Mothers Against 50 Cent Coloring Book

Since 50 Cent looks like he's spent a goodly number of his waking hours slapping ink all over his body, it's not too surprising to see that he's decided to let young fans do the same -- by making himself the subject of a brand new coloring book aimed at bringing gangsta values to the pre-K set.

Oddly, the 'Gangsta Coloring Book' -- like many of Mr. Cent's efforts -- hasn't met with universal approval, particularly among folks who'd prefer to have their youngsters go on believing that the word "b*tch" is only used to refer to a female dog. One such nay-sayer, Michelle Forbes of the group Mothers Against Guns, calls the tome "sick" and is demanding that Britain's Topshop chain pull it from the shelves of its stores. 50 hasn't made an official comment on the controversy, but we'd imagine it's only a matter of time before we hear a mixtape tune telling Ms. Forbes exactly what she can do with her bangers and mash.

It's funny how the very same people who do not like 50 cent or rap music are here reading and commenting on him. These are the very same people who make him more famous or should I say infamous. But needless to say he has a right to express himself just like the rest of us. Do not condemn the entire rap industry just for your opinion of one person. People it is not that serious it's just a coloring book. For people in the hood this is a reality of every day life. If you raise your kids in the right path this coloring book is not going to damage the work you put in as a good parent. If it does then obviously you did not do your job as a parent correctly.

Look, dont even get me started on Biggie and Pac, it's not right what happened to them, but Fitty' is a cool dude. I love rap and all other kinds of music, but all of you making rude and stupid ass comments just need to grow up please, for all of us. Just keep your opinions to yourselves if it is negative. Don't hate on him because he's so rich he could buy your kidney with no questions from you.

50 cent is a murderer and a rapist and he and his friends should all go die. anyone who thinks its as easy as "don't buy it" is an idiot. It ruins the cuture and sara who knws you might be the next rape victim or shot bystander. Yes, it CAN happen, even to YOU.

Man, most of you are wrong. I don't know his intentions, but 50 cent is possibly the best rapper since tupac. You all just jealous that he's 100 times richer than all of you put 2gether

OMG this is so funnnyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And to all of the parents who are complaining about this why don't you just raise your kids right and if you raise them right they probably will not want to get it and they might not even know what they are coloring! But I'd buy it!

Who are your parents to wish death upon someone? Some people just need to grow up. The reason you don't like him is b/c you don't understand him. I love 50 cent and his music. Just b/c you don't like him doesn't mean you have to wish death on him. You really need to get a life Sator. Oh you don't have one so that's why you try and down talk other people. Can we say "LOSER".........
