Goodbye you liar,
Well you sipped from the cup but you don't own up to anything
Then you think you will inspire
Take apart your head
(and I wish I could inspire)
Take apart your demons, then you add it to the list.

Much better than the Crap-Sack of music that "Fitty" seems to release.

I hope he gets beat. He probably won't stick to his word, though.

only because he's sampling a good song to death ... which in turn was made from samples of a different song...

still better than 50 Cent though

Really, all you have to do is not listen. Works for me.
Except when the guy next to me in res played Candy Shop all day.

Yeah... he seems to sample a lot of actual good songs, but unfortunately it just looks bad because his will never live up to the songs he samples.

Diddy even stated himself that a lot of the best rap music comes from sampling; its true, too. Rap is known for sampling; many people think its a "cop out" of sorts, but really according to the genre; its totally not.

I just really dislike 50 Cent, and I'm not even sure why. I guess I'm just not a fan. Kanye is one of the few artists in the hip-hop/rap genre that I actually like.

I know why I don't like him. Because he sucks. Oh, and his video game is bullshit. Come on. What the hell do you need to make your own version of the GTA games for? Go blow people up in those games. They have better acting anyway :P

Neil, I assume you don't like 50 Cent because he can't speak. He can slur and sound like a moron, but that's about all he can do.

I love the Weird Al version of Candy Shop in his latest polka medley:

Polka makes everything sound better.

Just saw him in concert last week!

He's gone too mainstreem though. Didn't focus on the classics.

Well... he's always been 'mainstream', it's his job to parody whatever's popular at the time.

There's only one way I'd ever buy a 50 cent CD... if he called it "5 dimes"... I don't know, I think that would be funny.

It's just coincidence that oil men will wage war in an oil rich land
And this one goes out to my man taking cover in the trenches with a gun in his hand
Then gets home and no one flinches when he can't feed his fam...

But Brutus is an honorable man...
