people get their legs n arms amputated n they win gold medals in the Paraolympic Games. the fact that he raps with his mouth shot isn't nothin special in these days..

50's not categorized as a handicapped rapper.

cut him some slack with the way he talks.

i'm pretty sure that he could improve pronunciation/diction if he had some training, but that's a purely theoretical debate so there's really no point discussing it - but it's really not a sound argument to me to say that we should judge his rapping less harshly because he's been shot in the mouth, he's "competing" on the same terms as everyone else n should be judged on the same terms as everyone else

i mean, going back to the handicapped thing, if a kid was recovering from a broken leg or something, you wouldn't expect him to run at full speed 100%.

hmmm... that was a bad example.

okay, here's a better one. like in basketball (work with me, if you don't like sports. it's the only thing that pops to mind ), they had a slam dunk contest.

and this one player, nate, he's really short. i mean, he's kinda got the disadvantage cuz he's not the normal sized player, especially a play that dunks. his opponent, arguably, had the better dunk, but the fact that he was short gave him that little something. so the judges didn't go too hard on him and he won the contest. know what i mean? (probably not, but i did the best i could )

i'm not saying 50 is the best rapper, cuz he's not. but due to his history, it's human nature for people to look at that and have that play a part in the way they view them.

i've no idea what u mean with the basketball dunk thing but that's just cause i honestly don't think that he should win if the other player had the better dunk - i just suck at differential treatment, sorry

but the short thing i can totally relate to though

and i do know what u mean about 50 n i didn't mean to sound like a bitch n make fun at him because he was shot, i know it probably has an impact on his vocal skills but i honestly don't think he's that great n for me his diction/pronunciation is a big part of it - hmmm, maybe we can just agree that 50's not the greatest rapper? :unsure:

as long as u don't think he can act... u don't do u? :shifty:

yes, 50 isn't the greatest rapper. but it just kinda bugs me how everyone takes cheap shots at him now, when a few years ago, everyone seemed to love him. i'm not saying you used to love him back then, but i just find myself defending him whenever that happens.

and the movie... the only thing i can say is that, it was better than what i expected. but then again, i didn't expect much. get my drift?

lol yeah i get ur drift

n i've never loved him - just his tattoo :shifty:

by **yoshi** » May 13th, '06, 19:49

^ yeah, just to have the satisfaction he was called a bitch :shifty:

i don't think this movie is entirely based on 50 this time

it could be worth it.

maybe ur right... Sam Jackson's worth a watch... maybe i can just close my eyes n ears whenever 50's on screen... i just still can't understand why someone would sign him for another movie though :confusion:

by **yoshi** » May 13th, '06, 19:54

me either.. maybe he has paid to have another chance lmao :shifty:

by **Rob** » May 13th, '06, 20:27

Em reckons he's the best rapper around and that was before he blew.

by **Curious** » May 13th, '06, 20:39

^first of all, does that make 50 the world's greatest rapper?

secondly, if em ever meant that he must've been drunk n stoned at the same time - i can mention 20 rappers off the top of my head who beat 50 by a mile - he'd say stuff like that just to boost 50's ego, they hype each other, that doesn't mean that 50's the greatest rapper on the planet
