AGENDA
**New Business**
● Celebrate Call Out Culture, talk about specific episodes that were benchmarks in visibility/audience building. The necessary change where rappers get to talk about music and make it, how that has affected their careers.
● Talk about 50 Cent’s 2003 album ``*Get Rich or Die Tryin’*``. Some people say it is a classic album, others say it has the best hooks in rap. Cutting through nostalgia and marketing...what is it really?
QUESTIONS
● **Did 50 Cent’s relationship with Eminem change Em for the worse?**
● **Did 50 Cent really devour and inhabit what Ja Rule was doing while mocking it?**
● **Did 50’s ascension have long term negative effects on NY Rap?**
● **When 50 went Diamond, he appeared to be in line to be THE GUY. It didn’t stick, why?**
● **What is the most embarrassing part of the 50 Cent experience(as a fan of rap)?**
