    T.I. has never made an album as bad as “Before I Self Destruct” or “Animal Ambition”... it’s all swings and roundabouts. 50 has the higher highs, but also has the lowest lows.
    Selection would be critical for both. T.I. could beat 50 if 50 only chose his “hits”.

    If that's really what the game is about then Em shouldn't even bother. Don't think he ever cared about club popularity despite 'smack that' being an attempt at just that.

    50 still got TI beat by a long shot tho'.

    I hope that this will be done live like with Luda and Nelly. I'll happily stay up to watch this!

    T.I. is one of those rappers who's underrated because he got overshadowed by others in this prime but is actually far nicer than people think.

    In a cypher, T.I. would chew 50 Cent up and spit him out and 50 himself knows this.

    But, when it comes to hits, it really depends. They both have a mix of timeless street hits, pop hits, and stuff that hasn't aged well.

    If 50 chooses his songs wisely, I could see him pull a W.
    1. Many Men
    2. In Da Club
    3. Wanksta
    4. Hate It Or Love It
    5. How To Rob
    6. Hustler's Ambition
    7. 21 Questions
    8. Stunt 101
    9. I'm The Man
    10. Outta Control(Remix)
    11. I Get Money
    12. High All The Time
    13. How We Do
    14. P.I.M.P.
    15. Patiently Waiting
    16. Heat
    17. A Baltimore Love Thing
    18. Buzzin(Remix)
    19. Down On Me
    20. What Up Gangsta

    T.I.'s advantage, though, is that he's had more hits over a longer stretch and his music as a whole has generally aged better.

    If 50 gets to include Eminem and Dre, though, T.I. is finished.

    You’re right about highest highs vs lowest lows but it’s not really about the better albums tho. Aren’t these versuz things just straight up hit for hit? 50 has that.

    This is a good battle nonetheless.

    Technically yeah but people actually grade on the quality and timelessness of the hit more than how big it is which is why Nelly ended up losing to Ludacris despite having bigger hits.

    Yeah the more I think about this the more I know 50 would murk. What’s TI gonna get people hype by playing Dead and Gone? Stack up all the total hits from both of these guys and pretty sure Fif got the top 3.

    24s is a f---ing b-----r tho don’t get it twisted

    T.I. Sounds a little uneducated with that Instagram response. This is the battle of two r-----ed people. 50 still can’t speak properly (him getting shot 9 times is not an excuse because it didn’t actually happen, look it up and read the police report).
    And
    T.I. inspects his daughters hymen every morning to make sure it’s still intact. Not out of the ordinary but a little uncommon.
