Yes he’s 500 on my list

Yes I agree I wouldn’t have 50 on any list as far as I care he was Eminem’s side kick

Yes cuz that list is garbage. Drake #8?!

Yes he is right

50 is better at music than lebron is at basketball Facts

He said 1 PM is night

Music mark's time but longevity is where reality comes into play.. Your favorite rapper is different from the best rapper

Garnish my wages

I always said this! I always said that any person who knows that rapper lists are usually biased and are based on opinion understood and spoke true wisdom.

He said "in the night time at 1 PM"

I say that all the time

He was always smart he learned to articulate more and got book smart as well.

Yes certainly it’s for his philosophical capabilities

So true…

#THAT PART😎

That's not true. That's like saying "you're beautiful as you are". There's levels to the game. LEVELS. Hot levels and dog sh*t levels.

This is a SUBJECTIVE topic not an objective one! Ergo, there is no such thing as the top whatever! Each person will have their own list, and no matter how much they argue, we won't all agree who has the "right" one!

⁠@@ihy.searchIt’s a slight mistake bozo, we’re human. The point he made still stands.

Facts

@@ihy.search wow don't be a hater you wish you are as smart as 50

Unless when he's mad at JA 🤣

I disagree. Your favorite artists come from earlier than your club years. Your music tastes are well established before then. I would say 14 to 16 is when you establish your favorite artists.

@@jpeoplesI do not agree with this, at all. Most of the artists I listen to at 15, I no longer listen to or rarely do. I believe your music taste solidifies closer to 20 than it does at 15. Either way, 50’s point stands. The music that’s bumping when you’re growing up is likely to be the “best” in your mind, but it’s all subjective.

@@allbottledup9513 yeah definitely a soundtrack to life. And in my defense my early rap was Pac and Scarface. My club/ college years was D4l. 😂

Shiiit, ain't 14 to 15 years old when you start clubbing? Ain't that when you start fuckin up? I'm 42, started fuckin up around 12 ('91), partying at 15 ('94), my best years was 17 to 20 ('96 to '99) and I was completely done by 25 ('04). I'm from Atlanta, grew up in Alabama, so I'm from the "The South got something to say" era.

That makes one of us

​@@Saveyourbstake notice of your name bri

@@realeyesrealisereallies97 hey save your bs! 50 is a top 1000 rapper

@@Saveyourbs check your comprehension skills bro. You can respect what someone says without liking their music

Me too

Bro ....effortlessly... spot on

He’s been philosophical look at that come up didn’t come easily he strategised

The list should be in five year increments

Was it humility? Or sensibility?

​@@RyMicTheKingI'd say about 70% latter, and 30% of the former.

@@mattycampybut the man has also been known to be the most petty human in existence. 😂 50 seems like a cool guy though and well spoken. I guess he just lets his intrusive thoughts win from time to time.

Bro 50 always shows humility whatchu talking bout ?

Damn that man always kept it 💯😅

Yeah, that is some on point shit.

Watson bro yappin about 💀

exactly. like he said for me Tribe Called Quest was the sound track of my 20s. This list when it comes to music IMO isn't based on sales, its what moves you. I won't say that your list is wrong and mine is right becasue both of our lists are personal to us

He literally said nothing new ..? It’s common knowledge A homeless man could’ve said that and you’d be “ 😪” but 50 saying it you’re all the sudden “😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱”

Lists are made from those propagating...💯👀

I've always had a belief in music tastes mostly forming at teen and early 20's age. I still play albums from the 80's and 90's much more than new output, even from groups/ bands/artists that are still around. A lot of it is because can tie those albums to events happening in life at the time, first kiss, first sub etc.

Oh yeah get rich or die trying on replay when I pick up them dumbbells lol

Nicki being on that list at all is wild

i noticed this and came straight to the comments to see if anyone else had any sense so thankfully you do haha

@@Lew-m97 HAHAHAH yoo im dying good call

Apparently you didn't listen to what he said.. of course Andre is more talented

They put her over Kanye

He's a cancer, he's smart. And even the biggest con artist have limits on actualzing bs. He's a bser, but even he has limits.

@@younglove3362bro i need the stuff you are on

Ironic on a conversation about how you can't rank things 😂

Yeah that’s true, but there’s no way in hell he’s above IceCube

Abso….lutely!!!!

This. This comment describes exactly what I was thinking watching him say, "That's not right."

💯

50s probably my favorite but I stopped really listening to him because i played it out been rocking juice world a lot lately

love him, how'd he get into television? would love to watch

@@JavaMava He produced a series called Power.

He went and caught his first fan base on the TV This beat hard

You could say his fans were patiently waiting I'll see myself out

Thats a good way to put it

NYC Lit

Yeah you genius😂

It’s slip of tongue lol. He meant 1am

Da club*

Well according to a Kiss song,"I wanna rock n roll all night. And party everyday." So, technically you can if you are rich or have unlimited resources. Or all of those plus you are young. Eventually you are old, broke, and eventually dead. As for being at a club at 1 PM, his songs are played at strip clubs. So, it could be a stripclub. I know I did that when I was young and had money.

💯

Black people hate when when you say this

50 always speaking facts..

How did you expect for him to sound?

@@byronp8158 "chyeeeahh! Gnome'sayin mang?"

1pm?

​@@dataphoenix8004Yes, 1 p.m. When we've been partying all morning and that fire song comes on at the club.

@@studkickass513you know thats am right?

