  • Oh c'mon, are you guys kiddin' me? I saw 50 cent live, and I can tell you he sucks like hell live! He's lyrics are written for him and he can't sing, everything is computer! U2 is pure, U2 is THE best ! guys like 50cent are warming ups for U2, look at Jay-Z, Black Eyed Peas, warming up for the amazing 360° show, no band, and definitely no rapper can come close to U2's magic!

  • Man this is stupid...how can you compare gangsta rap to pop or rock or any other genres? And by the way, a lot of rap songs have much more meaning then any of the u2 songs thats only your fault if you cant understand whats 50 want to say in many man for example and listen to his old music like the whole power of the dollar and get rich or die tryin albums. Those are legendary.

  • saying rap is crap is not true, lots of rap got good lyrics special fifty,eminem,2pac,etc... they sing about how to make the world a better place some are.. so saying rap is just crap is just plain ass stupid fucking shithead's

  • @ugattawachit Says the person who can't explain why he/she likes rap without swearing several times in a row. And some rap songs have meaning, but not any of the ones this person played. No rap artist can or should be compared to U2!!!

  • @TheHPluver101 well we all see who is the most famous and got the most fans..

  • dermott thats actually a biased argument but whaever

  • 50 cent= the 50 % of musical quality

    U2= the 100%

  • THIS VIDEO IS A DISGRACE TO U2!!!!

  • Would it be bad, if on some show they had a really good rap group do rock, and a rock band try rapping? If they already did this could you send me a video? (Besides Twisted Transistor)

  • Who you dare to compare Legends to shit. U2 is the greatest band ever, the worst song of U2 is better than the 50 cent best songs.

  • @draganayer fuck off

  • @DBOnTheTrack yeah, that's probably the only thing 50 cent can say

  • @draganayer except for he probably has a more broad and expanded vocabulary then you

  • wtf U2 and 50 cent shouldn't be mentioned in the same sentence!!

    you can't compare this cause, there's one with much much talent and other with non talent

  • lol i respect u2 but i listen to rap too. this video shows just the violent part of rap. the audience for both genres is completely different

  • Hahahahahahahahahahahahhahahah­ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah­ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah­ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah­ahahaha!!! Are you KIDDING me? You can't compare the two! U2 is amazing and creative and their music is beautiful. 50 cent is untalented and his songs are CRAP! It's all profanity and violence. Why are the 50 cents song played so long but the U2 ones very short???

  • U2 to my death! <3

  • wtf?

  • why would you compare these two artist's?

  • whats the first song by U2 called

  • Hold me, thrill me, kiss me, kill me.

  • Hold me, thrill me, kill me, kiss me...

    this song was in the batman movie!!!

  • this is stupid compare

    how we can compare u2 the best band of all time

    with 50 bugs or i dont know what

  • fuck 50 man you bastard

  • u2 are best

  • i like u2

  • u2 is better this is a shit comparison 2 pac would be a better comparison

  • Hey what about OutKast and the Black-eyed

    Peas? Excellent hip hop!

  • the first rap song was made on a banjo....rap originally has a c in front if it and also why the hell r u comparing U@ for the king of all black faggots. u need to compare rap artists to rap artists. or rap metal bands to rap metal bands or rap punk

  • black faggots? u fucking racist fuck...there are more homo "CAUCASIANS" than black homosexuals u fucking retard

  • are you judging this on the gay lovers you've had?

  • i am a hip hop fan, but i dont have any of 50's cd's. i have like 2 or 3 songs cus its just boring to me. he may be good but not my preference. i like shit like Wu Tang or Nas and Jigga Em, Pac big, never got into 50's music cus its boring.

  • rap requires no originality, and only shitty rock bands that care about making money dont care about originality. 50 cent doesnt care about originality, just what sells his albums. u2 has a way of making their music sound different in many of their albums, they care about the music. even if they didnt sell as many albums with their new album, they still have the spirit, so they are the more talented musicians

  • What about rappers like Ice Cube, Nas, Chamillionaire, Scarface, etc.?

    Oh that's right, you haven't heard anything from them. All you hear is commercial rap which gives rap in general a bad name.

    Again, you may think that u2 is "more talented", but I don't.

