When this dropped you literally could not go anywhere without hearing this album blaring out of some speakers. F*ck the critics, the streets serenaded this album an instant classic.
Big facts
EM snapped on Don’t push me and Patiently waiting … that shady/aftermath era from 99-04 is still one of the best to me
And 20 years later they still gave us one the most legendary halftime shows
Soon as don’t push me beat start
CHILLS
That's the Em that niggas want back not the EM we getting now with the mediocre Twista flow
Banks had the best verse though!
Yeah sometimes I wonder what a bad meets evil album would sound like if it came out in like 03-04.
What an album. Just banger after banger after banger. Still remember hearing what up Gangsta for the first time ever, still blows me away.
Yes facts
This album had so many hits for a debut Hip Hop album it's cemented in the Hip Hop history for sure imo.
Man GRoDT was an event. I was in college...freshman
It was definitely the soundtrack for a minute.
Big facts their are certain albums man when they drop even if you don't follow the music like that u still feel the impact
Gotta Make it to Heaven is a slept on track
Very much so. Poor Lil' Rich is another slept on track as well.
@@MichaelBrown-ti1un The beat on Poor Lil' Rich is absolutely ridiculous in the best way.
Can’t believe they wasted time at the end arguing if this album belongs with other rap classics. Any real Hip-Hop fan is gonna say Get Rich Or Die Tryin’ is one of the best rap albums of all time. The impact this project had on the culture is UNDENIABLE.
Facts man
Everyone is allowed to have their own opinion though
@@giovannidejoie8618Blá Blá Blá, they was hating on 50, garbage opinion don't matter.
@@danielcampos20242although it was insanely influential you could argue that it sent the game into a weaker direction - bling, super commercial era
As a listener who now lives in Bangkok,Thailand...I can assure you songs from this album are STILL getting played in the club here 2 decades later .50 Cent just released a video for "Backdown" recently and it still sounds new to me.
Being from the Tri-State area this album means everything along with Power Of A Dollar, the entire mixtape run before and after with Massacre and the GRODT soundtrack. I think people underrate just how good prime 50 was as a songwriter these days and how he flipped choruses, hooks, bridges the way he did. And to this day rappers still go back to use his techniques.
50 had the best prime ever
Eminem once said that when making the album with 50 he told him that he actually believed PIMP was way better than in da club
I kinda agree with him. In da club is the classic but PIMP was just so ahead of its time. 50 was out here doing the singing in rap years before Drake ever arrived and it sounded so smooth and that production was just crazy
Godamn. "Get Rich or Die Tryin´" was my first self-bought CD when I was 12. I Can´t believe its 20 years ago....
Get Rich Or Die Tryin' and The Massacre is what got me to fall in love with hip hop as a child. I was bumpin 50 Cent as a kid non-stop loool. UNDENIABLE CLASSIC.
Heat is so slept on 😪
My favourite back when it came out so cold with all them gunshots 😅
That's one of my many Gym Songs. "Behind that twinkle in your eyes, I can see the BITCH in you..."
Get rich or die tryin is a timeless piece of art
Got that album at the basar in russia, was a burned CD with cover from printer and it was my introduction to international hip hop, for me this is an important part of my music journey.
In nyc they used to play this joint out the windows of the projects and the radio damn near played the whole album back 2 back
I was only 4 when this came out. So I didn’t get to experience the initial impact of the album, but I remember loving “In Da Club” everytime when my momma played it in the car.
I was 6 and when I first heard this song… it birthed my love for music. then after that you couldn’t escape 50 on the radio for a good 3-4 year run. that time period truly felt like an eternity
Yep, the anticipation leading up to this release was huge. Over here in the UK too. This came out the year I learned to drive, and I would ride around the countryside of northern England blasting it in the whip. Good times!
I was in 7th grade when this album dropped. The timing of the album and the world how it was at that time was something you had to witness. It was incredible. When In Da Club dropped, so many white kids at my school lost their minds and loved the hell out of the record. GRODT is a banger album
Then when "21 Questions" got released it went gold or platinum
February 2003 I was living in Chicago at the time. I was 24 at the time and I was on my way back home from Virginia visiting my grandmother who was very sick at the time. My friend picked me up from MDW airport on the south side. As I was waiting for him to pull up at least 5 cars drove past me playing a different song from GRODT. When he picked me up I asked him to stop at Coconuts which was a commercial record store at the time in Chicago Ridge. When we got there the line was by the door for people buying that album. It was a time to be alive and definitely changed hip hop. A classic masterpiece
I was 12 when this album came out. 50 had me feeling like I was a gangsta from the street screaming out G Unit!! 😂😂
Get Rich or Die Tryin' is definitely up the with the classics.
Yeah
An absolute classic. Before I Self Destruct is severely underrated in my opinion as well
Before I Self Destruct is a great album super underrated
Greatest Hip-Hop album of all time… idc what nobody say. This album delivered Street shit, Lyrical Shit, Club Mainstream shit … this album has no weaknesses, every hook is amazing and production is great
Lyrical?
