Correct me if I'm wrong, but we haven't had another Wanksta-era 50 cent type of artists in almost a decade. Wayne came close, but he was garbage by the time the world realized who he was. Do you think there will ever be another 50? (don't take that literally )

Drake, Minaj both debuted in the past 3 years.

A 50 cent doesn't come through every year that's a rare occasion, having the fastest debut album in musics history. Since 98 we had Nelly, 50, Kanye, Drake, Minaj, Eminem, DMX, Wayne all spread out quite well.

There has to be a #1,
It's like pop fans saying where are Beatles and Michael Jackson :childplease:

Besides that I think music has a lot more artists with fame cause labels can't control the flow of artists anymore. Someone like Joey Badass might have 100,000 fans all over the world that would be impossible 10 or worse 20 years ago unless the labels wanted it.

Jay and Kanye were never stars to the level of 50. I'm speaking from what I seen/heard from when I was in highschool in 2000/2001. bytch the internet wasn't poppin like that back then. So you are speaking from your dumb ass internet opinion. nikkas in San Antonio wasn't doing shyt but bumping zro and 50 at that time and wasn't nobody on no damn computer..... we were in the hood talking about that shyt. Aint nobody I know geeked up about no damn Jay and Kanye but nikkas like you on the internet