  • since you didn't read my first post, i said for the MOST PART rap sucks, but i like the classic rappers like biggie, tupac, nas and dr. dre. i just hate the shit on the radio thats extremely repetitive where the song writers dont care about the music, they just care about making money. plenty of rock musicians im sure do this too, but the good ones, the ones that actually care, put their music first

  • oh ok......that's better = )

    lol

  • chamiilionaire lol

  • Seems like a lot of the people who commented on this video think "rap is crap". If indeed rap is crap, it would not have millions of fans....so that statement is invalid.

    You could have said, "I hate rap" instead of coming up with something that's false.

    Anyway, I'm a hip hop/rap fan and I don't like U2 (for obvious reasons).

    I liked 50 cent's old work.....not feeling his new stuff.

  • Rap = Crap, I mean, the name Rap is taken out from the world crap because it is crap

  • "Rap is taken out from the world crap"

    Fail.

  • rap for the most part is certainly crap and proves that it doesnt take a lot of (if any) talent in order to make music or be famous any more. rap only attracts young or ignorant people that dont fully appreciate or understand music and its purpose, to express emotion. 50 cent and a lot of other rap artists just write about how much money they make and how cool they are with a bunch of electronic effects in the background. not all rap is like this though, just the majority of it

  • In that case, I say that the type of music you listen to requires no talent at all.

    To each its own.

  • so answer this for me. do rap artists really need to know any actual thing about music? scales, modes, chords, or any of that type of stuff? sure they need to know rhythm, but thats really it. all they have to do is find sound effects in the background that have been used millions of times by other rap artists and just write lyrics, but a ton of rock musicians actually have to consider what chords and notes they play, and the music ends up going somewhere

  • "all they have to do is find sound effects in the background that have been used millions of times by other rap artists"

    That have been used by other artists? lol good one buddy. I can say that most rock musicians play their instruments so loud that you can barely hear what they are saying.

    Stop posting invalid statements.

  • Comment removed

  • Please 50 Cent is no matc up for U2. Bono has been great for 30 yrs., how much experience does this stupid rapper have? He doesn't even get close to U2, for xbacon24,you're the one that sucks, Bono can write music not this idiot.

  • It's not about experience or time,50 cent makes ignorant music and can;t go well with Bono or U2 as a band.I don't know why so many draw into the non-sense G-Unit makes,but then again I understand it,the music business and associates are designed to make profit off of the lifestyle and trends of it's listeners.

  • I agree.

  • G-UNIT?? faggott boy band,,hahah no tallent? he can talk fast and make his words rhyme,,,U2 can actually play instruments and entertain a crowd,,

  • This video has no sense. Everybody with good music taste prefers U2.

  • Oh no another gangster rip off rap rubbish thats made a great group sound bad. Why kill a great song and turn it into something it never was. I mean would you sing the American national anthem in gangster rap or the English national anthem in gangster rap.... No you would not so why mess up something that dont need messing up. U2 aint my first choice in music but i would rather listen to a singer like Bono over the same " yo u ya get me in it , slap up ma biatch buss u cap in yaz arse " rap crap

  • Lmaaaooo!!

  • what a sin..compare this hobo from the guetto that sings about big asses and how much crystal he had last week with the greatest rock band in the world for the last 30 years, Bono could write a song about his ass and still will be better than the whole 50 cent album collection..the only reason why this uneducated moron can compete on sells with u2 is because there are too many retarded teens that don't know zip about music and they get excited with lyrics like: booty booty rockin everywhere

  • @luislarrea haha to "Bono could write a song about his ass and still be better than the whole 50 cent album collection." xD I agree with everything you said.

  • is not comparable , u2 it's the best group in the world , u2 is for the peace , 50 cent for the buick

  • U2 sucks. Period.

  • yeahh right, and hip hop crap is better??? Hip hop is the crappiest shit in the world, no talent at all..they just talk about bitches, money and how they drink bacardi like monkeys..uhhh so much content, all they need is a ripped off beat that all these suckers ooveruse again and again.....U2 has been around for 30 years as the best band in the world, 50 cent will probably will sell Mcdonalds in a few years or end up ODied

  • There both great! U2's just better.

  • Not lately. The last 3-4 albums bu U2 have been unlistenable by anyone's standards. I'm not a big fan of 50, but let's be real. Lately U2 just sucks.

  • What!?!?! haha u are high. Zooropa and Pop where ACE!!! All That You can't Leave Behind was great, too. How To Dismatle was kinda crap... :( but don't dis Zooropa or Pop. Give um another listen.

