What is 50 doing??

Okay 50….when you receive a busload of essays, can you please post a few?

I’m dying to see the writing skills of these “baby mommas”. Most times they have dialect like trying to comprehend Charles Barkley’s rants.

Do you think Bill Gates would have this type of contest??

@ Kami all day

I am a single mother and I would write the most articulate letter he’s ever read…But I’d BET my bottom dollar I wouldnt be considered a winner…lol nothing interesting about being articulate…its the ghetto hood rattish type sh!t that gets all the recognition…GOTTA LOVE THE USA!!!!!

its the ghetto hood rattish type Shhhh!t that gets

shut up!you know you applied!

I think it’s a different idea what single or married mother wouldn’t want 10,000 and all you have to do is write an article for your chances to win….let me go back to the drawing board!

I guess that’s one way to go about filling your stable.

DAMAGE CONTROL

Bugsy u should start wit ur baby mama

ROTFLMAO@Nique!

ha! that’s some funny ish.

Why doesnt he give money to the black women who didnt get knocked up but instead used birth control? They are the responsible ones.

SO CAN I GET THE ADDRESS OR EMAIL ADDRESS TO WHERE I SHOULD SEND MY ESSAY. SMILE

ALL THE SINGLE MOTHERS! (all the single mothers) ALL THE SINGLE MOTHERS! (all the single mothers) ALL THE SINGLE MOTHERS! (all the single mothers) ALL THE SINGLE MOTHERS NOW PUT YOUR HANDS UP!

@Elektrik,

Not “PUT YO HANDS UP” but “PUT YO HANDS OUT”.

@ Kigali
Yea lol I guess you’re right.
Biggups to all the hard working single mothers though.

Is it not a reality that their is no shortage of single moms who could use help because irresponsable baby daddies refuse to take care of their offspring. Good for 50! Even though $10,000 isn’t life changing money, it could do some positive things for someone who is struggling to raise their kidds on their own. All though I’m sure that there will be some funny essays turned in

Big up to all the hard working married mothers.

Are you kidding me? Why does the “baby momma” gotta be a ghetto hoodrat? I have a child, I’m 20 years old and far from a hoodrat. Please stop degrading your fellow sisters, ok?

@Openminded VA thank you for stating that!

*DEAD @ NIQUE*

I think it is nice of him to do that, however he should split the 30k so their would be more winners? at least 10 cash prizes? 3k may not be alot to some but x-mas& thanksgiving is right around the corner! And that would help alot! either that or put more money up!!

LMAO @ Nique!!

lmfao I still cant get over at @nique’s comment/letter!

lmfao omg I had to scroll up and read that s*** again

@ least he cares enough to do something. some women are single mothers 4 different reasons, such as the dad being deceased. please think before you speak down on them.

i am a single parent, and i wud mos deffinately write up an essay, but knowin them they gon wana turn it into a reality show or sumthin.. *thinking*

I think the ones on here dowing single mothers are not strong enough to be a single mother, would never understand what a single mother endures and could never appreciate how beautiful and strong a loving single mother is…but I digress run me that damn address I’m a writer also-f_k ya heard on the ghetto essays-so sad narrow-mindness is a plague!

Shout out to ALL single mother’s raising their children and finishing school! I’m not ghetto by a long shot, so please feed that mess to them chicken heads, that are not responsible parents. Plus, their are married people that are NOT responsible parents and do NOT TAKE CARE OF HOME OR THEIR CHILDREN! I am happy to say I have full time J.O.B. AND ALMOST FINISHED WITH MY MASTERS AND A FULL TIME MOTHER TO MY CHILDREN, WHICH I SHALL ADD (HONOR ROLL STUDENT)!

@chocolatebeauty

a single mother contest though? he couldve at least did a “college schloarship contest”…. just like some said above “Do you think Bill Gates would have this type of contest??”…it seems ghetto to me..I would LOVE to read some of the letters though

Are you serious that’s like $30.00 to 50 SMDH!!!

What does Bill Gates have to do with 50??? Rolls Eyes!

amen Choco

@Choco,

Saying people arent strong enough to be a single mother is like saying someone isnt strong enough to be handicapped. Perhaps we dont want to be single mothers because we know all the pathologies that are associated with it.

Perhaps we dont want to be a single mother because we want our kids to have both their parents raising them. Who knew that was a weakness.

I dont want to be a single mother, I dont want to be in a wheel chair.

