50 Cent's Work Ethic vs Quality of Work: Manny Norte & Barbers Discuss

[YoungShyne123]

check out the big 10 50 cent mixtape

[mexia23]

These dudes are hilarious!!! damn i miss Mtv The Shop. i'm still a 50 cent fan but he ain't as hot as he use to be. i like the last ablum it was gangsta. but the songs he came out went later are garbage.

[deserteag718]

true shit niggas hate on fif for no reason fif put out good music neva fail on albums

[SuperAnthonysantos]

That english accent is what got niggas tight

[Jshine1980]

i agree 50 put in work for most that have been out for 10 yrs in their career . 50 came in and did it in 4yrs .

[IAmSoTight1]

I love how these idiots say "music" when they are just reffering to rap. it's so much music on this planet til you won't don't even have to rely on any new music. go classical, musical, metal, opera, let's get out the "streets" and find some better material.

[FiftyScent]

@IAmSoTight1 stop being a rap hater. rap is one of the most difficult music to make, because of the fact that TRUE RAP ARTISTS are based on rhyme scheme & flow, which is IN other genres, but its not FOCUSED on like it is in rap. ill be the first to that there is garbage rap music out there, as is with any type of music, but REAL RAP & HIP-HOP is a true craft.

[IAmSoTight1]

These dudes are insane. Obviously Jay is way more lyrical than 50. Jay don't need a gimmick to make hot songs.

[trevor7960]

looool @da brother in chair haha....

[turnstylezdrumming]

@trevor7960 word he tight. really tryna get his hair cut and get to the bank before it close and bobby keep talkin shit. too funny

[BananaShake21]

im not gona hate on 50 liek everyone else,,becuase he has money,gurls,clothes,mansions,,­and i dnt have shit...but in my opinion i dnt really like his songs that much,,theres better rappers with less money,liek the game

[seattlehawkins]

Niggers love...Niggers!  XD

[haokannan]

We cutting hair at this place of business or are we having a roundtable meeting about nothing related to doing high bald fades. Just because there at work doesn't mean they're working. Hurry up and cut my hair so I could move on with my life.

[dunkscoots]

them barbers should of this cut the hair

[leshandenae]

that one dude in the chair like get this fuccn camera out my face i got warrants

[Simplymatt937]

The Dudes In The Chair Got That Expression On Their Face Like They Wanna Tell The Barbers "Shut The Fuck Up And Finish Cutting My Hair I Have Places To Be"

[ELGALLAR]

YOUNG MONEY Babyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy­yyyy

[SuperCannibus]

its all planned plotted and part of an agenda. they put out hot records BUT the talent doesnt come from them. like i said agenda. underground music is real there aint nothing real about anything or any rapper that hits the mainstream. the proof is out there. music is way bigger than a 50 or a kanye or even jay. they all work for 1 goal. and thats to keep everyone blinded

[Eddie6g]

the guys getting their haircut are like damn these guys talk to much already i gotta get to work

[noobwithanrs]

lol that nikkas like "can u finish up my line up already?"

[zaguilar1]

I dont know how i listened to this whole video.

[YoussefS]

early 50 is good.. new stuff ... not so much..

[1allstar1]

fuk dat who fukin wit jada NO one he rap from da heart. tell 50 to get off his club bullshit  D-BLOCK bitchezzzzzzzzzzz

[troopa1234]

EMINEM BITCHHHHHHHHHHH!!

[francis13zim]

hip hop fans are followers if somebody says fuck 50 everybody says it. get off 50 dick he makes good music

[dlacc187]

these niggas are buggin'....how the fuck you gonna praise 50 cent and then downplay jay-z.......gtfoh. SMH.

[robdoe411]

they are talking about artist that don't really matter anymore....kanye hasn't been the same since College Dropout, 50 sucks...Jeezy is just alright...period.

