Man. I'm sorry. But that's just ... bullshit. Actually it's racist.
Curtis Jackson is a business man who, according to court records made $33M last year. Les than 25% of that came from the sale of records through Interscope.
The rest of his income came from his various business ventures.
His company currently has an agreement with Interscope to distribute records for his G Unit label.
When that expires he will go back on the marketplace and allow other distributors to bid for the right to distribute his music and the music of the artists who work for him.
Curtis Jackson may be one of the top 5 black businessmen in the country. He is breaking barriers in business, marketing and finance like Jackie Robinson broke barriers in baseball.
Yet you have a Pavlovian like need to reduce what he and others like him have accomplished to merely - working for Iovine or a corporation.
Why do you need to believe that?
It's almost like you don't want to believe these cats have escaped the plantation.
I'm sure it is safe to say a larger share of your income comes from the corporation you work for than does Fiddy's. How you going to accuse him of something that you may be more guilty?
Tell the truth - if he looked like Harold Ford Jr., wore a suit and had a degree from a white university you would be working on his campaign for President.
I work for an LLC, not a corporation. (err, just playin').
You're right, he doesn't only work for Iovine, he has cross-marketed his Iovine-generated brute negro ethos and now he does commercials at the orchestra. (The implication of the commercial is that this nigger is big enough to hang with us rich whiteys).
Like I said, I give him credit. He's not dumb. He's talented. When he starts saying something more meaningful, I'll start listenin'. . .
Money ain't a thang. He's paid by Neocons just like Barack is.
who said i don't hate HBO. you don't see me commenting on the finale of the Soprano's. i couldn't name one character beyond Tony. that's his name right? i can't even name another show that comes on HBO. i hate it all. all the sambo, coonism circulating on the airwaves. I'm hardcore! i don't even watch CNN LOL i hope you picked up on where i intentionally went over the edge.
"Oh Shit! ... GMO Food Sterilizes People ... And It's Really A Form of Population Control?"
"There was of course no way of knowing whether you were being watched at any given moment. How often, or on what system, the Thought Police plugged in on any individual wire was guesswork. It was even conceivable that they watched everybody all the time. But at any rate they could plug in your wire whenever they wanted to. You had to live—did live, from habit that became instinct—in the assumption that every sound you made was overheard, and, except in darkness, every movement scrutinized."

"In searching for a new enemy to unite us, we came up with the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine and the like would fit the bill ... All these dangers are caused by human intervention and it is only through changed attitudes and behaviour that they can be overcome. The real enemy, then, is humanity itself."

IS THIS LITTLE GUY A PERSON?
The founders of the American state understood that the proper functioning of a democracy required an educated electorate. It is this understanding that justifies a system of public education and that led slaveholders to resist the spread of literacy among their chattels. But the meaning of "educated" has changed beyond recognition in two hundred years. Reading, writing, and arithmetic are no longer sufficient to decide on public policy. Now we need quantum mechanics and molecular biology. The knowledge required for political rationality, once available to the masses, is now in the possession of a specially educated elite, a situation that creates a series of tensions and contradictions in the operation of representative democracy.

"We should hire three or four colored ministers, preferably with social-service backgrounds, and with engaging personalities. The most successful educational approach to the Negro is through a religious appeal. We don’t want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population. and the minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members."

"At present the population of the world is increasing at about 58,000 per diem. War, so far, has had no very great effect on this increase, which continued throughout each of the world wars.. War has hitherto been disappointing in this respect, but perhaps bacteriological war may prove effective. If a Black Death could spread throughout the world once in every generation, survivors could procreate freely without making the world too full. The state of affairs might be unpleasant, but what of it?"

*George Orwell (1903-1950) English novelist, critic
Men can only be happy when they do not assume that the object of life is happiness... If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear... The great enemy of clear language is insincerity... The quickest way of ending a war is to lose it... To see what is in front of one's nose requires a constant struggle... For a creative writer possession of the truth is less important than emotional sincerity.

Interesting. 50 is definitely a smart man. But isn't he part of "the system?" I mean, he works for Iovine and Interscope. That's pretty "system-ish".

...I just got some sincere respect for 50...
damn...
*shaking head in disbelief*
all this says is that he knows better than to sell us out the way he does with his "Iovine-generated brute negro ethos". (thanks J)
DV and soteria, y'all can keep swinging. I'll pass.
Kalena,
Come on sista. You haven't addressed the operative point of the man's statement.
If you've made up your mind to hate, because you simply need somebody to blame - so be it. That's cool.
If not, of what is he guilty of, that thousands of other artists, film production companies, playwrights, TV directors are not guilty?
How can you hate Fiddy, and not hate HBO?
who said i don't hate HBO. you don't see me commenting on the finale of the Soprano's. i couldn't name one character beyond Tony. that's his name right? i can't even name another show that comes on HBO. i hate it all. all the sambo, coonism circulating on the airwaves. I'm hardcore! i don't even watch CNN LOL i hope you picked up on where i intentionally went over the edge.
