This song was the only way that my fam could understand what it was like for me in my addiction. It opened eyes. 8 years clean today but this was my life for over 20 years
I pray everyday that none of my family ever die from that shit 🐕 food. It’s hard to quit that stuff it’s like rehab is for nothing. You need methadone or there’s no since in trying to quit.
This song is incredibly well written. This really shows how talented 50 is as a writer this song is truly art. Every line is poetic and meaningful. I was in high school and I knew at the time this song was special. And I'm from Baltimore so even more so.
On a episode of 106 & Park before his second album came out the hosts asked him his favorite song on the album and he said this one because of what it talks about and how he raps as the drug talking to the addict. Genius songwriting
As A Teen I Always Wondered What He Meant By Hanging With Marvin, Ozzy Ect But Being Older And Truly Understanding This Song Is Just Beyond Genius 🧐🧐👍👍💪💪
JAYZ - I KNOW (anyone know which came 1st? college library wifi sucks i can't crash my shhh by double checking... pretty sure 50 1st then Jay but could be wrong..
If you listen to this and think he's talking about Love then it will sound average, but once you finally realize what he's actually talking about.. you realize this is a creative masterpiece... I first heard this song when I was like 13 and didn't gaf for it. Then I randomly heard it yrs later as I was older and realized what its actually about.. Amazing. Like I said, a creative masterpiece next to Nas "I gave you power"or "Rewind"
Same. I listened to this song as a middle schooler and took the lyrics literally as a toxic man/woman relationship (though the "slide your arm up under the spoon" line did imply drug abuse). Re-listening the song in college and realizing the entire song is about heroin addiction (50 Cent personifying heroin as an abusive boyfriend)....mind blown!
I listened to 50 Cent and the G-Unit crew since I was a kid. I played the 50 Cent Bulletproof the video game as a kid as well. That game was hella dope I wish they could remake that game for today’s systems they will always be one of my favorites in music 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Yeah I remember that The Massacre: Special Edition had a music video for each of its songs. But I remember thinking: that probably means that most of them suck.
Not his most popular nor best known song, but this is undoubtedly 50 Cent's best song. An entire song where he personifies heroin as a deeply abusive boyfriend and "love" as drug addiction.....that's genuine poetry
On a episode of 106 & Park before his second album came out the hosts asked him his favorite song on the album and he said this one because of what it talks about and how he raps as the drug talking to the addict. Genius songwriting
Ms Laura. I really respect ya honestly. My parents are recovering addicts. I was a addict myself. Its hard to get over but when your really tired u will stay off. Keep loving yourself and ya kids. They gonna be proud of your story once they are old enough to understand. Keep going one-day at a time.
This is the most CREATIVE TRACK in fifty’s whole catalogue I only understood the track after I got clean wow back in high school I used to jam to this and I never understood.
Lmao it took me a minute to realize he was talking about Heroin 🤯 in 2005 i was 16 just singing the song until i realized what he was actually talking about LoL. Made the song that more fire 🔥🔥
I chalk it up to 50 being frugal. 50 put up his own money (not interscope) to make videos for the songs on the massacre that weren't singles and to rerelease the album with videos to every song. Most of the videos are boring, cheaply made and not interesting.
First verse he is speaking about a pregnant women with the habit Second verse tells her how many other people are users or addicts like her some of the most famous people matter fact even her sister on the low … this is the drug in her ear in her mind taking over her life as he speaks for the drug … genius work
Haven't listened to this in atleast a decade...too remember the lyrics. Lol crazy...all of his songs from the first three albums plus the grodt soundtrack!!
ALL THESE YEARS and i only just found out at the end of 2022 that this song actually had a Music video to it. First time im ever seeing this video. this song DEEP AF!
If you're here in 2023 or 2024. You know this is one of the most slept on songs ever.
Facts!!!!!
First time seeing this video I think
Frrrrr
Still addicted 2024
Genius lyrics

Congrats baby keep going
Congratulations Idk you but im happy for you because you battled a tough fight and you whopped its ass and became champion keep it up and keep going
Strong work keep fighting!
Keep up the great work. 💪🏾👏🏾
50 switched gears to write this song. Showed his versatility as the Massacre had a little bit of everything.
Listening to this as an adult hit different! One of my favourite 50 songs. Masterpiece on his end.

