Music Appreciation: 50 Cent
- Posted on Apr 22nd 2010 3:00PM by Benjy Eisen
50 Cent works with beats that'll have you working up a sweat in no time. Not so coincidentally, he also has his own brand of Vitamin Water (Formula 50) if you happen to be thirsty. Smart man. As someone who clearly knows what he wants and when, the rapper says he couldn't get through the weekend without "a little bit of Taylor Swift on the Walkman." Which is the more surprising part of that statement -- that Fiddy listens to Taylor Swift, or that he rocks a Walkman?- Filed under: Music Appreciation

Who really cares about either one....neither has much talent....country music is merely a hollow shell of the past....some of the songs coming out are absolutely unbearable....and I'd take Stevie Nicks forty times over b4 Swift....!!! Country music is full of "pop" kids that don't even know the difference between a cow and a quarter horse....!!!

Hello Pearlhanna
50 Cent sounds very endearing. Cute story. Its nice to see talent loves other talent. I love 50 Cent... now if Taylor and 50 Cent got together and made a song or fell in love or both, I'd be happy for both of them.

50 Cents has no talent and Taylor Swift doesn't have any talent, either. It makes perfect sense to me.

I wished that I had the voice of either one so I could make the money and enjoy life as they do, doing something that they seem to fully enjoy doing.

Of course! Why wouldn't he? I'm a 40 year old white woman that listens to Mobb Deep. Think outside the box. Aren't we beyond that yet?

50 Cent listening to Taylor Swift. Pretty Cool. I remember when rap became real popular in the late %u201880s and a bunch of rappers said they listened to Motley Crue, Iron Maiden, Nugent, Aerosmith, KISS, Priest, etc because they liked the real hard driving beat. Then as those guys aged, they admitted they listened to rap for the same reason.
I think it was because of the video with Aerosmith & Run DMC. All of them have done some kind of Metal/Rap. KISS did a metal/rap in 1984, %u201CAll Hells Breaking Loose.%u201D

It doesn't matter what genre an icon describes to, all musos will appreciate crossover class if the performer has his/her heart and soul in it.

I think it's great that he listens to different genres of music. It makes him more well rounded as an artist.
