50's back

Somewhat recently,i caught up with Curtis Jackson aka 50Cent's newest single "Baby By Me" which features Ne-Yo.
Earlier in the days when i started blogging, 50 had come up with a not-so-good "Curtis",which some say wasn't more than an "Amusement Park". Since that,his fans were expecting a lot from him.

Known for his great beats,the attitude in his music reflects the aggression that the fans love listening to. And thats exactly what he serves in his "Baby By Me".

Day-dreaming about a girl and a possible future with her in the "Baby" video,after a long time the rapidness,action and adrenaline is visible in his spirits. Teaming up with Ne-Yo gives him a variation option in the track. This 3minute 34second long track has got me hooked at the moment,though i'm still not very clear with the lyrics,i'll have to go through them(but this is 50,so lyrics shouldn't be the preference,right?). Though he doesn't get the girl in the video(she's already married to some poor chap and has kids),50 surely strikes the right notes with this track.

The track features a snippet from his earlier album "Curtis"'s, "I get Money" which was written 50 himself. "I get money" track was earlier said to be the best track in the album. His second album "The Massacre" seemed to be a massacre for his fans who were expecting really high after the groundbreaking "Get Rich or Die Tryin".And the interesting part. The cover for "Before i Self Destruct" shows 50 behind a cracked glass pane, and similar was "Get Rich"'s cover, where a bullet hole is visible through a glass pane,giving a sight at his 'bling' studded cross.

Call it 'a good holiday','desperation for a decent hit','experience' or whatever. 50 has somehow managed to return himself(and return for good) in the same package in which he was introduced. It'll promote Hip-Hop culture more.

Do you think the same?