for anyone who ever said music isn't art they need to just listen to this track
Facts C👊
Popping yesssss
That boy oh boy line, and the one about Marvin, Cobain, Ozzy, etc. Was just brilliant.
As A Teen I Always Wondered What He Meant By Hanging With Marvin, Ozzy Ect But Being Older And Truly Understanding This Song Is Just Beyond Genius 🧐🧐👍👍💪💪
It was. But was Marvin Gaye really on heroine ?
@@focused4841yeah
1 oh his most underrated hits plus he's a genius 4 talkin about h like this
right he murdered it
JAYZ - I KNOW (anyone know which came 1st? college library wifi sucks i can't crash my shhh by double checking... pretty sure 50 1st then Jay but could be wrong..
@@ebz3001
This came out in late 03 i believe, we'll jus say 04 bc that's when the album dropped. Jay's track came out in 08.
Most listeners not smart enough for these lyrics
The story of my city.

One of the best songs 50 made. It's a story and real aspect of life, and how serious addiction can get
A metaphorical masterpiece 👁
Si
if you here in 2021/2022you have excellent music taste
Or a heroin habit lol
This my shit!
Ma brudda
2022 classic 50
Right?!
so deep this track, definitely deserves way more views. plus this song has sentimental value from a certain time in my life......
100
Hate him or love him one of the greatest rappers ever
Well said.
Rt bro
top 2 2Pac and 50 Cent
He is the best
REAL SHIT
This definitely a top 10 50 track that’s underrated
2024 AND THIS STILL IS MY SHIT
Dope song 🎵 still 🔥 🔥 📛
50 solidified his position as one of the best storytellers
He’s in the Position of Power
16 years later and I still listen to The Massacre one of my favorite CDs by my favorite rapper 50 Cent
This track give me chills...
Its hard but dark. Love it. 50 a genius for this one
I've been cleaning for over 10 years. This song helped me through tuff time folks. I was a junkie. Not anymore. God is good.
I remember listenin to this as a kid now im like "oh shit😞😔🔥"
Right
No cap😂
he had the game in a knot when this album came out. Classic project
One of the most underrated songs ever
I listened to 50 Cent and the G-Unit crew since I was a kid. I played the 50 Cent Bulletproof the video game as a kid as well. That game was hella dope I wish they could remake that game for today’s systems they will always be one of my favorites in music 🔥🔥🔥🔥
lol me too
The penmanship here is highly undervalued, despite it's dark nature
Please play 20 times a day.My mom wrote the original vocal for the Delphonics. (N.Toney) I receive money to pay bills from this song.Thanks in advance
For those who don’t know, 50 dropped a video to all his songs on this album.
True
I have it.
The Massacre is classic his best work IMO
Yeah I remember that The Massacre: Special Edition had a music video for each of its songs.
But I remember thinking: that probably means that most of them suck.
@@AlchemyOfLife 💯💯 his songwriting at hooks got much better there than on GRODT, plus it's more diverse
Not his most popular nor best known song, but this is undoubtedly 50 Cent's best song. An entire song where he personifies heroin as a deeply abusive boyfriend and "love" as drug addiction.....that's genuine poetry
I was hooked on this track the very first time i heard it.
The best album from him. O melhor álbum dele. Lembro q meu tio tinha o DVD com todos os clipes do álbum, relíquia.
And who says 50 can’t be lyrical? Underrated song
50 Cents is a writer
He wrote hits for other artists.
2020 & I still loOoove this song! I know it’s about addiction to a drug... but, let’s be honest LOVE is one of the strongest addictions.
right right :)
idk. ive heard heroin is pretty bad.
He's genius on this one. Rapping about drugs and love overlapping them cleverly. 2005 east a great year for music🤟👌🏾
Pretty sure H is stronger
No it aint
People keep saying fifty don't have punch lines he went and do whole song a punchline. 🔥🔥🔥
That H ain't no joke.. still bumping this in 2020
Still bumping in 2019
👊
Me too
Right now
@@laurakuzma5657 👌
50 has a talent for hooks. he just kills it everytime
Hella underated definitely one of his top 5s
i rate it as one of his lyrical best too
Yeah this is music 2020 🦁🦁🦁
This is the literal definition of scary good
People thought Fif couldn't bring it like he did with this song... I love the underdog!!! Classic Shit!!!
This is literally DOPE!!😱🔥🔥
On a episode of 106 & Park before his second album came out the hosts asked him his favorite song on the album and he said this one because of what it talks about and how he raps as the drug talking to the addict. Genius songwriting
When u call i come to take the pain away.. thats real
Travis Guthrie sad but true we have a love fling u treating it like it’s just a thing .. what we have is more sacred than a vow or a ring
You still here love
I was princess. Not anymore. Clean off heroin since 2014 with methadone maintenance. Idc how you do it just do it. Now my 2 kids have thier mom
Ms Laura. I really respect ya honestly. My parents are recovering addicts. I was a addict myself. Its hard to get over but when your really tired u will stay off. Keep loving yourself and ya kids. They gonna be proud of your story once they are old enough to understand. Keep going one-day at a time.

