this song doesnt only sound amazing and has amazing skill involved in the lyrics ("While you’re making a concert of convicts who Stumbled through the contest I’m taking the Concept of convex and putting it in a concave context" that is GOOD alliteration) its also adressing a real issue, the amazing amount of rip-offs only looking to make money out of honest artists, and how much the cat empire hates them.

also: "I want some culture Never mind the cheese Just want to hear music And originality

I want some culture Never mind the TV Just want to hear music Down at the 303" they are calling to our attention the constant loss of our culture, with the youth wasting away in front of the TV (which is NOT culture), and don't care any more about the culture anymore. and its true. i mean.. if people call 50 cent an 'artist' and his 'music' 'good' then there is something wrong. i always amaze myself at hw many more ways rappers like him can come up with more ways to show off their wealth to the world, taking pride in their poor background which they havent been in for ages, and degrading women. that would be the only skill they have, and thats a pretty useless one.
