YeseniaAFeb 25, 2003I gonna give dis CD a perfect 10, beacuse i loved the work 50 Cents had put in dis CD, and da way he had rapped wit other like Emimem and Dr.Dre, and G-unit. I love 50 Cents for being him.Im jus sayin dat dis album is da best out of my years.
-
-
JoshDFeb 26, 200350 Cent is the shit. His CD sounds a lot like something Tupac might release.
-
-
jessegMar 10, 2003this cd is awesome i wish that 50 cent would come up with new songs because he has some potential and a good voice that he shouldnt waste.
-
-
JajairaOMar 26, 2003This album was the jump off for real. 50's album was heard all over the streets. Man listen 50 is that man he blew up.

mookruibartMay 3, 200350 is da shit!!!!
-
-
ronronMay 5, 2003There will be a rapper who has the skills of Tupac and Biggie combined but I think that 50cent will never measure of to them because their too deep and they can rap good, my opinion. Ja rule compared to him is a better rapper.
-
-
AdamGJun 7, 2003I'll give it a ten because of the song "21 Questions."

-
-
JoseGOct 12, 2006One of the best CD;s ever made!!!! Truly outstanding, & screw that bitch Game.
-
-
TyroneApr 30, 2006One of the greatest albums I have ever listened to. 50 cent is a little bit of BIG,Tupac, and Big L which explains his confidence/cockness noticible in every verse he spits. This album is a definite classic.
-
-
DanteSAug 21, 2006

-
BrannonMApr 2, 2007He's not pac or big, but who cares. The beats on this album make it a classic, and he is a talented lyricist even if the gangsta themes are repetitive. Underrated artist, fuck haters.
-
-
RamzeezeBMay 4, 2007One of the best of all time!
-
-
MikeM.Jun 30, 2007This is the most solid cd i have heard, Very rarely do i put a cd in and actually listen to every song without having to skip one. One of my top 3 albums of all time. Look out for Detox, September 2007. Same time as 50's new album: Curtis
-
-
NeilL.Mar 8, 2008It is very rare that I put a disc into my player without skipping a single track.
-
-
MacFeb 12, 2003Pretty good, especially the non-commercial tracks. It's a nice break from the crazy, brutal rap artists we hear so much of today. Oh - and Rolling Stone gave it four stars, not 4 1/2. Just to let you all know... Which makes more sense. It's good, but not THAT good.

-
-
ryanvFeb 19, 2004this album has something for everyone, alot of songs on this album didnt get the credit they deserved becausethe popular one were on the radio 24/7, the harder songs like blood hound and back down are masterpeices in them selves, this album is a work of art about one mans struggle on the streets of new york, who rose to greatness, its the one of the alltime best albums
-
-
BHJul 19, 2004Yo, Get Rich or Die Tryin is a classic!!!! It goes harder then any debut albums from anyone. It is the hip-hop Thriller. Expect big things to come from 50. He will be one of the greatest rappers only to be surpassed by eminem. Dats wats up......G-Unit!!!
-
-
25CentJul 28, 2004I Think This CD Was Good.People Just say it isnt because they wanna hate.I dont dissagree that Lloyd Banks Is Nice But EVERYONE IN G UNIT IS NICE.
-
-
MickeyBlueEyesAug 8, 200450 flipped the rap world upside down with this album,he has set himself a high standard to beat for his next album but with Em and Dre behind him,its best to just get outta his way,he's unstoppable!!

kcNov 7, 2003some day the world will wake up and realize that 50 cent isnt even rapping, HE IS TALKING PEOPLE!!50 cent is lyrically and vocally one of the worst rappers in the history of his genre. Even macho man randy savage's rap cd is better.

TRICEYJMay 15, 200350 baby all you gotta do is shake the hatters off.You know what I'm talking bout.Keep doing ya damn thing .You see what I gave you.Holla!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
-
fitysientJun 26, 2003lack of any creativity, humor or anything. 50 cent has no more talent then the average rapper. You'll only be buying this if you want to be part of a trend. 50 cent is hottest steam piece of shit. I give it a 1 because it was not worth my money, then i sold it for 9 bucks on ebay. At least I wasn't the only person who bought into the hype, so i only lost 5 bucks.

Apr 9, 2011Along with Marshall Matters Lp, Blueprint, Eminem Show, College Dropout, This few albums were the only classic hip hop albums released in the 2000s. 50cent took the music industry with surprise with this album but bigger thanks to Eminem and Dr Dre, i believe anyone who rides with Em and Dre cant lose. Classic !!!!!

-
Jun 15, 2013The production in this album is a straight 10. while i believe 50's lyrics are half assed for most of the album, the production simply cannot me ignored.
-
Nov 17, 2013The music and lyrics are okay, but for me, the production is somewhat not quite there yet. I love hip hop and 50 Cent is definitely talented. It's just that the album as a set feels static for me, not as special as I expected it to be.
-
Dec 18, 2014This is by far 50's best album ever. Classic rap at it's best!! Dope beats and heavy bass when you blast this in your car. I've been a huge fan of 50 cent ever since I was a teenager. Two specific tracks to listen to is high all the time and won't back down.
-
Mar 26, 20157.5/10................................................................................................................................................

Aug 6, 201750 Cent´s Get rich or die tryin´ is without a doubt an instant classic in the Hip Hop genre. Bought this as a child and still have the cd. A lot of classic tracks on here
-
Oct 17, 2014This is one of the greatest albums in the history of hip-hop. You can listen the whole entire album without skipping a song. The production on this album is great and what 50 Cent tells his stories of being shot nine times and being a drug dealer in great detail. 50 Cent definitely lived up to the hype that surrounded this album.
-
Mar 8, 2016This album is perfect.Not a single bad track on this project.I remember hearing songs like In da club,PIMP,21 questions and so on in the kindergarten so I think that gives an answer how memorable this album is.This is in my opinion top 10 rap albums of all time.Production is incredible,50s flow on point and although this album isn't lyrical,50 gives enough wordplay you can ask.
-
Apr 22, 2015Arguably 50's best work, Get rich or die tryin' is a hip-hop classic you can't miss. 50 is passionate, aggressive and on fire when he spits his angry rhymes. Also having an extra sharp Dre and Em production and guest features from the G-Unit crew and Eminem, GODT proves that all of the songs on the album have their place. The 2003 NY gangsta and club sound will leave you craving for more.
-
Jan 6, 201650 is an average rapper but the dre and em production is on point and therefore there are a few bangers on the album but this is definitely not close to anything classic
Awards & Rankings
-
Unless you are the president of the NRA or addicted to Cops-type tales, 50 Cent's debut is strictly small change.
-
More sonically adventurous than its mainstream look suggests.
-
Only intermittently justifies the buzz surrounding the rapper's career.
