During a recent interview with Apple Music, 50 Cent revealed that "Many Men" is his least-favorite Get Rich or Die Tryin' song, shocking many, including his producer, Darrell "Six Figga Digga" Branch.
50 explained, "'Many Men' was my least favorite at that point because musically we was in the boom-bap phase. We was in that hard-hitting intensity, the energy on the records, and it’s the slowest song on Get Rich or Die Tryin’. And it’s now the tempo that the artists are rapping to. So the fast tempo, hard-hitting beats, that was that era, that time period. And the whole album had it."
Six Figga Digga spoke to TMZ about Fif's statement, and he disagreed, stating, "In my humble opinion, that was the point If you got a track like that, along with the other tracks that Dr. Dre did, then it’s not going to sound the same because I’m not Dr. Dre. Also, when it was done, it was a different frame of mind, a different way of thinking, so when you’re trying to blend those two things together, I can see that."
He then stated that "Blood Hound" is his least favorite song. Six Figga Digga explained, "The worst song on that album, I would probably say is that ‘Blood Hound’ song. To me, that’s the song, when you listen to it sonically, that’s the one that sticks out."
He added, "At that time, the Southern influence was still taking over. I mean, he signed Young Buck because of his influence coming from, you know, that era of Juvenile and all of that type of sound. 50 was the one that was bringing the New York sound back, but with that ‘Blood Hound’ song, I feel like that was kinda catering to that audience that was happening at the time."
