50 cent is the don king to hip hop, he doesn’t throw any hands and don’t know why hes there sometimes, but hes so entertaining.

Very well put , what i get out of it is 50 cent is a lot more intelligent as he may come off lyrically. His approach to how he promotes himself or is seen compared to others makes him stand out , and no matter how much you dislike 50, its amusing to see how he gets under everyone’s skin and comes out on top. 50 cent a genius MC or a remarkable promoter. Good article Mr. brown.

It’s interesting. You all should Youtube his I-tunes bonus content from BISD. There’s a 3 part interview with him. Given the fact that content is solely created for his own purposes – versus a journalist’s intentions – gives you a perfect platform to analyze 50s intended messages.

Heard a 50 cent interview over the weekend on Big Tigger’s show. And besides the fact that I personally think his music is irrelevant, I was impressed by how effective he is at getting his point across. 50 Cent is a media machine, smart and tactful — not unlike a successful politician.

Way to break it down. No aspect of pop culture and public persona is above or below this basic formula of media training and not many people realize that their ‘opinions’ are simply a regurgitation of its effectiveness.

What’s amazing is that it’s so simple. It seems obvious once it’s laid out in such a straight forward a fashion by someone the likes of Bizz, who is a media machine in his own right, but the fact of the matter is that the reason you havnt noticed it just shows how tight 50s game is. I mean, all this sounds hella easy on paper but the impressive part is that 50 can pull it off without it being blatant. The man has the ability to use his swag to camoflauge these techniques and still entertain the shit outa you while doing it. Props to Bizz for this article.. Keep em comin! Peace
