I was gonna post a new topic, but I thought 4 on 50 Cent in less than a week was enuff, so check out this part of an analysis I thought y'all should see.

Old Head (11:22:15 PM): What you think of that "A Baltimore Love Thing?"
Young Cat (11:22:50 PM): I don’t really understand the song
Old Head (11:22:57 PM): LOL!!!!!
Young Cat (11:22:57 PM): I see he got a love thing
Young Cat (11:23:02 PM): but why he called her a Dirty bitch?
Old Head (11:23:20 PM): I see why 50 keeps it dumbed down.
Old Head (11:23:32 PM): The kiddies can't get it!
Old Head (11:24:01 PM): 50 is playing the role of a drug
Old Head (11:24:10 PM): and the girl is the addict.
Young Cat (11:24:55 PM): Ohhh
Young Cat (11:25:07 PM): So the old guys get it
Old Head (11:25:45 PM): The old SMART guys. ‘Fiddy’ is no spring chicken himself.
Old Head (11:26:19 PM): He knows that you guys aren't quite there yet even though we listened to cats that were saying big words in Hip-Hop. OH WELL.
Young Cat (11:26:41 PM): I’m mad u try’na play my peers and me
Young Cat (11:26:44 PM): We understand
Old Head (11:28:13 PM): I'm just saying...when we were listening to rap - Kool G Rap, Rakim, Kane, KRS-One...they were spitting really deep stuff. They really put their words together. It was less about the party, more about lyrics.

They gave it a 3 1/2 stars. Would y'all say that's honestly true. I would agree. I listen to 50 and think "Why is this so hot to people?" And I get it, but then I think about "Look at what was dope in the earlier years."
