As a crack-dealing, bullet-riddled, tattooed thug, it is hard to believe that one of 50 Cent's influences was Michael Jackson. Which song in Michael's catalogue suggested that one needed to hustle and deal drugs? Regardless, like so many others riding the Michael Jackson Death Train, 50 Cent has released another mixtape which was (supposedly) influenced by the late singer. Things start out promising with the opening tracks which explore the darker, tougher 50 while abandoning high-end production for a grittier one. However, things quickly take a turn for the worst as various R & B singers lends their "talents" to the choruses of a number of tracks while 50 raps over what sounds like early 90s cheese R & B. 50 fans check it out; all others proceed cautiously.
