If I had done everything he has done in a music genre, I would enjoy a bit of recognition also. I was in an airport in Nicaragua and I told a coffee shop worker I was from NYC and the first thing they said was 50 Cent.. That was the first time I realized his impact.. Like his music or not, he has done great things...
A Grammy is a benchmark in a musicians career.. Ppl say record sales shouldn't matter.. if awards don't matter either.. how do you measure someones legacy?
I know I'm so sick of these egomaniacs who care about these stupid ass award shows! it's the most ridiculous shit. Who cares! If you want a Grammy then pay for it like Beyonce and Taylor Swift. they both suck and many artists deserved Grammy's over those two jokes but never got them. Beyonce has 16, lmao 16? They live for those trophys because they live for recognition so they'll get them. PAYOLA!
He should've taken a few lessons from his boy Eminem, who really didn't give a fuck about the Grammys, and was at home asleep when he actually won his first. (asleep, in a drug-induced semi-coma, same thing. Point is, he really didn't give a shit.)
It is kinda rediculous that he got 13 nominations and not a single trophy, and he definitely shoulda got best new artist in 03, who the hell else was there in 03 besides 50?
@waydecarney First of all, calm the fuck down, it's not that serious. Since when do album sales say who is the better artist? All that proves is you had superior advertisers. I've known many a artist who hasn't sold as much as mainstream artist but still kicks their asses in every other way talent-wise
@HowToGetFreebies no you dont, cause if you did then they would be were 50 is, no one has lyrics or spits like 50 no one. the dude is soooooooooooooo far outta other rappers league it would seem he owns rap! and when it comes to best new artist its all about the numbers mate! why else would he get upset!
@waydecarney Your argument is weak sauce, and I'll tell you why. Say two girls get raped. One of the girl's stories is played on the news, the other isn't. Does that mean one of the girls' rape was any less important than the other? Don't be a dumbass, numbers don't mean shit.
@HowToGetFreebies are u seriously comparing rape to album sales????? u need ur head cheeked buddy ur a wanker you have no idea what your talking about he sold 9 mil coz people herd his shit on the radio coz people liked what he done on the mixtape sence, you dont be a dumb ass u argent prick
@waydecarney you're right, taylor swift and beyonce only won because they paid to win, its virtually rigged, so ofcourse 50's angry because he's been cheated out of an award that he deserves.
@HowToGetFreebies Numbers in the TV dosn´t mean shit TO ME, i will agree on that. But damnit, stop trolling, and seek knowledge.. What do u REALLY KNOW ABOUT THINGS!!!!!!???? I bet u know less then ur talking u fucking ignorant!
Trophies are a symbol of accomplishment. Respect is desired by people who feel as though they are atop their genre. If MJ didn't get rings for winning championships it would piss him off. Like ya said, he has money and as an artist all that is missing is validation from the music community. Very understandable to be upset. *His last album doesn't deserve any Grammies though. It didn't exactly blow me away. But his debut album sold like 14million copies. How was he not the best newcomer
Im not a big fan of 50 but I must admit when he was coming up there was a hit after hit - window shopper, candy shop, just a lil bit, PIMP and others and he definitly was the biggest rapper out there at the time so it is quite strange he didnt get the Grammys
I don't like "rap" music, nor do I like "rappers"... but 50 Cent seems to be at least the only one with a brain. I Say this because, I remember he was promoting some book on his channel a while back... Instead of "crack," as most "rappers" typically would.
Your so ignorant. You don't know anything about rap other than whats portrayed on TV and thats only because thats the most popular type of rap i.e. Lil Wayne, Soulja Boy etc. If you did your research you'd know that everything you just said there was complete bullshit. Sure 50 Cent is smart but he's the only smart rapper? HA! Go and have a listen to IT, Mos Def, Lupe Fiasco + more? You think the only thing they do is promote crack? The only people that promote crack are the producers of MTV.
There is no need for you to list names of these clowns, because I'm not going to waste my time trying to decode their mindless drivel you call music. Especially for your sake. I'm entitled to my opinions, so I could care less what you think. Crawl back into the sewers from which you came from, I don't want to hear your long testament on matters I could care less about.
Exactly! If your not going to try, or have never tried than you have no right to form . I was just informing you, because your so misguided. 50 Cent . You say he's SMART? You know whats even worse! You think he's smart because you saw him promoting a "book" on his "channel". 50 has a channel? WHAT? SINCE WHEN? & The book he got some dude to right for him and he pays millions to have writing credits. I think thats just given us all an insight on to you. Lol and enough with the medieval insults.
Medieval insults? well... I guess I wasn't fortunate enough to learn some nigger dialect as you deem superior. As a result of my "medieval" language, I've ended up in one of the highest regarded Bioengineering schools on the planet. Were has your "ebonics" gotten you? as you've shamelessly displayed, trying to redeem yourself from your failures in life by demonstrating your great knowledge of insignificant matters such as the personal lives of "rappers."
