While 50 Cent‘s days of dodging (and, famously, failing to dodge) slugs are—knock on wood—behind him, the daily grind that he’s traded them in for comes with its own formidable set of stresses. On My Life, the official lead single off Curtis’ fifth studio album, he teams up with a few fellow industry heavyweights to give listeners an inkling of the challenges that await him each time he gets up in the morning. S1, Yeezy‘s partner on MBDTF lead single Power, puts his production stamp on the record, crafting a cinematic, driving backdrop to back Fitty’s mic therapy session. Mentor Eminem lends his off-the-wall flows to the record’s middle portion, and Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine ties it all together with a memorable hook. If you enjoyed this glimpse into 50 Cent’s quotidian hustle, then stay tuned; Street King Immortal still lacks a drop date, but we’ll keep you supplied with the latest news and tunes. In the meantime, you can look forward to seeing My Life performed on tonight’s episode of The Voice, in anticipation of its release to iTunes at midnight.

I spoke with S1 a few weeks ago, and he said he had a potential hit on his hands. This isn't "In Da Club," but that 50 is gone. This is as close to a hit record as we're going to get from the man.

50-Cent ripped this... I'm still a big fan and the flow is still tight. Eminem is still the king of the rap game (lyrically) and Adam Levine has a good voice on the chorus. This is a BANGER... May one day be a classic...

Great to hear 50 and Em on a new record! Dope beat, props to S1, he always has heat. Reminded me of the New God Flow/Mighty Healthy beat. This is better than New Day, though that was a solid record also.
Em ripped fif haha. 50 didn't even sound like he was trying, he doesn't have to I guess. To be honest, I can't stand Adam Levine's voice, but this is a solid jam, should secure 50 a release date before Christmas hopefully! |

Was expecting this to suck to be honest. The beat and Adam Levine's vocals were perfect. Not a big fan of 50, but this was alright. This would've been good with just Eminem.

Lol give it to Em to revive 50 for a second time....I even enjoyed 50 in this to be honest. But Em can mould words like no one else in the game, straight brilliance...

Dam 50 went so hard it that first verse. If this doesn't revive his career nothing will.

Coming in and seeing the line up associated with this track, my expectations were very high. Adam Levine served his purpose as a hook man and 50 absolutely killed his verse. Eminem did his thing as well. Refreshing to see these two on a track together considering they both have an enormous amount of potential.

I love adam levines voice! He added a nice different style to this track. Enimen's flow is great as well. I kind of wish he would mix it up a little but other than that hes good. 50 cent's part was dope

Nowhere near as epic as it was hyped up to be. The beat is pretty basic, Adam Levine's chorus is weak - and why the hell does Em keep yelling? It really ruins the song for me, and this comes from a huge Eminem fan. 50's verses were tight though. I'll give this one a couple more spins... (3/5).

It's OK. I didn't think I would like Adam on this but he does a good job with the chorus. 50 has a nice flow and Em's verse is good but I hate that yell/growl flow. His verse was apparently recorded 2 years ago when he was doing that a lot on Recovery. He kinda throws the song off a little.

Im loving this from 50 Cent. This is a totally different sound from anything I have ever heard from him. Adam Levine sounds great on the hook with his soulful vocals. Eminem had the best verse on the song of course. Eminem= best rapper alive.

Fifty brings out good flow and lyrics, but I want him on beats like Raid (with Pusha-T) where he sounds more natural.

I think those who are hating on 50 need to take a listen to his new mixtape '5 (Murder By Numbers)'. He is making a great case for his resurgence. Great track with Eminem and Adam Levine.

Always been a fan of 50 Cent and he didn't let down on this track. Eminem was lyrically amazing as usual and S1 did an awesome job on production on this. No wonder this is top of the rap chart.

50 and Em put in solid work as they always do when together on a track, but I didn't like the chorus and 50 and Em need a hard beat to go in on. I understand the angle 50 is playing here though.

Eminem's verse was great, and 50's was good after Em's. Hook is not that great.
