I dont understand why this was made? WHY??????????

why are people comparing future president BARACK OBAMA with fif?!?!?
can’t get past the first minute… Barack is the definition of a respectable black man… 50 got his chance in hip hop by riding em’s coat tail… unfortunately his best album was his 1st, but he’s hustling and will get his money regardless… so i’ll give him props for that… other than that he should be studying Obama and getting a few pointers on grace under pressure b/c if you ask me 50’s a lil bi-atch

The documentry is not all about comparing Obama and Fifty. I think it’s more about black masculanitly and how the world views black men. Looks interesting???

This was a good piece. I dont understand how it went over so many peoples head. Its pretty straight forward. Maybe if wayne narrated it niggas would get it easier.

This comparison is pretty interesting. The white correspondent was being kind of condescending though.

That was very interesting…I can see how they came up with this…They hit the nail on the head…Not everybody can get on the level of understanding something so intellectual it’s sad…Reading is fundamental…Read a book!!!!!!!

CO-SIGN WITH #13…EVALUATE THE PIECE, UNDERSTAND THE DISCUSSION THEN COME TO AN INTELLECT CONCLUSION…ITS A SUBLIMINAL ISSUE, ITS NOT IN REGARDS TO HOW OBAMA AND CURTIS ARE ALIKE BUT HOW INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE UNDERDOGS CAN ACHIEVE “SUCCESS” WHILE BREAKING THE BARRIERS AND OVERCOMING OBSTACLES TO REDEFINE NEW HEIGHTS….

Then that is NOT unique to 50 cent. The comparison is idiotic no matter how you look at it, and F.Y.I #14 and #13 u kids are not smart, big words won’t save you lol. Do you know how many succesful people came from dirt poor or very limited opportunity and made success out of it? I do. Personally.
This is just a 50 cent marketing ploy. Case closed.

curtis jackson doesn’t have a manhood style. He is a bitch to the truest extent of the word. He uses gimmicks to get paid, he always has. It disheartens me when these type of comparsions are made.
