If you couldn’t tell from the last decade, 50 Cent makes it known that he has nothing but love for Eminem. He even dubbed Em his “favorite white boy.” 50 Cent recently sat down and reflected on his love for Eminem, and revealed his favorite song, album and all-time biggest Marshall Mathers moment.
50 Cent was one of the 30 rappers that Complex spoke with to discuss their favorite Eminem events.
50 Cent couldn’t deny the fact that Eminem always sells a lot of albums and get the message across in his songs without taking listeners to a dark place. Here is what 50 had to say:
Favorite Song: “I’m A Soldier.” Loved the march cadence. The song was hard with the intensity of it. He was able to talk about things in the song without really taking you to a dark place.
Favorite Album: Marshall Mathers LP. That shit sold like crazy! Great album.
Favorite Moment: The 2000 MTV Awards show when Em came out with all the Slim Shadys.
Here is Eminem in the 2000 MTV Awards:
In addition to speaking about Eminem, 50 Cent also helped out his friend and actor Robert DeNiro.
Business Standard reports that Robert DeNiro was able to convince 50 Cent to portray a gangsta rapper in the upcoming film Last Vegas. The director Jon Turteltaub was unable to find the right rapper to take on this small role but DeNiro was successful in inviting 50 Cent to the set.
50 Cent has been focusing a lot on other business aspects besides music. Hopefully him and Eminem can work together again and that we can see a new 50 Cent album in the near future.
