Ross clowning 50 for not being able to make a hit record is kind of funny and cringe at the same time.
The lack of self awareness with rappers be hilarious lmao like Nigga what was the last hit YOU had?
2010 hahaha, the guy is a joke.
Nelly came from a Midwestern city without any co-signs from other artist.
50 had everything lined up for him, being from NY and had Dre and Em backing him. And he still couldn’t last past 2 albums even with handily ending Ja’s career. To me he fumbled along the way because he should be considered top 5 with what he had.
50 was boycotted by pretty much everyone in NY, he dissed everyone when he released how to rob and had a beef with Supreme. Also Irv and Ja told other record label to not sign him. 50 basically blew up on his own when he released them mixtapes.

His come up before Aftermath is a different discussion. For the most part no one knew 50 story besides getting shot 9 times at the time across the country.The mixtapes got him on Aftermath, but that did not make him a superstar.
I love Ross, butt these aren't iconic songs that white people/mainstream knows
Idc about what white people likes tbh

50 had record labels lined up before signing with Em, he signed with aftermath well cause its aftermath. You can also look at all the artists shady record co signed or supported. Em been supporting Royce for 20 years, made a album with him, put him on his albums, yet royce still cant make a hit on his own. Same goes for D12, obie trice and pretty much most artists in shady records.

50 perfected the gangsta image and being from New York (which played a part of labels being lined up), which is what sold in early 2000s especially. If he didn’t have Em and Dre yeah he would’ve had success like Cam or someone like that. But a superstar? I’m sorry but that alignment with Aftermath put him on that level. Which I’m not knocking because when it comes to business decisions he is smart, I give him credit for that.

Imma be frank with you, i dont think you know what youre talking about. 50 had hits because he was talented as f***. Thats why he had so many solo hits and sold so many records. Thats why he influenced rappers like kanye, drake, dababy, pop smoke etc. Ross had the whole game behind his back. Wayne, jay, kanye all co signed him. Its a big mystery how he hasnt been able to score a top 10 hit on his own.

That’s fine if you think that. I will also say that you keep changing the subject trying to prove a point you don’t have. Now your bringing up influence which has nothing to do with the topic. I also have never said 50 wasn’t talented, so your comprehension is off there as well. I’m losing patience you no avy niggas kill me.

People just be loud and wrong. To say 50 of all people had everything lined up for him to succeed is hilarious

I’m still waiting for someone to deny the impact Em and Dre had on 50s superstar status instead of giving outlandish posts.
Why do people ride for 50 so hard when Nelly had the same career?
Lol...the f*** kind of logic is this?
DMX had a 5 year run but people still care about him which is why the Ruff Ryders documentary was a huge hit on BET.
Lauryn Hill's a one album wonder and people still talk about her being the GOAT female rapper.
Pac and Biggie been dead since the 90's and people still talk about them.
If 50 is able to have more diehard stans than Nelly today, that says more about Nelly than 50 tbh.

It's like niggas forget Obie Trice, Cashis, and Yelawolf exist. They all had direct help from Eminem yet never came remotely close to 50's buzz.
If it was as simple as Em and Dre pushing people, Shady and Aftermath records would've been found more superstars than just Kendrick. 50 was literally the mixtape king before he got signed to them.

Lol those artist you mentioned had serious reasons why their run ended in the first place, not a fair comparison to 50.
People like 50 now for his personality not for the music, if they did then he would have a hit.

If what you're saying is true, why aren't Ross's songs getting remixed by young rappers today like 50's?
Why do many young rappers in NYC still pay homage to 50(even more so than Hov) while young FL rappers barely praise Ross?

The influence talk again
The influence talk again
First you say 50 is loved for his personality not for his music then we show you rappers that were directly influenced by him then you say "influence talk again".

Damn all 2020 songs 50 still got influence on lock
Ross couldn't dream of putting together a 3 song run better than any 3 on GTODT. Dude is delusional.
Yeah I can't recall anything memorable from Black Market
I can only remember that trash hat he got on the cover lol

It’s obvious 50 has influence, no need to keep bringing that up. And also people loved his music from 20 years ago. The difference now between him and someone like Nelly is he has a strong Internet personality.
Power is on like its 7th season. Rick Ross made a brief appearance in the show magic city 2nd season. It was subsequently canceled after.

But then they say he has no influence? The nigga was sampled multiple times in 2020
They favorite rappers love 50 i dont know why they continue to hit.
