holy SH*T 50 cent???

I think some of you got a seriously conservative oldschool rap obsession. And 50 cent VS Eminem? Give me a break. Em.
If gonna compare 50 undeground stuff, compare it with Em's underground stuff. There is no contest, Em is faster and clearer, and blows 50 out of the water. The best thing that ever happen to 50, was Eminem calling him his favorite on the radio, creating a buzz. Then he signed him.

50 was never underground. I'm just talking about his older stuff. Way to repeat "blow out of the water." You shouldn't use clarity as a way to compare, because who can't understand 50 Cent?? I don't really care about speed either. That would make Twista or Layzie Bone top lyricists. 50 is just more enjoyable. In his prime he flowed better (to better beats). Eminem is a better freestyler, even though they're both not good. It's a matter of opinion but Eminem appeals more to white people plain and simple, hence the reason he became so successful. Nothing special about him at all. His content is pretty much bitching and whining.
I dislike rap as I explained before. Although I would consider Eminem a talented artist. He comes up with some funny shit. His songs are pretty good IMO.
That couldn't be more wrong....
During the next two years, 50 returned to the rap underground where he began. He formed a collective (G-Unit, which also featured Lloyd Banks and Tony Yayo), worked closely with producer Sha Money XL (who had also been signed to JMJ around the same time that 50 had), and began churning out mixtape tracks (many of which were later compiled on Guess Who's Back? in 2002). These mixtape recordings (many of which were hosted by DJ Whoo Kid on CDs such as No Mercy, No Fear and Automatic Gunfire), earned the rapper an esteemed reputation on the streets of New York. Some of them featured 50 and his G-Unit companions rapping over popular beats, others mocked popular rappers (namely Ja Rule, who quickly became an arch-rival), and a few discussed his shooting. This constant mixtape presence throughout 2000-2002 garnered industry attention as well as street esteem, particularly when Eminem declared on a radio show his admiration for 50. A bidding war ensued, as Em had to fend off numerous other industry figures, all of whom hoped to sign 50, driving up the signing price into the million-plus figures in the process and slowly moving the rapper into the up-and-coming spotlight once again as word spread.
is he not even the "orignal 50 cent"? I thought that I heard something about the "real guy" was a well known thug from the neighborhood who died, then Curtis took his name and rep.

So according to that, G-Unit is considered underground. Nice sources you got there
His first appearence was on an Onyx track and his first LP was Power of the Dollar, all mainstream shit son. He was never an underground rapper. Not even close.

Not anymore, they're not.
So doing mix tapes with no label is not underground, huh? Ok, Russell Simmons.
who fucking cares. the rap scene is practically a music version of days of our lives.
oh sorry, did i say music?

They never were at all period, give it up. G-Unit was formed around the same time 50 dropped "Get Rich or Die Trying," which was easily the most popular rap album of 2002. And 50 Cent was extremely popular way before then, even as far back as 1999-2000 maybe earlier. You cited Whoo Kid and Jam Master J affiliated mixtapes. About as mainstream as it gets. Everyone does mixtapes dude, it's pretty much standard. You can find Eminem on Green Lantern and Clinton Sparks tapes, doesn't mean he's underground. Just because 50 wasn't as popular earlier on doesn't mean he was underground at all. He just straight up was never underground lol.

Hey, for those who like Hardcore music try Jedi Mind Tricks and Necro
although I hate hardcore music and I also like both of them...so I dunno
Necro - Beautiful music for you to die to
"Don't rap, stab yourself to the beat instead, don't impress me with your raps, impress me by being dead. Ill be impressed when you're bleeding red, cause at least then you can say you have done something I haven't done yet."
great track
also
Necro - Dead body disposal
"Let's talk about dead body disposal
My proposal take the corpse to the bathtub
And drain the blood out of the bastard
Strip ya self new first so you don't get blood on ya new shirt
And cut the fuckin' corpse up like a butcher to meat kid
And put the pieces inside trash bags
So she'll be wreaking like a fags ass
With flesh covered in leeches
And throw the bags away
In various trash bins in different areas
This shit's hilarious
Nobody notices some asshole taking out the garbage
Who would know it's a carcass?
Even if they were focusing 'cause the plastic bag is dark kid
And even the nosy bitch wouldn't open it, it make no sense
And if you do it just before a trash pick up
The bodies hauled away before it decays and stinks up
It won't be noticed but literally turns up other shit
And ya bag is in the middle buried right under it
Especially if you double-bagged it
Ya victim'll stay a faggot in fragments forever stagnet
[Chorus]
Dead Body Disposal
For those that don't know what to do after ya foes are killed
Shit could get messy when the blood flow spills
You never know when you might need to know skills
In body disposal it's no frills
Dead Body Disposal
Are you interested in hearing my proposal?"

Necro is hilarious, he is a wack job if he isn't trying to be funny, or even still his lyrics are sooooo far out there, but he cracks me up
how about some MC Paul Barman....He is always good for a laugh, I had an album in my car when my dad was driving it and he asked me who it was and said he was laughing his ass off
Read carefully. When 50 cent released Guess Who's back, it was an independant, self financed mix tape. Just because it's popular dosen't mean it's not a underground release. Also, you'll hear them mentioning G-Unit many of times on this underground release.
But, I'll concede. You win.

I agree, he also did a track with Onyx sometime in the mid/late 90's called 'React'
he had such a small role in it though, only spitting a few bars, but it was him and he wasn't even big enough to have a full verse

and speaking of Onyx and hardcore rap, they go hand in hand, I love(d) Onyx! Sitcky Fingaz!
MOP used to do some good hardcore rap too, I haven't followed them since they signed with G Unit though, those fuckers....
also Gravediggaz who were signed under a label with the Wu Tang Clan
BANG YOUR HEAD!

Who You Rep With
etc.
All were tracks on that Guess Who's Back tape. All were heavily promoted in the mainstream, even in magazines that I still own such as The Source. All were also put on his LP albums around the same period. Nothing about it is underground, regardless of what label it was released on. Krumbsnatcha, Smoke Bulga, Esoteric, etc. real underground. 50 has always pretty much been pop.
Apparently we have different views on underground, even after I put the link in.
But here you can buy 50 Cent's album, 50 Cent Underground and Unreleased.
So not only is rap more unoriginal than ever, the rappers can't even think of their own stage names now.

Yes you are looking at the business aspect of it, I'm talking style wise. I could care less about when and how it was released, 50 has always been a mainstream rapper. I've been listening to rap since I was 6 or 7 and 50 was just simply not what I considered underground ever in his career.
That link you just sent me mostly has his hugest hits and then unreleased shit they advertised as underground to attempt to get 50 street cred. Trust me I know, it's a tactic when a rapper goes too pop. Pan something off as "underground" or a "freestyle" when it's not, to advertise an artist in a different aspect. Guaranteed half of those "underground" tracks were produced after Candy Shop and In the Club. My buddy worked for Clinton Sparks at MixUnit.com - The World's Largest Hip-Hop Store - Music + Fashion + Entertainment and half of the mixtapes on there are misadverstised using all sorts of methods.
Just read the tracks you sent me in that link -- Irv Gotti, Ja Rule diss, Lil Kim, 2Pac, G-Unit, J-Lo, Lloyd Banks, Biggie, Justin, plus all his hits...it's one big pool of mainstream mess. Typical of many mixtapes.
