Comment:

50's Cent's legacy is as easy to spot as the Empire State building set against the New York City skyline. He's the chest-beating club conqueror who gave the younger generation their first taste of swagger. He was 2Pac blown up to Schwarzenegger proportions — an alchemy of East Coast tenement menace and syrupy West Coast groove. His DNA is permanently embedded in every '00s rapper from the Tri-State area on down to the Gulf of Mexico. Listen to Mims' "This Is Why I'm Hot," a hypnotic head-banger full of supreme confidence and surreal cool. 50 rapped like he exercised: relentlessly, making sure to hit every niche. He taught street rappers the importance of a big-tent hook and a repeatable catch phase. Ask Maino, the Brooklyn concrete king, whose gleefully taunting "Hi Hater" echoed the brash, behemoth rap that 50 perfected. With labels looking for skyscraper-sized personalities who could streamline their songs for mass appeal, Young Jeezy emerged as the trap-star, a wheezing, bone-crushing ATL icon — cold as his snowman logo but still able to sweeten his product on the Akon collaboration "Soul Survivor." After all, from Dirty South dons like Rick Ross and Yo Gotti to similarly semiautomatic New Yorkers like Saigon, Uncle Murda, and Papoose, 50 wasn't the gold standard, everything he touched went platinum.
