Thanks for being so active dude.
My vote goes to Graduation, I've never liked 50 a lot in the past but I was hoping this album was going to blow me away.
Curtis did, but for all the reasons I was amazed by how bad it was.
Graduation only has 2 tracks I can't stand while I can't even stand 2 minutes of Curtis.

agree to disagree. I just dislike kanye's lyrics and I think curtis got some good lines and shit. On the subject of the vitamin water, curtis' attitude to it is still streets as fuck. listen to the beginning of "i get money" curtis raps: "i took quarter waters and put em in a bottle, sold em for 2 bucks, coca cola bought it, what the fuck" or whatever he says. he's still street even when he's making all this money. thats why he;s such an appealing rapper. i think that he instead of TI or Nelly should have used the split personality thing. Because on one hand, there's 50 Cent the dude who will still kill and who makes a 187 look easy etc, and then there's curtis, the 2nd most successful business man of the year or whatever, and the man making the pop songs. its very interesting how he balances the two sides of his personality.

To be honest I have to agree with you on that. 50 is a very intelligent man, it's phenomenal that he came from where he was and is now one of the biggest rap superstars.
The split personality thing would have worked great for him too. 50 vs. Curtis would have been a nice album.
The biggest problem I had with Curtis was it was incositenet. One track he's talking about thugging and bugging then the next track he's singing with JT and Robin Thicke.
