50 The Internet Troll is so much more entertaining than 50 the Rapper, and I liked GRODT AND The Massacre.

 

[sixteen-bit]

This guy... A common thief who became rich and powerful glorifying the common thief life. He's just the real life equivilant of Gannon.

I think I am in love with this post.

Ski Mask Way by 50 Cent (adapted for snow shoveling season)

Frosty that scarf is nice
that's what you bought from me
that hat is nice
that's what you bought from me
that carrot nose is nice
That's what you bought from me?
Driveway snowed in, for a hundo I'll shovel it properly

I get mine the fast way, ski mask way
Make money
Make money, money, money
Frosty if you ask me
It's the only way
Take money
Take money, money, money

I see Frostys wit that ice on, rims shined up
This towns one big driveway waitin to get cleeaned up
I holla at A-I peoples to get snowplows
They charged me 500 a piece for two Toros
Then im back doin me
Im back out on a spree
Catch me n' Frostys slippin out pumpin dat D
Give me a lil' crew I'll have em' pumpin for me
The more driveways I shovel the more paper we see
Change my name in N-Y they don't know where I be
Yeah a Frosty shovelin snow but a Frosty low key

Frosty that scarf is nice
that's what you bought from me
that hat is nice
that's what you bought from me
that carrot nose is nice
That's what you bought from me?
Driveway snowed in, for a hundo I'll shovel it properly

I get mine the fast way, ski mask way
Make money
Make money, money, money
Frosty if you ask me
It's the only way
Take money
Take money, money, money

It's kind of like getting paid to work out.

50 Cent: *laughs*

 

[enzo_gt]

Reading this headline, I thought it would be a clever bar but I didn't think Curtis would sound that clever. Good for him though.

Spoiler

Who would be the first rapper touting that he made more than $100 an hour "shoveling snow"?

:lol Would make a good Jeezy line or something.

He should release it. :lol

50 is big investor/owner in Gunnar eyewear.

http://www.crunchgear.com/2010/12/1...sts-in-gunnar-optiks-hi-tech-eyewear-company/

Guess who’s invested just a li’l bit in Gunnar Optiks, a high-end “digital performance eyewear” company? Hip-Hop’s own 50 Cent, that’s who! He lets his watch talk for him, his whip talk for him, his 3D GLASSES~! talk for him…

I love how the writer of that article put links to every song he referenced. "Look how clever I am, fellas! LAWLZ 50 CENT!" What a twat.

 

[BloodySinner]

People pay him 100$ for him doing his workout. The guy is a master troll.

/Thread

 

[TrAcEr_x90]

He's clearly pretty smart and knows what he's doing.

hey is your avatar the XX? as in band?

 

[MIMIC]

Damn, he must be insanely bored.

 

[TrAcEr_x90]

hes rich for a reason. everything has to be about a hussle. He could have just shoveled for free, im sure thats what he wanted too. But something in his mind just wont let himself not make money somehow, hahaha. Can't blame the dude. It's like a donald trump mentality. They have so much damn money, but the thrill of finding a way to make it is more important.

 

[enzo_gt]

I knew 50 was one of the greatest trolls of our time when he made this.

 

[Parallax]

We need him at BlackGAF. :lol Maybe he would have gotten banned by Blackace.

please. 50 would troll just under the line not to get banned, but if he were, im sure someone would go down with him. and it would be awesome

I knew 50 was one of the greatest trolls of our time when he made this.

ive never seen that, but wow. master class indeed

 

[rizm]

:lol :lol 50 is the man.

 

[soultron]

Don't like his music or the way he represents himself, but I think it's cool that he did this. Even if he is charging $100, the neigbours he has probably light their cigars with singles.

It's nice to see someone who's loaded get off their ass, do some manual labour, and give back to the community. Even if he charged $100 for it.

First thing I've ever liked the guy for.

this pretty much IS the way he represents himself nowadays. Considering hes pretty much done with his Interscope contract outside of a greatest hits album and has been for quite a while now.

 

[MrSeaneyC]

Goddamn I had this man wrong, he is the comic genius of the internet.

What a legend.

 

[Kaako]

Well played 50, well played. :lol :lol
Must be nice.

 

[Anth0ny]

This guy is hilarious :lol

such a troll

 

[soultron]

True enough.

I never really followed the guy since I thought his music was cheese.

I'd have a beer with the guy now.

:lol :lol :lol

 

[Ignis Fatuus]

I love the pun.

"I bet anybody I'll make a grand moving snow today."

That's some clever shit.

And the 50 Cent and Ja Rule beef is much more fun when it's done via Twitter.

 

[MrSeaneyC]

I didn't even spot that!

There's no business like snow business eh?

 

[Ripclawe]

and that people is how you make a buck, look for an angle and hustle like crazy.

 

[Slavik81]

exactly... dude is about to make a thousand dollars not just in a day but... in an instant

SHOVELING SNOW.

He's not being paid for shoveling snow. The product he's selling is the experience of having a famous musician perform a personal service for you. This is, understandably, a hard market to break into.

 

[KevinCow]

I hate his music, but between this and showing up in that one kid's lip-syncing video, I'm starting to like the dude. :lol

 

[Lebron]

We need him at BlackGAF. :lol Maybe he would have gotten banned by Blackace.

The finest trolls never get banned. He would have been safe. Him and the Based God need accounts.

Also, throw in Soulja Boy. Though I'm sure he probably already has one, lurking in disguise.

 

[Big Baybee]

Goddamn do I hate 50 cent.

 

[Particle Physicist]

Wait.. what? Did he really go hang out with that youtube guy?

:O

 

[seat]

Well, this is certainly a great way to not help the economy.

 

[Lebron]

Wait.. what? Did he really go hang out with that youtube guy?

:O

Yes, he's that awesome.

fiddy is such a jackass. he seems like the type of dude that if you came up with a really brilliant practical joke he'd fund thousands of dollars to help you execute it.

 

[Sean]

I'm not into 50's music but I love the dude for his crazy antics on the internet.

This is another great video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8MXij4D7Ls

 

[davepoobond]

50 cent is like my idol or something like that

50 is one of the funniest people alive. 50 the asshole>>>>>>>>>>>>50 the rapper.

I like to think he was trying to prove a point, saying how easy it is for someone to go out and earn a buck. Maybe I am wrong but that is how I like to see it.

 

[Lebron]

Who is better, Kanye the asshole or 50 the asshole? I just don't know anymore.

Jesus, in the last day 50 has gone from zero to hero in my book, all thanks to GAF and Youtube.

Not that i'd pay him $100 to clear snow for me, get off my lawn Fiddy!

 

[mercenar1e]

I haven't seen Kanyes sarcastic side.. hes always a bitch

 

[Slavik81]

I sincerely hope that's not his point, because this would not make that point very well. He's leveraging a pretty unique personal position to charge those rates.

This would be vastly more entertaining if it were just for kicks, so I'm going to presume that's the case.

 

[Plywood]

Kanye makes jokes but can't take jokes, always bitches when people get on him for being an asshat.

 

[backbreaker65]

Y'all ain't seen shit, check him out while he was out here in LA around Nov. in Burbank at this cool little Karaoke bar called "Dimples". Not too many have seen this.

Here he is as Disguise as Roger, but everyone knew who he was

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMp893jYSHU

same night after he takes off the costume

The rates he's charging are because he is who he is, and the neighborhood he's in, but that doesn't mean others can't go out and shovel snow and still make some good dough.