@Single Mom,

Married life is a lot better than being a single mother. Didnt you know that married mothers have on average more money than single mothers? Didnt you know that single mothers are more likely to be in poverty than married mothers?

I dont understand why you females are so stupid.

@Kigali
Shut up you know I do not encourage your ignorance-Poof B Gone – I don’t even read your rants I just see my name and keep scrolling down to read other comments, for future reference-spend your energy on time well spent…

Oh and everyone else on here that Kigali believes she is dishing Knowledge to simply ignore It and It will soon go away…Geesh at the stupid remarks It makes- I repeat IGNORE IT, IGNORE IT, IGNORE IT!

50 cent condones single mothers. why u think he wrote that song “have a baby by me” which is PURE mess. Granted some single mothers have no choice but to be when the father high tails it on their kids. BUT I have to say that ALL Of this single parent crap would end if WE as black women make BETTER choices no SMARTER choices in the men we choose. Stop laying down with these men with mutiple babies. Find a man with GOALS in his life (not “rapper” goals). Women have to be smarter period. You can’t holler about dead beat dads when you knew D A M N well this man had ALL these kids before he met you. So I dont know if I agree with this contest. We need to be promoting two parent households. BUT things will neever changes because its just an ending cycle of “baby daddies” and “baby mommas” SMH

For those getting offended at the reactions of some posters, if you’re not the “ghetto hoodrat mess” that this mockery of a contest is attracting, then this does NOT apply to you. Plain and simple.
If you are a single mother on the grind taking care of your kids, then you wouldn’t need 50′s money since you can provide for yourself and your family right?

@ HELLO WORLD

im confused?? y does it seem ghetto? every single parent (mother) is not a welfare receivn, ebt card havn, kids always wit they granny, clubin, mall hoppin, type of mother? like i jus dnt undrstnd y it seems “ghetto” wats ghetto abt givn out to sum1 or grp of pple that are in need? mayb this is tha 1st of many contest that he prolly will offer??

@The Official Mrs. Carter:

Oh, I’m sure you wouldnt win either! He would probably read your letter and see all these Webster-ridden words and used the correct way at that?!?! Girl, you dont have a chance! LOL

I guess thats a good thing, right?

@Nique:

YOU ARE SO D_A_M_N silly!!!!! *laughing*

Ah, MAN! That was RIGHT on the nose too. Sounds like something he’d look at and say..”this girl right here is a winner”.

I’m mad you put Deer!!! Hahahahaha…..I am ROLLIN’ at my desk right now!!

@EleKtrik EccEntriK (RIP Shaniyah Davis, Innocence Lost)

__________________________________________________

You pretty much wrote what Ive been trying to say for an hour now but got caught up at work.LOL

Thanks!!!

Again if you are dumb enough to think no one could use an extra $10,000 for a writing an essay then this does not apply to you…the easiest legal money a woman can make and yall talkn ish-perhaps it’s becuz you are unable to enter-FK OFF!

@3LuvMe*:

Well, it seems like it.

When I go to Wal-Mart, I dont expect the cashier to ask if I am using an EBT card. When has that question become mandatory?

I thought, cash, or credit was the question.

Oh well.

@Choco:

Actually, I’m happy that I CAN’T enter!!!!!

I wonder if he’ll have a contest for “women who are married mothers”.

Just because he has created all these single mothers out here by him being a sorry a$$ man (not taking care of his own)doesnt mean that we are going to respect him more just because he “thinks” he is doing a service to single women.

Tell these “single” mothers to write an essay to get into college. THAT way, they can actually make MORE than $10,000….a year at that!!

But here I am being stereotypical. Not all single mothers are non-educated, ghetto birds. That last sentence was for the ones that are though.

@Kami
Operative word Walmart-Rolls Eye see the irony in your statement???

@Kami
Allow me to further educate you cuz you are sounding real stuck-A single mother can put herself thru school, pay her bills, and raise her kids…the type of females you know or hang with may be the one going to Walmart with You to use their EBT card not all….you are supposed to be a college student or whatev don’t quote me becuz I haven’t been payn that much attention to but yet you still think inside the box! Whatev Chick- For real!

LOL @ KAMI!! i kno rite..

It is really sad, like i b kinda like hatin, 4real, here i am payn market rate rent and i liv in cali so u kno that 1mil rite thr!! lol, i hav 3 kids, i work full time, a pretty good secure job, but i still struggle, but u have yo average “baby momma” that got they section 8, they dnt wrk so they rent is zero, they got they ebt card so no cash u gotta pay for food, u get transportation for free each month, i swear its a conspiracy.. wer is ma come up??

