50 Cent, Please Come Back To Earth!

Damn, I LOVE 50 Cent! No, not in the Lil Wayne way, but as an entertainer. No matter what happens he's gonna talk his shit and say whatever the hell he wants. Even with his career basically in shambles, 50 still tries to keep up the cocky front like he's still the shit when really everyone knows his day is over. I mean he's a smart dude so I KNOW he has to have realized somewhere in his brain that Kanye is gonna own him Sept. 11.

From the outside looking in its obvious, but at the same time you do have to see things from his perspective too. For whatever reason, he still thinks people actually give a fuck about what's going on with him like they did in '03, or '05 even. The real of the situation is that the 50 Cent allure has worn off and whether he wants to admit it or not its the damn truth (shout out to my nigga Industry). That's just natural progression coupled with Sir Isaac Newton's theory that what goes up must come down (well actually its not a theory, its the Laws Of Gravitation but it sounds better how I have it lol). It happens to all the popular artist that explode on the scene and sell bukoo records on their first joint from Nelly to Britney Spears, what goes up must come down. Britney's first album 14x platinum, her 2nd did 10, 3rd did 4.9, and 4th did 2. 50 Cent is not immune to this decline especially in today's climate of one-hit wonder, ringtone rappers and that's not to mention the huge hole The Game put in his armor last year with the G-Unot campaign.

I didn't mean to write so much but long story short, 50 needs to bring his swoll ass off his high horse and face facts! Artist that are about to sale a significant amount of records don't need 5-6 singles before their album drops to generate buzz (Interscope obviously has come to this realization which is why they keep leaking his records). And his last minute attempt to start beef with Lil Wayne (who is as about as insignificant as it gets when it comes to commercial sales) isn't gonna work. Sorry Fif, but your reign ended when you dropped The Game.
