50 Cent or Snoop Dogg which one do you think is the bigger failure?

[usmarin3]

Snoop, 50 was never that nice to me, even on his underground shit. Snoop on to other hand had skills but became a caricuture of himself with all that pimp shit.

what happened was DOC stopped helping him write his rhymes and all he was left with was the pimp shit plus it seemed he leaned more that way after he got off that murder case. but I still think snoop makes decent music from time to time and dropped good album after his debut just had some crappy albums too. 50's music just isn't on the level as of right now. besides tracks on war angel I'm not sure I've felt any of his music sense his 2nd cd.

Snoop Dogg fell off when Tupac died..

Snoop, 50 was never really that nice, he was a gimmick rapper and once the hype died down he just about completely dissapeared. Snoop still has a pretty good base and is still over everything, Nigga is on Larry King live 30 times a year, that's some shit 50 couldnt do.

SMH - only in the Hip Hop genre would fans label either one of these artists as a "failure" in any way shape or form. Hip Hop stays hatin itself

exactly man 90% of this whole "reason" forum are haters, straight up haters and they don't even realize it...

Snoop is the biggest failure. Doggystyle and The Last Meal are his only albums that are worth mentioning.

I sadly have to say Snoop. It's hard for me cuz I think Doggystyle is top 3 best albums I EVER heard including get rich or die trying. I only pick Snoop becuz rhyme for rhyme if it were a wax battle or definaly a freestyle battle(Snoop's still nice off the top)He could rap circles around 50 so it make sence that he has the bigger amount of potential that got wasted. Having said all this neither guy is down right terrible, they just play the commercial rap game.

I would have to go with 50................Snoop is a legend, he is the Jay of the West Coast, SMH @ ya Niggas Sayin Snoop is a Failure..............50 started out with a Bang now his a Career is a mere whimper, He coulda done so much for the game, represnted the Last Big NYC Dynasty(Dont ya Niggas Dare say DipSet) and the last big EastCoast Album...........VEry few folk Started there career off with a Classic LP, but could never follow up to that. his following 2 albums were weedplates. I think he spent his time More beefint with niggas then trynna put out Quality music

snoop fell off after the murder trial, that nigga lost his gangsta....

then pac died, deathrow collapsed and snoop just went off the radar as a real credible artist

snoop been living off his deathrow character ever si nce

 

[krow132]

have to say 50. 50 had one of the biggest buzzes and his first album was top notch in every shape or form.

I think 50 hurt himself with all the beef and his music kind of became sub par. Every now and then he'll put out something extremely dope that will make you say man what happened.

snoop on the other hand was always fairly consistent even though he never lived up after doggystyle.

 

[sickbizzle]

Snoop might be inconsistent but he can still put out a dope album like The Blue Carpet Treatment.

A better question should be who has shown the least growth?

50 easily...who would've predicted the same nigga who made Murda Was The Case would also go on to make "Beautiful" w/ Pharell, songs with Johnny Cash and some of the other random people Snoop has worked with..he's transcended the rap genre but 50 is stuck there musically...he's still rapping about killing niggas and how much crack he sells

didnt like Blue Carpet that much but Rhythm and G was ok to me. He still put decent stuff together

 

[great l]

Snoop is more of a disappointment to me. 50 cent had shown absolutely no growth but it seems Snoop actually regressed.

How is this hating? You must not understand the thread premis.

50 was a lyricist in his early days before he got lazy and I agree with you, he could have been to NY in the mid 2000's to what DMX was in the late 90's or Biggie in the mid 90's, instead he made average at best music and only seem to put his best foot forward in lame beefs.

Threadstarter is a bitch

I think alot of what has to do with 50 Cent's lack of growth is that he wasn't interested as much in being a great rapper versus creating a brand. You cant tell his focus is just being a great and wealthy businessman rather than a legendary rapper.

and thats not exactly a bad thing but when your love for rhyming is not up there, its going to stunt your growth
