If it was more 50 then why he didn’t have the longevity in his career?
50's longevity slowed down cuz he literally beefed with every hot NY artist at the time (Jada, Fat Joe, Cam & Dipset) and oversaturated himself. Nigga had video games & movies.
Think about it. From 2003 - 2007 he never gave the public a chance to miss him. So by the time he went against Ye in 07 they wanted something new. That was the beginning of the end. Then the Ross beef backfired on him & he was outta here musically.
I like Ross' discography more than 50s overall but 50's peak was insane. You could not escape G Unit, movies, video games, clothes.
Nigga gave Tony Yayo hits. Thats crazy.
Pot and Kettle.
50's solo single "I Get It In" charted higher than Ross's singles on DTR which had features from John Legend, Ye, Wayne, and T-Pain in the same year.
I Get It In is a classic

The Ross beef backfires on 50? Ross being a cop?

Yea the beef backfired on 50 cuz Ross was a cop but no one gave a s*** enough to turn their back on Ross. He literally got more popular the year after (2010 was the year of BMF)
Ross fans really the worst. They swear that nigga is legendary smh
im a fan of both guys, prob a fan of 50 more if i had to choose, but ross has a great catalog and still puts forth effort into his music. he went on quite the run in the early 2010s as well.
his 2009-2014 run is great
2009 - deeper than rap
2010 - albert anastasia EP, teflon don, ashes to ashes
2011- self made vol 1
2012 - god forgives i dont, self made 2, rich forever, black bar miztvah
2013 - self made vol 3
2014 - mastermind
Why do people ride for 50 so hard when Nelly had the same career?
Horrible post
50 is on one of the biggest hits of the year
That’s the only reason he added his verse on the woo cause he knew it was a hit
He shoulda put a verse on gangstas but 50 cent don’t care enough

Thank you. This thread is pointless cuz it's 50 fans acting like Ross' 2010s run wasnt fire & it's Ross fans acting like 50's peak wasn't legendary

You can’t compare the two is the point.
50 was the biggest artist (not rapper) in the world while Ross was hoping for scraps from Aubrey.

Some of Ross' best songs didnt even have Drake on them tho this take is lazy

Yes which are features for other artists.

Goal posts being moved like crazy first it was he's waiting on scraps from Aubrey (nevermind that when Ross first blew up Drake wasnt even an established artist) to this lmao a good chunk of his features are folks on hooks or something.
50 impact & his highs are definitely higher than Ross, but Ross also never dropped something as disappointing as Curtis either.

How is it goal post being moved
Ross’ best songs are are features for other artists or his songs with Aubrey.
He blew up with Hustlin which is off the top of my head the only solo Ross song that did anything (I’m probably wrong but meh)
Curtis was only disappointing cause people were expecting something from Fif. No one has that high (or any let’s be honest) for Ricky.

Goal posts being moved because your initial comment made it seem like Ross' career is dependent on Drake when that's not necessarily the case.
Curtis had an Eminem feature where he was rapping about literally pissing and s***ting on some woman, as well as the weak ass Amusement Park single which was basically Candy Shop pt 2 with Six Flags metaphors.... Straight to The Bank which was meh, not to mention the Nicole Scherzinger and Young Buck collab which was kinda like ???
And a Robin Thicke feature which was kinda redundant seeing as how it came right after Ayo Technology which had the other more popular white boy R&B singer. That album was a mess no matter how you slice it.
And (through 2010-2012 especially) Ross had all the hype and expectations in the world, especially off them 2010-2011 singles.
