    I always loved Yayo's debut btw, it's not the best, but I like it.

    For sure, he already had Beg For Mercy + two good solos before he fell. He kept G-Unit on float after Banks started to fall until 50 destroyed him.

    The Massacre as a follow up to GRODT was a massive failure. Sure, it had sales, but the sales of an album back then were largely driven by the previous album. Of course the follow up to a classic is going to have sales. The Massacre release is when I quit following 50 Cent. It was that massively disappointing.

    I don't get how some of you can put TOAPF above any other album G-Unit put out. It helped to have some catchy hooks and features but Yayo is garbage

    Yayo was fire before 50 became massive. He dropped some good verses here and there.

    Massacre would’ve been better if he saved mixtape cuts, and some of the cuts he gave Game.

    I agreed for the first half of this sentence. I was too disappointed. But not enough to turn me off of his music. Coming from GRODT was always going to be a swing and a miss.

    I mean, that’s the point where it happened. Nothing after that was any good either or I would have bumped it.

    Sorry for your luck man.. I guess I was the right age that album completely took over the clubs everything he touched was a b-----r. Massacre was not the same type album as GRODT for sure but it was of the same caliber imo just different. Like sure if I had to choose obviously I’m gonna say Get Rich was better.

    Massacre is a solid project imo it just isn’t in the same league as Get Rich nor Power of the Dollar.

    Fifs got two classic albums... potd and grodt. I always regard the first g unit album classic as well.
