Before Fifty Became 50November 19, 2007 L. Patterson(Cleveland, OH USA) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
As many of you know a hip hop artist is hyped via the mixtape circuit prior to the drop of an actual album. Many use this same strategy to boost their worth during the negotiation process. That's exactly what this mixtape was. A hyping of Fifty before the more polished 50 came to Interscope.
That being said, there's something about the earlier gritty less perfected 50 that is extremely appealing. The stand out track from this "mixtape" being the final song Bad News. The hook is very catchy while the lyrics have you following 50 in a street life filled with all the accouterments of an aspiring hustla on his grind.
If you like to go back and read a favorite authors previous books or a movie producers early works then you'll wanna grab this CD from an emerging 50 Cent. There are 2 or 3 more of these that I copped back in the day. I can tell you as an average...not even close to avid 50 fan you won't be disappointed.

This mixtape hosted DJ Whoo Kid helped earn Fity an esteemed reputation on the streets of New York. 50 Cent proves he IS the future.
