  1. > During a segment of the interview, 50 is asked directly by host DJ Envy whether it’s true that Trump offered him money to endorse him.

    > 50 says yes, then clarifies, “I got a a call, but they wanted me [for] Sunday.”

    > In a quick exchanges, Envy then repeats a report that 50 was asked to perform his hit “Many Men” at the Republican National Convention over the summer, then 50 says “They offered $3 million,” presumably referring to Sunday’s rally, but confirming that he was asked about both.

    > He then says, “I didn’t even go far… I didn’t talk to them about that kinda stuff. I’m afraid about politics,” he says to laughter. “You understand? I do not like no part about them.”

  2. correct me if i’m wrong but hasn’t he endorsed trump? you know it’s bad when your own fans don’t trust you to pay them

  3. 50 cent and Em have to be the most down to earth rappers. Motherfuckers keep their business to themselves, but not afraid to call people out for being fucking idiots.

  4. I’ll say it again for the people in the back – 50 Cent has truly phenomenal business acumen

  5. Step 1) get paid beforehand
    Step 2) endorse Harris at Trump Rally.
    Step 3) profit.

  6. I can’t see the guy who made a second career out of trying to expose Diddy being down for a Trump rally.

  7. When brothas become political, and start to maneuver
    They’ll give you a hundred years man, they did it to Hoover

    -50 Cent

  8. Good job don’t regret bumping the music for motivation. Man has values

  9. Some of these comments don’t know 50 has openly supported Trump this year. He just didn’t do the MSG gig.

  10. This man is amazing…he can’t be bought and he has hated didiy since jump..plus trump never pays his bills

  11. Should demand up front pay and then not show up. Let the campaign try to claw back something.

  12. 50 doesn’t need 3 mil. He made more off the vitamin water acquisition than he ever will with music (which I imagine is a fuck ton)

  13. Think it’s kind of insane that campaign funds and donations are going towards entertainment at a publicity stunt rally in NYC. Basically like throwing money directly into the garbage.

    It’s also a horrendous business move, since 50 is working on his Diddy documentary that is going to give him a considerable amount of publicity next year.

  14. I bet he’s not even for Kamala. He’s staying out of politics like any reasonable artist should

  15. 50 demanded all cash and no checks so the deal was off when Trump replied to pay with his crypto coin.

    Thats how I imagine it went down . The art of the deal.

  16. So that’s what Fuck Off Money looks like. Jeff Bezos is a whiny, frightened bitch.

  17. I just saw a YouTube ad of Trump begging for money and donations.

    But you have $3 million to try and get a black person to pretend to support you?

    The same people that are all over here crying about Beyoncé and celebrities being at Kamala’s rally are fine with this I’m sure.

    “Trump doesn’t need celebrities to go to his rallies!”

    He just doesn’t have the support of any relevant ones.

  18. The offer could have been $3 Billion.

    Trump doesn’t pay his bills.

  19. I just would’ve been interested in 50’s reaction when he heard the audience screaming the n-word during speeches.

  20. 50 Has Supported Trump since the beginning because it would save him money.

    It was on a late night talk show from years back.

    50 has been boed promoting Trump at effects this year.

    50 is a single voter when it comes to what’s best for 50

  21. Probably afraid of leftist cancellation. After all, it’s what they do.

  22. $3 Million is an insult if Elon is handing out a milli every day to Joe Blows across the Midwest.

  23. Smart Man! Not selling his soul to either devil; Diddy nor Trump, while losing fans!

  24. One of them is a cagey businessman, the other is orange.
