Episode 17: 50 Cent and the G-Unit
G-g-g-g-g-G-G-G-g-g-g-G UNIIIIIIIIT!!!! The boys are back this week talking about one of the most underrated rap groups and the king of early aughts rap music… 50 Cent. We love the unit and we love 50’s music so this one was a lot of fun.
In this episode, we chop it up about the history of the group, their impact, the power of 50’s melodic flow, and his larger-than-life character. We talk about how 50 Cent’s Wikipedia has one of the hardest opening lines we’ve ever read and discuss 50’s career and storied past (including his autobiographic film). We do a deep dive into his first three albums and reminisce on his amazing run in the 2000s. We also go over the various beefs 50 has been involved in (even within the unit itself), 50’s tendency to go at any and every one of his peers, the ultimate downfall of the group, and we muse on what we’d like to hear from them all going forward. We talk about Otis’ fit selection from his mid-200s rapper phase and his Yao Ming jersey outfit, compare and contrast each of the members of G-Unit, talk about the surprising rappers who nearly made it into the Unit, and ask some hard questions like who of the group (aside from 50) is the best lyricist and rapper?
We included a lil’ treat for y’all in this episode too. Enjoy a radio play written by Otis Morris! It's definitely not to be taken too seriously. Otis Morris and BIRD PROTOCOL present "The Unit"! 50 and the G-Unit square off against the mad king Kanye and his five infinity plaques. Who will emerge victorious and restore balance to the streets? Tune in to find out.
Also, we mentioned the community discord in this episode and said we would drop a link but the invites only last for a certain amount of time so If you want to get hip to the Cemetery Sound community, send one of us a message on Twitter or Instagram and we’ll share an invite link with you.
Next week? We’re covering a classic flick and taking a trip back. It’s Otis’ birthday pick and definitely a good one.