[31dangerous]

i can't get over how much i enjoyed wathin' this video niggas still live 50 cent i love 50 cent so much as GOD love him too GOD bless you 50 cent

[devi1revolver]

Cover your mouth with your hand2. Make a wish3.Close your hand (fist)4. Hold your hand at heart for 5 seconds5. Send this to 3 more videos6. Tommorrow will be the best day everit actually workedMoney- you will find a wad of $200 in cashLove- Your crush or lover will kiss you or ask you out

[southpaw913]

the massacre was a classic to...if he still rapped like he did on the power of the dollar and guess whos back he would still be a broke ass underground rapper.. you have to make music 4 the radio if you wanna be on top in this business

[jameldion]

why is that nigga on 50's wong like that....i can't name a 50 record that's on the radio right now....

[downasty]

i agree around 7;18

[tonytonytonytony222]

this is actually a good debate.. bomb shit

[qborodee]

this is why i let white people cut my hair these niggas all talk and not cuttin hair

[downasty]

man its boring in the barbershop, people have to talk trash and bullshit

[swirvfly]

these niggas know nothin about hip-hop lol i swear....

[n0smudges]

I agree with the guy on the right on that last point. Good quality music in the hip hop genre is few and far between. I don't want an mc to throw me a club joint bone. I'm a female and I definitely don't want some over sexed song either. That singing to the ladies because I'm having a creative dry spell is wack as hell to me. I want something that's gonna go down in history as a classic. I wish the business wasn't so commercial because now its about quantity of sales instead of quality of work.

[iLikeGoodMusak]

This is a Great Video. You all should check out Vthov's music. Finally someone speakin some real shit. Search "Vthov Let Me Clear My Throat" He makes great music.

[anonymous18715]

jeezy is not in the streets hes in his mansion

[anonymous18715]

damn these niggas still cuttin hair

[HipHopHead305]

This is good, let me tell you about this dude I stumbled on. I must admit he impressed me. Search "Vthov Obama Inaguration Song" and you'll see what I'm talking about.

[t250cent]

ahaha 50 cent 4 life!

[coola784]

and on another note kanye west is a fucking douchbag, i cant stand his ass, worst rapper their is, him and his gay ass mullet fro. that fool is weak as hell.

his first album was hard, i will give him that, but his new shit is straight terrible. i just aint feeling that shit.

[coola784]

man 50 cent is the hardest rapper alive, i dont care what no one says, his first 2 albums crushed anything and everything around, and just for those he is a legend.

lil wayne is the most over rated rapper their is, he aint even that good, he had a few good songs but the rest of his shit is whack and thats some real talk. he may put out a lot of mix tapes and what not but seriously he doesnt have his shit together like 50. he just aint that good.

[BangemTV]

watever happened to dis show?

[Trapped27]

FROM ME DOING MY HOMEWORK ON 50CENT AND THOSE OTHER RAPPERS THEY TALKING ABOUT,50 STARTED THAT BEATIN THE STREETS UP WITH MIX TAPES...NOW THA LIL WAYNE's,and JEEZY's IS FOLLOWING THE FOOT STEPS OF A MAN WHO RUNS HIS OWN CAREER...HIP HOP NEED 50CENT BECAUSE HE IS JUST LIKE "2PAC" IN A WAY,CAUSE WHEN HE SPEAKS PEOPLE LISTEN!!!

[masdadon]

true say...50 is a legend

[lovelysuga22]

Man 50 is wack... lil wayne shyt is way harder.... wait oh ya 50 a snitch bitch

[CrunkKing232]

50 aint no snitch lil wayne is a bitch and a fake ass blood first he said he was a crip then he says his blood and what he says on the mic is complete giberish

[MrSwagtacular32]

This is a good Video, yall should check out this video.... the music is off the chain. Search "Vthov Obama Inauguration Song" He's a nobody now, but I guarantee he's going places. Don't take my word for it, see for yourself.

[GangstaLean404]

Fiyah video. I stumbled onto this unknown musician but I swear he is going places. Search "Vthov Original Song" This guy is very talented.

[0089229]

man shut up an just cut my head

[ceeillz]

50 just needs to put out his music and stop the beefing. That what's souring the music. It's too much friction between the artists. It's entertaining but hip hop can be lucrative as well as entertaining without rappers always trashing other rappers. A GOOD work ethic consists of consistency in quality music, not desperation tactics. Nor does it consist of a barage of mixtapes filled with crazy shit and no substance. Work hard at quality not quantity.

