timeSep 17, 2007Justin Timberlake? RU kidding me? Had this been 10 years ago 50 would have castrated Justin with his bare hands for his wannabe street cred thug preppy look. Now he's singing with him? WTF. I think that 9th bullet made him a little daffy.

MattP.Sep 11, 2007The album is okay, but lacks heart and funk.
-

ScottieGSep 12, 2007I was so enthralled by "Get Rich", but 50 is losing his sense creativity.

PeterO.Sep 17, 2007This album is shit. Pure and simple. shit

IndroneilB.Sep 15, 2007Get rich ...made him rich!!! ; Massacre proved to be a massacre!!!! ; but Curtis fails
-
-
DarrentJ.Sep 7, 2007This is the poorest rap album 50 has ever put out. The rhymes are stretched so thin over hit/miss (mostly miss) beats. Definitely the biggest disappointment of a year with hardly any good hip-hop.

KevinM.Sep 12, 200750 fell off a long time ago. He has run out of topics and on this album it shows.

TheSmokingCupcakeOct 19, 2007What a worthless album! The first time I listened to it I almost lost my cookies because of its worthlessness. Then I remembered who recorded it..here's a question, can this guy do anything other than talk? I mean, generally, if you call yourself a musician, playing instruments is a prerequisite.

chrisSep 12, 2007Im glad I only paid $10.00 This was something that seemed like he threw together because he had to

ShayvondaSep 11, 2007I was so looking forward to this album but it's junk. Sorry fiddy, it's really junk. But I guess I should have seen this coming after he released Candy Shop as a single.

-
RoyalCashSep 11, 2007I heard this cd on myspace..ummmmm garbage. Still sucks he's gonna sell more than Kanye

CraigC.Sep 12, 2007Buy Graduation - get rid fitty forever.

ChrisMMar 5, 2009It's almost impossible to believe people were expecting a masterpiece after listening to his debut. His albums keep getting worse.He used to be a rapper with potential!
-
-
PaulCSep 13, 2007Fiddy's heart just doesn't seem in this album. Maybe it's all the talk of retirement, or the fact that he has earlier stated he planned on putting out 2 more albums to fulfill his contract and then quit, but either way, Fiddy should rethink his reasons for being in the rap game. Sad to see someone fall so low, but this album is just more proof that hip-hop, as Nas put it, is dead.
-
-
JohnW.Sep 13, 2007I tried, but it's not very good.
-
-
JesseP.Sep 15, 2007Album is horrible..."Fiddy" needs to keep his word and retire from whateva it is he does in the rap industry....He's put a black eye on the industry long enough....Whack Rapper!!
-
-
DavidBerkleySep 16, 2007he is still around! he should have stopped in 2003 when he had the money. but unfortunately we have to hear more fiddy cent and his G-UNOT gang. hearing of this is the equivalent of having bad fast food at McDonalds is tasty but disgusting and watered down. Go back to talib kaweli, common, wu tang clan etc for good rap not this overproduced junk.
-
-
KurtisBlueSep 23, 2007Hip-hop isn't dead, but it sure smells funny.
-
-
AdamLSep 12, 2007In short, 50 is failed so hard with this album that it will be hard for him to recover on the next.
-
-
SH.Sep 13, 2007This is garbage an example of at least parts of hip hop being dead. Let support the innovative, Fifty is so tired man and he's not trying anymore. He's rich now and knows whatever he puts out will sell and people are stupid enough to keep buying even though its not quality.
-
-
ClifC.Dec 1, 2008I red some of your comments, but HOW THE HELL CAN YOU EVEN COMPARE HIM TO KANYE WEST?!??! Kanye is a billion trillion light years of Curtis! Hey 50... Just get a musical education!
-
-
k0b.Oct 13, 200750 cent should rather sell crack than recording another bullshitin' Album like 'Curtis'.
-
-
SophieM.Oct 18, 2007Don't like 90% of rap music, but believe me I don't give out 0/10s unless the album deserves it. I'm not a Kanye West fan, but if you're going to get either definitely get Kanye's, from what I've heard it's decent.

KevinF.Nov 9, 2007This is even worse than my album.
-
-
RoseOct 27, 2007Really shit to be honest. The lack of effort he gives in his music deserves a 0.
-
-
ChrisW.Sep 10, 2007Is that 50 Cent or a slow Fifth-Grader? Why is it that some rappers need to dumb themselves down in order to Rap? Even "The Game" has shown some promise in expressing himself lyrically... but 50 keeps on mumbling worse than Shannon Sharpe. When is there going to be the Next Generation for Rap. Wake me up when we get there.

