In June 2014, 50 Cent released his fifth studio album, Animal Ambition. The album features two singles: the international hit " Baby by Me", which peaked at number twenty-eight in the US, and " Do You Think About Me". The album charted at number five on the Billboard 200 and peaked in the top twenty of several album charts worldwide. Music critics described the album as a return to the darker, more intense style of music that 50 Cent exhibited on many of his early mixtapes. In 2009, he released his fourth studio album, Before I Self Destruct. Five singles were released from the album, including international hit " Ayo Technology" and Billboard hits " Straight to the Bank", " Amusement Park", " I Get Money" and " I'll Still Kill". In 2007, 50 Cent's third studio album, Curtis, debuted at number two on the Billboard 200, behind Kanye West's album Graduation, after a much-hyped sales competition between the albums.