  • 靠!YOU ARE BEST!

  • thoese are two really random artisits?

  • Bleh, as it is right now, I don't really like rap. Don't get me wrong, rap as a music style is awesome. But the lyrics in those songs are really crude, brutal, and pretty much disgusting. Rapping about slapping hoes, killing people who mess with you; and these records are selling millions! Even rock music has those kinds of moments. Bands like Korn have lyrics that are pretty bad as well. Don't judge the style, judge the artists.

  • i want this video off youtube as it insults u2

  • ROCK sucks!!!RAP is the best

  • rap is the best ok lets compare some lyrics?

    'we dont give a fuck its not your birthday'

    OR

    'i want to reach out and touch the flame, where the streets have no name'

    JESUS THATS A DIFFICULT ONE

  • idiot

  • @dermott06 maybe dont compare a hook and actual lyrics sped

  • 50 sold 10 million on his debut, and i think 9 mil or even 10 mil again on his second, I don't know where you got 4 million from? if your going to show facts..show actual facts

  • U2 are one of the greatest bands ever. 50 Cent, is a cliched arsehole who was invented by Eminem and Dr Dre to make money. 'I'll take you to the candyshop, let you lick my lollipop.' I mean what the fuck??? Oh right, I forgot, he was shot 5 times, hahahaha my ass he was. Rap music is Tupac, Biggie, Nas, Eminem, Jay Z, Dre, DMX- not 50 Cent. This video is a joke.

  • Two artists with very different talents and perspectives. This is totally a case of comparing apples and oranges. I guess I'm an oranges guy, lol...

  • 50 Cent is shit you dumb motherfuckin weak faggots

    you dumb motherfuckin RAP faggots need to listen to better music

    listen to rock music (U2) and stop all this rap shit (50 Cent)

  • you suck, dont know what your talking about, you don't know what hip hop is.. ROCK is not the best type of music... hip hop is real music... i hate people like you.. Rock has no REAL beat

  • Hip Hop is real music shit, no one cares if Rock has no beat, Hip Hop is just poetry shit, Rock is the best, Hip Hop is shit

    Rock has no beat, but it does not have poetry like hip-hop

    HIP HOP sucks!!! ROCK is the best

  • how the hell can you say that. rap music is shit now. it was good with 2pac, dre and early eminem. the only 2 decent rappers left are nas and jay z. 50 cent represents everything wrong about rap. naked women in every video and bling and really bad songs. rock music is superior in every way. comparing a band like u2, with their history, impact, and great music, with this prick is an injustice to common sense.

  • hell yeh

  • Fuck yo rock shit muthafucka

  • Fuck yo rap shit muthafucka, say what you want Rap is a pile of Garbage Shit, It is taken from the word Crap,

    In other worlds, Rap is "Retards Attempting Poetry"

  • fuck u2

  • lol

  • fuck you u uneducated bloody piece of shit

  • fuck 50 cent

  • rap iz better than rock!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • haha you wish

  • How can u compare a rock band(o what ever they are).To an rap artist?That like if u would compare a Elephant with a fish!Thos are 2 other completly wolrds!Cuz rock fans will say hey u2 is the best!But rap fans will say 50 cent is the best!And i see here that every rock fan disses 50 cent!Well if u dont know what rap means then stfu u idiot!

  • I think u can. dis video juxtaposes bullet in the blue sky with piggy bank. I'm pretty sure dat bullet in the blue sky is a raw, searingly aggressive protest at america's interference wit central america in d 80's. the D and E flats sound 2me like human screams. anyway, the band usually follow wit the slower -and I think numb - running to stand still. When I listen to it I feel like I have locked in syndrome. I am not sure what it is about but its emptiness seems apt after the explosive bullet.

  • I'm not sure what Piggy Bank is about.

  • LOL Piggy bank is a diss song!Thats just to diss someone.But if you listen to many men,the good die young,god gave me stylle and many other songs,you will feel what is it about...

  • you can't compare U2 to 50 cent. Musically U2 just rules and Bono defends humanitarian causes... 50 is just making fucking business but not music.

  • 50 centavos = gay

  • U2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­ the best!

  • wtf 50 cent a wortless human being. whats the point in comparing them to the gods that are

    U2 !!!!

