Negativity got him to a high point but also contributed heavily to his down fall.
black hiphop elite are/were jay-z, 50, nelly, usher, 2pac, murder inc, nolimit, cashmoney, diddy/bad boy. 50's up there with the best of them. if not better than them. he ain't no c00n. he was but now he ain't..:fif: realizing no one gives a fukk about him and needs everyone's stimulus package to stay even Nelly status

bobby shumrda has a hot record. hot records come out every quarter.. doesn't mean the artists are here to stay. bet you his record ain't even bigger than bobby johnson. we already forgot about que.Buy out Bobby Shmurda contract, sign him to the Unit (as a solo artist), let him cook the way he cooks & be tutored by Fif, Buck, Yayo & Banks...Reach this young corny demographic & get him to step his bars up...Sign Remy, correctly market and promote her as the Anti-Nicki/Iggy & develop the fukk out of both artists, then EAT.
They'll come flocking to sign.
well they are both victims of white supremacy. or are gonna be in the very near future.Nah, not even likely. Whats in it for Kanye?
the music/entertainment industry loves to build and destroy. they love the negativity. that's all what's mostly posted on these hiphop sites.Negativity got him to a high point but also contributed heavily to his down fall.

remy ma like all rappers outta jail are hot the first month they're out and disappear eg turk, mystikal etc....
i said what i said because you said 50 should sign bobby. and you mentioned remy ma in your post. you probably mentioned them cause you're in ny and that's what's buzzing over there. outside the east coast no one really cares about them like that and no one really knows who bobby is. 'might be a little familiar with the song but it's not a national song like that just yet. i know it cause i listen to east coast online radio. k camp is bigger than bobby nationally.No shyt. I think you missed my point. I'm speaking from a purely capitalistic/business perspective. No one said OMG BOBBY & REMY THE NEXT HOTTEST THING! OMG OMG THEY HERE TO STAY!
Anybody in their right mind will see taking a chance on either one as a risk, and not for nothing, not too many labels could pull off signing/knowing how to manage the two, They'd inevitably lose money, and create two rappers disgruntled with their situation/postion within the industry. But with them signing to 50, the two of them would undoubtedly be RESPECTING & WORKING for their label boss, which is why the move by 50 would be a plausible one. The access to his resources alone makes it a good move. They may or may not be one hit wonders now, (remains to be seen), but 50 made TONY fukkING YAYO a Gold artist. (I'm aware that more records were selling in 2005, but piracy wasn't in it's infantile stages, and Yayo's not that ill of a rapper. It's a testament to 50's ability to parlay his own successes into successes of his comrades.)
With that said, he'd be the perfect fit for either of the two. They are both "street" artists with a degree of authentic, verifiable credibility (as is 50). If ANYONE can market them, it's him. Seeing how the game is now (not catered towards "street" music, moving more and more closer to becoming pop/gay by the minute, and that there's basically a general (but muted) consensus that the game is too soft right now, 50 not only could take advantage of what's become a niche market, but use it to his advantage to market his own new musical endeavors. Could possibly even change the landscape of the game, like he did in '03. Also not to mention, NY would be "back." (Don't even ask me how.)
Under 50, Rem & Bobby would not only thrive having a FORCE behind them, but a mentor who would actually be ABLE to make legit stars of them. They'd both become wiser, and be MILES ahead of any new competition in those terms. Pretty much the same result (but polar opposite) of what Wayne's done with Drake.
There's no way the logic in that is flawed, no disrespect. I know you don't really care for street music, and for what it's worth, I've outgrown it myself, but with age/wisdom comes the ability to discern, and see music as just that. I feel what you're saying, b/c it no doubt influences the youth, but from a business perspective, it's a perfect move for all parties involved. It'd just hit 50's pockets moreso now, more than had he still been signed to a major.

positivity will or should always win but the way these niccas are set up if you have too many egos they're gonna explode on each other. so while i hate the "hater" songs the hate is real when someone's successful. the paranoia in hiphop is ridiculous but real..
negativity isn't going anywhere. it's part of current hiphop.
from a "capitalisitc"/"business" perspective. imo 50 shouldn't even think about signing or dealing with music. he's bigger than the music biz. he could invest in himself and make more money and build himself up than spending it on another artist. all his "coli" "failed" songs and albums are probably netting him more than your average rapper.No shyt. I think you missed my point. I'm speaking from a purely capitalistic/business perspective. No one said OMG BOBBY & REMY THE NEXT HOTTEST THING! OMG OMG THEY HERE TO STAY!
This nikka done survived a lot of real shyt that most rappers have never even been through...
Why not believe him??
The G-Unit against the world mentality was no different than what the average hood crews do on the street level when they are trying to come up....
There will always be casualties in learning how to be a functional adult in society...Especially when coming from a background like 50's...
He made his money and seems to be maturing....
Let him be
How has Ross made it almost a decade again?
I mean, I like dude's music but he is a cartoon character.
Atleast 50 was credible in that aspect...
I mean, the way the nikka hustled from 1998-2003 is impeccable.
50 a real hero to me though...don't get it twisted.
As an African man I realize how powerful hip-hop is and has been to show the world the power and essence of black people in general.
This man went from being a street nikka hustling and robbing to being worth almost $500 million dollars.
I'd rather respect someone like that then some silver spoon ass nikka who had an easy life. They don't want nikkas like that with any sort of power and he broke through the matrix. These nikkas made me realize the power of the black man in America. Like Pac and Biggie...from rags to riches.
That's why I think the industry been trying to shut down the street side of hip-hop...make it watered down...so the voices from the realness of the black community could be silenced from making any potential moves.
Ross on the other hand, is a joke and an actor at best selling wolf tickets.
He makes good music...but it is what it is. How anyone can call this dude a so-called "real nikka" is truly beyond me. Dude is Gusto 2.0. He doesn't even admit to that too...
50 ain't a lie...and never was. That's all I got to say.
Yea Jay Z never beefed with several NY artists and had people blackballedFif just re-enforced stereotypes and destroyed many talented black men's careers for his own gain on some crabs-in-a-barrel shyt. Someone should follow Jigga or Kanye's blueprint to success or even Nas for the sake of longevity. He destroyed NYC rap and gave the commercial south the opportunity to take over, which harmed the rap game beyond repair.
