50 Cent Says We Are Too Focused on The Numbers (Wow!)
June 12th, 2009 | Omar West | 18 comments |
What I fell in love with and inspired me to get into hip-hop is dwindling away. I’d like to be a representation of that, because there isn’t much of that left. I think people are so conscious of the numbers they’re not being creative anymore.

You’ve got to be f*cking kidding me, really 50? I distinctly remember you saying that it was all about the numbers a couple years ago, saying that you might not be the best rapper but your selling the most records what happened to that? I guess you have a different perspective when your not moving 10 million units anymore huh?
If anything your mostly responsible for people for people paying so much attention to the numbers…..

What everyone else has been posting seems to be on point, 50 tight b/c he is irrelevant unless he beefing with a rapper. His whole camp is weak b/c they are following his style of making records. NY Underground please shut up. You making us New Yorkers look uneducated like u r.
