Half Dollar Says FUCK The Grammys!

50 Cent told MTV the following:

"Man, f**k the Grammys! I couldn't care less about the Grammy Awards. It'll be the Beyoncé and Taylor Swift show. I guess they'll both be performing at the awards show, which means their record companies will be spending money to raise the production values of the entire show. And when you spend that kind of money you're supposed to get trophies."

Kayne, anyone?

Whatever. It's his typical 360 spin.

Totally agree. He's more fickle than anyone I've ever seen.

Not that the Grammy's hold much weight anymore (there are too many awards in too many categories given out each year. Grammy's should have fewer awards per year, or be done once every 3 - 5 years instead of every year).

But 50... his first album was the depth of what I enjoy out of him. He's had a couple songs that sound ok on the radio, but musically... no point in worry about what you aren't entitled to.

Is he that dumb that he doesnt even know the cut off points to be considered? he was out long after the cut, not that he deserved anything for his horrid new record, but still, arent you supposed to be somewhat smart?

He's just upset that he can't get one and will never get one.

Indeed. Fiddy is just lashing out because he knows he'll NEVER get one.

He really won't. The last "song" (I use the word loosely) I remember him having was that horrible song with Justin Timberlake and Timbaland, "Ayo Technology". What a horrid piece of shit. I'd rather listen to fucking Lady Caca or The Rainbow Children! (and that's still a stretch!)

50 just doesn't make catchy music, or anything that's memorable. He's not that great as a rapper or producer. Just terrible.

Shitty artists like HIM don't have to remind me but it's sad when it's bullshit-type artists that complain more about not getting a Grammy nod than quality artists do.

He's really become an attention whore, and it's sad.

Now he wants to do a song with Susan Boyle.

If she hadn't sold as many records as she sold and had about 100 million viewers on youtube. He wouldn't even know who she was.

All he sees is dollar signs and the shit's disgusting!!!
JERKIN' EVERYTHING IN SIGHT!!!!!

50 Cent is not dumb. He's dangerously strategic. Its disturbing how someone like him can rise to such musical heights without having the talent to do so. Such is also the case with Puffy. It just shows how gullible the public is.

But they more or less are following the blueprint that was laid out. Lets face it the only reason Puffy/50/Jay/Kanye has got clout and cred and cheddar is because of the side ventures in business, its got nothing to do with music know-how at all. The music is almost a loss of income to them in some respects, Diddy said it when he did the two Danity Kane albums, he said "if i wanted to make money off music, i wouldnt do albums". Diddy was from a slightly different background than 50, Puffy had artists that dragged him into the spotlight, just like timbaland has, as for 50, he got his name from the HYPE of gettin shot 9times, which wasnt even true.

I just want to hear 50 say "FUCK THE Source Awards" when he doesnt get something, but that would mean doing something that showed "balls"