@Kami
You are a bird for making that more than $10,000 a year in fact you are a silly bird-to bad you don’t know any real women with a real life….

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE LET 3LUVME* KNOW THAT THIS IS NOT A TEXT MESSSAGE FORUM…

@3LuvMe*

I said that it seems ghetto because it is(IMO)! Out of all the contests, he couldve came up with something diffrent! Like I said earlier..why not do a schloarship contest? or a schloarship contest for women that are in school etc?! I HOPE THAT THEIR ARE CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS..meaning every single mother shouldnt be eligible to apply…background checks please!

gd for those that are married that means u r in a dual income household, and u prolly dnt hav tha struggle that mos single parent homes have, hence tha fact that thats prolly y this contest is bein offered?? to help those SINGLE INCOME homes out for tha holidays..

bill gates not from the hood, 50 is he knows what is like being raised by a single mother, the man doing something postive why do people hate on things like that i don’t understand

@Choco:

Umm….was THAT a diss??

*laughing*

Boo-boo, I make MORE than $10,000 a year! Actually, my 401k sits at about what 50 is giving away for free.

You silly rabbit!

Tricks are for kids!

@GC
The people who can not see the positive are people who have not yet evolved in life therefore are very naive when it comes to seeing the good as opposed the bad-if all one can do is knock someone or something they are truly lacking in character and self-esteem, and let me not forget strength! It’s easy to talk about it but to do something about is beyond their reach! Silly rabbits…

@Nique:

*sighing*

I guess I gotta get up in someones a$$!

Actually, little girls like this make time FLY by at work!

I hope she keeps ‘em coming…LOL

@Kami
For me it was a fact-You big dummy I’m certain a lot of people make more than 10,000 a year that’s why your comment was so lame-and believe when I called the likes of you silly rabbit please understand we posted almost at the same time and I just read you wee little comment-your the kid…

@Kami
I’m more woman than you could ever be you see hon I experience the blessing of childbirth-I can tell you have not-you get in my ass-cold day in hell TRICK!

I just don’t understand the polarity. As a community it makes no sense to ostracize or stereotype and entire group of women. While Single Parent homes are not what we should be striving towards, it is a large portion of our community and the percentage of out of wedlock births is increasing at alarming rates. The response should not simply just be “keep yo legs shut” [sic] because clearly that is not working, and is based on several assumptions about the character of the women. There should be an honest initiative at discouraging single parent homes. I don’t think this contest is necessarily ghetto as I’m certain any parent could use some extra money especially around the holidays. I would hope that in conjunction with the publicity around such a contest there would a stronger push towards programs that encourage, support and teach men how to be fathers.

@Hello World:

Makes sense.

I think one of the requirements is that you should ALREADY be working. No hand-outs!

It’s to help, not to provide wholeheartedly.

@Kami
At least we agree on one thing this banter back and forth makes my afternoon speed by – so tag your it!

@Choco:

Only little girls have to resort to name-calling.

Guess your little intellect ran out.

And you’re right.

I have not experienced child birth because I am waiting for a husband first. I do not want kids without a foundation set. Period.

But I’m done talking to you.

And reading your errant posts.

Grow up and read a dictionary.

@kingsmomma:

Good post!

You know how you are around kids for so long and you feel like you need some grown-up time??

Oddly enough, this is how I am feeling and your post was that “grown-up” company.

*sighing*

Whatta relief to be able to understand what someone writes.

Nice post!

THATS NICE 50.

@Nique
I’m not implying anything I see you were really good at writing ebonics so that right there spoke volumes…Im PMSng so I’m in my feelings and now what I still stand behind every post I made-

@Nique
Disregard my comment to you I thought you were Electrik-
At Electrik read my comment to Nique…

@Nique, Kami and Electrik
Honestly we could go on all day with this (until I get off work) I just wonder if all three of you can keep up…regardless of typos ; )

@Kami thanx

@Choco:

*laughing*

Pc’s are GREAT, arent they?

You can be ANYTHING you want to on here! A doctor making $120,000 a year if you wanted to!

Listen, I am NOT here to run down a list of credentials because you would be embarassed. Dont get it twisted.

But I’m glad for you that you make good money per hour doing what you do. Reciprocity is great!

And please underline, point out, highlight the part where I said being married equals success.

