50 Cent
Born in South Jamaica, Queens to a drug slinging mother, Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson has seen his life change dramatically.
50 went from being shot nine times and following in his mother’s drug laden foot steps to being a multi-millionaire and earning a reported $400 million for his investment into the Vitamin Water brand.
Physically Curtis has gone from G-Unit tank tops a crossover in tailored suits and ties that have graced many daytime talk show couches.
His album Get Rich or Die Tryin has been certified 8 times platinum by the RIAA and has sold over 15 million copies worldwide.
