Editorial Review:
Product Description: No Description Available No Track Information Available Media Type: CD Artist: 50 CENT Title: CURTIS Street Release Date: 09/04/2007 Domestic Genre: RAP/HIP HOP
Amazon.com: If you believe everything you hear, Curtis is 50 Cent's bid to be hip-hop king--the rumor goes that he issued it the same day Kanye West released his Graduation CD to spawn a sales race and thus, a) establish superiority, or b) retire with his head hung low. But here's what might not have occurred to 50: Given enough talent and a fully loaded speed-dial--the kind that can raise Timbaland, Akon, Dr. Dre, Mary J. Blige, and Eminem faster than the sickest rapper can stitch together a verse--it's possible for two diabolically good discs to drop the same day. Forgetting the Kanye competition for a moment, Curtis might come up short in a race with its creator's other albums--the rawness and reach of Get Rich Or Die Tryin' isn't here. But certain cultural moments (who would refute that the release Get Rich
was one?) can't be replicated, and what Curtis lacks in credible grit, it more than makes up for in finesse. Never let it be said that you can't be fierce and flow at the same time: "I Get Money" glides back to the old school in sound--there's a house party happening behind this track--but sends out a modern message, "I'll Still Kill," with Akon, underscores 50's continued thug-hood with a lethal hook, and "Follow My Lead," with the smoothie Robin Thicke, is a finger-popper worth 100 plays for its sly mood alone. May the best rapper, if there is one, keep rapping. --Tammy La Gorce
Bought this cd on release day. I had been a fan of his "Get Rich or Die Trying" album, but wasn't too impressed with "The Massacre," apart from a few good songs.
I was extremely disappointed with this cd at first. I found it extremely bland and nearly unlistenable. After listening through it once, I literally shelved it till a few days ago. Upon a 2nd listen, the album is actually pretty good. I'm not sure what made me change my mind, but I now listen to it a lot more often.
It's nothing special, but it's not terrible. 3 out of 5 is what it gets.
Now, for a real cd, check out T.I.'s "Paper Trail" if you haven't already. THAT'S an album.

the only thing wrong with this album is its just like the first two. every song is about the same thing and its time for fifty to go in a new direction. if some one else would of droped this album it would get better reviews.

If you like Curtis then you will LOVE.. Drug Users Handbook by Tony Yayo. This is one of the best of 2008 which also features: Lloyd Banks, SOSA, and T.I.. Go check it out.

Do not buy this album if you are a Rap/Hip Hop fan because your ears will literally bleed from hearing this. I thought his first album was okay but the rest sucked a**. I hope he keeps his promise about if Kanye sold more than him he would quit singing. I am tired of 50 thinking he is a good singer I would rather listen to Clay Aiken or Big Rueben. F**k the 50 fans all their doing is killing Rap/Hip Hop by supporting this guy.
