Off With 50 Cents Head!

I have to admit that I'm a fan of 50 Cent's MUSIC, not so much of him. I agree, the title "get rich or die tryin'" does give a negative message. I wish that he would explain that the lifestyle he raps about is for entertainment only. Living the lifestyle he promotes will get you put in jail, or you will die trying to live that way!

According to the results of the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NEAP) released on October 19, most of our nation’s 8th graders are performing at or above the basic achievement levels in reading and math—some better than others, whites much better than blacks.

Twenty nine percent of the students in public schools perform below the basic performance level in reading while the remaining 71 percent score at or above the basic level. In mathematics, 32 percent perform below basic while the remaining 68 percent perform at or above.

When race or ethnicity is thrown is into the mix, the results become quite disturbing. Only 19 percent of white students perform below basic in reading, while an alarming 49 percent of black students score below the basic achievement level. In mathematics, 21 percent of white students perform below basic, while 59 percent of black students perform below basic.

Look I understand what eveyone is saying, but you have to balance. And you definitely right about MA$E. I just don't see the reason of keeping beef alive, why can't he just make his music and form unity among ny rappers. Like Jay-z said that beef **** is wack! You have to be intelligent to do what jay-z, 50 and others are doing. The point I'm trying to get across let the community understand that you are rapping about your struggle, and that the community don't have to do what he did to get there. I'm thinking outside of the box, of course white people are going to throw money at 50 Cent because they going capitalize on him and at the same time deminish the black community. It's bad enough that black males who are trying to make it in this society have to go against the stereotype that America have set for black males. And Ebonne, I hope he is a gentleman to his fans because we giving him our money. You seen how he treated Vivica Fox, he's not that much of a gentleman if he calling women b*!tches and etc. I listen to beat of his music I don't pay attention to the words or him as a person he's to arrogant. Eminem founded him and he's trying to out shine him. Lloyd Banks considering leaving the group because he is fearing for his life. Now why would you want to be around someone like that? Also, that's a valid point about the community is letting the music and the movies raise the children, but what is the solution for stopping that? I'm thinking stop producing so much violence even LL Cool J said put a less violence in the music for the shorties. These are pioneers in the rap game if they saying 50 Cent is to much then he needs to self Evaluate himself. G-Unit is fading fast and I predict no one will be saying G-Unit at the end of next year. I'm not hating, that's just how I see it.

Excellent point Avia, I agree with you totally.

I like 50 cents, I know where he is coming from at this point in his life. Great to see You post your convictions Bro.
Keep being You.