*jeopardy music*

Just another scam and an attempt to correct what he knows was a mistake by using the kid. I have to see how this all plays out……

@Kami
I know who I am don’t need PC to enforce that-not feeling your point cuz never once on here have I posed to be something I’m not and yeah I do make a lot of money an hour typing this is my outlet and I don’t have to be perfect and without error in this piece!

@Choco:

Oh…I getz energizing bunny on females like you.

You are NO threat, sweetpea.

And you have yet to make me stop and think about much of anything.

You just keep ranting and raving.

Ever think about public relations?

@Kami
No not public relations but motivational speaking what are your alternatives as opposed to pretending to be above everyone else???

@Eletrik
Boo is you want to think you originated silly rabbit far be it from me to discourage and Yes PMS is a B_TCH but then I can be one too!

Okay..you have 30 minutes to rant.

GO!

@Choco

Oh Lawd1 You’re confusing me.LOL

*running to get tea/midol and a heating pad for your PMS SYMPTOMS*

@Choco:

Definitely not above anyone else. Maybe you feel like that….because I am???

Nique..do you feel that way? What about you Eletrik? Do I act like I’m above everyone else?

Well, since you asked, I am on my way to getting my degree in court reporting. Dont like Healthcare! Underwriting is a b***h!

@Kami
You don’t get it do I’m luring you into my world so I can mess with you… all three of you really-you all are play toys for me…like I said tag your it!

@ Choco
I didn’t invent silly rabbit? OMG! This changes everything! LMAO
You’re fun. You wanna be BFF’s?

@Kami
Well proud to hear a sister is handling hers-see how easy it is for me to see the positive-TAKE NOTE!

@Electrik
Yep cuz as much as we all agree to disagree I see a lot of similarities-after today all this going back and forth will be passee and tomorrow is a new day!

Kami girl I’m tickled f*ckin pink!
And I thought my off day was going to be boring! YAY!
Choco Kami Nique and Elektrik BFF’s! LMAO

When u gotta bring in ppls family when the beef is supposed to aim at them…….your desperate.

Get rich or die tryine….pshhh! 50 Got Rich And Stopped TRYIN

*you’re

@Kami

I dont think you’re that way. If I did, you know I wouldve been the first to give you the cold shoulder.LOL. You good honey…I know you werent even worried about what anyone else thought!

@EleKtrik EccEntriK (RIP Shaniyah Davis, Innocence Lost)

LOL! Thanks for letting 3LUVEME* know but I guess she didnt get the message-I couldnt understand her last post to save my life.

Man all i wanted was a dang fee waiver

I don’t get why anyone has a problem with this?!
He wants single mothers to write why they or someone else should be nominated to win some money, he’s NOT saying bend over and I’ll make it rain on you!
Give the man some credit!

@Ya’ll (you know who you are):

*laughing*

Ya’ll are some crazy b*tches! And I mean that in a good way. No love lost over here…..now see? Its 3:40! And I leave at 4pm!

Awesome job ladies! And Choco…you didnt lure me….I’ve been here since 2:28pm to be exact.

I chose to fall victim to this mess! But it was fun just the same!

Have a good one guys! I’m starting to pack it up!

Allright Ladies, Nique, Kami and Electrik I’m going to a new post-Electrik gets the most cool points for today-she made me laugh! See you all next time I feel better and thanks for not taking my PMS rants to serious and honestly I hope we all learned something from one another…
Nothin but peace and love on the real!

@Kami

LOL! You and I both. 4pm is quitin time. Im packing up my things now. I’ll talk to you all 2morrow sweeties!

NIGHT!

@ Y’all lol
HIGH FIVES AND A.S.S. PATS ALL AROUND!
We should make our own debate team and win money that way! LMFAO!

Wow you people are the real ghetto ignorant ones. He’s trying to do something positive and help some single mothers out and you all still find something negative to say? Black people at their finest. Just like racism is encoded in white peoples DNA, hating is the same for blacks.

awwwww I love this…go 50!

lololol!

@Bill

Enkogkneegrow doesnt need to hand out his hard earned money to you beggars. Single mothers need to stop begging, they need to stop acting as if anyone owes her anything. You laid that with that loser, thats your problem.

@ Kigali – So I guess the only single mothers you know are lazy and ignorant. Because I know plenty of hardworking single mothers who never ask for anything not even childsupport in some cases. But if someone was running a contest and giving away free checks to haters and idiots I am sure you and Mr. Know it all Enkogkneegrow would be the first two hippocrites in line.

smh at reading some of these neg. comments. ignorance is so contagious.