[ceeillz]

Man, look. Nobody's really into 50 like that no more. Plain and simple.

50 is a gimmick anyway. His success didn't come from his talent, but more of the story of 50 Cent. Now that he can't play off of that he name drops and start contraversy to keep his name relavent. The 2nd and 3rd albums show exactly what 50 is. Just above or just average talent. No contraversy no sale is 50's M.O. See how he recently got at TI on the sly tip. I mean what kind of work ethic is that.

[nevawrong]

you may be right, or you may be wrong, but im one guy who still likes 50's music, & im a nigga from BROOKLYN NY, & i can tell u that there are still madd niggas that listen to him. but he also has a lot of haters that dont like him, it goes half & half.

POWER OF THE DOLLAR

BEG FOR MERCY

HUNGER FOR MORE

GUESS WHO'S BACK

GET RICH DIE TRYING

those are albums i still play in my car, & i like a lot of his new shit also, "RETURN OF THE BODY SNATCHERS", & "ELEPHANT IN THE SAND" was poppin

[InfiniteWisdomO8]

All I know is I need to get cut up from one of the dudes that ain't talking so I don't gotta be sittin there forever.

[ceeillz]

ditto

[alphaunit4]

50 cent is good

[balam921]

Ol boy like, quit talking and cut my hair..

[anonymous18715]

where my spanish nigga?

[osaruonamen]

old fif and new fif, if the same fucking the same shit.

[OTKP]

yeah the old 50 is better because the old 50 was not rich and had a lot of stuff to get off his chess and rap about, once you make it then what do you rap about

50 leaves the hardcore stuff for the Mixtape shit I think his Mixtape stuff be better then his album now but he made his money he has a Diamond Plaque one of the last few artist to sell 10 Million records World Wide what else can he do?

[ScriffMcgriff]

This is good, Have yall heard of vthov? Search "Vthov Obama Inauguration Song" This cat is going to be huge. Raw lyrics and he makes his own beats which are also fiyah. See for yourself if you don't believe me.

[adamdaye]

old 50 is much betta!!

[terryagyekum]

it's kinda true tho he keeps it comin ...i can honestly say im not exited at all for his new album. So far every single he's leaked out of 2008 and 2009 im not feelin. But i still like 50 i also have but i dno he's gettin really played out.

[justfarr1030]

All time, nobody has more work ethic than Jay-Z and 50. Wayne don't have no work ethic. He put out all these mixtapes but most of the songs on each one he ain't sayin nonthin.

When he put out 50 QUALITY mixtapes in a row then we can talk.

[bignas2009]

50 is a fake ass niger. end ov.

[chimon1982]

fuck 50 fake ass nigga

[ManyDiamonds]

what?

[svenso777]

quality not quantity

style not substance

some times less is more... common dissed 50 so hard im suprised that 50 even bothers anymore

[medjosh]

I would be pissed off if I was sitting on that guys chair. Shut the fuck up and finish the hair cut so I can leave!

[show504]

That's Why New York rapper's don't really make it because the guy say's 50 put out the most music Weezy got over 50mixtapes and he started in 2001...

[Caspaah151]

lol he started wayyback.. and he got some reaaly bad songs

[nevawrong]

who has really bad songs?

[nevawrong]

i dont understand?

[Caspaah151]

wayne

[awsamusic]

The dude at the end summed it up: thirsty for music and not a lot of good hip hop out there. 50 is a gimmick, smart man but the demise of hip hop. Thank god for Jay-Z and Kanye, missing Luda and Mos Def: come back!

[mhsdeuce]

Have they never heard of Lil Wayne? He puts out the most songs.

[mattbane]

Look at the two dude who WERE getting their hair cut before this conversation... Fuck that'd be painful. Look how unimpressed they look.. Hilarious!!..... AND FUCK ALBUMS SALES YOU STUPID MOTHERFUCKERS!!! How about the quality of these cunts work.

