After the jump, check out the foreword of Curt’s book with Robert Greene. Considering 50′s success, maybe other rappers should rip a page out his book too. The 50th Law drops September 8th.









Man, miss me with the fake Jay and B quotes already. Headlines. Some of you sites will do anything for attention and traffic. You really believed B would speak to Star magazine? Tuck your tabloid in. And why would Hov need to write a letter to his daughter? Bitch please. He wrote a song! It's called "Glory" and it's pretty fuckin' revealing. He went on the record (double entendre) but you still don't get it. You may hear baby Blue's first cries but no you don't know her height, weight or what she looks like. And no you ain't gettin' a flick, fool. Can new parents get some privacy? Even if they are celebrities. Sheesh! Who raised you animals? Party at the 40/40. Paps outside. Rushin' the velvet rope. Don't trip over your integrity.
Put us here if you like. The RR store stays open 24/7. SOPA? Yeah we Showcase Our Product Always. And we're gonna continue straight ahead til somebody up there turns out the lights. Start from scratch? I'm not afraid.
Cool Calculating Spectacle, boisterous and verbose in the public, with 10 chess moves in private.
How you are a young man and not pick up this book….Like we have never seen a man from the ghetto rise to this much wealth before our own eyes ever..well speaking for my generation..and i am 23…This guy embodies success,determination,desire and dedication
This looks to be something anyone trying to get they shit right should read.
But I don’t feel like Curtis is the one that should be expanding on Greene’s great works. I see how one could take him for a Makiavelian figure, but I just don’t see it. There are certain rules that are altered due to levels of melanin and perception and I don’t think 5-0 entertains nuance or enough history to reveal a truly iconic persona. I think luck has a lot to do with what has propelled him (no hate), but that doesn’t quite translate into the type of credibility & perspective this book requires. Shorter = This is Sean Corey’s territory…
I think this is gonna be a serious book. A modern day classic. I’m copping it.