I miss the old 50 this song is so true and on point its wild
Anybody with history of drugs man or woman know what this song is…one of 50s best song , underrated as fuck
Song definitely has a 05-06 Baltimore vibe💯
2022 Masterpiece, why nobody put him in the Top 5 🤦🏿 He is greatest of all time status
This is 2023 who is with me for the 50cent vibes....🎉
One of his most underatex songs ever
Revisiting this classic
This make me think about my sister. Helps understand a little that relationship she got with that boy.
That boi is no joke!

Most underrated song ever and especially coming from an addict of ale but relate to every single wo
This is real trap music! Hard asf 💯
This is the most CREATIVE TRACK in fifty’s whole catalogue I only understood the track after I got clean wow back in high school I used to jam to this and I never understood.
As much as I love Get Rich or Die Trying, The Massacre is my favorite 50 Cent project‼️
Genius!!!!!!! All hail 50. 💜
If u here in 2023 then u are a legend 💯
19 yrs ago today this album released! Pure nostalgia and I'm here for it for years to come!! Pure classic 🔥💯
The art of storytelling
Lmao it took me a minute to realize he was talking about Heroin 🤯 in 2005 i was 16 just singing the song until i realized what he was actually talking about LoL. Made the song that more fire 🔥🔥
Classic poetry
Pure art at its best
This guy is talent. This is real NY hip hop. Is second from Nas when it comes to story telling kind of hip hop
Rappers are very artistic but are afraid to cross lines. Imagine how artistic this song is and the Video😟😩.
Guys work with great directors
i was so disappointed 😭
I chalk it up to 50 being frugal. 50 put up his own money (not interscope) to make videos for the songs on the massacre that weren't singles and to rerelease the album with videos to every song. Most of the videos are boring, cheaply made and not interesting.
This is one of the deepest rap songs ever made
50 the best for me😢
Shout out to my Baltimore thugs .... DC repping Maryland is the shit
Already! 👌🏿❤
2019 still bumping it everyday faithfully
My 7 years old daughter loves this song
Ciao from Italy ☺️
This song about heroin
no other man can love u like i do
💎Gansta song 💯 Respekt 💎
First verse he is speaking about a pregnant women with the habit
Second verse tells her how many other people are users or addicts like her some of the most famous people matter fact even her sister on the low … this is the drug in her ear in her mind taking over her life as he speaks for the drug … genius work
THIS SONG IS GENIUS!!
Haven't listened to this in atleast a decade...too remember the lyrics. Lol crazy...all of his songs from the first three albums plus the grodt soundtrack!!
🤴🤴🤴🤴forever king
Music takes the pain away.Breathe music👍👌👏👂🧠
Thank for make this song 600
Thumbs up if your watching this in 2023
You deserved millions for that bra
Deserves more views in my opinion
Imo this one of those tracks that make me say The Massacre was his best album
2021 still in rotation
For this to be one of my fav 50 songs ever I was todays old when I found out he had a video for this smh
That beat tho😭💎💎💎
Oh shit!!! I'm just now catching this the real meaning of the song this went way over my head back then
This song was and is the Heron version of “I Gave You Power” by Nas.
ALL THESE YEARS and i only just found out at the end of 2022 that this song actually had a Music video to it. First time im ever seeing this video. this song DEEP AF!
I had no business listening to this at 8 years old 😂🔥🔥
This song is beautifully written.
Dance with the devil < Baltimore Love
50 was something else back in the day
I grew in Baltimore he ain’t lyin
Still bumpin ' this in 2020. 50 4eva!
