He got rich and tried too hard. Obsessed with album sales, he ditched what put him on in favor of poppy singles to push records. It's what does Kanye West in nowadays. You talk about cash, cars, and mansions but when you came on it was about the hustle, trying to make it, and so on.

What's fukked up is if you keep Power Of The Dollar, Guess Who's Back, Get Rich it's all a solid release of albums. But then you get Candy Shop, AYO Technology, and him shoveling those songs in after those releases, attempting to capture the lightning twice.

EDIT: I'm also intrigued with the tech behind the SMS line. I'm gonna look that up.

He sold to many shoes, it had a negative impact on his image. He should've stuck to limited edition releases like Ye:sas2:

This song is off his "wackest album" so that means this is 50 at one of his worst.