50 has good music and frkn good punches. He beat the SHIT out of out of some dude yesterday night in LA after he called him a nigger , the guy was demolished. TMZ posted the video at tmzfights. com
These guys are talking like 50 cent is mozart and evanescence is some court jester getting the award. I'm not a fan of evanescence but 50 cent aint shit either.
50's record sales have been on a downward slope ever since the first album (which was a good album that sold 9 mill and is very hard to top). but no one except 50 expects to reach that 9mill mark again and so i think he is bitter that he will never be as good as he once was. thats why u always see him getting in WWE beefs with other rappers - to stay relevent. he actually said that his poor record sales for his recent album were due to bootlegging, yea like your other albums werent bootlegged?
he doesn't win because his music sucks...because he raps about the same "I got more money than your whole family combined" theme every frickin song.. or maybe because he's an egotistical prick... or maybe because he only sells because he's famous... like paris hilton sells because she's famous.. in other words, he's got no talent..
then again, maybe he's a lyrical genius that's way beyond his years and it's just that nobody can appreciate his music until a century from now..
fine fine... i'll go with immortal technique. u can't hate him. he tells you facts with some flow and a beat. not like most of the mainstream quacks that talk about getting blown and being rich in 90% of their songs
Why would any artist care about the Grammys? It's a non fan based award ceremony. It's just a bunch of old farts sitting in a room deciding what's cool or not.
i feel the majority of this video....... 50 says it often... "i get the check..... they get the trophys"....... the grammys are purposely boycotting him..... 0/13???....WTF???.....
I'm readin' all these comments and its all pretty moot, bcuz there r no relevant rappers any more. I mean, who is bringing anything musicly relevant today and concious - nobody!!! They' re all spin cycle "artist", & I use term lightly. They're no more than jus CELEBRITIES!
L.Hill - " come-on baby light my fire, music is suppose ta inspire"!!!
you gotta look at the underground. underground hip hop/rap has all the people who are actually good. the Strange Music label has amazing artists: Tech N9ne, Krizz Kaliko, Prozak, Kutt Calhoun
Shows how little TYT know about rap. I'm disappointed in JR.
50 Cent is pure garbage and has been for years. He's a tired act whose so boring he has to resort to silly feuds to drum up attention.
The sad part is that he got outsold by RICK ROSS! How the mighty have fallen.
The hypocrisy in this is that he's been nominated 13 times! Why are you crying about companies throwing money. Didn't they throw money for you? TYT missed that one.
Why is TYT sticking up for him? Dude fell off years ago.
Grammys is the most overrated award ever, you don't even remember who won after about 2 days
50 is rich he is on the damn Forbes List every damn year do he really need a Grammy plus his current songs and albums don't deserve any Grammys to be honest
Why do kids cry when they don't win the soccer championship? We live in an overly competitive society full of behaviorism. What do people expect? Love TYT tho lol
These artists sometimes spend their whole livelyhood in the record booth! Hours upon hours writing songs and listening to the beat get mastered and trying to hit that right note in your tone.
So yea, I can understand why 50 is mad as hell. I'd be mad too!
Thing is....these award shows aren't about the most selling artists...it's about the best. 50 has never been...THE BEST. That's just the truth.
Yeah I feel for that pocket change guy. He ranks right up there with Morricone and Shore....a real artist, (tongue in cheek symbol here). Pocket change guy's music will be remembered for 6 months at least.
50 cent is garbage anyway, im glad he didnt get the award again. i dont know why he sold so many albums, he is straight up terrible. he wanted the award so bad, then he goes" fuck the grammys" he doesnt even know what he wants. pathetic......
why would i listen to those emo punk rocker groups, is that what you do? im just saying 50 isnt all that great, he makes club music, none of his shit is real. ill admit i bought his first album "get shot or die trying" worst 12 bucks i ever spent.
my names tupac, doesn't make me a genius. For every 1 intellectual underground song you show me, I will show you 100 non intellectual underground songs, and could show you 100 commercial songs like that as well. When 1 out of every 100 songs is intellectual it doesn't define the genre.
It's honestly hilarious that you think you being named undergroundhiphop means anything. I'm gonna make an account called 16 inch penis just so i can talk shit.
See 50 cent turned the game into a numbers scenero. So i mean for him it was all about sales and bullshit, but i did like before i selfdistruct. that it was dope.
dude...HAVE YOU EVER LISTENED TO HIP HOP BEFORE HIM? All Rap/Hip Hop has ever been about is partying, hoes, murder, drugs, and cars with a a couple songs here and there that actually meant something.
