Man, I should kiss you or something!
Fifty is a perfect examle of the powers of promotion. Here's a guy who can't rhyme, frequently collabo's with dead rappers and is produced by someone else, and yet he is selling like those proverbial hot cakes. The novelty is the fact that he's been shot nine times. It's supposed to be a miracle he's alive. Tell me, does seven shots in the leg, one in the jaw and one in the chest (not heart) automatically mean you should die on the spot, with no chance of survival? Nope, but that's what so many people believe. It's just a novelty that's helping him to sell.
Fifty Cent is a popstar proper. It's just that he does 'rap'.
ps sorry bout the triple post, but I haven't really read through the whole thing yet...
