50 cent also owned a boxing promotion company.
50 Cent is well known for hits like In Da Club, Candy Shop, and Remember The Name with Ed Sheeran and Eminem. He’s also well known for the biopic Get Rich or Die Tryin, acting in a football movie, his close friendship with Eminem, and for being the only rapper on Shady Records not to diss Ja Rule.
But 50 also has a motto for athletes: Get Fit Or Die Tryin’. Why? He used to be a boxer. Here he is with legendary Floyd Mayweather.
Yes, long before there was a Candy Shop to be sung, 50 used to box. He was extremely talented and won a number of boxing tournaments. But his future wouldn’t be in boxing. Many believe him to the best rapper ever.
