50 Cent's Intelligence Level

willw9 · #1 08-26-2007, 11:00 PM

A friend just recommended the new 50 Cent single, "I Get Money," to me. I'm pretty into rap and I like 50 a lot, so I downloaded. I listened to it and got to thinking, "Man, isn't there something else he can rap about?" I mean his other single from Curtis (new album) is entitled Straight to the Bank, and he obviously talks about making money in like every other song.

My friend replies: "Dude, what else can he rap about? If he took an IQ test, he'd be borderline retarded."

I completely disagree with these sentiments. The guy is worth roughly $100 million, and he obviously didn't come from a very affluent background.

So, is 50 just merely marketable, or is their actually some brains behind the bank?

I think your friend is very naive

Knowing what your doing does not correlate to your IQ. From what I have heard, most people in Mensa are complete real-life disasters because they are so socially inept.

Yeah, that's because Mensa self-selects for socially inept people out of the enormous pool of people who qualify

Although there was that study recently suggesting that as your IQ goes up, your chances of getting laid go down...

Really? I did not know that. Either way, my comment still stands. IQ and being successful in life don't necessarily correlate...IQ doesn't measure those things that can make someone very successful.

This is irrelevant. Is the man intelligent?

Dictionary.com:

Intelligent - having good understanding or a high mental capacity
