09/12/07 - 50 Cent - Curtis (The Gunit2050 Review)

Gunit2050 · 09-12-2007, 07:04 PM

1. Intro
Basically this is a arms deal skit, nothing to exciting here...

2. My Gun Go Off
This is a hot track. Feels like 50 from when he first started out. This song is about murder, street life. Production is crazy, feels like Eminem produced it but he didn't. 50's flow and hook are perfect over this gun shot filled beat. 5/5 stars

3. Man Down
This song is about killing a cop. Hence why it's so censored even on the explicit version of this track. The beat is very hood, great piano keys over it. 50's lazy flow if perfect over this. This track is easily one of the best on the album if you can overlook all the censoring in the first verse. 5/5 stars

4. I'll Still Kill ft. Akon
The production on this beat is bangin! Akon and 50 tear this track up. I have to say Akon's chorus gets a little annoying though. But 50 kills his verses yet again. He talks that pure gangsta talk which is what we've wanted to hear from 50 for awhile now. 4/5 stars

5. I Get Money
This is actually 50's 3rd single off the album. It's def. a anthem for 2007. The beat production is insane. Perfect flow and the chorus is very catchy. You're gonna have this one on repeat for awhile. Verse to look out for is, "I cut the check before the baby comes, who the heck cares". Probably the best track on the album. 5/5 stars

6. Come & Go ft. Dr. Dre
Lets get this straight, Dr. Dre does not have a verse on this song he's on the chorus with 50. 50 straight kills the verses. Unfortunately the chorus of this song sucks. 50 also claims this is better then In The Club, but it's not. Great beat production from Dre though. Funny line to look out for is, "I'm pissin' on grown women, R. Kelly do it to children". 4/5 stars

7. Ayo Technology Ft. Justin Timberlake & Timbaland
This is actually a good track, 50's 4th single. Justin really does his thing on this song. If you don't understand the title they're saying they are tired of using the internet to full-fill their fantasies. 50 sounds a lil' uncomfortable on this one. Great production though. 4/5 stars

8. Follow My Lead ft. Robin Thicke
This is 50's 5th single. This is what should of been released instead of Ayo Technology. This song is perfect for the ladies, perfect beat and 50 kills the verses perfectly. This is gonna be a classic like 21 Questions. 5/5 stars

9. Moving on Up
This song sounds like old school hip-hop here. Good beat and good chorus. This track makes you feel good. Only problem is the whole song sounds like one big chorus. So I'm a rate it 4/5 stars

10. Straight to the Bank
50's 1st single. This song didn't quite get the response he wanted it to hence why I Get Money was created. This is a Dre beat. The verses are good, but the chorus sucks. I would of taken this off of the album. 2/5 stars.

11. Amusement Park
50's 2nd single. This track is hot. Pure fire for the ladies, production, chorus, verses, everything is perfect here. 5/5 stars

12. Fully Loaded Clip
50's street single. This track is pretty crazy. He murders the verses. Unfortunately he tries to be funny on the chorus which makes it a bit annoying. He disses a bunch of rapper without really dissing them. The song is pure hood though, straight grimey. 4/5 stars

13. Peep Show ft. Eminem
This is actually my fav. track on the album. Eminem's production on this track is just crazy and 50 has an incredible flow on this. 50 really tears this track apart. Turn this joint up!! Eminem unfortunately slacked off on this, barely gives a full verse. Still 50 makes up for that and so does the beat. Another golden shower ref. this time by Eminem though. I'd release this as a single. 5/5 stars

14. Fire fr. Nicole Scherzinger & Young Buck
This is yet another Dre beat. This is a party record, easily a club anthem right here. Should be a single also. You can dance to this more-so, not a hood track. A line to look out for is ,"You can hate this, but face it B.I.G. and 2pac just ain't around." Buck makes a odd appearance on the chorus, but it works well. 5/5 stars

15. All of Me ft. Mary J. Blige
Yet another track for the ladies. This is for a more grown-up crowd, feels jazzy. Something the old-heads can vibe to. Production is top notch, chorus is good, 50's flow is good. I tend to skip this track, but it's actually rather good. 5/5 stars

16. Curtis 187
Beat is grimey, straight hood. Tells a hood story about what he rhymes about best, murder. Chorus is catchy, verses are fire. This song is on a GRODT/Beg 4 Mercy level. Easily one of the best tracks on the album. 5/5 stars

17. Touch the Sky ft. Tony Yayo
You gotta love this track, the production is out of this world!! 50 and Yayo really murder this track!! 50's flow is simply incredible. Verse to look out for by Yayo is, "These old G's talkin' about back in the days, I'll have a R.I.P. sign on your myspace page". Yayo actually outshines 50 on this track.

18. Smile (I'm Leaving)
The bonus track. This may be one of the realest tracks 50's ever written. You can here the pain in his voice on this. He rhymes about everything thats been going on since Eminem stepped out and how his next album might be his last. Key verse to look for is, "Oprah got In Da Club on her iPod, she don't want me on her show though I guess I'm to hard. She sat Kanye West down to talk about his crash, but she don't wanna talk about the bullets in my ass". Perfect ending to the cd. 5/5 Stars

Final Thoughts:
This is a pretty solid album. It's no GRODT, but more grimey then The Massacre was. We look for the hood in him. He gave it to us, but I can't help but wish there was more of it on this album. 50 went outside of the Unit for this one, yet none of the collabs outshine him. This is still a 50 Cent album. you barely notice the outside help. He held it down well and made it a 3 way threat. He pleases the hood fans, pleases the ladies, and pleases the party fans. It's def. worth the money! Cop this album today!

DesDevious · 09-12-2007, 07:12 PM

Lex4158 · 09-12-2007, 11:17 PM

This album would of been a classic if he took off songs like str8 to the bank, fully loaded clip, and all them bullshit tracks. He definatly needed a few more songs with em and dre, along with banks and buck.

all_Eyez · 09-14-2007, 05:03 PM

I would have given Straigh To The Bank at least a 3 though... Hook is a bit annoying, but oh well... Beat is hard and 50's flow is aight on it, rest of the review seems good... Classic indeed, but it ain't GRODT!

lilweezysboi · 09-14-2007, 08:54 PM

Thats wats wrong w/ hip hop now. Niggas start talking bout guns and people get excited. Curtis shows little to none actual lyrical ability. 90% of people dont wake up with killing people on their mind. But since kanye is different he's gay. its the wanna be gangsta fans who fuckin' up hiphop not the people who bringing something fresh and new.
