It's simple Pac wasn't doing it to make a quick buck. Pac did it because deep down Big, for example cross the line some how in his "book". The Public can feel Pac's soul in everything he does. We feel 50 is more of an act and though he can be intriging it dosen't connect on a deeper scale.Pac didn't talk reckless about any and everybody when he first came out he later just got too bored with life and the mundane cycle of it all. I believe if Pac would of released some of the things he counldn't get over about his life he'll still be here still trying to enrich us in the midst of all the kaos.

But Pac never was that person until he got on Death Row. Pac loved Biggie, you could make the arguement that Suge put him up to that. He did make the man sign a contract in pencil from behind bars. The world know how much Suge hated Puff so the arguement could be made that he put Pac up to going at Biggie. If you pay attention every 50 beef happen when one of his enemy decided to side with Ja, you, yourself said his beef with Murder Inc was real. Pac went at Mobb Deep, Nas, Jay Z for standing to close to Biggie so what's the real differences?

Pac was a revolutionary.When he shot those two offbeat police officers in the atl that showed his beliefs in the struggle you feel.When he got set up in new york in 94 he felt big puff and others had a part in it. That sound like a good reason for a man to have problems with someone.All these events happened before he went to jail and the suge situation.Suges partner got murked in the atl supposedly by one of puffs goons.So this is where suges hate for puffy come in at.

Niggas hating on 50 cuz dey not getting no money.
Dey wuz hating num before he was on & dem same niggas hate now.
As far as Pac comparisons.....none.
50 getting dat money,Pac was always ending up playing the puppet.
I think pac open the doors so niggas like 50 could come thru mashin how he doing.
50 not as educated politically and is not as concious as pac.
He more educated money wise and thatta keep a n**** on top of the game,alive.

well he felt like Big crossed the line...

50 definitly uses the promotion... but getting mad at him cause he knows how to use the system that is in place to his advantage...

aire out sessions are common in how we do things period it was just taboo to do it on wax and 50 did it in his own way

The hate he is getting is part of the game there has to be a bad guy and he seems comfortable wearing that title...
you can question his motives but he stated the reason he came into rap was to find a new hussle ... to get money and get it he has. The rap beefs were with the people who choose to get in the way of that goal
and thats it no more no less. To me G Unit is straight hip hop with the energy they put into it the inovative way they brought it to market, the insite he brings to certain subjects, the ill s*** they say, the f***** beats that they ride over. And the idea that he wants to get paid for it where other rappers have not (while someone was getting paid the whole time just not the rappers) is a win to me for hip hop.


Consciously I would love to see more but box dwellers would I think tear him down if stepped outside of it...

I don't think 50 uses his beef as promotion because what diss record has he released Commercially? You could say Wanksta but he didn't mention Ja Rules name. Pac made Hit Em Up, America's Most Wanted (that had a scene of him shooting Biggie) & Toss it up! 50 has one diss record on the album (none on Curtis) & the rest is on mixtapes.

What promotion, I know you're not taliking about mixtapes because there's no million record selling mixtape. A couple thousand people may have heard the mixtape so if he sells 3 million off of that then why wouldn't he put out a video dissing his foes for millions could hear & see it? It's just that's what interest you most about 50, the controversy but the same could be said about Pac. Pac wasn't a multi-million selling artist until the controversy.

ive got somethin to say.

im sure fif uses beef for promotion, but maybe Some of the beefs.

beef with buck, not at all for promotion. ill bet if fif had his choice buck would have been smart and loyal. no beef.

fat joe, they had beef long ago but it had settled somewhat. fat joe brought it back up and started it again on 106 n park. fif was respondind.

game beefs with game because game is Constantly tryin to beef with fif.
game started the beefs with fif instead of keeping a good business relationship, fif was somewhat responding.

now when it comes to jadakiss, complete promotion move. there are some beefs he has used as promotion but not all

I agree with you, that sound like a good topic right there. "Would 50 Cent have to die to be considered a legend?"

the answer is completly yes. not many would even deny that. and the ones who would are completly wrong.

when fif dies, he will be Long remembered forever as a legend. along with pac, dre, eminem, snoop, xzibit, jay, and nas.

now if he went out gettin shot again and shootin back he would be even more of a legend. same level as pac i think.

if he dies old age he will still be a legend but we all will b too old to care anymore