@@jamesjones-ez9ugPatiently Waiting has good punchlines/bars & Life’s on the Line is great also
@@jamesjones-ez9ugI mean Eminem is on it
Man idk I feel as though hip hop is so vast and their have been so many acts and albums over the years I feel like we gotta break these convos down into different categories I will say it has a case as being the greatest debut album ever
@@jamesjones-ez9ugLyrical yes, dude was rapping lyrics, as in rhyming, he didn't sing. Technical is that lyrical miracle shit.
This album changed the game especially if you listen to Jeezy and meek mill albums the way they start there albums is exactly like get rich or die trying
Idc what they say it's up there with all those albums, it's a classic album 😊
Patiently waiting still so hard man
I remember when he used to perform these songs on mtv and bet spring break shows he would be all daredevil climbing to the very top of equipment
These anniversary videos are great. My favorite songs are Many Men and Patiently Waiting.
In Philly when this album first came out, the streets was bumpin' Heat all over the place.
Lol, it's funny the journey we all take, but this is the album that locked me in. I liked songs, I liked some shit, but when this dropped? I was balls deep in Hip-Hop. 5 months later I was listening to Big-L, and disecting bars. I was in deep quick.
3:45
Like Em said
" 50 did not win album of the year even though there was nothing bigger and nobody since snoop came out the gate like that. My first album didn't do it. I never saw someone's first album had that level of impact and he didn't get it"
Facts. They gave it to évanescence.... The disrespect
To be fair, Evanescence was MASSIVE in 2003, and this was also during the time when nu metal was dominating radio.
@@dexenationgracey1979 I know but I guatrntee you that more people remember songs off GRDT than the évanescence album. I can only remember that big single they had
The Grammys have always missed
@@muleyamwiinga3988especially when it comes to rap/hip hop
Yeah that's no surprise tho the Grammys were notorious for screwin over rap and rappers did y'all forget when Macklemore beat out Kendrick?
If you’re too young to remember or had been alive lol…it’s not an exaggeration how big this album was…so many songs dominating the airwaves no matter where you lived…it was insane
GRODT the Massacre and Curtis are all classics GRODT is definitely top 10 of all time
Many Men got an argument for greatest Hiphop song ever.
I was never a fan of this album however I do like some of the singles that dropped. I guess I feel about 50 how Beezy feel about DMX....RIP Trugoy aka Plug 2 🙏
same. i never really rocked with 50 or the G-Unit era for some reason. just didn't reasonate with me
Wow
Easy Top 10 album for me
I was in 4th grade when this came out
I’m 30 now bruh we old 😂😂😂😂
Was you held back a few times?? Lol I was in 3rd grade and I'm only 27
Top to bottom. Poor lil rich is the most underrated record on the album
Get Rich or Die Trying is a classic, The Massacre is great, and before I self-destruct is really good. 50 cent had some misses no question but also has great projects.
The zoom in and out when Myke is talking about Ja Rule is hilarious 😹😹
One of the best albums ever made
Top 5 album ever
There's levels to classics. I don't have GRODT on the same tier as Illmatic, Supreme Clientele, The Chronic, Midnight Marauders, Doggystyle or Ready To Die, but it's somewhere in my top 25-30 🐐 albums list.
That u bro ..lol
I would agree however grodt is every bit as good as Doggystyle
If that’s the case you’ll have to go by decade..and it’s all taste but GRODT is a top 5 album because half those songs still play in stadiums and arenas clubs and gym
Two songs from 50's _GRODT_ "In Da Club" & "21 Questions" were heavy rotation reaching #1 nearly worldwide for weeks fr
As a teenager at the time you'd have to say this competes
I didn't know a person my age not listening to this record from top to bottom
Time flies man frfr
Get Rich or Die Tryin’ is 1st tier in my opinion and can compete against any classic hip hop album. 50 was at his best on this one! song structure, hooks, slick witty lines, and his delivery made you believe everything he was saying was real!!! The production was top notch and blended in perfectly with song structure on this album. Dre wasn’t just talkin when he said it can compete with all the classics he named he was serious!!!
Really appreciate y’all putting some of these patreon videos on RUclips, not a work day goes by where I’m not laughing at y’all’s gold
Selling over 800k in the first week is huge by itself but it sold 800k while going quadruple platinum on burned CDs weeks before.
800k and it was a short week. It was released on a Thursday.
sold another 800k 2nd week
I graduated in 2003
Certified Classic..
One of the only albums that's a victim of its own success. It was written, All Eyez on Me and Stankonia (to name a few)
I wanna mention that Obie Trice shady debut album Cheers during that era as in my opinion was slept on due to 50's debut on the label. I think that album had better Dre and Em production from top to bottom than Get Rich or Die Tryin in my opinion.
My opinion it’s what the Massacre should of sounded like but fif did give away a few classics to the game…but The Set Up beat with Nate on the hook was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
fif the goat from 2003 to 2006 no one could touch him even his debut mixtape sold 400k copies
Also @Beezy430, Power of a Dollar never actually released. It was shelved after he got shot up. It happened right before he was supposed to shoot his video with Destiny's Child. If y'all go back and look at the history, 50 was about to blow back then. He was gonna pop either way, because his songwriting and hook abilities when he was hungry was crazy.
