50 Cent is now a full two dollars, according to pop culture exchange rates. His sheer influence on music charts, and thugs hearts, changed things. So why then on Massacre is the 'hood drama that one would think he'd want to leave behind even more front-and-center than on Get Rich or Die Tryin'? It's hard to say, but 50's developed a questionable gun fetish here. With firearms plastered all over the liner notes, and throughout most of his lyrics--on "In My Hood" he retorts "…I don't go nowhere without my strap"--apparently his nouveau rich status has only accelerated the number of enemies he's accumulated. On "I'm Supposed to Die Tonight" he even awkwardly forecasts Notorious B.I.G.-like, Tupac-ian rap game death scenarios. "Piggy Bank," a virtual diss fest further cements his "How to Rob" persona as Nas and Fat Joe get the lyrical smack down; so does A-list actor Vivica Fox ("Get In My Car") for even daring to consider their rendezvous to be anything more than a fling. Despite beat contributions from Aftermath hombres (Eminem, Dr. Dre), some of the better beats come courtesy of lesser-known beatsmiths like Disco D ("Ski Mask Way") and the always consistent Hi-Tek, whose "Ryder Music" is a sick concoction of keys and haunting vocals. At 22 tracks (with no inane interludes), it's worth the loot, but it doesn't cover up 50's artistic regression since Get Rich. --Dalton Higgins

 50 Can't Be Stopped September 7, 2005

50 has done it again. The Videos are awesome they truly show the greatness of all of his songs. At the end of the PiggyBank video he shows the Game in some rather compromising positions. Got to freeze frame it to see it. There is even a preview of his new Movie and Video Game. You got to pick this up even if you already have the CD.

With the upcoming release of his movie 'Get Rich or Die Tryin' and his video game 'Bulletproof', there is no stopping 50 Cent. And with the re-release of his recent CD 'The Massacre', 50 has included a DVD that contains video clips for each of the 20+ songs on the album. These range from clever animation (In My Hood, Piggy Bank) to the more typical clips we expect from rap stars (Candy Shop, Just A Lil Bit). With the addition of a great remix of the repetitous 'Outta Control' track from the original CD, 50 has used Dre's proven production skills and paired up with the latest G-Unit stablemates, Mobb Deep, to put a fuel injection into the re-release. The 'Outta Contol Remix' already has clubs pumping around the world and is steadily climbing the Billboard chart. 'The Massacre' remains the highest selling CD for this year with almost 5 million copies sold in America alone. With the clever idea of a re-release that includes a DVD and film clips to every track, this is one product that is sure to fly off the shelves and put a few more pennies into 50's piggy bank.

The Massacre special edition is good value, it has a dvd with all the vidoes to the album plus a new track.
However there is one major flaw - only 21 tracks instead of 22, the "Outta Control Remix" is on here instead of the original as well. For some this might be a good thing but for me it is not, not that the remix is a bad song just the old one was better (and Mobb Deep don't add much to the track at all). Also there is no "Hate it or Love it Remix", i can understand why with 50's beef with the game and all but hate it or love it remix was the best track on the album!!
All in all, the special edition is a better buy than the regular because of the DVD but if your in for the music, go the original massacre - it's better.
A review of the videos on the DVD September 17, 2005

there is a video for every song on the regular album (except the hate it or love it g-unit remix). for the singles that have been released, candy shop, just a lil bit, outta control remix feat. mobb deep, they put the official videos on the dvd. for the other tracks, they are low budget videos. mostly they are fiddy in the hood, his cars, or the studio. my biggest complaint is that the videos are not synched up with the audio. it looks ridiculous to see fiddy's lips moving like in some badly dubbed kung-fu flick. the only video that was well done (outside the "official" videos) is "so amazing" with olivia where the audio is actually synched up with the video. why'd i give it 4 stars? i think it's still worth your money if you haven't bought the album. but if you already purchased the massacre and were looking for new hot videos for the other tracks, you will be disappointed. my suggestion would just have been to do live studio performances of the songs that weren't released as singles, something like "sessions at AOL."
