If you believe everything you hear, Curtis is 50 Cent's bid to be hip-hop king--the rumor goes that he issued it the same day Kanye West released his Graduation CD to spawn a sales race and thus, a) establish superiority, or b) retire with his head hung low. But here's what might not have occurred to 50: Given enough talent and a fully loaded speed-dial--the kind that can raise Timbaland, Akon, Dr. Dre, Mary J. Blige, and Eminem faster than the sickest rapper can stitch together a verse--it's possible for two diabolically good discs to drop the same day. Forgetting the Kanye competition for a moment, Curtis might come up short in a race with its creator's other albums--the rawness and reach of Get Rich Or Die Tryin' isn't here. But certain cultural moments (who would refute that the release Get Rich… was one?) can't be replicated, and what Curtis lacks in credible grit, it more than makes up for in finesse. Never let it be said that you can't be fierce and flow at the same time: "I Get Money" glides back to the old school in sound--there's a house party happening behind this track--but sends out a modern message, "I'll Still Kill," with Akon, underscores 50's continued thug-hood with a lethal hook, and "Follow My Lead," with the smoothie Robin Thicke, is a finger-popper worth 100 plays for its sly mood alone. May the best rapper, if there is one, keep rapping. --Tammy La Gorce

not bad but not good enough June 16, 2008
W. Scales (ny,ny)
the only thing wrong with this album is its just like the first two. every song is about the same thing and its time for fifty to go in a new direction. if some one else would of droped this album it would get better reviews.

If you like Curtis then you will LOVE.. Drug Users Handbook by Tony Yayo. This is one of the best of 2008 which also features: Lloyd Banks, SOSA, and T.I.. Go check it out.

Do not buy this album if you are a Rap/Hip Hop fan because your ears will literally bleed from hearing this. I thought his first album was okay but the rest sucked a**. I hope he keeps his promise about if Kanye sold more than him he would quit singing. I am tired of 50 thinking he is a good singer I would rather listen to Clay Aiken or Big Rueben. F**k the 50 fans all their doing is killing Rap/Hip Hop by supporting this guy.

im not obsessed with 50 cent or g-unit, i just like good rap music. people that find all sorts of problems with 50 these days need to start listening to new genres of music (and put on a dress and tuck it between their legs). I'll still kill, I Got Money, Movin' On Up, All Of Me, and Curtis 187 are definately some of the best rap songs of 2007. so get this cd if you are a fan of rap and buy cds
