Review of 50 Cent’s Reality Show
BOTTOM LINE Get beyond the hilarious fact that Curtis Jackson (and G-Unit loyalist Tony Yayo) are preaching the straight-and-narrow in the biz world, and you soon realize this savvy old pro must have something up his sleeve: Namely a concerted effort to sell his new book, “The 50th Law,” written with hip-hop Machiavelli Robert Greene (”The 48 Laws of Power”).
This show is about building Jackson’s empire, not starting theirs. Empire-building is swell for the builder, but its like watching paint dry for us.
GRADE D
Full Review: Newsday
Judge for yourself tonight at 10 on MTV.

50 will go down as:
1)The best business man hiphop has ever seen
2) the most electrifying debut in rap history, with only competition from snooop dogg and biggie
3) most dominant mixtape run in history and revolutionizing the entire mixtape game as a marketing tool
4) a leader that put out multiple artists that went platinum, something jayz cant say for himself
5)the biggest touring artist in hiphop history
6)dominant billboard positions and airplay.. in 2005 4 songs in the top 10, only the BEATLES have done the same
7)beefed with a lot of artists and was literally a ‘patroling bully’ in rap… like a bully in the hallway **** with ppl cus he can
9) will be known as the man who destroyed murda inc and ja rule forever
10) a rapper who actually had street cred, REAL street cred, as verified by guys who dislike him like smurf, domination, and preme himself