CJFSep 10, 2007NOT THE BEST STUFF
-
-
PeterM.Sep 18, 2007This album really sucks! I must say that Kanye West beats Curtis big time!!
-
-
LiefSSep 20, 2007I'm from queens ny and i can honestly say all of our prayers have been answered, he isn't gonna outsell kanye and hopefully this waste of life truly retires like he said he would. him, eminem and dre should never touch music again, they have no idea what dignity means, they would sell their souls as quick as anybody who supported them would buy it.
-
-
SuziZ.Sep 24, 2007it's impossible to listen to an entire album of 50 Cent (as usually). Only a few selected tracks. But that doesn't make an album, does it?
-
-
DevarG.Nov 9, 2007Garbage.
-
-
joeybDec 3, 2007Total frickin' let down. I expected so much more, but this is just crap.
-
-
BrianCtDec 3, 200750 Cents probably sums the artistic worth of this album; then again it would be fair to except 49 Cents change.
-
-
NicoleV.Oct 29, 2007I never thought I'll say this but this album is 10 times worse than K-Fed's pile of donkey stool.
-
-
OtisC.Oct 3, 2007The best thing he did for this album was timberlake and timberland.... Completely wack.
-
-
ThaD.Sep 11, 2007Crap. 50 claims he's "gangsta" even though he has songs like "Ayo Technology" and "Follow My Lead" on his album. Wack CD, don't buy it.
-
-
KhrysX.Sep 11, 2007At this point 50 is just so uninspiring its pathetic. I have no desire to ever listen to this album again, there are no standouts or special moments on the entire album.
-
-
JustinP.Sep 11, 2007I am so glad I downloaded this and didn't buy it. I can't believe this is the "artist" who continues to sell when real artists like Sage Francis and Lupe Fiasco constantly remains unheard of. When are the 12 year old white girls going to stop buying 50?
-
-
sverreo.Sep 11, 2007this album sucks so much. graduation owns the shit out of fiddy. 50 told me to go ahead switch ur style up, and if they hating let em and watch the money stack pile up
-
-
GeraldH.Sep 11, 2007The album is predictable, redundant and breaks no new ground. Hip hop has lost a lot of ground in terms of sales and commercial recognition and 50 give no new reason to return. I think I will stick to listening to Kanye.
-

LandonV.Sep 10, 2007This album sucks!

EmilS.Sep 11, 2007All crap. Sorry.

ErikG.Sep 12, 2007He's proven himself to be the worst lyricist alive.

gsdagasdgdsgsadgasdSep 12, 2007Fuck Fifty...

Dr.BloodmoneySep 13, 2007Piece of crap, just like his other albums. The one positive review here is hilarious. Read it aloud and try not to laugh.
-
-
CF.Sep 14, 2007Complete garbage. No offense to you young raze but you must be listening to a different album than the rest of us! 50 needs to back his sell-out ass out of the game!
-
-
RudySSep 15, 2007Pretty terrible, actually.
-
-
CaddyC.Sep 21, 2007This album is absolutely appalling and it goes to show how stupid the public is to buy this garbage on hype alone.West is just barely a better lyricist but Graduation is still utterly compelling listening and a million lightyears ahead of Curtis,the worst album of the year by a long long way.Blood-curdlingly terrible.
-
-
JermaineDSep 6, 2007yo 50 lost it on this one seriously, this album is wack! he used to at least have some ability to make a good song but he not only seems weak lyrically on this but the beats are horrible! i used to be a big fan but this album is horrible. what happened to you 50?
-
-
JohnDec 6, 2007Total crap!!! stay away!!!!
-
-
CdCriticSep 13, 2007This album is so bad, it makes Xzibit's "Full Circle" look like grammy material. What a failure.

theguywhoshot50cent9timesSep 17, 2007Why o, why o, didn't he just dieo technology. I hate 50 cent. every single song he has done makes me want to shoot MYSELF 9 times! he doesnt deserve the fame he gets. everything he has done is terrible, his music, the movie. is there anything he actually can do. do not buy this otherwise i will pop a cap in yaw ass!
-
-
JoeWNov 17, 2007This is one of the worst albums I've ever heard it makes me sick to think that he's making money from this. It just goes to prove that Hip Hop is dead and that artists with the least talent sell the most CD's. Forget this album totally - listen to some real hip hop like Common, Kweli, Kanye, The Pharcyde etc.
-
-
AdrianDec 12, 2007I snapped my CD in half how can you even classify this as music??
-
-
Apr 2, 2021i didn’t like any of the tracks at all, i would advice you all to not listen, save your self them time
Awards & Rankings
-
'My Gun' is one of the best tracks Fifty's lent his name to; Adam Deitch and Eric Krasno's skilful production keeps the tension bubbling just below the surface with a muted hard rock guitar riff; 50's rhyme and flow is more varied and expressive than his usual monotone drawl.... The remainder of the album is as inconsistent as Fifty’s career to date.
-
In the end, Curtis is entertaining but only impressive in that 50 can run in place and still be on top.
-
Though the album is good, for an artist of 50 Cent's caliber, it's not great.
