50 Cent - "In da Club"

[emerald]

One of the biggest rap songs, and hits in general. "In da Club" was met to critical acclaim and topped multiple worldwide charts, and peaked at #1 on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, and Mainstream Top 40 charts.



For as much flack that this rapper gets, this is still an undeniable bop.

I LOVE IT! Classic. The beat of this song is still everything.

It's funny looking back now. At the time (and until the late 00's or so) Hip Hop was all I listened to. So much Hip Hop. I still like this genre of music a lot these days, but I don't feel the need to listen to it (in general) nearly as much or as obsessively as I used to...

[Wavey✨️]

This beat, the lyrics, never get old. 50 was on point.

[brady47]

One of the top rap classics of all time. I loved this.

[Best In The World]

As everyone else has said, one of the all-time rap classics. I love it and it still sounds great a dozen years later.

[surfy]

His best song, easily. One of the best rap songs of the 2000s! Such a jam!

[Glove Slap]

Probably the definitive single of that decade. Indestructible to this day and beyond.

[Live Your Life]

Yeah, this is definitely a rap classic.

[Deleted]

Agree with Surf, it's definitely his best.

[LBTrocks]

Love it, not gonna lie. This and "Candy Shop" are the two songs of his that I actively listen to.

This is still a jam! It has held up really well and it still sounds fresh.

The local stations used to play a medley which added in bits of Beyonce's "Sexy Little Thug" version into it. It was hot stuff.

Classic! I can never forget that time when a girl had asked me in school if I have heard of 50 cent. I thought she was asking me if I had 50 cents, so I took out a 50 cent and she was like noooo. 🤣🤣🤣

#58 on Billboard's 500 Greatest Pop Songs

There’s a world in which the intro part of 50 Cent’s “In Da Club” — you know, the “Go shawty, it’s your birthday!” part — is all the chorus that the rapper’s breakout smash needs. But after those opening seconds, 50 Cent had already moved on to the song’s actual “You can find me in da club” chorus, then onto shouting out Dr. Dre and Eminem, who had scooped him into the studio and put him in a position to win. Throughout “In Da Club,” 50 plows ahead, unfurling his violent past, bottle-popping present and impossibly bright future while his flow destroys everything in its path. Paired with those menacing strings and bass-blown drums, 50 Cent turns from a much-hyped mixtape phenom into a crossover rap superhero. — J. Lipshutz

great song

[B-Boy]

I remember hearing this for the first time and thinking that the beat was so good. Next thing I know it's on every station on pop, rhythmic and urban. lol.

I still enjoy it, but not as much as I did 20 years ago.

Fun Fact: The beat was originally intended for D12.

I still hear this song in LA on the hip hop stations and might I add that this is a timeless hip hop song.
