He went on to release a collection of projects and produce Power, a television series in its sixth season. In 2005, he starred in a biopic named for the album. The album included “In Da Club” and “Back Down,” a diss toward Ja Rule, with whom he’d beefed throughout his career. He continued his mixtape run, releasing a series of projects alongside Lloyd Banks and Tony Yayo, the original members of G-Unit, before dropping his studio debut, Get Rich or Die Tryin’, on February 6, 2003. Two years later, he reemerged with Guess Who’s Back?, a project that caught the attention of Eminem and that would help 50 sign with Shady/Aftermath. On May 24, 2000, 50 was shot nine times in South Jamaica, Queens. In 1999, he released “How to Rob,” a song that jokingly described how he would relieve an array of A-list rappers of their prized possessions. Selling drugs from age 12, 50 led a rough life as he entered the rap game with a co-sign from Jam Master Jay of Run-DMC.
