After viewing 50 Cent's "The New Breed," one can come to the conclusion that rappers are just as egotistical, sexual and violent as they've always been. While the DVD does offer two of 50's hottest videos, "In Da Club" and "Wanksta," the rest of the DVD is just an open forum for 50 and his crew, the G-Unit, to say whatever they want. Has 50 even reached the star status of having his own DVD yet? Some would say yes, with 50's style drawing frequent comparisons to the late 2Pac. But "The New Breed" shows he's really no different than any other rapper. \nThe DVD plays his biggest hit "In Da Club" almost repeatedly. We see the video, the making of the video, the song performed live and once again the song performed in the studio. There is certainly a taste of the G-Unit offered up. G-Unit member Lloyd Banks is kind enough to share how many "hoes he's banged" and the rest of the crew constantly talks about the number of "bitches" they've been with. We see rappers living in their alternate realms they call lifestyles every day on MTV and BET. No need to pay for this DVD unless you seriously think 50's the next 2Pac.
Barely worth 50 cents
