This is the only 50 cent album i listen to. the other are not very good. The lyrics do have violence, and sex, and profanity but the music is genius. the beats are great and this probably 50 cent's best album. There are lines like "I'm into having sex but not into making love." great album pretty profain but i love it.

What Parents Need to Know
About Get Rich or Die Tryin'
Parents need to know that this CD should be reserved for mature teens, and may offend all but the most rap-hardened parents.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about 50 Cent's tough tongue. Although his music is available in edited form (with bleeps reminiscent of the Osbournes), don't kid yourself. Teens mostly get what he's talking about, so find a way to discuss it with them so you at least get your 2 cents' worth.

Lives inI rate this title off for age 17 and give itAmazing but explicit
A ton of language, sex, drugs and violence.
Lives inI rate this title on for age 15 and give itA Masterpiece.
This CD is what a rap cd should sound like. 50's gun talk and catch phrases are amazing. I still can listen through this whole cd, 6 years after it came out. Paitently Waiting, High All The Time, Heat, Back Down, Your Life's On The Line, Wanksta, and Poor Lil Rich are all classics. If your 16 and you can deal with the content, Buy it and listen to it.
Lives in GeorgiaI rate this title on for age 2 and give itgreat album
Well this is about as good as 50 cent will ever get in his career. We finally see what he can talk about besides women and money and he does a good job. The song patiently waiting with the guest appearance of eminem is a milestone in hip hop. Overall a great album lots of violence and sex talk but whatever
