A line from Still D.R.E.

Kept my ear to the streets, signed Eminem
He's triple platinum, doing 50 a week


At some point Dr. Dre said this, the part I don't understand is the 50 a week.

Does he mean he was still selling 50.000 copies of SSLP per week at that time? Or maybe that he's earning 50.000 dollar per week? Or does he mean he's doing 50 Cent once a week (just playing :p )

That's right.
"Proof, No matter how much time passes, not a day goes by that I don't think of you. If it weren't for you, I would not be where I am today and we both know it. I tried to write song for you but nothing was good enough, so I'm dedicating them all to you-and you'd be happy to know that I spazzed out on 'em gain!I know you wouldn't have it any other way! Fuck 'em all--let's get 'em!
P.S. I'm sober now, I know you'd be proud. I love you Doody, I'll never forget you. Love, Doody "
