    A lot of people aren't really familiar with 50 Cent material released before his major debut Get Rich Or Die Tryin. I recently dived into his mixtapes and must say there's some really good stuff.

    Here's a list of the projects he did.

    Albums:
    Power Of The Dollar

    (Originally meant to be released as 50 Cent's debut studio album: however, its release was cancelled after 50 Cent was involved in a shooting two months before the album was set to release.)

    Mixtapes:
    Guess Who's Back?
    50 Cent Is the Future (With G-Unit)
    No Mercy, No Fear (With G-Unit)
    God's Plan (With G-Unit)

    You can see early on that he was talented and had an exceptionally good ear for music and hooks. When you listen to some of the stuff that's on there, it's really not a surprise that he became so popular once he got that major label push.

    Anyway, post some 50 tracks (Pre GRODT)

    I'll start off with this absolute classic

    Check out the Automatic Gunfire tape with G-Unit. It was part 4 of the 5 part G-Unit mixtape series before the G-Unit Radio mixtapes and one month before the release of GRODT. Many standout tracks like b--- b---, Round Here, Doing My Own Thing, G-Unit Anthem (50's verse is great), Cross My Path and the original releases of In Da Hood and I Smell p----. Also, some funny skits too mocking Ja Rule since this was during the height of their feud.

    Yup, it was on the No Mercy No Fear mixtape. Later ended up on the 8 Mile soundrack.

    Another gem from Power Of The Dollar. Shame it's so short.

    So many classics posted. Love this thread! Pre GRODT 50 is goat.

    Power of the dollar and guess who’s back are 50’s best projects. I personally rank them higher than GRODT but I understand those who disagree.

    Don’t sleep on the repercussions. If a nickel bag sold in the park I want in on it, the bs I’m on right now n----- I been on it!
