On this day in 2003, 50 Cent dropped his debut album “Get Rich or Die Tryin”
The hype for 50 was real and from front to back he was on fire helping him debut at number 1 selling 872,000 copies the first week eventually going 9x Platinum.
Just two years later, 50 released The Massacre, selling over 5 million copies, claiming the 21st spot on the list of highest selling rap albums of all time. In that same year, his debut album would later turn into a movie with the same name, Get Rich Or Die Tryin’, providing a visual representation to all of the things 50 spoke about in the album. The early 2000s inevitably earned him the Rookie of the Year award and clearly, this man was no bust.
Get Rich Or Die Tryin’ would receive a Grammy nomination for Best Rap Album and only lose to the highest selling album of all time, Outkast’s The SpeakerBoxxx/The Love Below. If any, the well-deserved accolade would be redefining gangsta rap in the early 2000s and simply put, giving us one of the best albums hip-hop has ever seen. So on this day, in all appreciation, we toast up to the birthday of ‘Get Rich Or Die Tryin
Which album production was better?
BEGOTTEN - IDENTITY CRI$I$ [EP]
Malevolence - Malicious Intent [OUT NOW]
Continue growth since original lineup reunion. Happiness Is one of favorites of year it came out. Album much continuing on current style. Love punk rock feel of Death Wolf, Tidal Wave, and others. Still true emo style in songs like We Don’t Go In There. Much long term loving dynamic between Nolan and Lazzara. Maybe not as fully consistent as last album, but very strong album. 3 ½ paws up.
August 31st, 1987: 29 years ago MJ released his BAD album. The album produced five Billboard number one singles. Bad peaked at #1 in thirteen countries and charted within the top twenty in other territories. The album also won two Grammy Awards and it’s tour broke world records.
- Record-setting gross of over $124 million made during the tour from September 1987 to December 1988.
- Most successful concert series, The tour sold out seven nights at Wembley Stadium, London, England.

Seven years ago today we lost the biggest artist the world had ever seen. Michael Jackson was one of those rare original artist’s that appreciated the legends before him and showed that in his work. Michael didn’t steal from other dancers or musicians. Instead, he watched what they did and how they did it. He then took those moves into his own hands and turned them into something new and unique.
Michael soon went on to break records set by his predecessors and smashed them to pieces. He was always respectful to other artists even when they hated on him. Overnight Michael became a “freak” because he was a success, But somehow he always found a way to smile and find the good things in life. He was a very rare person and musician. It’s only a shame after the 2000′s and the release of Invincible he became so quiet due to problems with Sony and other contracts.
Even during his troubles in the 2000′s he never stopped writing or recording which was revealed to us by his untimely death. The amount of songs he left in his vaults will last a lifetime, until the end of time people will never forget who or what Michael Jackson was. A person, A Dancer, humanitarian and a Father. However, the amount of things he did release will last us a lifetime and may i say.
What a bad ass discography to leave us.
