50 Cent started the year with a feud with Teairra Mari. In a court award, the rapper cum actor had won $30,618 but Marri had not paid a single dime and the claim had accumulated to $37,000 because of interest.

50 Cent Shared a Meme

Despite the rough beginning, 50 cent’s success is on the right streak. On July 12, the Pepsi Super Bowl LVI Halftime Show was nominated under the Variety Special (Live).

The actor who was also featured on the ‘Power TV Show” shared a meme that he could win his first Emmy Award.

February’s Super Bowl Halftime Show Was Lit

50 Cent is appearing on the award list because of the February 13th Super Bowl Halftime show in which the Los Angeles Rams floored the Cincinnati Bengals. The performance was a fusion between rap and R n Bs and brought together top-of-the-range artists such as Mary J. Blige, Eminem, Snoop Dogg, Dr. Dre, and Kendrick Lamar.

According to Ice-T, the performance was hair-raising for hip-hop fans and it will go down as the most memorable 12-minute performance ever. Dr. Dre was the director of the show and his abilities and competency have not only wowed his peers but also captured the attention of Russell Simmons, Big Daddy Kane, Busta Rhymes, and Xzibit.

The Show Was Marred with Controversies

The success of the show is laudable given the fragile nature surrounding its organization. At one point, 50 Cent alleged that Jay Z wanted him out of the show. Eminem however threatened to bail out which forced Jay Z into accommodating the rapper.

Grapevine news indicates that once 50 Cent got wind of the plot and how a ‘white guy’ threatened to pull out of the show for 50 cents, he got furious and fired shots at Jay Z.

Besides 50 Cent, Dre, Kanye, and the others who performed at the Super Bowl event were also nominated for the Emmy Awards. This is the first time for Ye and Dre to be nominated for this particular award. They were nominated because of their performance at the Super Bowl Halftime Show.
