Album Description
Australian pressing (identical to U.S.) of his smash hit 2003 album features three hidden bonus tracks, 'Wanksta' (from his currently unavailable album, 'No Mercy, No Fear'), 'U Not Like Me' (from his 'Guess Who's Back?' album) & 'Life's On The Line' (from his deleted EP, 'Power Of The Dollar'). Universal.

He?s been shot nine times. Incarcerated. And stabbed up and down. And that?s only what?s happened on 50 Cent?s down time. Hands down, 50 Cent is the biggest buzz emcee since Eminem (who just happens to be his label CEO), and Get Rich also features Dr. Dre on production, so it?s a can?t-miss record, right? Well, mostly. Get Rich is not filled with midtempo, radio-friendly numbers like "Wanksta," his thinly veiled Ja Rule dis first heard on the 8 Mile soundtrack. Instead, Cent brings the heat, not heater. He sheds his inner thug on "21 Questions," featuring G-funk crooner Nate Dogg showing some semblance of respect to the hotties, and then reverts right back to his thug persona on "In da Club," where he boasts "I?m into having sex, I ain?t into making love." There?s no "How to Rob, Pt. 2" here, although "Many Men" comes close, as he addresses some of the haters who may not fully get why he?s now rap?s big cheese. Surprisingly, the two Eminem-produced joints--"Patiently Waiting" (which thematically is very much like Em?s "Lose Yourself"), and "Don?t Push Me"--almost rival the beats supplied by Dre. Then again, it seems his most well-known cuts ("High All the Time" and "Wanksta," for example) are actually some of the weakest of the lot. Sure, Get Rich could never have lived up to the hype, it?s nowhere near Biggie's Ready to Die or Nas's Illmatic, but there's no fast-forward material here, a near miracle in these times. --Dalton Higgins
Customer Reviews
What happened 50?
This is by far one of my favorite modern rap/hip hop albums. Im talking about 2000-to now, this was before 50 cent became a sellout and and changed his flow. this album is perfect were do i begin, i will tell you this album has great production and amazing hooks. There isnt a song that i felt like skipping when listening to the album. I am not saying 50 cent isnt a good rapper anymore it is just that it doesnt seem like he is trying too hard. Anyway this is a amazing album that you can listen to it over and over and never get tired of it. Let's hope Before I Self Destruct is as good as this one.
The true "G"!
This guy is tha bomb! He gets a lot of MTV and BET airplay- meaning that he is more talented than those Beatles clowns. The lyrics are awesome and you can dance to the phat beats. He's so talented he doesn't even need to play an instrument! Beat that! He has amazing flow and is a true rap legend!
fake hip hop/rap
50 cent isnt a thug,he got shot and snitched on many many many people on his raps
hes just another sell out like most people out in the mainstream,also not a good role model...nobody likes a rat
check out some real underground rap
Very OVERRATED
I think this album is far overrated and certainly not the classic it's billed as. Also this isn't even 50 Cents best album. For anyone who's heard it, his best album is 'Power Of The Dollar'. He has never been a great lyrically but on POTD he sounds much hungrier and rawer than this album. Go listen, it's worth it.
Get Rich Or Die Tryin' has some good tracks though including: What up Gangsta, Patiently Waiting (Eminem really outshines 50 on this one), Many Men, Heat, Blood Hound, Back Down and Wanksta. All these tracks are worth listening to.
Notice I havn't said any of the singles, that's because they are boring and have been overplayed. In da club was catchy when it came out but tired now, P.I.M.P has a weak beat, 21 Questions also has a weak beat and is a track for the ladies and If I Cant is average at best.
Go and get 50's Power Of The Dollar album or you tube some of the songs off it, with great tracks like How To Rob...., Life's On The Line (which is one of the bonus songs on Get rich or die tryin'), Da Repacussions and Material Girl 2000.
A Timeless Gangsta Rap Masterpeice
My review is solely based on 50 cent as an atrist, and nothing else.
This by far could be one of the best gangsta Rap albums ever made to date.
50's ingredients of hate, and hunger in lyrics, delivery and flow blended flawlessly, creating something that will be considered an "all time" favorite amongst millions way after his time.
It's easy for any rap critic to admit this album alone deemed 50 cent the "Elvis" of Gangsta Rap, selling 12 million copies worldwide.
Im willing to bet that there are very few people, as hip hop fans, that have never heard this cd, with that being said, it would be a waste of time for me to review this album on a track by track basis. Overall, this cd is worth its weight in gold to any true gangsta rap fan abroad.