I know..I hate people who try to paint hip hop like it's some super deep shit. It's my favorite kind of music, but 99% of it is pure party/sex/drugs/violence/hoodrat shit. It's not some beautiful form of art.
then you dont know hip hop you know commercial rap. Hip hop wasnt like this when it was created just like rock and roll is not like what it was in the 60s 70s 80s.
since when the fuck was hip hop around in the 60's? Now your makin shit up. I know rap as well as anyone else, and your joking yourself if you honestly try to say that rap is some hood story telling shit. Even go to the free stylers in the hood or anywhere else. ALL THEY RAP ABOUT IS DRUGS, VIOLENCE, HOES, AND MONEY. Just cus 1 rapper makes some song that is supposed to be heart felt doesn't mean shit.
huh? Once you turn off the shit off the radio, you'd be hard pressed to find drugs hoes and money in a Blu or Cunninlynguist album. I guess you really don't know hip hop. To understand anything, turn off your idiot boxes. All of them.
Nah...the whole thing that no one understands is that one fucken band or song doesn't define the genre. Even if 1 out of every 10 bands has some real touching ghetto story shit it doesn't make the genre one that actually means something. 90% of ALL RAP is BS, and you guys know this. I would almost argue that underground has less real shit than commercial rap. I have listened to a lot of rap also.
No, what I think is that out of the pie of media coverage, corporate backing, and radio play, the music that absorbs the most is the music that focuses on shit to sell. Lets be real sex, drugs, and money sells and always will. This is not exclusive to rap, what do you think rock and pop is about? The lifestyle of young rich musicians. And why you focus on this "intelligent" or "ghetto story" shit? I don't want to hear Snoop lecture me on accounting principles. Just put out good music. 50 blows.
really? my 240 rap songs consist of at least 60% stuff that mean something. and want to know an artist who tells stuff that matter? Immortal Technique. may not be the best in flows (Tech N9ne is better IMO), but he is lyrically the best rapper coz he knows whats hes saying and it makes sense
u don't have to attack other people's preference in music dick face. i can go on and on about any style of music, even if i disagree with wat i say, so back off. and i don't understand how rap is all about that
I might listen to a few 50 cent songs...but honestly I can't really mess with him. In the rap world he's always been the one start beef and throw disses...and that's negativity. Wonder if that plays a role in his griping on getting an award (hah) Any real hip-hop head will tell you that the King of New York in rap is Nas. 50 and Jay should bow down.
nas? the king? that dumb clown that married a dumb whore and is paying all that money like an idiot because he was to moronic to get a prenuptial? nas fell off years ago and hasn't had a classic album since illmatic. if you hail him as the king then that's on you. nas is a loser.
Haha. You know what...maybe you're right. I think Nas would really be "The God" of NY Rap. The King title would probably fit Biggie and the crown left with him when he passed. The move with Kelis might have been dumb (even 50 said it in the piggy bank diss) but in the end that's all their personal business. Oh yeah?..Try hearing It Was Written, I Am, and God's Son. I have Illmatic also but his talent never stop there. Don't let a line from a weak Jay-Z diss fool you.
god's son was insanely mediocre while it was written and i am were forgettable. calling jay z weak is "your" opinion but millions of people think otherwise. I have to admit that nas lyrically shitted on jay with ether but I don't see jay-z as the king on NY so that's irrelevant. Nas isn't the king. hell based on album sales alone it would be moronic to call him the king.
Truly, it's all subjective. I believe 50 & Jay are just not near lyrically on Nasir's level (Millions think otherwise). And ultimately time will tell of their status in the Hip-Hop culture and Music. Sure..if you wanna look solely at album sales then there are many other rappers that would just blow himp away. 50 and Jay have commercial Power. But Nas is still the rebel to it all and it shows through his music. (Not just Nas..I listen to other cats from NY also)
nas a rebel? that's a good one. but I do agree with what you said otherwise. I'm glad you aren't a moron like the rest of the clowns on here who can't have a normal discussion.
I don't think 50 cent or kanye give a rat's ass about those awards. They just make a big deal about it for publicity. 99% of everything celebrities like that do in public is an act. The only thing they care about is getting attention one way or another.
50 cent's "The Massacare" sold 10 MILLION RECORDS. Do you know how many awards he won? From ANYWHERE............NONE. NOT ONE. That's bullshit man I would understand why he would be pissed. He is blowing everyone else out of the water when it comes to sales but they don't acknowledge it with accolades.
It's all about ego.. Well I say give him an Award he really deserve it. He really wants to retire from rapping,Then watch him get an Oscar for acting or even Directing. I'll give him 54 months or less and he'll win an Oscar.
One of the most entertaining TYT videos ever. Keep up the great work you guys. This has all the classic TYT elements except for the gavel or other sound effect. Love any segment that includes JR perspective... and Ana (of COOOOUURRRSE!!!)