[elchessboy0wnzuagain]

damn do these dudes WORK?

[jaysofreshmun]

okay but 50 stole the eye get money beat look up who produced the beat and i bet you will c a bunch of bull shit

[DaScott123]

and same with wayne had like 20-25 extra features and producers and kanye did 4 fucking beats for him wayne only did the doctor shit by himself and stole that misunderstood from common so don't even try to say they got shit on fif SHIIITT they not like him get wayne on a hot track by himself the track is next to pure shit after a McDonalds dinner

[DaScott123]

Time the Fuck out Game in no way shape or form is better than 50 game had a feature on every track except money and some he had 2 he had almost 20-25 features and expensive producers to make a good album, 50 only hire singers for hooks and he might have 2 maybe 3 on his shit and that was only on Curtis cause the rest of his shit he did not even really have any feature pushes

[DaScott123]

Dude on the right was not even cutting my mans hair I would be pissed if I was sitting there we would hav had some words like yo lets get to this cutt ye digg can't have that shit in the barber shop I don't mind talk but its in and out

[cmurderabc1]

they cant cut hair for shit lmao

[skeematics21]

How can you overlook the fact that he kisses grown men in the mouth? Does sales or work ethic matter at this point? You are the reason why Hip Hop now excepts all this faggotry. Biting is allowed? Skinny girl jeans on men is cool? Being high on coke and shooting yourself is cool? What the hell is next? Check yourself.

[cmurderabc1]

wtf r u tlkin bout i aint say shit bout wayne i thought dat shit was disgusting plus i dont lik him plus dat pink shit tite jeans all dat i dont think no of dat shit cool or even fucking pericings i actually agree with u bsides u telling me to check myself wen all i said was they cant cut fucking hair wen dat shit is true cuz u can tell cuz they fukkin hair is fucked up

[skeematics21]

my badd, that message wasnt meant for you.

[Socal150]

Wayne ain't putting out the same amount of work as 50? If not MORE? Com'on now. Find a track that Wayne ain't on right about now on the radio.

[Theblacko]

radio music sucks xD

[skeematics21]

Wayne Kisses dudes.... dont even put that sisi in the same sentence as 50.

[Socal150]

im talkin about sales and work ethic your talkin about kissin dudes? wayne sold the most out of any artist this year.. and put more mixtapes out that majority of the mainstreem rappers not to mention he's on everyones single right now.. go figure

[skeematics21]

How can you overlook the fact that he kisses grown men in the mouth? Does sales or work ethic matter at this point? You are the reason why Hip Hop now excepts all this faggotry. Biting is allowed? Skinny girl jeans on men is cool? Being high on coke and shooting yourself is cool? What the hell is next? Check yourself.

[Socal150]

Coke has been around for years in hip hop. Look at the average street rappers 16 bars. Its either about selling coke or bagging it up. No I don't overlook the fact that he kissed another man in the mouth but I'm simply stating the fact that he has a good work ethic. That's like when 50 said , "My record sales slow, I'm a show you my dick" This day in age rappers will do anything to make money. If you want to talk business look at 50's record sales each album is lower than the one before.

[Roybah]

plies had 2 albums in one year right? thats hard work too

[Theblacko]

yeah it's really hard work.. admire and respect that. but not the same amount off success with it.. so the quality of the work ain't as much :)

[dipojones]

thats wack hard work lol..both albums sucked balls

[casonsha]

Why is the one guy sucking fifty's dick so hard! Wow! I would feel strange talking about another man like that - seriously.

[Icemandope]

fiddy is fucking wack,he cant freestyle songs sucks.

the game,lil wayne thats much better.

[Screammy89]

50 is wack. he's a hater. he hates on people doing better than him. like kanye and wayne.that skinny dude needs to get off 50's dick. 50 aint got shit out. wat was his last song? candyshop? i dont think wayne the best alive but wayne put out HOT mixtapes like 3 times a week. and kanye doin good 2

[ten8d]

and the game dropping names. but game still doing his right staying on path and not even trying to cross road and change a winning formula, just look at the mixtape he's putting out old skool the the documentary.okay last thing every rapper or mc does his work for hip hop. 50 make money but a true rapper makes respect in the game of hip hop in the end it's all you want cause money isn't every thing...

