50 Cent, cuyo nombre de nacimiento es Curtis James Jackson III, nació el 6 de julio de 1975 en el barrio de South Jamaica, Queens, Nueva York. Criado por su madre, Sabrina, quien fue traficante de drogas, 50 Cent enfrentó múltiples dificultades desde una temprana edad. Su madre murió cuando él tenía apenas ocho años, dejando a Curtis bajo el cuidado de sus abuelos.
Durante su adolescencia, Jackson cayó en el tráfico de drogas y tuvo numerosos problemas con la ley. Sin embargo, desde joven mostró interés en la música, escribiendo y componiendo sus propios temas.
El camino hacia el estrellato no fue fácil. 50 Cent comenzó su carrera musical en los últimos años de la década de 1990, grabando su primer álbum Power of the Dollar en 2000 para Columbia Records. Sin embargo, el álbum nunca fue lanzado oficialmente debido a un incidente que cambió su vida: 50 Cent recibió nueve disparos en un tiroteo en mayo de 2000. Milagrosamente, sobrevivió y decidió centrarse completamente en su carrera musical.
Tras recuperarse, 50 Cent llamó la atención de Eminem, quien quedó impresionado por su mixtape Guess Who's Back?. Eminem lo presentó a Dr. Dre, y juntos decidieron firmarlo bajo sus sellos discográficos, Shady Records y Aftermath Entertainment.
En 2003, lanzó su álbum debut Get Rich or Die Tryin', el cual fue un éxito

"Ghetto Superstar!"
[Chorus: 50 Cent] + {Omarion}
Now I shouldn't have to tell you, you should know I'ma superstar
Now bitch come grab my bags be a part of my entourage (Super fly chick)
{Baby I want you to be my entourage}
{If you want then we could take this very far}
[Omarion]
Omarion! Let's Go!
[50 Cent]
Let's rock and roll baby, lock and load baby
You think I ain't runnin' the show run the show, you got to be crazy
I explode on the scene like crack in the 80's
Rather catch a slug, then let a nigga play me
I'm the don of New York, bow down to your highness
Or go against the grain and get moved on with llamas
Rappers keep sayin' they bringin' New York back
I ain't go no where, I am New York Jack!
[Omarion]
I don't need nobody else around see
Love the way you compliment my style
Though you may end up bein' my only girl
Cause when you're with me you're my whole world
Like when its just me and you
Vibe is crazy between us two
You're my homie my lover and even my friend
Now I said this before I'ma say it again
Now here is the situation
I like what we've got happenin'
And I don't want nothing comin' in between both me and you
I'll let you be lieutenant if you let me be captain
Tell me if that's cool
[Chorus: 50 Cent] + {Omarion}
Now I shouldn't have to tell you, you should know I'm a superstar
Now bitch come grab my bags be a part of my entourage (Super fly chick)
{Baby I want you to be my entourage}
{If you want then we could take this very far} (Super fly chick)
[Omarion]
You're a star in your own right
At times you steal the whole spotlight
I don't mind girl you're fine put a smile on my face
Besides who want a chick that no dude would chase
Sometimes I know you're unsure
Wonder if this will endure
Don't make me make a promise that I can't keep
Cause its cool how it is lets not complicate things girl
[50 Cent]
I'ma ghetto star, started out with less than nothin'
Got a little money now I'm on to somethin'
You know a special man need a special woman
The type before you call, she already comin'
You know the kind to listen when you tellin' her somethin'
First sign of a problem, she ain't runnin'
Buy her expensive shit, she don't want it
Sounds like I wouldn't need a prenup don't it? DAMN!
[Chorus: Omarion]
Baby I want you to be my entourage
(Super fly chick)
You could be my personal superstar
(Super fly chick)
Baby I want you to be my entourage
(Super fly chick)
If you want then we could take this very far
(Super fly chick)
[Omarion]
Omarion! 50 Cent!

[50 Cent]
