Young Buck, for those who don't remember, was once most rap critics' favorite member of 50 Cent's G-Unit. Perhaps out of jealousy, perhaps because Buck sided with Game in his dispute with G-Unit's head honcho, or perhaps both reasons, Buck was ousted from G-Unit, and things haven't been easy for the Tennessee MC since. After having his assets seized by the IRS, he declared bankruptcy. However, he still resides as president of the "this is so I ironic I can't believe this is the real name" Cashville Records, and has just dropped a mixtape boasting just as ironic a title, [...]
Oncue stopped by Shade 45 during G-unit Radio to chop it up with Miss Mimi and Jack Da Ripper. Great to see the homie Cuey getting the attention he deserves. Dating back to Cueyfornication all the way up to Can't Wait, The Vibe To This crew have all been huge fans. Cuey goes over some of the producers he has been working with including JustBlaze and the success of his single "Feel Tall."
There are the essential albums that need to be in everyone's collection. There are the personal favorites, the ones that aren't highly acclaimed but still get played every once in a while. And then there are the albums that you stick in the back of your collection because you want to forget that you spent money on them. "Own It or Disown It" gives the writer the opportunity to look at such discarded albums and determine if they are diamonds in the rough or if they deserve to be used as mini-frisbees. [...]
After a rising loop the record begins: "Yo it's therapy, most of us that I know got problems / Why you think we frowning when we puttin' out these albums?" It's an ideal manifesto for The Side Effect EP, a concise introduction to the potent concoction of misgivings, neuroses, anxieties and swagger to come. Though [...]
Back before The Unit was The Unit, I remember being so impressed with how easily Lloyd Banks commanded 2Pac's "Can't C Me" beat, I actually ended up buying The Hunger [...]
If you're hindered by a certain problem that can't seem to be shaken, wait it out. More than likely, 50 Cent will be there to solve it before you know. [...]
Crooked I has been working solo recently apart from his group Slaughterhouse. In "E.T. Bars" Crooked I does his thing and goes back and forth ripping up the beat with G-Unit's Lloyd Banks . This is real hip hop here with no weak hooks and annoying repetition, just Crooked I and Lloyd Banks going on. Laid over a a funky beat, this song gets the name "E.T. Bars" and I hope you all enjoy it. Download : Crooked I - E.T. Bars (Feat. Lloyd [...]

Young, disrespectful, vibrant and immune to any rules the establishment set forth before them, one could make the argument the early 20002s G-Unit and 19922s Bébé's Kids were one in the same. Witnessing first hand as a teenager the Queens trio of 50 Cent, Lloyd Banks and Tony Yayo rise to power by dedicating what felt like their entire existence to zapping Murder Inc. of their own was exhilarating and painful at the same time. In between the guerilla-style tactics of battle raps were the well thought out and manufactured records showcasing their chemistry and [...]
Whether you love or hate Tony Yayo, he's giving everybody plenty of reason to pay attention to him as the apparent designated driver of G-Unit for now. Taking it back to the days of "So Seductive," Yayo and Fif are poppin' bottles in the club, joined by their newly appointed labelmates Shawty Lo and Kidd Kidd. Banks, where you at my G?

The rise of 50 Cent and G-Unit through a series of reputation-building mixtapes gave rappers ideas. Lil Wayne's deluge of free releases in the lead up to his gazillion-selling blockbuster Tha Carter III proved that releasing scores of songs in a small space of time could eventually reap serious financial gain. Wayne and 50's oddball exceptions have now become the rule, though, and here we are in 2011 staring down an impossible harvest of beats and rhymes. Rappers are now under the impression that domination of music is accomplished through the persistent release of tracks, features, mixtapes, EPs, [...]

Het is alweer even geleden, maar tijd voor een nieuw bericht in de Top Remixers Serie. Dr. Rosen Rosen is een producer die na jaren hip-hop beats geproduceerd te hebben in New York is verhuisd naar LA om nieuwe inspiratie te vinden. Het begon voor Dr. Rosen Rosen in Idaho. Een relaxte jeugd, een prima studietijd met toen al een sterke interesse voor het produceren van muziek en later dus zijn tijd in New York. Hij heeft er beats geproduceerd voor G-Unit en 50 Cent maar wilde meer. In LA begon hij zijn [...]

G-Unit 2K11 is a far cry from the gaudy roster 50 Cent brandished in 2004, but for now, they're content with visibility being their voice of promotion. Tony Yayo is leading the charge on a down-south inspired 808 joint, which is fitting seeing that their latest signees were born with the dialect. Not the strongest of exhibitions but you know they'll keep trying until something catches the majority's ear. Tony Yayo Feat. 50 Cent, Shawty Lo, Roscoe Dash & Kidd Kidd - "Haters" [...]
