If Dr. Dre discovered Eminem, the rap world has since added another legend. Then, an apprentice brought out when Am gong became famous, put it to this day, whether it is fame or influence, it is also famous, he is 50 Cent.
The fact that 50 Cent "parted ways" with Ammu's Shady Records label in the past few years, although the result was regrettable, undoubtedly made 50 Cent fly higher. Of course, the mentorship and brotherhood between Amu Darya and 50 Cent will not disappear because of this (after all, the "child" has been raised, and it is time to let go).
Then, when 50 Cent first signed into the Amway label, most people only knew how many pounds his singing skills were. What really made 50 Cent famous was the album Get Rich Or Die Tryin', released in 2003.
First of all, just from the name, you can fully feel very good, after all, it is nakedly written "want money, don't die". And this album is also the most hyped work in the rap industry in the past decade since Dog's "Doggystyle" and Nas's "Illmatic" albums.
The entire album can be said to have pushed 50 Cent to a height he never expected. 50 Cent's rap skills and musical rhythms work seamlessly together, which not only makes the song "In Da Club" on the album invincible in popularity, but also the songs "P.I.M.P" and "21 Question" are considered to have the flavor of Tupac or Biggie's early works.
His songs "U Not Like Me" and "Many Men", which are performed in a half-chant, half-sung manner, add a touch of melancholy and mournfulness to his rap style that sounds like a lazy voice. Coupled with the connection and integration of compact and diversified elements in the song, people are even more evocative after listening to it.
But having said that, you might think that 50 Cent's debut is not enough to debut albums by rap giants such as Dog Ye, Nas, and Wu Tang. However, this does not prevent 50 Cent from not only establishing itself as a preeminent in the rap industry, but also shooting the film of the same name in 2005. All in all, it's a record made with great care.
On February 7, the 14th year of the release of the album "Get Rich Or Die Tryin", the album has sold more than 14 million today. 50 Cent himself, then, celebrated the album's 14th anniversary on social networks and explained why he called the album a classic.
Finally, Xiaobian hopes that one day 50 Cent and Ammu can cooperate again, and the two generals will work together to kill the current bad rap atmosphere!
