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

[Intro: 50 Cent (Mary J. Blige)]
MJ
50 Cent
G-Unit!
This, is, sim-ple
I, feel, you understand
Another, man
Can't, quite
Love you girl, (yeah, a little louder) like I can
Your fantasies and your dreams
Believe in me, I will fulfill
Now you know, how I feel
Now baby, tell me, how do you feel
[Verse 1: Mary]
Boy I feel like this just can't be real
And if I'm dreamin' please don't wake me up
So what's the deal, should I save my love for you?
Cause no one makes me feel the way that you do
[Pre-Chorus: Mary]
You make me wanna see your face every day (mmm)
Deep down inside I know that you're my soul mate (you are my soul mate)
If you should leave, I'm waiting patiently (oh, don't leave)
Cause boy I know that you're the one for me (ooh)
[Chorus]
Let me be the one to give you everything (boy I wanna be the one)
Let me be the one that's always in your dreams (always be in your dreams)
Let me be the one who'd be right by your side (I'll be there, I'll be there)
Let me be the one (Let me be the one)
Let me be the one (Let me be the one)
[Verse 2: Mary]
I'm your girl, see there's no one quite like me
Nobody will love you the way that I do
I get chills when you put your arms around me
You make me feel like I'm the only one
[Pre-Chorus: Mary]
You make me wanna see your face everyday
Deep down inside I know that you're my soul mate (you are my soul mate)
If you should leave, I'm waiting patiently (I'll be right here waiting)
Cause boy I know that you're the one for me (you're the one, you're the one)
[Chorus: Mary J. Blige]
Let me be the one to give you everything (ohh, let me be)
Let me be the one that's always in your dreams (I wanna be the one in your dreams, babe)
Let me be the one who'd be right by your side (I'll be there, I'll be there)
Let me be the one, (baby, let me)
Let me be the one (heyyyy-oooohh)
[Verse 3: 50 Cent]
Baby if ever you need someone who knows you
Someone to go to, someone to be by your side
Baby if ever you need someone to talk to
Someone to hold you, someone to be down to ride
You can count on me, I'll be there for you
When you need me, I care for you like you care for me
Please believe me if I was locked up, I know you'd be the one to come see me
Because you understand life where we from ain't easy
Problems, they say when it rains it pours
But I'm sure together we could weather the storm
Your friends, they don't understand the shit we on
When I'm gone I'm missin you, your love is unconditional
You're my heart, I need you to live, picture me dissin you
Now picture something positive, me huggin and kissin you
If you ever doubt how I feel, then this is what you should listen to
(Listen to, listen to)
[Chorus: Mary]
Let me be the one to give you everything
Let me be the one that's always in your dreams
Let me be the one who'd be right by your side
Let me be the one, let me be the one
Let me be the one to give you everything
(let me be the one, let me be the one, let me be the one for you)
Let me be the one that's always in your dreams
(let me be the one, let me be the one, let me be the one for you)
Let me be the one who'd be right by your side
(let me be the one, let me be the one, let me be the one for you)
Let me be the one, let me be the one
(let me be the one, let me be the one, let me be the one for you)
[Outro: Mary]
Let me be the one, let me be the one, let me be the one for you
Let me be the one, let me be the one, let me be the one for you
Let me be the one, let me be the one, let me be the one for you
Let me be the one, let me be the one, let me be the one for you
Let me be the one, let me be the one, let me be the one for you
Let me be the one, let me be the one, let me be the one for you
