"50 just mentioned that "War Angels LP" will be his first LP of 2009, release date is this Tuesday. He will also having some more up coming LP's (possibly). Can someone edit this in and make a wiki page on this new LP. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.189.233.85 (talk) 01:04, 13 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] recent?

"he recently squashed his beef with jadakiss". that's terrific. um.....when is "recently"? that statement needs a DATE. "recently" is not a time. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wellcraft11 (talk • contribs) 15:36, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

[edit] House burning down incident

[edit] 50 Cent cleared of burning down his own house?

I have heard from a few sources 50 Cent was cleared of blowing up his own house (http://www.miley5.net/content/index.php?action=show&id=9), umm i think I also heard it on MTV or something. Is this true?? There are some conflicting articles, I think Reuters said that some lower-end police officer said he was still being "investigated"???50centgunit (talk) 23:32, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

[edit] House burning incident now included

Should this be included, its not often someones house burns own. We can get sources together if its worthy of adding to his private life section. --— Realist² (Come Speak To Me) 02:40, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

Include this incident. It is bizzare that it is not there. Here's text from CNN. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.146.224.18 (talk) 02:17, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

Text removed: available at 'Suspicious' fire destroys rapper 50 Cent's home

Until the full story is known its best to leave it, nothing is certain at the moment. — Realist² (Come Speak To Me) 18:49, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

The edit adding the lawsuit/house burning down is so ungrammatical as to not make any sense at all. Wistar (talk) 20:40, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Court ruling

I added this NY court ruling: New York State Supreme Court Justice Carol Edmead on June 11, 2008 ruled that “50 Cent cannot sell his Dix Hills, Long Island $ 2.4 million property, must deposit fire insurance proceeds into a trust account pendente lite, and that, Shaniqua Tompkins pay him May $ 4,500 rent.” Tompkins sued 50 Cent for half of his estate.Reuters, New York judge bars 50 Cent from selling propertynytimes.com, 50 Cent Can't Sell Long Island Home--Florentino floro (talk) 10:00, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Years active

50 cent started rapping professionally since 2000! possibly 2001, but not 1999! he was featured in the Onyx song "React" from their 1998 album Shut Em Down! so please stop changing it!-SCB '92 (talk) 08:54, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Young Buck

Young Buck was the best rapper in the whole group.Banks and Yayo did not bring success like Buck did.--Piazzajordan2 (Talk.) (Hows my editing?) 01:49, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, i added the section of 50 cent having a rift between him and young buck on the controversy section yesterday-SCB '92 (talk) 12:12, 13 July 2008 (UTC)

It's not really "beef" when 50 Cent refuses to respond. Also, if you are going to add information please wikify the references. Thanks. --¤ The-G-Unit-฿oss ¤ 22:10, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

I did this time, but you deleted it again, why?-SCB '92 (talk) 12:26, 18 July 2008 (UTC)

Im not sure the waqar It's kinda recentism. It's big news at the moment (well it was), but will it be in a few years or months? Also, the situation isn't really controversy, if you see the new 50 Cent interview on Thisis50.com, he addresses the situation saying "it's a shame" and leaves it at that. If you insist on adding it, make sure you format references as described in WP:REF. --¤ The-G-Unit-฿oss ¤ 13:09, 18 July 2008 (UTC)

more research needs to be done on the 50 cent shooting. 50 cent was only hit with 3 bullets. His hand, his arm and his mouth. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.70.40.238 (talk) 06:40, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

No, he was shot nine times. Don't you get it? Read the article! ¡Ariba! -- MISTER ALCOHOL ^{T C} 06:23, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

Uhm, NO. He was shot AT nine times. If he were, HE WOULD BE DEAD. Don't you get it? Read AKON'S ARTICtalk:71.210.126.225|talk) 05:43, 1 April 2009 (UTC)

Someone needs to update the article to say 3 instead of 9 times.

_______________________________________________________ —Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.166.218.69 (talk) 20:26, 11 May 2009 (UTC)

That report is an obvious fake. The report is only half there and is riddled with spelling mistakes. There is no information on his height, weight, eye color, etc.. Even The date of the report looks as if it has been doctored. The report states that "Three shots hit the victim on the right" Then the report finishes but he has a scar on the left side of his face. It's the hospital report that should be checked out not the police report as the people at the hospital are the ones who remove the bullets. He was shot 9 times not 3. If you had of read the comments on the page you would have picked up that it was a fake. Lochie mac4 (talk) 04:35, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Controversy with Kanye West album sales

Shouldn't this page contain some discussion of the challenge 50 issued to Kanye? I find it surprising there is no mention of his rescinded claim that he would quit the business/his solo career if Kanye's album outsold his. Just seems like something worth having a blurb about. Anyone else think so? Nvalley (talk) 10:34, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit] 50 Cent beef with NY rappers

50 Cent has a long running fued with members of the Wu Tang Clan, following his comments directed towards them in his single 'How to Rob'. Subsequently numerous disses were directed towards 50 on Ghostface's album, 'Supreme Clientele'. The fued would resurge after Tony Yayo made comments about Ghostface using a ghostwriter which led to insults directed towards G Unit by both U God and Ghostface. GZA released a diss track towards 50 entitled Paper Plate claiming 50 has ghostwriters. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.134.8.58 (talk) 20:38, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

        I quite agree. There was a lot of publicity about this challenge in 2008. It should at least be metioned. 

