Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
The buzz around the release of Guess Who's Back?, which combines New York rapper 50 Cent's unreleased Power of the Dollar with various of his raps and freestyles, was surely intensified by the news that he had signed to Eminem's Shady / Aftermath label for a reported million dollars. This Queens native doesn't need state-of-the-art production or celebrity affirmation to foster a reputation, though--these eighteen grimy tracks find their creator affirming and reaffirming his street identity like a mantra. "Only time we left the hood," he raps, "Was on Monopoly boards." 50 Cent's bête noir is "rap going commercial"--that's Nelly, Ma$e, but especially P-Diddy, who he spoofs on "That's What's Up" in a thuggish paean to self-awareness in the hood: "Every breath I take/ Every step I take/ Every move I make/ I got a Ruger on my hip".

Guess Who's Back will be lapped up by fans of New York rap kingpin Nas, who makes a couple of quick cameos here. But even alone, 50 Cent is a more-than-capable wordsmith--see stand-out track is "Life's On The Line", where he threatens the rap community to back up their words with bullets as beats ack-ack-ack like tommy-gun slugs. It's the display of a man that thinks he's invulnerable--and a sage observation on "U Not Like Me" confirms it all: "Only the good die young/ I'm not eligible for that. --Louis Pattison
CD Description
GUESS WHO'S BACK could mislead the uninitiated in that it'sfar from a repackaging on the coattails of the fierce rapper's multi-platinum breakthrough GET RICH OR DIE TRYIN'. Thiscollection culled from the Queens rapper's much sought-after mix tapes and one shelved major-label release snuck out ona small label a few months prior to his Eminem-aided 2003 coming-out party on Shady Records.
The title plays on his high-profile feuds with Ja Rule and Murder Inc. (among others); 50 Cent's been shot, stabbed, and caught up in tons of intrigue, but he's back. Unbowed he stands on the cover of GUESS WHO'S BACK, his figure a blur pointing a very clear gun just to the left of the camera. He backs up the bluster of this stance with a furious, uncompromising flow that's closerto the streets than his Number One album. While undergroundheads will have most of the tracks, newer fans will get a glimpse of where 50 Cent came from. Nas, 50's most obvious lyrical cousin in both imagery and severity, appears on a few tracks, including the brutal "Too Hot". 50 Cent is the epitome of the street (which makes his mainstream success all themore remarkable) and GUESS WHO'S BACK stands as a document of his authenticity.
