2 mn read

Rapper Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson has disclosed that he recently declined a $3 million offer to join former President Donald Trump at a rally in New York. The revelation came during an interview on The Breakfast Club, where 50 Cent explained his hesitation to engage in politics, despite having previously expressed some admiration for Trump.

“I got a call,” 50 Cent confirmed, noting that he had also been invited to perform his hit song “Many Men (Wish Death)” at this year’s Republican National Convention for a similar amount. The 2003 track, which 50 Cent wrote after being shot in 2000, has gained traction among Trump supporters following an assassination attempt on the former president in July.

“Many Men (Wish Death)” surged in popularity, climbing into the top 10 on iTunes and other streaming platforms. 50 Cent even shared an edited album cover featuring Trump’s face. However, despite the lucrative offer, 50 Cent made it clear he was not interested in pursuing the deal. “I didn’t even go far… I didn’t talk to them about that kinda stuff. I’m afraid about politics,” he admitted. He expressed concern that getting involved in politics means encountering strong opposition from those who disagree.

Last month, 50 Cent reflected on Trump’s appeal, connecting the former president’s rallying cry to his own experience of resilience after being shot. “He says ‘fight’,” 50 Cent noted. “All right. And that’s exactly what I did after I got shot. I just went into fight mode. People identify with it that way.”

While Jackson has speculated on Trump’s potential return to the White House, he has stopped short of making an outright endorsement, recently stating on social media, “I think Trump’s gonna be president again, but I’m not going to say that.”

In addition to his musical endeavors, 50 Cent is also working on a Netflix docuseries that examines abuse allegations against fellow music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs. In a statement about the project, Jackson emphasized his commitment to “give a voice to the voiceless and to present authentic and nuanced perspectives.”
