To understand the album, you have to understand the mythology of the man. Before he was "Fif," Curtis Jackson was a hustler. Spotted by Run-DMC's Jam Master Jay, he recorded an unreleased album titled Power of the Dollar . However, in May 2000, outside his grandmother's house, he was shot at close range—in the hand, legs, and face. The shooting left him with a permanently altered voice (a "hiss" when he speaks) and a dimple scar on his cheek. Columbia Records subsequently dropped him.