Lol

We know what he meant

This was the best explanation I've ever heard. I've always rocked with 50 but he just keeps on amazing me as he ages.

This is called "The Jordan reasoning"

Nah, 50 ain't even top 50 in *MY* heart. I'd *maybe* place him somewhere in the top 75. 🤓

@@brandonowen9881 That is literally what he just explained. We're all different.

You are a very good writer my friend.

That's really the issue trying to rank it

You said a real bar my guy 🎉💙

I’d argue that Hip Hop is different than most other genres of music. 1. You can literally count how many syllables and rhymes rappers have in their rhyme schemes 2. Some rappers are objectively able to tell stories through their music (how good they are at this is somewhat subjective though) 3. You can count the amount of punchlines and wordplay (how good they are is also somewhat subjective). The quality of the music sonically (such as flow, delivery, beat selection etc) is subjective though and that’s where biases kicks in.

Diff. Styles flows some sing too others rap some is club some is street others are conscious. Some are groups some invented trends. It’s too much.

Why did you quote yourself though?

I agree. I enjoy listening to him talk, honest, intelligent talk.

read his book

Absolutely right on he knows how to relate or get ppl to understand he learned at some point understanding is far more valuable than being understood

Spot on

Same can be said about Busta Rhymes. Search for any of his interviews, its a treat listening to him.

And mood.

Supposed to be 1:am

I've noticed he starts chomping on his words when he speaks from time to time .. like when your walking and the toe of your shoe catches n drags making you take 2 or 3 retarded steps that make you lean forward as your walking.

​@@Random_Thingsonlythanks sherlock

I was looking for this 😂

@@MrDigztheswagking 🤣

Who list trash

@@yahabdall1 What 🤔? 🤣 He didn't make the list or a list. Listen closely again to exactly what the man says and said.

That’s why I always hate when dudes justify their top five with record sales or number of charting hits. All the answers are subjective. I want to know who speaks to you. That’s the interesting question.

Nas (QBs finest) is greatest rapper from New York.

I'm a 90s bay area rap lover I been loving e40 for over 30yrs and he still makes music I love he's still my #1.

I also think it’s a different conversation when you’re discussing favourites vs greats Pac doesn’t make my top 10, maybe even 20 for favourites, but I’m gonna need to hear arguments for why he shouldn’t be top 3 if not THE *greatest* of all time Disclaimer: I prefer lyricists and pac never bent words or had an insane flow like say, big pun, big L, Nas, big and slick Rick (in my opinion) are better storytellers Snoop has better party anthems AZ is easier to listen to But as for greatness, that’s what you bring to the sport outside the ring Same reason Ali is the greatest but he is not the BEST boxer of all time

Dmx will always be my favorite...and no matter what Era he's a beast...records sale performance, message I mean the whole works...regardless of his struggles

😂😂😂😂😂

Not as bad as Eminem saying "gender" when he meant "genre".

​@@Nominayword, I wondered if I was the only one to notice that.

@@Nominay thats because he made mgk switch genders...i mean genres. see it happens.

That's because 50 doesn't follow a script.

Yeah you're right a true dud lol

A dud indeed

Dude perhaps??! 😂

There hasn't been any artist since 50 at that level. It was remarkable. He was a watered down version of Michael Jackson. And nothing has compared since. Taylor swift and Beyonce are the next closest ones.

I agree, I remember when I first started clubbing & thinking "This is what I'm going to do forever!". About 3 years later, l saw the same people, doing the same things chasing the same types of women. It got old real quick, but at that period in my life. It was the time of my life!. But eventually we all grow up. Good memories though.🎉

​@@aaronday2122you said that like drake don't exist 😂 hate him or love him he got the game in a chokehold

@dastorm15 he trash imo. Doesn't write his own lyrics. Most of music isn't that good some of which he doesn't even live. He's definitely hot. But he's only like Kanye hot. My point still stands. There hasn't been an artist to do blow up like 50 or Em. Not in rap hiphop. Better sure. The only artists to be in that level have been Taylor swift and Beyonce. That's it. They're in a different stratosphere and when you look at the numbers you can't argue. The tweens across the world have serious buying power and give them influence.

@@aaronday2122 your point don't stand but your bias do and Drake has shown his pen with him writing for Kanye also one of the greatest 🤷🏽‍♂️

50 cent is wack & as an actor even worse SMH

Definitely not one of greatest musicians he had one dope album. His crew never got better. He’s not wack either as a rapper. As a person he’s smarter than people think he’s calculated look at the way he trolls

@willym420 I never said he's one of the greatest musician of all time but his analogy of who is the greatest musician of all time is practically one of the best explanations I have ever seen or heard

@@mattemere8021 Fully agree, he has a few songs I would replay, which is far more than Nicki Minaj or Drake. His wording of why those lists are such useless metrics is spot on.

kendrick and jay at top 2 is criminal maybe that's me being biased aswell but i don't rate them like that

And Busta Rhymes only at place 33? Nah ah Edit: added the word only

OVER ANDRE 3000 😂

Did you not listen what 50 said

What if it's not subjective and there really is a gold standard of what's good and what's absolute dog sh*t? Since most people agree music today is a disgrace to the culture, music from the past is of a higher quality and purer substance.

​@@leesog3203even if most people agree that music today is dogshit, that simply means there are more people from the past still alive than there are people of today. There can never be a definitive standard for art because if there is a definitive standard, then the thing wouldnt be called "art" anymore.
