call a spade a spade ... n the album didnt do well commercially ... outside of that it was a good album tho ... especially for someone who likes street music as few people put it ... however you cant over look the fact that he does have a very successfull commercial single with BABY BY ME which is still get crazy luv and play on radio and in the clubs ... i party almost every weekend and the bitches luv baby by me they hit the floor when it comes on ...

but its still not helping the album commercially ... which is all good cus @ the sametime yall are making 50 the underdog ... yall are giving him a challenge ... before the shit was easy ... now 50 gotta regroup and prove the naysayers wrong ...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lets go fif holla @ us for some production !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i agree somewhat with T/S.....i even remember someone sayin that he cant carry an album by himself...hell lst i remember the only Artist to go Platinum in the last 2 -3 years w/o alot of features was Em. What people dont understand is 50 CENT...is not just a common american name anymore...its an international name. He sells more albums worldwide than he does domestically, and rather you wanna argue domestic or over seas sells...guess what, they all add up to money in 50's pocket. I think IF this album actually happens, it will be big, as big as him gettin all the NY artists together for a tour. Now as far as the the Game and Buck rejoining the unit, NOBODY wants G-Unit being the strongest movement in the industry again...As a matter of face since 2001, they have been the biggest movement the industry has seen, just check the numbers...YM aint gon have every artist to plat, neither is Triple C's (Thats a Joke), Grand Hustle, etc

he can def do it ... looking @ the def jam discography it happens .... it happen to LL ... he did ok on his first album ... then 2x plat on his second ... then on his third he did less than gold ... and then came back wit another Platinum album wit MOMMA SAID KNOCK YOU OUT ...

sometimes a failure can be a blessin in disguise ... especially for a person like fif who has an hustlers ambition ... this commercial fail is just making him hit the gym harder and really just go in ... its either gonna make him or break him .... but im pretty much sure fif is gonna take this energy and really show n prove ... cus BISD is not a bad album ... just like someone said ... commercially its not marketable ... not that means everything in the world ... but when you trying to reach mainstream records sales IT DOES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! not saying he needs a happy cover ... but he just needs to come up with something he can def stratigize off of ... like GRODT ... he was able to keep it street because he was coming off telling a real story about himself n how he came up off the streets n got shot n all that ... on top of capitalizing off of hip hop beef ... but it was mainly the story behind the music that help sell the record ... and the music cuz the music was powerfull too ... add them elements up and itll = success musically and commercially ... ;)

Exactly. When G-Unit was at its peak it had unlimited potential. He needs to start it over, and rebuild. 50, Banks, Buck, Game, Yayo, and Mobb Deep... Hell he should scoop up Bishop Lamont now that he is off Aftermath as well. Bishop was riding hard for the Unit, and was seen a lot with Yayo, Banks. Then throwing Sigel in the mix (If Fif dont let him sit around like MOP) you have one powerful faction. But as for everyone saying 50 is done based on him selling 300,000 in a month is crazy. Might as well say 90% of the rap game is done based on that logic.

That 50 sells alot overseas is complete bullshit, there is no worldwide sales tracker and generally rap music doesnt sell well overseas.

Really?? I am not sure on that one, but then where do they get worldwide sales totals from? I have always been under the impression that Hip-Hop does well in certain areas overseas not necessarily everywhere. I mean there has to be some kind of tracker the record companies are making the money, they must have some sort of avenue to keep track of what they have sold and the profits.

Haters consider it a flop!!! I agree that the album was a good album if your a fan of 50's music, and look past all the bullshit with sales!! I know 50 said that sales shit first, but so what! If it applys to 50 its right, if it applys to their favorite rapper its bullshit! Makes no since! Whoever made that thead about people who talk about rappers they don't like really being stans was right! Cause if you feel the need to talk shit about a rapper in every thread saying the same shit over, and you don't like that rapper, and don't listen to their music, your an idiot!!! Stright up!! The problem with most hip hop fans today(not real hip hop heads) is they will fault a rapper they don't like on actions and ignore the same actions from their favorite rapper! Not ever rapper can stay on top forever, not ever hip hop fan is going to like every rapper. It just doesn't happen!

Will 50 make a mainstream comeback? Maybe, but if he doesn't will he be the first not to?? Makes no difference. You can say 50 can't rap if thats your opinon, or dropped off or whatever, but if you say he has brought nothing to the rap game, then your name is tupacfan!!! LOL

I am not saying he is the best, or even in the top 10 of any list, but the boy changed the game when he came in!!

You really don't know what your talking about. Rap music doesn't sell well overseas? are you serious?!! Why does every low-level artist go to Europe to perform, cause they love that sh*t over there. Small names here are huge overseas. Ask Kelly Rowland and Jin.

Worldwide sales are basically just estimates...not far off, but not exact. But BISD didn't do shit overseas anyways lol.

I must say, I am kinda pissed. Illseed jacked my thread and made it a rumor, calling it 'one of his sources'. Oh well the rumors section has fallen off anyways. Personally anyone saying BISD was not a good album is not truly a fan of 50. If you liked GRODT then BISD falllows a simaller formula. Its not like his previous 2 efforts. Its a much more aggressive album, ment for his core fanbase.
