When I was 17, I met 50 cent. It was shortly after the release of Get Rich or die Trying. I’ve met quite a few celebrities in my lifetime including Nas. But I think meeting 50 is my favorite and most memorable moment of all. He was so cool and down to earth. Hard to believe it’s been almost 20 years ago.

3:24 "I had money before, but it got away from me" he's a natural comedian!!

50 is a real entertainer...Worked with him back in the day on G-Units " Stunt 101" video...Most money I ever made in 72 hours😮

Dude is smart and talented, I love his music and his movies, dude knows when its the right time to push some buttons.

I appreciate hearing what Mr. C. Jackson has to say most of the time. He always comes off as genuine. Cuz you never know what response he's going to have BUT you can pretty much count on him NOT giving some regurgitated, typical Hollyweird vague b.s. He is going to express how he really feels regardless of consequences or etc. Much like Em. Lol

I love 50 cent so much ! I’m glad he’s here & that he’s been so successful! He deserves all the blessings

[kingsleymazwi]
