No Mercy, No Fear is the second mixtape by hip hop group G-Unit, released on August 1, 2002.

[2] Originally released independently as a free mixtape,[3] it was re-released in 2006 by BCD Music Group.

[1] No Mercy, No Fear was recorded after the group's de facto leader, 50 Cent, had signed a $1 million deal with Aftermath Entertainment and Shady Records following the release of his 2002 compilation album Guess Who's Back?.

Described by Billboard magazine as a classic,[7] No Mercy, No Fear was released during 50 Cent's and G-Unit's 2002 mixtape run,[8] in anticipation of his debut album.

[11] By rapping over instrumentals from other artists and then releasing it for free, with No Mercy, No Fear and the other contemporary releases, 50 Cent revolutionized hip hop mixtapes,[12] creating a blueprint for later artists, such as Lil Wayne, Young Jeezy, and Drake.
