https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H7s3uEQESVc&ob=av2e

"so seductive" is such a gay song

"Outta Control" was my favorite single of the entire '00s...although I don't necessarily know the remix, unless that's the hit version.

two dudes softy singing back and forth about being horny

"outta control" beat is probably the best production imo

ha, "Disco Inferno" was when I started liking 50

didn't vote for it tho

which track has 'yayo grab the condoms im in room 203' or w/e

fav beat is 'ill whip ur head'

which track has 'yayo grab the condoms im in room 203' or w/e

idk i don't think that was actually a "single"

my favorite part of that video was them ripping off julian casablanca's first impressions of earth wardrobe

lord that song is fucking shit

'i get money' is probably the last straight-up classic g-unit single to me

damn so many classics on this list

i miss g-unit

yeah i don't think that's challenging, unless you're a ny fetishist who considers "beamer, benz, bentley" a classic

xp to deej

y'all heard this:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7XL84zQZ1nw

^^^yeah this is dope

missed this, it's a good un -

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=beI66nntjBw

i look back fondly on tony yayo, he was weirdly charismatic on the low

this is between 'outta control' and 'stunt 101' - will probably vote latter when i should former

WHERE'S THE ORIGINAL VERSION OF "OUTTA CONTROL"??!?? Fuck that remix horseshit.

50 cent ft ne-yo - baby by me

Proud voter ^^

"Let Me In" or "I Get Money"

the original "outta control" is incredible, would've prob voted for it. don't care for the remix as much.

1. ayo technology
2. get buck
3. hate it or love it
4. poppin' them thangs

^^all classics to me.

many of the rest i don't remember at all.

someone clarify me what the remix issue is with 'outta control'? i know there's an unrelated track on the massacre called the same but the popular one that was in the charts i recall as originally being 'outta control (remix)' - presumed it was a remix of a mobb deep solo cut that 50 jumped on iirc

It's hard to decide between Disco Inferno, Window Shopper and Candy Shop. All of them are great Fifty cuts.

yeah this is the original album version that i love -

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-4U4NvKnfSM

and this is the remix that got in the charts, that appears to have nothing in common with the original - i presumed it was a "remix" like a "part 2" or something

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3Oux1lN__4

top 10 for me:
1. Hate It Or Love It
2. I Get Money
3. On Fire
4. So Seductive
5. How We Do
6. I Know You Don't Love Me*
7. Hustler's Ambition
8. Stunt 101
9. Best Friend*
10. Get Up*

* not options on poll

xp oh right ok, now i listen again they are sort of related.

you people are insane thinking it comes within a million miles of the remix though.

voted for "On Fire" because it's not getting enough love here

oh yeah good call with 'best friend' (another one with the confusing remix/part 2 treatment iirc?), so slept on

all the jerk music "teach me how to" songs shoulda been called "Jerk 101," "Dougie 101," etc.

al's top three would be my top three. still kinda bugged out after all these years that eminem ever had a hand in a beat that good.

seriously

"beat that good" = "on fire" of course.

'i get money' is probably the last straight-up classic g-unit single to me

^^^

(though to be fair there are several on this list i'm not sure i've heard)

my bad on leaving out "i know you don't love me" -- foolish to assume that there was more than one tony yayo song that people cared about

"ayo technology" is good but the bootleg version that cut out all the 50 verses is better

i assume stephen ilxor has jumped the stars of the lid boxset & is now just openly trolling

banks really was a good rapper once upon a time -- i think he has all the best verses on those g-unit songs

"on fire" hasn't aged terribly great to me tho

i haven't heard "On Fire" enough in recent years to really judge how it's aged but i still love it, wish i did hear it more. not shocked that Eminem did minor co-production on something that good, was always more impressed by, say, the "Renegade" beat.

i prefer "disco inferno"

i feel like the productions are similar, which is why i bring it up, but maybe i'm wrong, i can't listen to them at the moment

they are similar, but "On Fire" was kinda fresh-sounding when it dropped, and "Disco Inferno" was the half-assed attempt to repeat the formula 6 months later

voted "wanna get to know you" just because i love it

50 cent ft olivia - candy shop
50 cent - just a lil bit

godawful

never really got the love for "Wanna Get To Know You," imo the other Joe/G-Unit song that was out at the same time was better

"wanna get to know you" beat is pretty all time -- just a nice, low key, smooth joint

u dont get why an awesome fucking marvin gaye loop is incredible???

that sample is beyond classic

i dunno maybe i'd rather listen to just the Marvin song, or even a Joe solo track over that beat? most of the G-Unit verses on that are pretty dull.

i think they're more gross than dull!

^^^has never made a 40 year old feel like a young lady xp

i think that was my first exposure to the phrase "government name"

or maybe the first one that i remember

'i get money' is probably the last straight-up classic g-unit single to me

i'm really the only ringtone nerd who stans for before i self destruct, aren't i?

most certainly

I'd never heard the original "Outta Control" till it was posted above. Yes, completely different song than the Mobb Deep version. I suppose I could get to like it over time, but on first listen, it's not even in the same universe as the remix.

no it was a solid album, 'stanning' would go a bit far but iirc goon consensus was that it was a respectable effort

Write-in

This is a cover of the Danny Whitten song, I assume?

A music video was released. It can be bought on iTunes and is as long as the single. The Game makes a cameo in the video. Near the end, The Game and Young Buck (who are now former G-Unit members) can be seen swapping chains briefly, signifying the trust that once existed among them.

lots of people seemed to like BISD as an album, i probably would've if i'd copped it, but a hoy hoy you're not saying it has classic singles are you?

def "Ayo Technology"

voted "wanna get to know you" just because i love it

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

don't really get "Window Shopper," to me that was the point where all his hooks started to sound the same in a bad way

wanna get to know you is amazing

on fire is the best em production effort

outta control rmx is slaying me right now

this thread kicks ass

pretty much all of the good songs got votes except for "hustler's ambition"