[finleytravon]

to me plies n wayne work the hardest 50 never put as many albums as wayne in plies riped on his last cd.

[chamilionaire89]

dude check wat chamilli did..4 mixtaopes in the last 4 months plus MTM7 coming soon then album VENOM then godwillingy 2 mixtape messiah in a same day...so that gonna come up to 7 mixtapes and an album in bout 6 months

[420159]

good vid jumpoff

[trannyguy8000]

I still can't believe dudes are stanning 50. Listen to other shit, man, shit.

[trannyguy8000]

Wow, I wish I was in the barbershop during this. Seriously, dudes are incorrect on a lot of shit. 1. 50 has been mainstream since Day 1. He doesn't need to try and go from underground to mainstream. 2. "I Get Money" aside and a few cuts on TOS aside, dude hasn't done anything decent since 2003. 3.Almost everyone is putting out free shit on websites. 50 isn't special. 4.Game is terrible, and for more reasons than the name dropping. 5.50 can't act. 6.Jeezy has a cohesive sound, but no good albums

[nevawrong]

"RETURN OF THE BODY SNATCHERS" & "ELEPHANT IN THE SAND" were HOT 50CENT underground albums in my opinion

[russoner]

Is it me, or are the customers eventually gettin' pissed off cuz these dudes is yappin' their asses off instead of clippin'?

[abc153123]

word!! aint dat sum shiit

[BoxingzBestTRAV]

naaa its tha unit always

[peezhead]

these motherfuckers are annoying sometimes

[LTMaloney33]

they ended that on a good line

[swiftomatik]

that was a good lil piece

[marvjay]

why does wayne have to be mentioned WHY?

[libra1091]

i dont bump wayne as far as music goes but wayne ethic is crazy high... nigga was droppin a new mixtape every month awhile back

[3nutty]

Fiddy cool but his music is not as anger as he was at first. And that why the gutter embraced fiddy. But like the man said whatis their to be mad about when you gott millionz. But fiddy work ethic is hard but so was Master P cause that who Fiddy remind me of.

[bdmixworld]

Lets keep it real! 80 percent of 50 Cents 1st to albums were bought by emenem fans.

Thats why 50 's album sales have dropped . But people act like he did it all by him self.

[YbHpotential]

what happened to the show on mtv?

[micfiends]

yo big up on that, yo 50 is the man for business

the nigga arguin that 50 puts oout lots of shit but mostly shitt, fuck him wayne puts out way more garbage

[killabarz17]

50 izda most consistent..he da best

[ice9izzle20009]

Rap is rigged for certain artist to shine. Surround lil wayne with whats out now.. of course he's gonna shine.. Now have him where he is at now around Jay Z, Nas, Eminem, back when the game was competitive, then we'll see how nice he is.. His albums will never be on the level for him to be considered legendary like Bob Marley.. lol.. He wants his music to be spoken amongst greats, but the songs he's puttin out isn't.. it sells drinks in a club but who really sits, rolls an L,and listen to wayne?

[wtfilms]

you think any white folks ever get there hair cut there?

[SammyJ21]

I agree it's at a low, but there is some good tunes out there!

[ihearnoise]

p is buggin out

[bluehefner51]

50 is the best!

[SocaTrain]

"i like his old stuff better" the most overused and unnecessary comment concerning music. EVERYBODY's old shi is betta than their new stuff, so its kinda pointless even pointin that out anymore

[amfeagin1983]

this video is a up north opinion come down south so we can give ours

[88shottahz]

wat u gonna think jeezy n lil wayne is da shit?...smh...its all about lyrical street muzik dat mean sumthin

not snap ur fingers n drinkn lean...i live in the south south...and i can't name 5best "rappers" in the south

[TRNCakaprodigy]

[dabooga]

[arya721]

[femibaba]

If i was a customer am gona be pissed boi. Fukn concentrate on my head and stop jabbering!!

