Fourteen years ago a hurricane by the name of 50 Cent came and blew the doors off of the rap game with the release of his debut album titled "Get Rich or Die Tryin."
The album was instantly praised as a classic. It was both street certified and loved by suburban hip hop fans, who wanted to know what the hood felt like without actually having to go there.
On December 9, 2003, "Get Rich or Die Tryin" was certified 6x platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).
To date it has sold over 14 million copies worldwide. Salute to 50 for making one of the best albums in hip hop history.
