<P> After 50 Cent was discovered by rapper Eminem in 2002, he flew to Los Angeles where he was introduced to record producer Dr. Dre . "In da Club" was the first of seven tracks he recorded in five days with Dr. Dre. 50 Cent described the studio sessions, saying: </P> <P> Dre, he'll play dope beats...(He'll say),' These are the hits, 50 . So pick one of these and make a couple of singles or something .' The very first time he heard (me rap on)' In Da Club' he said,' Yo, I didn't think you was going to go there with it, but, you know, it works .' He was probably thinking of going in a different direction with that song . Then he expanded it into a hit record . </P> <P> The production was originally given to the hip hop group D12, but was passed on to 50 Cent because the group did not know how to approach the song . He recorded the track with only the drum beat present . Since much of the content on Get Rich or Die Tryin' was "dark", he wanted to write material that was "the exact opposite". He called the song a "celebration of life . Every day it's relevant all over' cause every day is someone's birthday ." </P> <P> "In da Club" was lauded by music critics . AllMusic described it as "a tailor - made mass - market good - time single". The Source called the song a "guaranteed party starter" with its "blaring horns, funky organs, guitar riffs and sparse hand claps". The BBC also wrote that the song is "a spectacular party anthem" that "highlights 50 Cent's ability to twist his words effortlessly". Entertainment Weekly noted that 50 Cent "boasts unashamedly of his career objectives and newly flush bank account" with lyrics such as "I'm feelin' focus, man, my money on my mind / Got a mil out the deal and I'm still on the grind ." </P>
