Review of 50 Cent’s Reality Show


BOTTOM LINE Get beyond the hilarious fact that Curtis Jackson (and G-Unit loyalist Tony Yayo) are preaching the straight-and-narrow in the biz world, and you soon realize this savvy old pro must have something up his sleeve: Namely a concerted effort to sell his new book, “The 50th Law,” written with hip-hop Machiavelli Robert Greene (”The 48 Laws of Power”).

This show is about building Jackson’s empire, not starting theirs. Empire-building is swell for the builder, but its like watching paint dry for us.