Yup 50 had to deal with a lot of politics and industry bs on his come up due to his beef wit ja and who ja was affiliated with at the time it's honestly a miracle 50 blew up the way he did
Are you guys going to review Oddisee’s new album
I grew tired of this album after a fortnight lol. I was loving all the hype and the g-unit mixtapes, but the lack of depth and variety of topics meant the only reason I had to return to the album was the production.
March is coming up are we doing some rap brackets this year? You can do albums or artists songs like yall did with the Kanye video.
stay tuned
Em’s beats in that era were so goated.
Had to check if I was still subscribed. Y’all vids ain’t poppin up on my feed anymore
in nyc get rich a classic no question
Gotta love how DEHH used to debate 20 mins over the definition of a word and now they make fun of Feefo for it after years of conditioning him 😂
I would buy The Art of Storytelling by Slick Rick before GRODT
I was 7 years old!
Growing up in Southern California…(760) 50 Cent bulletproof ps2🔥🔥🔥
🌴🌊☀️
Yea yea nobody asked I know that👎
DEHH Question: what other albums are in that second tier along with
get Rich or die trying
Or yet if you haven’t done one DEHH
Classic Album Tier list
Probably a kanye album or 2
Mike and the other dude on the right are living from the past past. I’d definitely put get rich or die tryin up to illmatic
myke c town asmr "damn" stream when
Many many many many men.......
The album gets better with time
Buddy said he rather be in the studio when dark fantasy is being made you can tell why he don’t like in the club and he’s definitely the artistic one in the group,the man story was he a gangster got shot up survived his mixtape already let it be know he nothing to fuck with but you thought he was a POP RAPPER 😂😂😂😂
Lame as hell
It's a very good album but in terms of impact, GRODT is a classic. No other album was that heavily played. Maybe All Eyes On Me was?
A solid 8.5 of 10.
W
R.I.P. Plug 2 AKA Trugoy
Ken looking kinda fresh.
Technically, 50 pops up on Supreme Clientele
Ya Lifes On The Line is from Power Of The Dollar
The last album from the golden era of hip hop. It all got happy, poppy, mumbly after this album.
The golden era ended I'd say around 97 or 98 rap had already gotten real happy and poppy by the late 90's and especially early 2000's
Unfortunately, though this album is dope, I think it spelled the end. Everyone trying to copy this sound and it ended up with the bling era.
You could even say that this is the first bling album. A damn good one. But one of the only good ones🤣
Wanksta came out in 02 on the 8mile h oh s buzz was really in 02
This album is NOT with Illmatic, The Chronic, Ready to Die, Marshall Mathers LP, Enter the Wu 36 Chambers
Some of the songs on here really hit to me but overall I don't love the sound of this album. It just doesn't resonate with me as a total package...but I do understand that its impact is undeniable.
GRODT>MMLP, GRODT has way more replay value, with better production, song topics, choruses, and overall impact.
Just think how much better the St Valentine’s Day massacre sophomore album would of done if he didn’t give those songs to Game and interscope actually released it on Feb 14 like Fif wanted to
Sounds like the crew is sleeping on the Kanaan mixtape. 50 rapped his ass off on Im the Man and Bodybags. Plus the production was perfect.
Beezy is getting geeked up on here lmao smh.
Feefo is right. Hot ≠ Good
I still listened to Ja-Rule at the height of this. It’s just music and I liked both artist.
Many Men and Heat are the only 2 songs I care about on this album at the present moment. I feel like this album was over hyped and overplayed for me to enjoy like I should......sorry.
It's still a classic tho.
Respect to you fam........ But you tweakin if u say patiently waiting ain't still a slap
50’s catalog isn’t that bad tbh…
GRODT - 10/10
The Massacre - 9/10
Curtis - 6/10
Before I Self Destruct - 7/10
Animal Ambition - 4/10
Beg for mercy and all the mixtapes
Bruh after the first two albums everything else was trash his gimmick was done I got shot was the only thing people care about that’s why his albums suck after
@@seankelly4594 Nope… 187 Curtis, Strong Enough, Death to my Enemies, Man Down, I Get Money, I Still Kill… 50 still had some serious shit after the first two albums
50 and Dre had disconnect over the Game situation
Oh No He didn't say anything about Jah, Cause Jah is My Boo!
Ja rule was running shit man
Damn ain’t seen this podcast for a min feefo is huuuuge
What does myke mean the biggie formula?
Street song, club record, a mid tempo banger too.
@@grayeighty8974 Ah I got you
Thanks ‘preciate it.
lti ep
Come on dead end hip hop what about the massacre
I personally like The Massacre better. Besides Candy Shop It's a more grimy New York album.
the massacre is a dope album also but after that he started to decline lyrically
Are masks still common in Atlanta?
of course GRODT is in the same conversation as illmatic, ready to die and chronic, damn the disrespect with 50 is crazy, marshall mathers lp is not above GRODT
Mikes a softy
Get Rich Or Die Tryin & The Massacre I liked but after that He fell way the fuck off.
These dudes are too old and way out of touch if they don't think GRODT is amongst all the certified Hip Hop classic albums.
Right off impact alone
