2000年5月的一个晚上,50 Cent在他爷爷家附近卷入了枪战,尽管后来没有抓到人,但许多评论认为这件事起因非常明显,50 Cent在音乐中的嚣张态度惹的同行们不高兴了。有意思的是,50 Cent的东家,Columbia唱片公司反倒认为这是件天大的好事,在商业上可以刺激唱片的销量。结果事与愿违,50 Cent并没有因此而大红大紫,尴尬的唱片公司决定搁浅50 Cent的新唱片《Power Of The Dollar》的发行计划。“我如果杀几个人,我想我的公司可能更高兴,这他妈到底是怎么了,我真搞不懂。”50 Cent说。
粗略地听一听50 Cent的任何一首作品,会发现他对自己的嘴皮子控制的炉火纯青,音乐天赋很高,当然Dr.Dre和Eminem的钱也不是白花的。50 Cent的新专辑《Get Rich Or Die Tryin》2月6日在美国发行的第一个星期就卖出了八十多万张,为他的公司创下了新的唱片销量记录。50 Cent说:“我和Dr.Dre坐在一起,我们在一起工作、录音。但Dr.Dre或Eminem从来都不干涉我的想法,因为如果那样的话,即使制作出来的是最好的音乐,那也是Eminem式的经典,是Dr.Dre式的经典,而不是50 Cent的。但他们没有这样做,他们让我做自己想做的,不过最后拍板定案的还是他们。”
话虽如此,但并不是巧合,这张由Dr.Dre担任制作人的专辑第一首单曲《In Da Club》,听起来和Dr.Dre的风格非常相似,其他方面,就像之前媒体报道的那样,Eminem也在《Get Rich Or Die Tryin》中的几首作品,比如《Don’t Push Me》和《Many Men(Wish Death)》等等里加入了他自己的想法。