50 never stops being the biggest bitch in the industry. Didn't Rick Ross challenged him to fight him? Did he answered back? FUCK NO. The bitch nigga is a coward and a faggot for whining about winning Grammys. The Grammys don't need his crooked teeth bitch ass anyway.
fuck you mean evanessense sucks, 50 telling the truth it alll about the money when you promote your team wins like i seen muthafuckaz win grammys and emmy and not even show up off the strength of there name
Well, regardless if people agree that 50 Cent is a good musician or not, I can understand why he is disappointed. If you're in the music industry, of course you will want to win a prestigeous award like that, it's an honor. But just because you've been successful doesn't mean you're entitled to win a grammy.
If I had done everything he has done in a music genre, I would enjoy a bit of recognition also. I was in an airport in Nicaragua and I told a coffee shop worker I was from NYC and the first thing they said was 50 Cent.. That was the first time I realized his impact.. Like his music or not, he has done great things...
A Grammy is a benchmark in a musicians career.. Ppl say record sales shouldn't matter.. if awards don't matter either.. how do you measure someones legacy?

Shows how little TYT know about rap. I'm disappointed in JR.
50 Cent is pure garbage and has been for years. He's a tired act whose so boring he has to resort to silly feuds to drum up attention.
The sad part is that he got outsold by RICK ROSS! How the mighty have fallen.
The hypocrisy in this is that he's been nominated 13 times! Why are you crying about companies throwing money. Didn't they throw money for you? TYT missed that one.
Why is TYT sticking up for him? Dude fell off years ago.

These artists sometimes spend their whole livelyhood in the record booth! Hours upon hours writing songs and listening to the beat get mastered and trying to hit that right note in your tone.
So yea, I can understand why 50 is mad as hell. I'd be mad too!
Thing is....these award shows aren't about the most selling artists...it's about the best. 50 has never been...THE BEST. That's just the truth.

Lorenzo312 2 years ago
Nah...the whole thing that no one understands is that one fucken band or song doesn't define the genre. Even if 1 out of every 10 bands has some real touching ghetto story shit it doesn't make the genre one that actually means something. 90% of ALL RAP is BS, and you guys know this. I would almost argue that underground has less real shit than commercial rap. I have listened to a lot of rap also.
SJeverettSJ 2 years ago
No, what I think is that out of the pie of media coverage, corporate backing, and radio play, the music that absorbs the most is the music that focuses on shit to sell. Lets be real sex, drugs, and money sells and always will. This is not exclusive to rap, what do you think rock and pop is about? The lifestyle of young rich musicians. And why you focus on this "intelligent" or "ghetto story" shit? I don't want to hear Snoop lecture me on accounting principles. Just put out good music. 50 blows.
Lorenzo312 2 years ago
really? my 240 rap songs consist of at least 60% stuff that mean something. and want to know an artist who tells stuff that matter? Immortal Technique. may not be the best in flows (Tech N9ne is better IMO), but he is lyrically the best rapper coz he knows whats hes saying and it makes sense

I might listen to a few 50 cent songs...but honestly I can't really mess with him. In the rap world he's always been the one start beef and throw disses...and that's negativity. Wonder if that plays a role in his griping on getting an award (hah) Any real hip-hop head will tell you that the King of New York in rap is Nas. 50 and Jay should bow down.
ivan14wreck 2 years ago
nas? the king? that dumb clown that married a dumb whore and is paying all that money like an idiot because he was to moronic to get a prenuptial? nas fell off years ago and hasn't had a classic album since illmatic. if you hail him as the king then that's on you. nas is a loser.
ikyll 2 years ago
Haha. You know what...maybe you're right. I think Nas would really be "The God" of NY Rap. The King title would probably fit Biggie and the crown left with him when he passed. The move with Kelis might have been dumb (even 50 said it in the piggy bank diss) but in the end that's all their personal business. Oh yeah?..Try hearing It Was Written, I Am, and God's Son. I have Illmatic also but his talent never stop there. Don't let a line from a weak Jay-Z diss fool you.
ivan14wreck 2 years ago
god's son was insanely mediocre while it was written and i am were forgettable. calling jay z weak is "your" opinion but millions of people think otherwise. I have to admit that nas lyrically shitted on jay with ether but I don't see jay-z as the king on NY so that's irrelevant. Nas isn't the king. hell based on album sales alone it would be moronic to call him the king.
ikyll 2 years ago
Truly, it's all subjective. I believe 50 & Jay are just not near lyrically on Nasir's level (Millions think otherwise). And ultimately time will tell of their status in the Hip-Hop culture and Music. Sure..if you wanna look solely at album sales then there are many other rappers that would just blow himp away. 50 and Jay have commercial Power. But Nas is still the rebel to it all and it shows through his music. (Not just Nas..I listen to other cats from NY also)
ivan14wreck 2 years ago
