Hip hop

G-Unit is a Hip hop act. Their sound grew out of The Game, Uncle Murda, DJ Khalil, 50 Cent and Tony Yayo. Those roots explain a lot about how G-Unit arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Lloyd Banks, 50 Cent, Tony Yayo, Young Buck and The Game, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Laylow, Joe, Pi'erre Bourne, Russ and Bliss n Eso, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 39 connections around G-Unit, reaching back through The Game and forward to Laylow.
