In the past decade, 50 Cent has established himself at one of the world’s highest selling rappers. Born Curtis Jackson III, from the South Jamaica neighborhood of Queens, New York, he learned how to rap under Run DMC’s DJ Jam Master Jay in the late 1990s. After putting out the underground single How to Rob in 1999, he survived being shot nine times in 2000. He kept rapping and was discovered by Eminem in 2002 on the strength of his Guess Who’s Back? mixtape, signing to Eminem’s Shady Records and Dr. Dre’s Aftermath label later that year. He also released the mixtape No Mercy, No Fear that featured the track Wanksta, and was later used on Eminem’s 8 Mile soundtrack. 50’s debut album Get Rich or Die Tryin’ was released in 2003 on Interscope Records and debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, selling 872,000 copies in the first four days, and moving an astonishing 12 million copies worldwide. The album has a funky bounce of dark synth and drum kicks, and its lead single In da Club booms with horn bursts, propulsive organ, handclaps, and his signature laid-back and collected flow, captivating ticket buyers with its groove. In 2003, he also founded G-Unit Records, home to several successful rappers including, Lloyd Banks, Tony Yayo, and Young Buck. His subsequent albums, 2005’s The Massacre and 2007’s Curtis, were also commercial smashes, spawning sold-out concert tours around the world. Billboard magazine lauds him the number one rap artist of the 2000s, and his new album Street King Immortal is due out in 2014.
I think the title says it all - I know the main event always starts late, that's how it is with all concerts. However waiting until 1:00 p.m. and still not seeing 50 cent is a little too much! The crowd in the VIP seats were standing on their seats, ensuring that no one behind them could see anything. At that point we left, cuz all we could see were the butts of the guys standing up on the VIP seats.
Not only did he appear 3 hours after the doors opened, but only performed for no more than 25 minutes. A waste of $117.
The description of the event was misleading. I was expecting a 50 Cent concert, not a DJ party. I had to wait for 5 hours to see the artist for only 20 minutes. The sound was awful. I heard deep bass and the DJ screaming in the mic. No 50.
After waiting for like 3 hours 50 cent came for like 30 minutes and left… in addition the sound wasn’t great so from where I was sitting I could barely hear him
50 Cent @ Krypto was Amazing‼️ Full of Surprises‼️
He never disappoints, besides coming out late, at his last two concerts ive went to see him perform at. Still worth the wait, just saying. It said 11am and he didn't come out till 4pm. Live and learn
He performed for 32 minutes, he said “I’m out here sweating for y’all” after keeping us there for 5 hours since it started at 11 & he didn’t get there til 4-430 but we were the ones inconveniencing him 🙄 & then he walked off the stage & left without saying bye. My first concert & my last.
Great show , a little short. The DJ’’s did a good job keeping the pool party full of excitement until 50 came out and performed. Great time !
The concert was supposed to start at 11:00am and he did not perform until 5:00pm. We paid for a baby sitter and had to leave by 4:00pm. We never got to enjoy the concert because of his late performance. What a waste of money! We even paid for the VIP upgrade.
Bought a ticket to see 50 cent only for him to be done by the time me and the birthday girl got there , apparently only 30 min left of the entire event. Sat in a pool for 30 mins my boys were djing on the main stage and that was it , not a smart choice to buy this ticket. Would LOVE a refund but thats Obviously not gonna happen.
