A vulgar album from a young American gangster rapper, 50 Cent's The Massacre essentially says how great and amazing he is. The unmeasurable arrogance displayed in songs like God Gave Me Style and Candy Shop are either saying he was given great qualities by a divine power God gave me style, putting him above others from born qualities, or treating women like whores and toys of pleasure with no respect I'll take you to the candy shop, I'll let you lick the lolly pop.
Despite the constant profanities and vulgar expressions within the album it sold over a million copies in its first week of sale in the United States. A number of songs from this album are played in clubs worldwide, in particular the Candy Shop track.
However for those who fancy rap, this album would be considered a must buy, and there are some songs within it that go further into morality then a teaspoon. My Toy Soldier for example is about how 50 created someone and that he is what he is because of him, I put that battery in his back, I'm the reason why he move like that. Later on in the song he tells how past friends became foes and this is a shift from most of the album, which is about guns or women or guns shooting women.
An enjoyable album for any youth in love with rap to listen to, but for those with maturity and realize there is more to life then sex and money, maybe not the best buy.
