Have you actually ever listened to the guy?
ALL of his songs are about that.

I like the Fiddy songs that are so full of profanity they cannot be played on the radio ... because the radio is the only place I would be in danger of hearing any of his !

It's like there's music and there's audio art. Fitty is the latter.

Fiddy kind of goes nuts some times. I wish he could be laid back and normal like Patton.
John Zorn is easy-listening/healing compared to Fiddy.

That was Mike Patton playing the vacuum, right? Man I love Patton/Cent collaborations.

Fiddy really "weirds up" Patton's music; I always buy those albums expecting to hear Patton's trademark easy-listening mixture of smooth jazz and new age, but instead all I hear is him screaming. Must be Fiddy trying to torture him to death or something.

This is my new favorite thread.
You guys know he'll be in the upcoming movie Righteous Kill, which will put DeNiro and Pacino together for the first time since Heat. I'm sure both are thrilled at the prospect of learning some acting tips from Fiddy.

/Nothing can withstand the amazing talents of FIDDYSENT. I heard he has to switch mic's between stanzas, otherwise they'd explode.

I accidentally heard twelve seconds of "In da Club" on the radio and then I couldn't move any of my limbs. Fortunately the radio melted

I still can't even begin to understand why anyone in their right mind would even CONSIDER listening to his material.
I suppose the people who listen to him aren't in their right mind...
Just kidding. The fellah rocks my socks. So talented, unique, inspiring, and, above all, makes me want to shoot somebody in the face. That's the most important thing in music. My motto is "If it don't make you wanna shoot someone in da face, it AIN'T MUSIC!"

Is this the non-prog music forum, or the that ain't music forum? Just checking.

Supposedly he said that if his new album sold less than Kanye West's, then he would quit his career. Kanye owned him.

What a shame. That he survived that is.

I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you?

He owns part of Vitamin Water. (So I don't drink it) He should rap about water more often and not use it as a metaphor for semen or something like that.
