 | | On the song "Love Me" off the 8 Mile soundtrack, 50 Cent criticized Lil' Kim for having breast implants and discusses why he refused her request to be in a video clip for her single "Magic Stick", which he refused to record with her, citing that the song was originally entitled to Miami rapper Trina. | | | 50 Cent also claimed that he was not getting proper credit for the debut of the album. | | | In 2005, 50 Cent released his sophomore album, The Massacre. |

| | 50 Cent is the real deal and he takes us back to the streets with his debut album, Get Rich Or Die Tryin'. | | | 50 Cent has emerged from the hood with his debut album, Get Rich Or Die Tryin', and has robbed the music industry of its spotlight with his gangsta ways and hard-knock rhymes. | | | By joining forces with hip-hop masterminds Eminem and Dr. Dre, 50 Cent has burst onto the rap music scene with enormous force, backed by his aggressive lyrics and violent nature. |

| | 50 Cent stirs up trouble on The Massacre. By Jody Rosen |
| | Supposedly, the rappers' beef had roots in a mugging back in Queens, but in songs like "Back Down," 50 Cent's motives seemed careerist: He was clambering into the spotlight on the back of a high-profile rapper, casting himself as a hard-core alternative to Ja Rule's bubblegum rap. | | | Some observers were more skeptical, grumbling that the 50 Cent-Game dispute was an elaborate publicity stunt, timed to coincide with the release of 50 Cent's new album, The Massacre. | | | This week, 50 Cent dominates the Billboard charts, with the No. |

| | 50 Cent: Get Rich or Die Tryin': Pitchfork Review |
| | To put it bluntly, 50's rap sounds cold and mechanical, as though he were paralyzed by the pressures of hype or the prospect of his album being used as evidence against him in his trial for alleged weapons possession; the album sees him alternately declaring that he cares/doesn't care whether the D.A. hears these tracks. | | | He doesn't delve into the character of the gangsta any deeper than the prosaism he spits, and while he obviously has an excellent vocal cadence and a finely tuned ear, his lyrics lack the textured imagery and dexterity of themes necessary to sustain interest over the course of a full album. | | | Unfortunately, Get Rich or Die Tryin' rarely reaches these pinnacles; for most of the album's duration, 50 wallows in the genre's clichés. |

| | How Eminem mishandled 50 Cent. By Sasha Frere-Jones |
| | 50 is a terse, funny MC with more sang-froid than seems healthy, and his previous work is like 10 years of gangsta aesthetics compressed into one machinelike performer. | | | Though there are eight or even 10 solid songs on the album, much of what makes 50 Cent stand out—his implacable perspective and humor—is missing. | | | The aggrieved style of songs like "Back Down" and "Don't Push Me" doesn't fit 50 Cent, who sounds happy and comfortable when he's threatening people, like he might be making spaghetti at the same time or watching cable. |
