it's been a while since we had a book this awesome come into the music library, hence the long awaited return of the music library book of the week!
it's 50 cent's from pieces to weight!
i think it might be a movie/cd tie-in, as the header on the inside flap reads "get rich or die tryin'"--oh, 50 cent, you rascal!* but he's ready for anyone who might front:
i wrote this book to explain the world i come from. to a lot of people, i may be too young to reflect on life. and they may be right. but i'd be wasting my blessings if i didn't use the attention i'm getting to shed light on the experiences that have caused me to say the things i say and make the kind of music i make. i want to explain my environment to those who don't come any closer to it than the records they buy or the images they see on television. people want the truth. even if they can't handle it, they want it. i let you know that i survived nine bullets not to sell records, but because it's the truth. every time i sit down for an interview, i'm asked, "well, 50, how did it feel to get shot nine times? . . . "
pretty crappy, that's how! what lame interviewers.

That is a pretty lame question. Should've asked him what he did to deserve getting shot nine times. I don't know where Fitties from, but most people around these parts have it coming when they get lit up. He must've seriously pissed someone off to have them unload a clip in his ass.
