An entire KRS & PR album would be dope! Peace.

KRS would ruin 50 Cent like leaving play doh on your dresser does. I think 50's hot when he's on a diss. When he's in the studio, he can't rap he only swags. Power Of The Dollar was his only good album. But a KRS-ONE and 50 Cent battle would be dope. We all know who would win. KRS vs Nelly was a good battle, but nobody really really pays attention to nelly, where as now 50 if always in your face.

@nevawrong I agree with the fact that 50 can make some decent stuff when he tries. But here's the thing with being mainstream. Your singles reflect what the image of what you're advertising yourself as. It's what lures people in, and its what turns people off. Yes you should listen to an ALBUM before you judge someone's skill, but if you want to hold back on your singles, that's your fault. Both sides have blame.

@nevawrong well said i agree with you 100

[nevawrong]

50 represents the gangsta rap element of rap music. no different than what other rappers rapped about back in the days, such as - MOBBDEEP NWA M.O.P. MC EIGHT SNOOP LENCH MOBB TUPAC ONYX GILLY DA KID & many more. its just entertainment, & thats what 50 makes, entertaining rap. he's not concious, & i dont need every rapper to be concious like NAS, KRS, COMMON, & others. i love all styles of rap, from concious to gangster as well : )

no denial ,i think hes generic on a mic an aint done shit for the culture but get people into some money an image shit ,not what got me into this in the first place so no i aint got time for burger raps!

[duranward]

yo man pete was supposed to come to san bernardino but he didn't show. i was to mad.

[nevawrong]

thats because youre in denial about 50's lyrical ability, because the truth is, 50 do be spittin some decent rymes when he wants to.

its just that a lot of people like you are blinded by the few mainstream songs 50 made, but if u pay attention, all thru the years 50 was makin mainstream & underground hard mix tapes at the same time.

& thats why he's still relevent today, & his first album way back in 1999 was "POWER OF DA DOLLAR".

its now 2009, & 50's still here : )

[martynjhorne]

krs is far more accepting than me.....cos i wouldnt go near 50s music with a ten mile barge pole
