Информация о артисте
Кёртис Дже́ймс Дже́ксон III (родился 6 июля 1976), больше известный под своим сценическим псевдонимом 50 Cent — американский рэпер. Известность пришла к нему с выпуском альбомов Get Rich or Die Tryin' (англ. Разбогатей или Сдохни) и The Massacre (англ. Резня). 50 Cent добился мультиплатинового успеха с обоими альбомами, продав более 21 миллиона копий по всему миру.
Рождённый в районе Южная Ямайка, Куинс в Нью-Йорке, 50 Cent начал торговать наркотиками в возрасте двенадцати лет во время крэк-эпидемии 1980-х. После того, как он бросает торговлю наркотиками, чтобы посвятить себя карьере рэпера, в него стреляют 9 раз в 2000 году. После выхода его микстэйпа Guess Who's Back?, 50 Cent’a замечает Eminem и подписывает с ним контракт в Interscope Records. С помощью Эминема и Dr. Dre, которые продюсировали его первый главный коммерческий успех, он становится одним из самых продаваемых рэперов во всём мире. В 2003 он основывает лейбл G-Unit Records, который подписывал контракты с такими артистами, как Young Buck, Lloyd Banks и Tony Yayo. 50 Cent имел много стычек с другими рэперами, включая Ja Rule, Game и Fat Joe.
50 Cent также развивался в актёрской карьере. Наиболее заметные роли — в фильмах «Разбогатей или умри» и «Дом храбрости».

Curtis James Jackson III (born July 6, 1975 in South Jamaica, Queens, New York), better known by his stage name 50 Cent, is a Grammy award nominated rapper, actor, singer, entrepreneur, author and founder of the hip hop group and label G-Unit.
After leaving drug dealing to pursue a rap career, he released his debut album Guess Who's Back Again in 2002. He was discovered by Eminem and Dr. Dre and then signed to Interscope Records. He has since released Get Rich or Die Tryin' (2003), The Massacre (2006), Curtis (2007) and Before I Self Destruct (2009).
50 Cent has engaged in feuds with other rappers including Jay-Z, Ja Rule, The Game, Cam'ron, Fat Joe, and Rick Ross. He has also pursued an acting career, appearing in the semi-autobiographical film Get Rich or Die Tryin' in 2005, the Iraq War film Home of the Brave in 2006, and Righteous Kill in 2008. 50 Cent is one of the richest hip-hop performers, having a net worth estimated at US $440 million in 2008.
Before 50 Cent ever inked a major deal, he built up a substantial fan base in New York through underground mixtapes. 50 Cent met up with Jam Master Jay of Run-DMC and was signed to his label to write all of Jay’s music. After he’d left JMJ, he signed to Columbia Records in 1996. On this label, he released Power of the Dollar, and the singles How to Rob and Ghetto Qua Ran. Columbia Records released him from the label after being shot on May 24th, 2000.
Around this time, Eminem had heard one of 50 Cent’s demo tapes and expressed a huge interest in him on MTV, as did Dr. Dre. Shortly after this, 50 Cent officially signed to Interscope Records. He was the first rapper to sign to the joint label owned by Dr. Dre and [artistEminem[/artist]. The first song he released on this record was entitled Wanksta and was featured on the 8 Mile soundtrack.
In its first week of release, his debut ”Get Rich Or Die Tryin’” sold 872,000 units - easily reaching Gold status. Within the second week it went Platinum (1 mil) and on April 12th, 2004 the RIAA certified it six times Platinum.
In 2005 he followed the success of his album Get Rich or Die Tryin’ with a new release - The Massacre (originally called St. Valentines Day Massacre until the release date was pushed back). The first single released off this, Disco Inferno, was a huge hit - he followed this hit up by the release of Candy Shop and then again with Just a Lil Bit.
In 2003 Interscope Records allowed 50 Cent to have his own label - G-Unit Records. He first signed Lloyd Banks, Tony Yayo and Young Buck as the established members of G-Unit Records. In 2004, Dr. Dre and 50 Cent had signed The Game under a joint venture.
