Kudos for interviewing 50 Cent [Sept. 24.] Learning that his nickname is "a metaphor for change" gives me greater respect for him. But I take issue with his claim that Kanye West's music is "aimed at a straight pop audience." West's hip-hop is less gangsta and therefore softer, but it is also more substantive.

...this track’s slower pace as she does on her more characteristic, dance-oriented songs, and this change of pace makes “Paper Planes” all the more murderous. The track is so good that I might even buy it. Grade: A 50 Cent – “I Get Money” Believe it or not, 50 Cent used to be the great underground hope. Somewhere between “How to Rob” and “Wanksta,” there was so much buzz around him that...

...Republic,” I challenge them to think about what exactly their life would be life if Hollywood suddenly disappeared. No more gatherings for “The Office” or discussions about who’s more acclaimed: Kanye West or 50 Cent...
