Then he moved on, using the credibility and relationships he built while building his music career to create non-music entertainment products. How did he disappear like that? It is not that he “disappeared” as much as it is that the public just stopped responding to his music - for reasons I explain below. Is it that he changed his life views and went on his business ventures? No. Most people change as they are exposed to more things in life. Most rappers “feed” their listeners a variation of these five things: 1. I am better than other rappers 2. Women love me 3. I have money, cars, and property 4. I am a tough guy 5. I’m a hustler I call them the five food groups of hip hop. Some rappers talk about those things because that is what they see around them. Other rappers focus on those things because they have determined that those are the things that the public wants to hear. Here are two Jay Z lyrics that illustrate the second reason: “I want to rap like Common sense. I sold 5 mill. I ain’t been rappin’ like Common Sense.” “Being intricate will get you wood, critic.” The public has an appetite for those five food groups. And the public will reward you for packaging your message and delivering it in a compelling way. But the public will eventually get tired of listening to you talk about those things and move on to the next guy who is essentially talking about the same stuff. That is basically what happened to 50 Cent.(12) What happened to 50 Cent? He was once the best rapper, how did he disappear like that?
