50 Cent, born Curtis Jackson 26 years ago, is the real deal, the genuine article. He's a man of the streets, intimately familiar with its codes and its violence, but still, 50 Cent, an incredibly intelligent and deliberate man, holds himself with a regal air as if above the pettiness which surrounds him. Couple his true-life hardship with his knack for addictive, syrupy hooks, it's clear that 50 Cent has exactly what it takes to ride down the road to riches and diamond rings. His big break come when he was descovered by 2 very well known rap stars. DR DRE and EMINEM
