2003 - the year 50 Cent changed hip hop

The summer drew to a close with the introduction of my Little Buddy into the world, so I guess all is well that ends well. I am thinking coming into this and I specifically remember some HUGE releases that came out this year, much to the point where I am looking forward to writing this.

Eminem and Dre caught lightning in a bottle, packaged it for sale with a liberal smathering of pre-release hype/buzz and 50 Cent's Get Rich or Die Tryin' would go on to forever change how we do this hip hop shi