  • You've got to be fucking kidding! Comparing a worthless fuck head nigger who can't make change for a dollar to U2? May you die a horrible bloody death you piece of shit!

  • dude, seriously, don't do that, 50 cent is NOTHING compared to U2.

  • Ure an idiot, tht was 50 Cents first actual big album so he was relatively unknown wen tht came out! How many albums had U2 done at the point u idiot?? U cant compare them cos U2 been around a lot longa!!

  • U2 one of the best bands ever. 50 Cent one of the biggest twats ever. Hmmm who wins?

  • hahahah.. youre my hero mate

  • 50 cent aint worth a dollar lmaso :D

  • nor a half dollar

  • extra brate

  • nojkahejd: music with instruments is over rated

  • Why? beacause it involves talent?

  • whats the point?

  • u2 all the way! real siner's with real voice's! not fake 50 wanna be pac!lol! u2 man!

  • 50 cent = Just $0.50

    U2 = Value

  • U2 promotes feaudalism and fifty is the dog, fifty cent and u2 are huge for a reason

  • very nice , i get it, just reading these coments makes

  • i like either u2 and fifty the both are cooooolll

  • You and your vid suck. 'One' is not a lovesong, btw.

  • what about tolerance? can't we all CoeXisT?

  • 50 cent's "music" isn't good. It's just noise in a computer with no instruments or talent. His singing is horrible. U2 actually makes music with instruments. U2 pwns.

  • 50 cent = $0.50

    U2 = priceless

  • you fucking loser 50 cent rulz ,you mother fucker

  • F.u.c.k that nigga his so called music makes me vomit all niggas should be killed ,burn and their ashes should be trown outter space so they dont contamin this plant!!!!

  • Stupid comparison!

    I don't pay $0,50 in 50 cent's CD.

    I don't pay $0,50 to see a 50 cent's "show".

  • Quite a comparison!.. One glorifies the worst of humanity and the other the higher self of humanity.

    One takes from the world with the same tired, old boring "I am a victim" propaganda the other adds musical genius and beauty to the world. History will be the judge I already know the outcome!

  • aww man dat hurz, damn truth hurz!! lavu2, zorry 50, i gah onli a quartah fer yo!!

  • 87.2% pop. verdict about this topic:

    50 cent has earned only a 50-cent out of u2's $9.1M fame! 50 has been accumulating too much dirt since 2005 and is sentenced to spend a lifetime vacation in the most modern/hi tech/most-secured cell in Alcatraz! good luck 50, u best start selling ur blings to avail a second life LOL

  • 50 cent is a sexist perve

  • 50cent sucks dick! his music is rubbish! U2 are the best!

  • Just listen to 50 cents lyrics! No comments... The comparison is ridiculous! U2 is the biggest band in the World for more than 2 decades now. Who is 50 cents. Soon to be forgotten, I will bet ya!!!!

  • For all the people who say that 50 cent is better and visa versa...

    Music isn't good or bad, its not about being the best too.... Music is personal, and it is good, for you when it makes you feel better, when it touches you.. And When 50 cent touches you, than its good music for you, and thats also the case with u2, or whatever you like...

  • U2 is definately way better. dont get me wrong i like 50 but i liked U2 a lot more. im not one for much rap. some of its alright but i dont like the disrespect to women and drug usage. U2 doesnt have any of that in their albums.

  • what has 50 reached in his life?? 50 hospital visits??

  • if you dont think 50 good (i think he is) then go somewhere else

  • U2 is soooooo much better and bigger than 50 cent....

    I don't think 50 cent will survive 30 years in the music industrie as U2 have done ;)

  • good one he makes more money its a known fact and u kno it And alot of ppl enjoy listening to his msuic

  • winner 50 and u2 fuck you

  • 50 cent is gangster and violet killer who is propaganding death,murder,cheat,scum.This bastard has so much blood on his hands and he is free and millionare in stead of being behind the bars!!!

  • you cant compare these two, fucking stupid video

  • u2 wins... 50 is ok... cant rap for shit... actually 50 cent sucks. lates biznatchez

  • 50cent 1 million copies first week think about it asshole

  • u2 - over 150 million albums sold and have won hundreds of awards including a record 22 grammys and a golden globe. bono has earned honourary knighthood from the queen and the french legion of honour. wtf has 50 cent rightfully earned other than 9 bullets up his ass. think about that you useless fuckin wigger

  • ahahha youre so right but you made me laugh so much

  • naked stud fuck u you can't rap 4 shit

  • true i cant... and thank god for that

  • once again fuck u are u dissin' tha rap game motha fucka

  • what if i am you mother fuckin hairy ass cunt. what the fuck you gonna do??? cry about it bitch

  • 50 Cent is simply a MOTHERFUCKIN' CUNT. SHIT SINGER!!!

