was even featured in a pretty popular commercial as I recall. Then it just fizzled away. Problem is, it was around the time Drake was taking shyt over, so it was impossible for a lightskinned sentimental rapper/singer to get anyone's attention.
Just checked...peaked at 80 overall. 11 on hip hop . I'm still shocked he can't make a dent .
This is decent too
