I just want to give KTT a glimpse of what 2003 was like when 50 cent was at the peak of popularity, you could not have escaped him he was on every commercial MTV BET even on Cartoon Network at the night

This commercial used to play nonstop on TV cross promo with reebok and vitamin water

Imagine seeing this commercial on TV for no reason

They even had jay z freestlying crossbraning s carter and g unit shoes

Massacre tracks playing during the ad

50 Cent video game commercial that used to play every f***ing 10 minutes (niggas was giving away a flat screen tv and a ps2 for a game lol)

This was when he "falling off"

This nigga signed MOP Mobb Deep Mase and LL Cool J signed but the deal didnt go through

Nigga had a full length movie toowith terrence howard lmao

Rappers nowadays too d***ged out to accomplish half of this and dont have the cross over appeal as 50 (last rapper to do this is drake)

Dude made a soundtrack with all original tracks and dissed ja rule on the soundtrack
No rapper at the time could have succesfully went at 50

All went downhill after the legend Kidd Kidd left

I would've thought this was a @This_My_Username thread

The night that the g unit album leaked at the same time as the black album was still the craziest leak day I've ever seen on any hip hop site

i had the g-unit reeboks when they dropped, i was so hyped

Wanna add that 50 blew up right around when cell phones could play actual music as ringtones

the amount of times I heard In Da Club against my will cus that s*** started blaring out of this exact phone

ridiculous

imagine a rapper that had
Commercial Hit Albums
He was running the streets he was dropping mixtapes
50 would be dissing niggas on mixtapes and his mixtapes used to be hosted by steve from jackass and samuel l jackson

maybe tell some stories about it?

facts lol dude was running the entire world

No one could escape G-Unit back then

Was too young to be there, would u mind tellin me a bit more bout what it was like?

Damn you old. I remember them albums but not old enough to know what a leak is lmao

Lmfao

Imagine seeing g unit mixtapes being bootlegged everywhere they used to drop G Unit Radio Mixtapes like every other month they were dropping new mixtapes with original new music and still drop fire albums

Blazing thread @op

these had so many f***ing gems on them, kids today don't even know about G-Unit Radio mixtapes

Ya I'm old as dirt. My first leak was the eminem show. Had to go to a neighbor's house to download it because he was the only one with a cable modem

💯

Imagine going to the mall as a kid and seeing 50 posters all over clothing stores

Was 2 of the most anticipated rap albums ever, and it took everyone by surprise because they leaked like a month early. The leakers got them both and put them out at the same time, late in the day when everyone was online. Every rap site crashed.

Was a great time in life. Thanks for the trip down memory lane OP

i was in elementary school, 10 years old when GRODT dropped. first album i ever listen to whole. every major radio station played in da club non stop

i was in middle school when massacre dropped. one of my homies hooked me up wit the leak before it officially dropped. first leak i ever listened to