Yeah i think so too, i think kanye dropped out but either way he still won selling more albums then 50pesos. —Preceding unsigned comment added by David Iwright (talk • contribs) 17:45, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] 50 Cent a Republican?

I have a link here that says he's a Republican. Can anyone back this up? http://www.nndb.com/people/539/000024467/ —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wesley M. Curtus (talk • contribs) 07:04, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

He said he would have voted for George W. Bush had his convicted felon status not prevented him from doing so, but that comment alone doesn't make him a Republican. 72.192.203.13 (talk) 05:43, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

50 Cent claimed that the New Orleans disaster was an act of God, because he was supporting George W. Bush. I don't know if he was supporting McCain.--BubbleBabis (talk) 11:30, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

[edit] 50 Cent external link add

Under external links i would like to add my bio page on 50 cent. [ www.hiphop.sh/50cent ]

• 50 Cent The 411 on F-50 [authored by Balance: 411@hiphop.sh]

Much appreciation for your time,--Cuz187 (talk) 05:11, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, but self-published pages can't be added to the EL section. Please see WP:EL for more. Carl.bunderson (talk) 06:30, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

Do we really need all these same social networking site external links? The 2 main social networking sites in the world are Myspace and YouTube which all musicians have, so why has the 50 Cent article got external links for Bebo and Ning? A quick google search shows bebo has less than 1% of the worldwide market share of the social networking sites and Ning has about the same. I think the bebo and ning external links should be removed, and all the other social networking links which are Myspace and YouTube should stay. Do you agree? Danielspencer2 (talk) 04:39, 9 September 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Buisness Deals

Can someone add a buisness deals section and net worth? 50 cent is one of the most succesfull rappers ever and is a great buisnessman. I think a buisness deals section would be a important add. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.193.32.110 (talk • contribs) 20:36, 6 September 2008

[edit] Records Sold

50 Cent Has Sold Over 40 Million Records Now You Nedd To Update —Preceding unsigned comment added by Noddyyyyy (talk • contribs) 22:53, 27 September 2008 (UTC)

[edit] "Half Dolla" Redirect

Is it really necessary to have the following:

 "Half Dolla" redirects here. For the coin, see Half dollar (United States coin). 

I think it's perfectly reasonable to redirect "Half Dolla" to this page, but to then suggest that they might mean "Half dollar (United States coin)" seems to imply that "Half Dolla" is an accepted abbreviation or synonym for "Half Dollar (United States coin)". Neither Mr. Jackson nor the term "Half Dolla" have anything to do with the US coin to the point of helping someone find information about the US coin by way of a nick name for a rapper.

No. It isn't necessary. I will remove this message now. -- MISTER ALCOHOL ^{T C} 06:08, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Y Done. -- MISTER ALCOHOL ^{T C} 06:10, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Quincy Jones bond

I've heard rumours that Quincy Jones helped 50 Cent with some songs/albums. Is this true? -- MISTER ALCOHOL ^{T C} 06:07, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

[edit] 25 Cent

This article used to, or maybe still, mention that 50 Cent had a cousin nicknamed 25 Cent. Is this true? -- MISTER ALCOHOL ^{T C} 06:04, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Haha! I doubt it, it was probably just vandalism. GlassCobra 06:43, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Yes 50 has a cousin who is currently active in rapping. Friends called him 25 cent but because its such a weird name he calls himself 'Two Five'. His dj is Dj Whiteowl btw. 7:14pm 16-04-09

[edit] The Money and the Power

This article makes no mention of 50's upcoming reality TV show.--69.204.28.90 (talk) 22:27, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Film Role

There is no mention of him being cast in the remake of 13 Tzameti, which was reported on October 23.(MissFormaldehyde420 (talk) 17:47, 25 October 2008 (UTC))

[edit] 50 Cent: The Money and the Power

I couldn't find anything about his new reality show elsewhere on Wikipedia. MTV does not give the last name of the competitors, but one of the competitors, Ryan Mayberry, has listen them with last names at RyanMayberry.com, cast-member official site.

There's the link for footnote. I can't get in to edit 50 Cent since it's locked except to registered users.

Here are the names:

• Ryan Mayberry
• Joanne Paguio
• Larry Wade
• Nima Tabrizi
• Nathan Strickland
• Rebecca Clark
• Precious [no last name available]

--207.237.223.118 (talk) 15:58, 7 November 2008 (UTC) It's really a shame that 50 cent is such a shit musician. I wonder why people purchase his music?

