Description:

50 Cent responds to the racy remarks made by CBS Radio personality Don Imus, and the backlash that hip hop has recieved in response to it. Such a hot bead issue was made into a hotpoint for news anchors to point the finger at the language used in hip hop music as the reason that stars like 'Kramer' and Don Imus has used the racist descriptions of black men and women in their shows.

Why do people use money as good argument to state that 50 Cent is better than the average dude or girl. 50 Cent is someone who has made a fortune rapping bout his past...he can give it up now. No one wants to knw bout your bullet holes.

Because that's how he makes money lol. If that's all he can do to become rich and famous, then God bless him, that's how he makes a living. I'm not at all impressed with his work after GRoDT, but if he's still selling records then he is doing something right.