    U2 by far (even at this age and time) are and will always be incomparable and on top. God bless 'em. END

  • U2 IS THE BEST BAND OF THE WORLD!!

  • Punkassmonkey he will be, check out his new album "before i self destruct" TBR...

  • look 50 cent is my bloody brother and u guys bum of him lmao

  • Ok im a big rap fan and seriously, 50 cent sucks! I kind of liked when he was rapping about stuff that happened 2 him like getting shot, but then he became like any other average rapper, rapping about cars,girls,money..etc Thats wat rap has become and its embarrasing.

    U2 are a great rock band and have been going for about 20 years. Does anyone honestly think that 50 cent is still gonna b as popular in the next 20 years..even in the next 5 years...NO!

  • 50 CNENT IS DA BE$T nigga in the GAME right now :P

    homie U2 is GAY

  • ya,they suck...they suck so much that *wow* their a huge influence for many bands,been inducted in the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame & not to mention 50cent

    himself look up to them.

  • U2 have stupid album covers too jesus gay band

  • u2 sucks 50 rulz

  • which one?

  • the only dif is one for fags

  • Ppl who deny that are ignorant.And maybe if you stop depending on Mtv to do all the music scouting for you & do your own explorations then you'll see how much gd music you've miss out on & realise talented ppl exist beyond the tv in your living room

    Ever heard the phrase Think outside the box.

  • Tangerii I totally agree with you.What the fuck were they thinking comparing 50cent with U2,he's just not worthy!...And ppl,let me set some facts for you

    Just because an artise is commercialised & sells many records only makes him/her popular not necessarily good!Quantity does not mean Quality

  • U2 the best

  • 50 cent is one of the best rappers, no matter what other artists you can come up with. There is a reason that HE's on mtv! if an artist has been 'commercialised' then they must be good; they wouldn't have reached the stage they at now if they aren't.

    U2 are class though.

  • (not all current, btw)

  • u2 wins immiditly!

  • http://www.skylinemixtapes.com­

  • You people cannot be serious. U2 is one of the great bands in the history of music, while 50 Cent is an insult to hip-hop. To say that it's an insult to 50 Cent to compare U2 to him is so, so idiotic and backwards.

  • u must be out of ure mind saying dat 50 is an insult to hppop tell me any rock artist who can realease a solo album dat goez platinum in one week come on tell me

    50 cent iz one of da best rappers in da rap game rite now and u2 are gay so u can shut da hell up

  • It's fitting that one of the most idiotic comments I've read on youtube would come from someone willing to defend 50 Cent.

    Being extremely commercialized doesn't equal being good. If you honest to god think that 50 Cent is one of the best rappers right now, you seriously need to check out rap beyond MTV and BET. Try downloading some Immortal Technique, for example. In fact, here's a very quick list:

  • Immortal Technique, MF Doom, Talib Kweli, Mos Def (check out their Black Star album), Aesop Rock, Necro, 7L & Esoteric, Digable Planets, Big Pun, Blackalicious, Jurassic 5, and Sweatshop Union.

  • U2 are the bust!!!And 50 cent is  the best too.Distinction's is in the music.U2 plays rock,falk and pop music.And 50 plays hip-hop,rep,and r&b .THAT's all.

  • u2 all the way,up the irish!!

  • yes Poetry3000, comparing U2 with 50 Cent is an insult-an insult to U2!

  • FYI for anyone who say U2 are gay and anyone who likes U2 are gay think about this. 50 cent is a fan of U2 and a great friend of Bono! So is Dre.

    Also, you can't compare two artists of different Genres! Thats like comparing farts to burps, they both rock in there own special way.

  • All you haters of U2!!! You'll soon grow up and realize that they do make great music!!!

  • U2 is GAY! Comparing that white group with 50 Cent is insuilting. It's like comparing dorks to cool guys; and of course, people are going to choose the cool ones.

  • the cool ones being U2 of course?
