    I was literally just thinking about that an hour ago.

    All commercial rap would take too long but look at what 50 was responsible for alone in exactly 2 years.

    Before For Mercy
    The Hunger For More
    Straight Outta Cashville
    The Documentary
    The Massacre
    Thoughts Of A Predicate Felon
    GRODT Soundtrack

    Then you've got others like College Dropout, Late Registration, TM101, Urban Legend, The Carter 2, The Sound Of Revenge, King and many, many more.

    Look l like Roddy Rich as much as the next guy but you can't tell me rap is in good shape right now
    The s--- has been dead for a long time now

    This album is really slept on.

    It has a few too many songs. But it is very close to GRODT.

    So many classic songs
    Great production on it as well.

    Position of Power an undeniable 10/10.
    Gunz Come Out,In My Hood,Ski Maks Way,This is 50, Im supposed to Die Tonight,Hate or Love It. all brillant too. Piggy Bank great diss as well.
    God Gave My Style great soulful record.

    Disco Inferno great single too.

    The album had everything.

    You guys want to group buy this? I had the opportunity back in the Fall and I lowballed the s--- out of him with an offer lol. Like 100 or so and he told me h--- no. I didn't bother following up but I've got nothing better to do with quarantine.


    Let me know and we'll make it happen. I'm being dead serious too. No bs.

    I don't wanna sound like an old man but I really have more desire to go back to albums like this than to check out new music

    Great album.
    05-06 was such a great time in hip hop & in general life. Just really liked that era.

    The commercial music around the time was great.

    @Australia @BIGFOOT

    Financially I'm in the same boat(now unemployed) but I can do a couple hundred. This should be no problem. Let me message a few people and we'll get that the group PM going at least.

    50 was so succesful & arrogant that the industry turned on him.



    how the f--- did this flop. Perfect single.

    I can't do that much unfortunately, but i can contribute some... My boy @RTJInfinity who Ive known for a while wants to chip in too. Let's get it popping mate.

    Thanks man. It will all work out in the end.

    I can't risk working at a supermarket tbh... Wouldn't want to do that type of work tbh, but good looking out bro.

    I know for a fact he didn't like Game to begin with because of how him and his crew acted when they came through and I was pretty sure he was pissed he gave those tracks away but was asked by Dre to do it. I mean he can't really complain to Dre. His biggest hits were from him, but still that would sting me. He made those songs with the hooks

    TBH I blame 50 more than the label. He willingly gave away Hate It Or Love It, How We Do, Church For Thugs, Special and two more that I can't think of. The Massacre was great but man, what it could have been.....

    Came here to say that Curtis was the best post GRODT album. GRODT was so raw and Massacre was good but it didn't have the same feeling. Tried to make too many poppy hits. Curtis was f---ing excellent

    Timbaland production was so good in that era too.
    He had so many its in different genre's. Legendary producer, Scott Storch too around that time.

    Psycho
    Strong Enough
    The Days Went By
    Ok You're Right
    I Got Swag
