The reason why I get agree with 50 somewhat playing a part in ruining rap is because he made me focus on sales more than music, causing more people to make stupid radio records to increase sales...
I don't think it was that, but 50 brought negativity to rap.
He's one of the reasons east coast rap sort of fell off. He was going after other New York rappers. Everyone stopped working together and people thought beef could sell records and make you hot instead of concentrating on producing good music. Every new rapper was beefin with other new rappers. Labels started signing other 50 Cents. Meanwhile the south unified.
