52 Pac Cent

[imported_MAKaveli_10]

I can see some of your points. But 2pac had the musical talent to back him up. 2pac was a poet while 50 cent is a supposed gansta. I think 50 has some good music but not the musical talent 2pac had.

I will be the first to constructively hate on 50 Cent here concerning Pac.

I honestly used to be a 50 fan. back in the days of, you know, Power of the Dollar, the 2001 EP, How to Rob, all that stuff around late 90's to early 00's.

not any more. he emulates Pac, yes, but very poorly, and honestly it makes me sick. his work ethic is better than most rap artists, I'll give him that - he puts out a lot of mixtape tracks, freestyles, etc, which is kinda respectable but not really considering none of them have a good message AND he used to do a LOT more than he does now. he changed for the much worse after he joined Shady and it's been downhill since then.

think about Pac now. not only did he do a ton of songs, but he made songs with a GOOD MESSAGE. the bigger he got, the MORE he was in the studio and his quality songs never got worse as time went on. his beef was because he truly thought Biggie KNEW WHO TRIED TO KILL HIM and didn't tell him.... remind me of the basis behind 50's extreme hate for Ja?

also, where are the songs that 50 has made with any decently positive, progressive message behind it? all I hear when I listen to the album is negative vulgar garbage, from one club song to the next beef song to a b/s love song. where's the artistic quality here? we know that he's "hard" and that he isn't scared to kill people, that he sold/sells drugs, whatever. what about talking about kids in the ghetto who have nothing? what about talking to POOR PEOPLE? what about asking God for forgiveness?

he tries to emulate Pac, this is very true. but true artists and real people don't need to emulate anybody.

I love pac, but some of these things dont make sense. Yes 50 does not make as much music as he did before, who does? He did that amount of music, even after being signed, to keep the hype goin (3 albums in 4 months). Why would he do that now? That would be excessive exposure and make him less attractive to the public, it dont make business sense. Pac made all those songs because he knew he was going to die, its obvious in his songs. And no 50 is not pac, he could make more positive songs, we'll have to see if he grows as an artist, he played it safe on this album. One positive song is "God gave me style", but this is not the point. There two different rappers and people- 2pac was in another league. lol@ post sayin 50 bites pac more than ja

yo i think pac had no time for comical jokes he was an attension getter when he did that xxx how do u want it video it was to show u honesty of what he was saying not to make u feel he was doing it for money cause he had something with somebody calling him fake and if he was to put out a 24 hour fukin groupie it was a bad rep for his image which he wanted u to see when u look at him as a warrior. xxx how do u want it video and disco inferno video yup it is the same thing but 50 what does disco inferno have to do with porn gurls prostitute shake there asses while pac was entertain u for a lust of how he felt with the song title . how do u want it

 

[obwans]

its obvious that 50 cent is losing much respect from many Pac fans for various reasons. if u ask me, 50's probly thinkin, hmmm, Pac did it, so fuck it. He's doin lots of things that would compare him to 2pac.

yeah me to cause he had so much reapect and after watching that ressurection man pac was powerful cause when i do something similar to what he did i say fuck it man pac did it

 

[ManiacDego]

50 is cool if u have a gurlfriend, when u go to clubs and shit
but pac can u give a way more than that, teh passion the workethic
a feelin for whatz goin on on the streets, all the real shit

but if u stoned and wit friends, 50s style is tired, alwayz tha same *mumbling*
cant lsten, cant concentratin on the shit he "try" to say..its not interesting
everybody know whaz goin on in the club
no need for introduce

how do you listen deeply to 50 Cent?

haha this dude really is Sun Tzu

 

[Makaveli2k4]

Pac = intelligence
50 = ignorance

Pac was ignorant too

 

[majlo]

Regarding 50 I just wanna say that he looks really nice wearin that fur coat in candy shop...like a real pimp hehe, this is how I think

P.S. Pac was ignorant?? hell no, I never agree with that, he knew a lot 'bout different things and world, that's why his songs have such strong message, ignorant person would never make such ambitious and valuable music.

 

[JDeez]

Pac was ignorant too

How so? I'm curious.

 

[majlo]

How so? I'm curious.

Maybe he hadn't graduated but it doeasn'y mean he was ignorant. he'd read a lot, he'd experienced a lot. How could he been ignorant? If he'd been ignorant he wouldn't have spoken of that what he had been speaking of throughout his life.

 

[IMAN_B]

I thought it was a clever title.

Anyways, 2Pac is too much of a strong influence to these rappers. It's like his influence is a weapon of mass destruction that shouldn't fall into the hands of people who aren't going to use it for what's right.

50 has the fanbase now, he should now use his audience to do positive things.

^^
I agree!

 

[ganderson]

50 has street smarts using events in his life to create a better way of living for him and his son and rap music is that way. all he has to do is tell storys of what he's seen/done and with dres beats he cant really go wrong. pac was on a whole other level he seen the bigger picture and used his fame to show the wrong that were done to him, his family/friends his people in the hope that the goverment would stop it. at the end of the day they two rappers are tottaly different and so are the times they were livin in u can't compare them there are omly simaralities between them.

 

[roadsense]

the only similarities I see between pac and 50cent Is I think there both black.


its like comparing a mercedez to a kia. FYI 2pac is the mercedez