@cocoa49

You’re so right. He’s helping some single mothers but the father of the kids aren’t doing jack.

LOVE 50/CURTIS BUT HIS NEW ALBUM ONLY DOING 150-160K WOW HE USE SELL DAMN NEAR 1MIL WOW TIMES HAVE CHANGED FOR HIM,ITS GOOD HE STILL GOT OUTSIDE BUSINESS.

GOOD FOR YOU 50! GOOD FOR YOU. Now does anyone know if he has a scholarship fund being offered? And if so, please post the info.

Thank you

I feel this would benefit many mothers & children. However, in reading one of comments in particular she mentioned the women that used birth control should be rewarded… I agree if the mother continues to have more children and making bad choices of the fathers – while she remains in the current state and is not moving forward. BUT for those like myself that yes, have made a mistake and maybe more than one but as a result has obtained an education (having both a Master’s & a Bachelor’s degree) my children have been my motivation… & I am returning to school for my JD. My motto is yes I have made my bed hard & I will lay in only a comfortable bed not just a warm one. So for the single mother’s it is possible you can do it & let your children be your motivation to be successful and show them that despite a bad choice or decision a good thing can always blossom out of a bad situation.

It amazes me the level of ignorance on these blogs. Did it ever occur to some of you that the “single women” title can mean different things?

Widowed (husband died)
Divorced (husband no longer)
Married (husband abandoned – abused – committed adultry)
Married (husband is in jail – what ever the reason)
Married (HUSBAND IS IN THE MILITARY/CIA – NOT AVAILABLE)
Single (never married)

Grow up and stop being so judgemental!

That’s a good look 50! I would like to start a foundation that helps single mother’s that want to get out of a sh!ty economic situation by paying for them to earn a vocation and pay for their housing while they go to school as well!

And co-sign Let’s be good to each other’s comment above.

If Yall Dumb Broads aint married Make a nigg put on a rubber!!I dont feel sorry for yall.. Go to college first make your money Get a degree a career then worry about having babies…Stupid a$$e$

@Single Mom,

Married life is a lot better than being a single mother. Didnt you know that married mothers have on average more money than single mothers? Didnt you know that single mothers are more likely to be in poverty than married mothers?

I dont understand why you females are so stupid.——————————————————
Look, I make over 80 thousand a year and trust me “I CHOOSE NOT TO BE MARRIED”. I’m not desperate to be married, maybe one day. I’m to focused on my career and my child future. So, miss me with that HAPPILY EVER AFTER B.S.YOUR SPEWING. I’m MUCH HAPPIER without a man, BELIEVE THAT SWEETIE! QUIT STEREOTYPING

Why can’t we just big up all mothers?

So instead of applauding the single mothers who aren’t relying on the government to feed and clothe their children, we should continue to bash them?

How many non-mothers would right now be in the same shoes as some of the women they are bashing if it had not been for Roe V.Wade?

What’s done is done. There is no use in crying over spilled milk, but the single mothers who are taking care of their responsibilities should not further be antagonized.

@ reazon, the idea of tending to the “lost ones” is not a new idea
“What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if he has lost one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go after the one which is lost, until he finds it? And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing. And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, `Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost.”

That’s a very good thing that 50′s doing.

50 Cent is a wonderful person. I would like to commend him on being a good person.

so umm… 50 cent decides to give away money to families in need and people have the nerve to turn it into something negative. I mean come on… it’s MOTHERS. You all are acting like he’s having a contest for drug dealers. What you’re failing to realize is that there are CHILDREN who will benefit as well. It’s funny that the main ones who speak negativity about it have like 30 posts on here. Who looks like the ghetto chicken heads??? The “young ladies” (trying to be polite) who have nothing better to do than sit around writing 37 posts bashing single mothers or the single mothers who are on their grind and probally too busy to entertain this silliness? hmmm…

Hi! I am a single mother of two and glad to know someone cares about us single mothers out here.But a real women as my self will continue to do it on their own.It not bout tha money.Its about tha luv they need,the time spent. Wher i am from money cant buy luv.I think GOD everyday for letting me be tha strong woman i am to take care oy my kids cause wit out GOD n MY father i would have never made it through these hard times.But thanks 50 for you think for us single,indepent women who dont even as for child suport.
