what people are saying

50 talks on his collaboration with Wisin and Yandel, and he speaks about his current struggles in hip hop. In the article with Billboard Magazine he states: "What I fell in love with and inspired me to get into hip-hop is dwindling away," he explained in an interview. "I'd like to be a representation of that, because there isn't much of that left. I think people are so conscious of the numbers they're not being creative anymore. I've received nothing but positive feedback on this collaboration. And it's a surprise because it's playing in a space where you wouldn't traditionally hear 50 Cent. It's exciting and it's a whole new charge of energy for the person that is tuning in...I wrote, directed and produced the project. With the purchase of the CD you get the film. I wanted my audience to see it, because I was inspired by what I wrote on the album...I feel music marks time, and there's a lot of great music being made now that doesn't completely match the time period...When these guys finish mixing I'll finish making the decisions. People look at my projects as if it's only 50, but it's really 50 Cent up to Dr. Dre and Eminem standards. (Billboard) This is not the first time he has said this, and it just seems that he needs to switch his hustle into acting or something.
