Today marks the 10th anniversary of 50 Cent's "Get Rich or Die Tryin'." And say what you will about the guy's career now, but that album was brilliant. The rare debut album that lived up to its considerable hype, it spawned one all-time classic single ("In da Club"), solidified Dr. Dre's rep as rap's greatest tastemaker, and notched the rare "1 million albums sold for every time the rapper has been shot" statistical achievement. Yep. Nine million albums sold for nine gunshots received. Let's see Mac Miller do that.
