Who is 50 cents?

Singer's R & 50 cents Alias: 50 cents Birthday: 1976-07-06 Birthplace: Queens, new york Gender: Male If R & amp；; B pays attention to melody, so HIP-HOP pays attention to "story" Whoever's story is tough enough and true enough can become the darling of the rap world. Who is the hottest rapper today? In terms of influence, Eminem, a rascal who made an autobiographical film and set up his own record company, of course offended every disc he made. But in terms of popularity, I'm afraid he can't compare with 50Cent, a pure hooligan who also comes from the street. In 2003, 50Cent was born with his "getting rich and dying". The cruelty, hardship, fear and oppression of the black life at the bottom described in the disc have slapped the increasingly mediocre hip-Hop world, and let all those who listen to hip-Hop or think they are playing Hip-Hop know what hip-hop really originated from black people is. Jianghu background, street thug, Curtis Jackson, formerly known as 50Cent, was born in Queens block, new york, with telephone number 1976. Like many black children born in slums, 50Cent has been dealing with the words robbery, rape, drug trafficking and prostitution since childhood. He has hardly met his real father, and his mother lives by selling drugs. He was found dead in the street at the age of 8, and the cause of death was unknown. From then on, 50Cent was raised by his grandparents. A few years later, 50Cent inherited his mother's business and sold cocaine on the street without telling his grandparents. When he was in high school, he got his first taste of going to jail-it is said that he hid cocaine in his sneakers in order not to let his grandmother find out that he was dealing drugs. One day, he wore the wrong shoes and was found by the school detector. Since then, his underground drug trafficking activities have turned to the public. He bluntly told his grandmother, "I am a drug dealer. "Although 50Cent's black income can reach $5,000 a day, he is depressed about this chaotic life. Then he found a way to escape this state-rap. 50Cent showed his talent at some street parties and made a little money. 1997, after the birth of his son Marquez, 50Cent began to take rap as his career and took it seriously. Newborn calf, the first Bole who was not afraid of power for 50Cent was a member of JamMasterJay, Run-D.M.C He gave 50Cent a rhythmic tape and then asked 50Cent to rap with the rhythm. Jay was deeply impressed by the performance of 50Cent, and then signed him into his JMJ company. Jay taught me what kind of lyrics will be popular; Jay taught me how to find creative inspiration; Jay also taught me how to make records. He put me on the right path. " 50Cent later recalled in an interview. JamMasterJay has always been a mentor and friend of 50Cent. Even after 50Cent left JMJ because of unsatisfactory development, Jay has been giving him advice and help. Then, under the introduction of Trackmasters, 50Cent signed a contract with the powerful Colombian record company 1999. After being locked in a recording studio in new york for two and a half weeks, 50Cent handed over 36 works, including PowerOfADollar, which was considered as a rap classic by Blaze magazine. In another song, "HowtoRob", 50Cent teased the big names of Jay-Z, Big Pun and Sticky Finger, which caused quite a stir among fans. But at the same time, he also made many enemies, such as Jalule, who fought several rounds of war of words with him. Survived and went underground. If 50Cent goes smoothly from now on, it's likely that rap is just another screaming little star. The next series of events not only made 50Cent's black background more dense, but also added magical color to his rap road. In May 2000, 50 cents was shot outside his grandmother's house. Nine 9mm bullets roared at him, one penetrated his face, one hit his hand, and the other seven hit his arm and leg respectively. Fortunately, he survived, only stayed in hospital for 13 days, but did rehabilitation at home for nearly 5 months. Among them, the bullet fired at his face peeled off a layer of gum and left a hole in his two rows of teeth, which changed his voice slightly. After the shooting incident, 50Cent became a hot potato, and Columbia quickly got rid of this troublesome person, and the upcoming "The Power of One Dollar" was also entered into the ice cave. 50 cents didn't collapse. He and a group of friends formed G-Unit and started the life of an underground band. With the help of new partner ShaMoneyXL, 50Cent released an independent record GuessWho 'sBack at the end of 200 1. Some of this album covers famous rap songs (such as RaphaelSaadiq's "BeHere" and Wu-TangClan's "Ya 'llBeenWarned"), some ridicule the rap stars at that time (mainly JaRule), and some 50Cent tells the story of being shot. These things spread quickly in the streets of new york, and Jay-Z even praised: "Fifty cents is the future. "
