50 Cent was awarded the key to the city of Houston at this year’s Thanksgiving Parade. Mayor Sylvester Turner presented the key during Thursday’s pre-parade ceremony in the Texas metropolis. 

“This is somebody who is a philanthropist, rapper, artist, businessperson — you name it,” Mayor Turner said during the ceremony. “He used to live in another city up north but found his way down south. This is one person who is now a Houstonian. I want to thank him. The Mayor continued his praise by saying, “He didn’t just come here to live; he has been helping out on so many causes in this city — especially in our high schools, turning our high school students into entrepreneurs with his G-Unity program. This city has been elevated because of his presence, and so today, we have the honor of saying to him, he’s our 2022 Grand Marshal.”

Earlier this week, 50 Cent’s G-unity Foundation linked with the Houston Rockets for a local turkey giveaway to give back for the holidays. He was also given a proclamation honoring his career in entertainment alongside his “countless humanitarian projects.”

Madonna Asks That 50 Cent Stop Bullying Her

Leave a comment

Madonnas Instagram Account Flagged For Spreading False COVID 19 Information

50 Cent and Madonna have been going at it for a while now. The beef might have started years ago, but 50 has taken the time to insult Madonna publicly on social media numerous times in recent years. Just last week, the two were at it again after Madonna posted a video of herself singing along to a Baby Keem song, which caught the attention of 50.

“I told y’all grand ma was on bullshit! like a virgin at 64. LOL” 50 wrote on IG.

It seems Madonna has gotten tired of this back and forth-between her and 50, and recently took to social media to issue a PSA to the Get Rich Or Die Tryin’ rapper to ask him to stop bullying her for simply enjoying her life.

“Stop Bullying Madonna For Enjoying Her Life,” Madonna wrote on her IG story, seemingly responding to her back and forth with 50 Cent.

Just last year, 50 publicly apologized to Madonna for things he had said about the Pop legend after she posted pictures of herself under a bed on Instagram.

 “That’s Madonna under the bed trying to do like a virgin at 63. She shot out, if she don’t get her old ass up. LMFAO,” 50 said in response to the pictures. Madonna then took to her IG story where she posted a picture of the two of them with the message: “Here is 50 Cent pretending to be my friend. Now you have decided to talk smack about me. I guess your new career is getting attention by trying to humiliate others on social media. The least elevated choice you could make as an artist and an adult.”

50 apologized to Madonna shortly after. “I must have hurt Madonna feelings, she went and dug up a [sic] old MTV photo from 03. Ok Im sorry i did not intend to hurt your feelings.I don’t benefit from this in anyway. I hope you accept my apology.” 

However, 50 continues to get under Madonna’s skin despite apologizing.

50 Cent Shares Whether He Thinks Hip Hop Is More Violent Now ‘It’s The Same Energy, But A Different Period’

Leave a comment

50 Cent Expendables

50 Cent recently unveiled his latest show Hip Hop Homicides, hosted by Van Lathan. The show explores the different unsolved homicides in the hip-hop community, including Soulja Slim, XXXTENTACION, King Von, and others.

The first episode explored the February 2020 murder of Pop Smoke. 50 made an appearance during the episode where Van Lathan asked the rapper and businessman whether or not he thinks hip-hop is more violent now than it was in the past.

“I think it’s the same energy, but we’re in a different period, so it looks different,” he said. “It’s gonna happen where everyone can take a look on camera.”

He then used the death of Nipsey Hussle as an example and said that the biggest difference between now and then is accessibility. “Because of social media, everyone’s involved now. Because those kids in middle America are clicking the fucking button to look and are fascinated with the killings because they’re living on a side so wild compared to the conservative lifestyle they’re having.”

You can check out 50’s thoughts below.

Ye Reopens Donda Academy Less Than 24 Hours After Closure, Asks 50 Cent to Help Expansion in Houston

Leave a comment

Kanye West has reversed course on the closure of DONDA Academy in California and is looking to the help of 50 Cent to open a Houston branch.

On Wednesday, in an email intercepted by Hollywood Unlocked, the Academy team thanked the families of students for their support.

“Dear Donda Academy Families- we hope this email finds you well. First we would like to express our gratitude for the community of families and scholars that Donda Academy brought together. However, at the direction of our Founder, Donda Academy will close for the remainder of the 2022-2023 school year effective immediately. Thursday, October 27th. THERE IS NO SCHOOL TOMORROW.”

Hollywood Unlocked owner Jason Lee, who once doubled as Ye’s Head of Media and Partnerships, was then targeted by the rapper after he posted the private message.

“JASON LEE,” Ye wrote. “Here’s the clout you’re looking for. My school is being shut down. You wanna help or hurt.”

Ye and his team doubled back on the families of his students and let them know the school is already reopened.

“Join us tomorrow morning in worship for the return of Donda Academy,” the message reads. “With the help of our parents and community, we are back and returning with a vengeance!

“The children of Donda are going to change the world.”

Back on Instagram, Kanye West called on his former foe 50 Cent for help in opening more schools. “We got Donda school designs we need to build with 50 in Houston,” Ye wrote.
