penny bro...you just made them haters look like fools.

Cant wait to read the book...i mighty get DMX's one aswell

 

[warriorinjewelz]

of course somebody would lie in a book for more money. it's all about the money

But it was funny, right? He may have spiced up a joke or whatever, but so what..they're directly from him, I assume. A ghost-writer wrote the story for several reasons, but the ideas came from him. He's funny today, and he recently wrote the book. So, the jokes you read in the book aren't from when he was five..the jokes are from him today.

But a minute ago, to talk of things that never happened was shameful......now him saying he said things he never said is ok?

I hate interesting, but made-up, stories. That's why I plan to get my hands on the book...cuz its not made-up.

I never said anything about it being made up mate.

Besides, lying about something that never happened is extremely shameful because its being fake.

That shit had me rolling, 50 lied about going to jail, plus he claimed the order of protection didn't exist! SHAMEFUL!

I think you'll find 50 did serve time.

Yeah he went to a boot camp not jail as he claimed, he still lied!

Jackson pleaded out to both cases and was hit with a concurrent sentence of 3-9 years in prison. But the wannabe star, 19 at the time, avoided hard time, instead spending only seven months in a youth "shock incarceration" boot camp in upstate Beaver Dams.

Who the fuck wants to buy a 50 cent book......

 

[Swollen_Member]

Uhm, the excerpts are funny, interesting, and the story-telling is great. So, why not buy the book? Sure, the book itself was not written by him, but who is stupid enough to believe he wrote it? His grammar, from authentic papers, is not that great, and I don't expect it to be, and that's what proves he didn't write the book, but I sure as hell believe the stories.

Why should I not believe the stories? Everything he shares can be verified with friends, family members, criminal records, people from his former neighborhood, etc. You can check his stories with anyone. Besides, lying about something that never happened is extremely shameful because its being fake.

Let me ask you this...have you ever been in the ghetto? I know for a fact a lot of parents are like that. Take, for example, my mother. We're from the f**** bottom of the gutter because we came from a warzone, literally. That's how things go in warzones, alright? This personal experience, just so you know I am not making it up.

Although 50's ghetto wasn't nearly as much of a warzone as where I am from, he still had it hard, and its not entirely unbelievable that his mother sent him back, because I know mothers like that.

I no longer live in a ghetto (damn, you can't even call where I am from a ghetto cuz of how bad things are) in case you're wondering how I am using a computer.



Because you know nothing about the ghetto does not mean its fiction.



I hate interesting, but made-up, stories. That's why I plan to get my hands on the book...cuz its not made-up.



Exactly. That's how things are, but most kids on Street Hop know nothing about real life.

OMG! I can't believe it, we've been blessed with someone from the actual ghetto on TB!!! Please tell us what's right and wrong! O mighty wise one please share with us yours and 50's pain!

shut up you idiot. He didnt try glorify it..he is telling you where he came from..dont be a dickhead.

[Frank Grimes]

hey btw, here's an idea, why dont you all go by chopper reids book, you want Real stories over commercially glamorized book by a cruddy rapper. hear choppers stories about brutal violence, murder, and an extemerly hard life from aust's toughest crim/comical nutcase, it will make these so-called "gangsta" rappers look like penguin's. pick up the book, trust me it will top 50's buy a trillion. i read it last month.

 

[Pittsey]

Apparently this book is now titled "Once Upon a Time in Southside Queens".

If anyone cares.

 

[yayo]

Didn't it already come out though? How could they change the name?

Reprint and shelf?

You are unbelievable. He didn't make those jokes back then, but this is how people speak. You must not understand that. For example, someone may say "So, I said to him..." adding to whatever that person said. It doesn't mean that the story itself was made up or the content that matters.

OMG! I can't believe it, we've been blessed with someone from the actual ghetto on TB!!! Please tell us what's right and wrong! O mighty wise one please share with us yours and 50's pain!

I said I cme from a warzone, not a ghetto. 50 Cent came from a ghetto. I never said coming from a warzone is a great thing and never glorified what comes with it. I don't see how anyone could.

If you still don't know what's up, go on Google and do a search on what goes on in Africa. Certain places are a total mess, as where I am from is. The only difference between where I am from Iraq are the daily suicide bombings and the US military being present.

Chopper is a story teller too though. He glamorizes the stuff he done. Then he exagerates it and puts his innocent twist on it. Everyone is the same, we all want to sound better than we are and if we're trying to sell a product, give it a little ooooomph.
