Disrespectful views at Tha Kang, T.I.? Nah, Ms. Banks you're out of line. Yeah Harris' Aussie ain't that dope but neither are you. I just saw you at Coachella and I wasn't impressed. You got the look, the swag, the tough talk but where are the tunes? "212" is alright but that's where it stops. According to Jay-Z's old board rules: You have no right to diss Tip. Look in the mirror and ask yourself: How many classic albums have you created? Are you on anyone's top 10 MCs list? Do you have any hardware on your walls, ma? Cliff is right. Keep him out of the girlfight. You're heavy in these tweets, but I hope you're finding time to create music that backs up your buzz. Or you'll soon be begone like Kreayshawn. You young ladies today bore me. *Turns up Mia X CD* No Limit forever!
The best things in life are free, but hopping on Hov's press conference stage uninvited is gon cost cha. Whatcha did was wrong! ⎯B.Dot
makeup can cover tattoos
Shit is crazyyyyy!!!
but he’s back in shape. I just saw the nigga couple days ago..
Cosign @Wow
I know right, the nigga went Gold yet he flopped? I dont get people. But maybe its just by his standards its a flop. Eminem going Gold on a album would definately be a flop in most people eyes. But flopping is what Fat Joe did, and is prolly gonna do again cuz i dont see anymore than 8000 people buying his album again.

god damn! that dedication hahaha
cosign young hov ……….. e.t. go home
Damn 50 Give Eminem His Drugs Back Please
Bow !
DAMN CURTIS IS DEFINITELY SERIOUS ABOUT ACTING…I APPLAUD THAT MAN EXTREME FOCUS FOR THE CRAFT….BUT DAMN HE LOOKS SCARY :-)
50 Taking To Many Eminem’s
Ha !
Holy shit!!!!!!
I might have to check this out, he obviously put some time and energy into this, picture reminds me of Christian Bale in that movie “The Machinest” where dude couldnt sleep or eat and he lost like 80 pounds or summin
this is insane.
*face palm*
All of that and the nigga STILL can’t act for shit!
Damn, epic fail eminent..
WAIT FOR IT!!!!
That’s What the Album Sales Do To Ya
Interscope Check Your Boy

it’s not that bad… RapRadar just widened the pics vertically…
Reminds me the movie “The Machinist” with Christian Bale.
BISD didn’t flop. The only problem for 50 is that he had previously made fun of other people’s record sales & then got outsold by Rawse. By his standards it flopped…your mouth got you in it.
^^^ ……smh a lot of LOL’s
@ Fred Durst
50 himself said he was having tattoos removed so he could get more acting roles, thats him bruh
I bet 50 will get alot more movie work after this, because it definatly shows that he’s dedicated, More money in movies anyway and we all know 50 cares more about money then anything
fake pic
Damn that’s nasty. Ain’t no girl gonna come onto him now.
Oh and RR please ban biggar for life.
where did his tattoos go?
Hahaha i needed a laugh so i came back to look at the pics.Sick shit
Now this is just tragic…………….. nicca look like he got HIV man
Hid did all this ish for a STRAIGHT TO DVD movie?! EWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lol, I can just hear the disses now!
what the fuck!? o___o for real though? wow he looks like he on some crackhead shit
Nigga Crazy
movie role… lame excuse for being hiv positive!
thata wat happens wen u stop taking steriods
^^^all u mother fcukers KNOW u will never make wat 50 cent is making…GET RICH OR DIE TRYIN, is still his way. wake up bitches and stop wish bad on d man…
yes we cud laugh but…….
I didn’t even think that was fif, shit is comedy, he looks like an earthworm. He got the tats removed, lost 100 pounds, and looks like a crackhead, It’ll suck for 50 if this movie goes str8 to dvd
Wow now thats hard work. He look like a skeleton
AH SHIT NIGGA U ALREADY RICH THERE’S NO NEED TO DIE NOW! U ALREADY MADE IT!
fake . no tattoos = ]
all these comments an no one points out that the pics are clearly photoshopped?
He’s a sausage!
50 lost
50 got Oskar !!!
[...] film drops to see if that same feeling is translated on screen. Check out more flicks over at the Rap Radar [...]
Smart move for this dude to reinvent himself.
50′s music career is over and he got panned widely as an actor back when he was really just an image created for music sales. The hip hop bad guy. Freddy Kreuger with a mic.
Now by dramatically changing his appearence people will give him another shot at hollywood which his best shot at extending his fame and the consistent dough that will bring.
It doesnt make him a good actor although altering your physical appearence drastically as he has could help him in actually becoming a role.
He’ll take criticism and jokes, but he’s on strong footing. Will smith got on his knees in six degrees of seperation to be taken seriously as an actor. It hasnt turned out too bad for him.
Another example of how 50 uses laws of power to win. Anyone betting against this dude has lost more than they have won. scoreboard.
Like the dedication is just unreal. You have to respect a man who is dedicated at so many levels….Forever King
Wowzers. This better pay off.

@flyingdutch808
50′s music career is over <—— Ur Dumb….lol
Where are his tatoos ??
This is on some Bobby DeNiro/Raging Bull shit.
Or, since he lost weight, a Christian Bale/The Machinist comparison would be more apropos.
Get Rich or Die Tryin’ was on EBT, uh, BET last night and it made me think about this cat’s film career. He’s not much of an actor, but he keeps getting roles. Hopefully, this project reveals a range we never knew Curtis had. Plus, he’s not playing a rapper/gangster, so that’s good.
Hate means nothing to such dedication.
This is Oscar worthy if he acts the role well. WOW
I can’t even loose 10lbs in 10 weeks.
This dude really shows his persistency, it’s clear he didn’t just become 50 Cent the superstar by luck. All hard work.
Props
damn that first pic looks just like dmx