[amfeagin1983]

ok what happen to lil'wayne in the convo

[Tracformers]

thanks what i was thinkin, these guys dont know as much as they think

[amfeagin1983]

yep

[swirvfly]

50 Cent is not even better than Lloyd Banks!

[mahumes]

lioyed banks suks dick

[swirvfly]

None of these dudes know what they are talkin bout and need to open their eyes to real shit and not where the crowd steers to, we need to bring real Hip-Hop back man, Joe Budden Padded Room Feb. 24...Halfway House available now Google it....Mood Muzik avaiable....google it...thats real shit man!!!

[swirvfly]

I hope everyone in this video see's these comments...Hip-Hop music used to be made from the heart and was an art of expression, now it is ALL about money and this determines how good of a rapper you are?? NO!!! It's a difference between hot and nice. ANyone can put out a bunch of hits not sayin nothing on the track but fabricated bullshit and stickin to the trends and the "swag" that everyone wants to look. Hip-Hop artist now have to appeal to their audience to get recognition, not be talented!

[herakuzi]

Agreed. Part of the reason why you got shit like Soulja Boy and whatnot selling records. A lot of rappers nowadays don't pay attention to substance anymore.

Also how is the amount of work 50 puts out there related to his credibility as a good artist? Quality or quantity.

[AM3yzeN]

these dudes no nothing at all.. SMH "how many emcees put out music for free on their website"

[diddyman4real]

the truth isw, EVERYBODY in the hip hop business name drops on some level, The Game gets called out on it because its more noticable within his lyrics, being that most of the names he drop influenced him in one way or another, whether good or bad. No body should even try to shit on him unless they look at their own lyrics first, ESPECIALLY 50cent. He name drops like nobodys business.

[njcarlos1]

you must me jokin my dude... NO one, i mean NO one drops more names than Game. he spits like 15-30 diff names per song. most ppl aint droppin names at all, even 50. not sure what youre listenin to

[diddyman4real]

i'm listening to his songs, and he has drop plenty of names. like i said earlier game does it the most and more frequently, i never said he didn't, i'm just saying that he gets hated on for it more because of how frequent he does, but all of the rappers do it, in one way shape or form, trust me.

[Cjay101yadig]

yea dats tru but real talk i jus dont fuk wit alot rappers nowadayz but yea i havent seen these guys in a minute either they should bring back da show

[bluetrack5]

lil wayne. put out singles and mixtapes like crazy, he sorta slowin down now.

[swirvfly]

50 Cent is NOT TALENTED 1st of all, if you think for ONE second that 50 is nice, you havent heard REAL hip-hop music and you jus feed into whatever the media is telling whats hot. Yall are talking commercial and it is because of fans like yall why Hip-Hop is dead now. Talkin bout Swagg and record sales and videos, NONE OF THAT MEANS SHIT MAN! Yall all brainwashed, his music is BULLSHIT. Jay-Z is ok now, yall need to listen to Joe Budden, that is REAL hip-hop lyricism. Music is low because of u!!

[G2ncay]

stfu, 50's first album was damn good hip-hop, now maybe he aint dat good but his first album was awesome!

Afta 2pacs album was dat great hip-hop album!

Jay sucks lyk hell wit his monkey face.

Get Rich Or Die Tryin' is a Legend Album!

ya kno nuthin'!

[aftermath021]

i agree

but i think the new 50 sucks

hes old work is much much better

[njcarlos1]

jay-z is ok now? compared to his early shit jay-z is wack, who doesnt think that? 50s just movin along that trend. Power of the Dollar & Get Rich or Die Tryin were his realist joints cause he was in the streets, just like Reasonable Doubt was Jay's. you get to a point where ppl dont buy into the thug shit when youre ballin, even if you havent changed much in 4 or 5 yrs. still i think Before I Self Destruct will top The Massacre & Curtis

[AQUARIUM1984WTW]

DAMN I HAVENT SEEN THEM IN A MIN!

[Funasenbaer]

second!
