New Music: Soulja Boy Tell 'Em feat 50 Cent - Mean Mug
I don't understand why this record exists! On a semi-related note though, I am reading 50 & Robert Greene's The 50th Law book and to my surprise, I really like it!

New Music: Cee-Lo feat. 50 Cent - F**k You (Freestyle)
Cee-Lo feat. 50 Cent - F**k You (Freestyle) [usershare mp3 download link]
Shoulda seen this one coming with the viral buzz Cee-Lo's new anthem is building. Never underestimate 50's ability to spot and exploit a trend for his own benefit.

New Music: E-40 - B-tch (Remix) feat 50 Cent & Too $hort
Another old (in blog time) one. Feel like cats didn't make as big a fuss over this as they shoulda, but I also know a lot of cats think 50 is totally done and could give a f-ck what he does nowadays even if its hot. What y'all think of this remix (original version in the video above) though?

Music video: 50 Cent - Do You Think About Me
I happen to love this track and think 50's Before I Self Destruct album is really good, but this actually might be too smooth for radio, even in this current Drake "Best I Ever Had" era of hip hop. Disagree?

New music: 50 cent - "Do You Think About Me"
New video:
And Live on Jimmy Kimmel:
As I mused on twitter, 50 delivers arguably the second best album of his major label career and it bricks. And Wale bricks with what I think is a tremendous debut album for him? WTF is going on?
I could try to make an argument about label marketing might triumphing over artistic merit nowadays but both these dudes are signed to Interscope, the record label that has come to epitomize the modern major label 'machine' and all the promotion & marketing resources that implies. Besides, they both had really solid marketing pushes for their album launches from what I could tell so either I'm off in my judgment of the music (and I don't think I am), Interscope fell off or there's something else going on here. Rizoh has some theories on what happened to Wale and Eskaygloats about comments on the 50 situation here.
So here comes 50's new single. I love this song, its R&B/hip hop done right to my ears, but momentum seems to be going against 50 at this point and I don't see this song turning it around for him. Disagree?

AP video: 50 cent Goes Gangster in Dead Man Running
The plug:
"50 Cent teams up with Danny Dyer to cause some trouble in crime thriller Dead Man Running. In his British movie debut, 50 gives the lowdown on playing a violent gangland loan shark."
Why is 50 in a British gangster flick??

New music: 50 Cent - "Flight 187"
Speaking of 50....
First single from his 50th Law mixtape presumably promoting his new (but way-late, IMHO) 50th Law book.
BTW: why does 50 rap like Fergie nowadays?? MP3 link when I can find one....

New video: Eminem - "We Made You"
Hot or not? Me personally, this video made me laugh in parts but it's basically the same first single Em's been putting out his entire career: the big pop record for which he makes a humorous video skewering, easy-to-bash, pop culture and music figures. His spit game is still immaculate but its kind of wasted here. I expected more/better....
Here's a link to watch the video for non-US viewers.

Yo, 50 is KILLIN' this dude. I don't really condone the f-ckery or take it seriously but between the hilarious stunts he's pulled on the BAWS and his inept responses, I've been kept in stitches the past month or however long this nonsense has been going now.
