50 Cent has probably put a lot of money aside for his fourth official CD Before I Self Destruct. This can immediately be heard in the quality of the beats, because production-wise the level is remarkably high. Another boost is the fact that we hear 50 Cent again next to Eminem on a tight Dr. Dre production. In addition, Fifty has stuck to its usual formula. For example, on So Disrespectful we hear
… that he still has a bone to pick with former G-Unit members The Game and Young Buck. It is precisely this behavior that causes many people to bother with 50 Cent. On the other hand, we can say that this behavior, which many rappers refer to as 'alpha males', has made 50 so successful. If you're up for aggressive, violent raps on neck-breaking beats, this album deserves a chance. However, you don't have to do it for in-depth texts. (GL)more
