What Parents Need to Know

About Music From and Inspired by Get Rich or Die Trying

Parents need to know that 50 Cent is up to his tedious old tricks. The explicit version of this movie soundtrack album is filled with sexist, violent, and racist sentiment -- and the edited version sounds just plain ridiculous since there is nothing left after the edits.

    GIVE HIM A BREAK!!!

    Ok now i am a girl and i am madly in love with 50 cents music. Ok so you parents don't agree with his music, or how he swears in the music, but this is 50 cents's style. He is very talented, he could write a beautiful poem for anyone in like 2 seconds. This is his style and we kids get the message. The message he may send to us kids isn't violent at all. He is teaching us to not back down, to stand up for ourselves, now he may say that he causes violents in his lyrics, but thats not your problem its his. I got the message that i shouldn't be afriad to do something or to stick up to the idiots in my class. The movie just explains his life. I mean he is a idol to boys and he's showing his fans what he's made of. So stop your gd complaining and try not to protest. Because no one cares, Im pretty sure that if you people took the time to listen to his music then you will see what he is really talkin about. I mean you hear one bad word in his songs and say no, but let me ask you this how many times do you people swear in front of your kids? Huh? How many times have you bullied someone like he has huh? STOP IT! Stop your complaning and open your eyes.
