BigSqwert Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Sep 11, 2007 -> 07:13 PM) Everything I Am is phenomenal and IMO the best. I also dig Barry Bonds but that's cause I'm a Lil Wayne fanboy. Good Morning is also a fantastic intro-to-the-CD song. I'd agree with "Everything I Am" as being the best track.

Kid Gleason Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 (edited) Does anybody else hate the fact that he writes it as "50" but pronounces it "Fiddy"? What kind of stupid-a** moron does that? Seriously. Has anybody ever said to him "look, you can call yourself 'Fiddy' if you want, but that number is pronounced FIFty. Quit trying to make kids more stupid, and just call yourself either 'FIFty' or call yourself 'FIDDy' and quit using the numbers you stupid idiot"? Just that little thing is enough to keep me from EVER listening to anything he does. Idiot. Edited September 12, 2007 by Kid Gleason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Gleason Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Dumbest commercial ever. Like I said in another post, there is NO WAY for those guys to have downloaded the song to their phone without knowing what is being said. IT'S THE TITLE OF THE SONG!!! As for proper pronunciation being key to popular music and good music, no it is not. BUT when you are saying "50" is pronounced "Fiddy", you instantly get the "idiot" card, IMO.

Now this is laughable. Sorry man, but if you think 50 is the better rapper, then you don't know Hip-Hop music. And I'm not even gonna bother commenting on the beats.

greasywheels121 Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 As alluded to earlier in the thread, Kanye's got a pretty solid lead going. I will be shocked if 50 lives up to his word, if this remains the case. http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/K/KAN...N=ENTERTAINMENT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry man, but if you think 50 is the better rapper, then you don't know Hip-Hop music. And I'm not even gonna bother commenting on the beats. Really now? Thats pretty funny. Kanye made most of his traction as a producer, because frankly, his flow isnt as good as other rappers. On top of that, 50's first album sold 3 times as much as Kanye's His second album, more than 3 times that of Kanye. Kanye is a good artist for people who shy away from the brashness of an artist like 50 cent, and is brilliant in his own way. But you will be very hard pressed to find people that are ACTUALLY immersed in the hip hop world to say that Kanye is the better rapper. He is def the better producer, but that tracks are better when someone like Jay-Z does the track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should check out some samples of some early Pink Floyd and see if that gives a good representation of the actual track Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
