HOLLYWOOD BIG WIGS REPORTEDLY ARE SAYING THAT 50 CENT IS LOSING APPEAL IN THE URBAN MARKET

August 29, 2008. If this report is true, rapper 50 Cent has a lot more to be worried about than some mixtape beef. MediaTakeOut.com has learned that Hollywood insiders feel that rapper 50 Cent is losing his appeal in the urban market.
According to the website Woooha.com, 50 Cent's new movie Righteous Kill -which also stars actors Robert DeNiro and Al Pacino - is trying their best to distance themselves from the platinum selling artist. Why?? Not because of his criminal past .... But because the filmmakers reportedly no longer believe that 50 is appealing to the urban market.

Here's the website's report:

The real reason the studio cut Curtis out of the campaign is because their research and exit poll information showed that 50 actually was not the urban or young demographic box office draw they were hoping for.

50 basically can’t draw in the core demographic that used to buy his albums by the millions. The box office let down of Get Rich or Die Tryin’ should have been a hint of things to come.

It’s no secret in the music world that 50 Cent has lost some mainstream appeal, but in the film world you don’t necessarily need multi-platinum albums to have a successful film career (Common, Mos Def, etc.) you just need to appeal to the urban demo. 50 clearly is losing that appeal.

This is AWFUL news for 50 if its true. Think about it ... his entire BRAND might be at stake ...

Although I never liked his music, I used to respect his hustle because he was makin' big money and puttin' people on, but his actions show the hoe in that nigga, especially that stunt with the Game's album. If you stand with 50 after that shit, you's a dick rider.

Comment by Aqua Tha Drumma on September 1, 2008 at 9:56am: Its very clear that 50 has lost maybe not his appeal but something else ever since the massacre it has been downhill. The G-unit Brand has never really caught on unless your shopping out of burlington coat factory & The Latest G-Unit album was an epic failure ranking only a 3 out of 5 on iTunes. Essentially 50 has fallen off & with the so called retirement battle with kanye & losing, that should have been the most blatent notion that he should sop while he is ahead. In addition to allowing a free download of Game's album, that was surely a move of stupidity, it seems like he cant seem to make or keep friends as of the late 4-5 years ranging from Vivica, Fat Joe, Rocsi, The Game & as of late Young Buck which was 50's only lead into the south. Im not sure about you guys but there may have been a reason 50 was shot 9 times, hmmm!
