Music from and Inspired by the Motion Picture Get Rich or Die Tryin' is the soundtrack to the 2005 film Get Rich or Die Tryin'. In December 2005, the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) certified the album platinum.[6]
[edit] Singles
The first single from the soundtrack is "Hustler's Ambition". It is his personal favorite track from the album but it only peaked at #65 on Billboard Hot 100. The song is about 50 Cent's rough time growing up and how he had to hustle to keep up with life. The second single, "Window Shopper", peaked at number twenty on the Hot 100. In the chorus he says that Ja Rule, Jadakiss, Nas, and Fat Joe are Window Shoppers. The third single, "Best Friend", peaked number thirty-five on the Hot 100. It is used throughout the film as a way for Marcus (50 Cent's character) to lyrically flirt with Charlene. "I'll Whip Ya Head Boy" is the final single from the soundtrack.
