50 Cent - Curtis (2xLP, 2007)

And, here's where Fiddy pretty much lost me.

As a rule, I try not to purchase albums that feature Justin Timberlake, Robin Thicke, or Akon. So, I had a hard time shelling out dough for this one. Upon first listen, I regretted it even more. The production is spotty at best, the guest spots are pointless, and songs like "Amusement Park" (it's a metaphor for fucking) are just embarrassing.

I don't hate "I Get Money" as much as I would like to, but "Ayo Technology" is easy to despise. And, maybe saddest of all, the song featuring Eminem ("Peep Show") is half baked at best.

50, phoning it in.

"Straight to the Bank"
