The Dr Dre-produced undertaking went straight to primary and was a genre-defining physique of labor.

As such, this yr, the Queens emcee (actual identify Curtis Jackson) has been talking closely on the album and not too long ago opened as much as Rebecca Judd on her Apple Music 1 radio present. When requested by the host what he was dreaming of following the discharge of the undertaking, Jackson responded, “If you had asked me to make a wish in 2003, I would’ve just wished that my music was a hit. I didn’t see 20 years ahead in music like that. I’m just that at the moment for it to work.”

When requested if he ever thought he could be a one-hit marvel, the ‘In Da Club’ musician asserted “no” as a result of he had worked under Jam Master Jay for many years earlier than his mainstream breakout and knew the formulation to make hits. 

Explaining why hip-hop does produce so many one-hit MCs, Jackson defined, “What’s crazy is most artists, they think they’re ready before they are. Most good artists, they’ve thought they were ready before they actually good at it, but they’ve had that window of time to work that allowed them to actually become good enough. That’s why we have one-hit wonders in hip-hop culture.”

So they be stuck with that one hit.”

Nonetheless, there may be one observe featured on Get Rich Or Die Tryin’ that he’s not too keen on.

Revealing his least favorite tune from the album, Jackson disclosed, “‘Many Men’ was my least favourite at that point because, musically we was in the boom-bap phase. We was in that hard-hitting intensity, the energy on the records, and it’s the slowest song on Get Rich or Die Tryin’. And it’s now the tempo that the artists are rapping to. So the fast tempo, hard-hitting beats, that was that era, that time period. And the whole album had it.”