Don't offend 50. And you need better grammar. 50 Cent is NOT "shit". He's one of the most-recognized rappers in the world. -- MISTER ALCOHOL ^{T C} 05:36, 15 November 2008 (UTC)

[edit] New Picture

I was looking, and the picture in 50 wiki is old needs updating. In the old picture he looks fat/chubby. I think it should be change because hes now slimer.

[edit] Mike Tyson

I removed a section which rather casually asserted as fact the claims of someone who has been under indictment for murder and drug trafficking. It is not at all clear to me that the Tyson connection belongs in this article at all, unless there have been some kind of legal proceedings in that regard.--Jimbo Wales (talk) 20:29, 6 February 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Error in the "Feud with Rick Ross" section

50 Cent Took Shots At Rick Ross On The Here I Am Freestyle. In this section, 50 cent is inaccurately quoted in his song directed at Rick Ross. It states, in reference to Lil' Wayne, that 50 cent says, "You're awfully quiet. You called 'em out... you've got to pass me to get to him." However, it isn't "'em," but "Em," as he is referring to when Lil' Wayne called out his mentor/boss, Eminem. Henceforth, "you've got to pass me to get to HIM." This small grammatical error changes the whole meaning behind the lyrics, and misrepresents the feud. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.228.165.229 (talk) 01:24, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

I also see it says 50 Cent posted a sex tape and want to point out that "Double R" means Ruff Ryders, the label that DMX and L.O.X. are signed to. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.226.157.22 (talk) 00:16, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

In the video 50 said that the RR stood for Rick Ross. It was meant to be a joke. SE KinG. User page. Talk. 00:31, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Birth Date

The year he was born is 1975, not 1976, per reference 1. Corrected.1975, Jtbagwelljr (talk) 02:01, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

[edit] thisis50.com

There needs to be more info on 50's official website.

"50 Cent has also garnered interest online through his website thisis50.com. New music, music videos and news are released here.

Wkdpedia (talk) 09:58, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Controversy section

This section is POV according to WP:CRITICISM and WP:CSECTION and should be merged to the main musical career section. Look how short the "rise to fame (2000-present)" section is compared to the feuds section. Yes the G-Unit vs. the Game feud is very well-known but I think there's way too much focus on a bunch of obscure, "yesterday's news" type of diss songs. --Andrewlp1991 (talk) 01:15, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

The Lil Wayne beef info really needs to be fixed. The last line about ". . . and don't tell 50 shit." is not a reference to 50 Cent. It is a reference to the Police, commonly referred to as '5-0' and '50'. It's actually fairly obvious since it wouldn't make any sense if he did mean 50 Cent. BGRuthless (talk) 02:20, 24 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Wu-Tang Clan Beef

50 Cent has a long-standing beef with the Wu-Tang Clan dating back to his references to them in How to Rob. The GZA has a diss song about 50, Paper Plates, on Pro Tools. Metalb (talk) 13:57, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

Result: Delist. GA issues, including uncited statistics and opinion, unencyclopedic prose and neutrality issues remain unaddressed after several weeks. Articles can be renominated at GAN at any time. Geometry guy 20:55, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

This article needs a reassessment, Because some paragraphs are without references and parts of the Controversy section do not present a neutral point of view. Aaroncrick^{(Tassie Boy talk)} 01:10, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

• Comment: When referring to 50 Cent (Curtis Jackson) in the Feud with Lil Wayne sub-section, sometimes it refers to him a just "50" and others as "50 Cent". Surely he should be referred to as "50 Cent or his given name "Curtis Jackson" not "50" as the reader may get confused. Aaroncrick^{(Tassie Boy talk)} 03:01, 21 June 2009 (UTC)
• Comment: I agree with the GAR nominator, that this GA (from July 2007) could stand for some improvements. There are some referencing issues and unsourced bits throughout, as well as use of poor sources such as IMDB. Cirt (talk) 05:33, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

You added Snoop Dogg as an associated act. I think 50 and Snoop only did together the "P.I.M.P." official remix, but it not means that Snoop and 50 are associated acts.--BubbleBabis (talk) 11:24, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Fiddy

I wanted to know what the word "Fiddy" means. Fiddy redirects to this article, but this article doens't mention at all. Two questions:

• What is a fiddy?
• Why does the term 'fiddy' redirect to 50 Cent?

Johan Lont (talk) 13:02, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

I removed the redirection link from Fiddy to 50 Cent, because it only confuses. I'll if I can have Fiddy deleted. Johan Lont (talk) 13:04, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

I found the information on Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Fiddy : Fiddy is an alternative pronunciation / spelling for Fifty. I'll add that to the 50 Cent article, because if I need that explanation, others might too. Johan Lont (talk) 13:08, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned references in 50 Cent

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of 50 Cent's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "young-buck-rehab":

• From G-Unit Records: Shaheem Reid (October 21, 2008) Young Buck Says The Rehab Will Sell A Million In A Week MTV.com Accessed November 29, 2008.
• From Young Buck: Shaheem Reid (October 21, 2008) Young Buck Says The Rehab Will Sell A Million In A Week MTV.com Accessed January 19, 2009.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 00:00, 10 November 2009 (UTC)
