Book Description

October 2, 2007
"When I look at these pictures and think about my days growing up on the south side of Queens, they're such distant memories that sometimes it feels like a movie I watched...But all those things add up to me being who I am - being 50 Cent."

50 x 50 is a provocative look inside the mind of 50 Cent.

Through candid, raw personal essays and rare family photos, this compelling book tells the story of a man who rose from a life of hardcore hustling to one of unrivaled success not just in the music industry, but in the entertainment and commercial world beyond.

Inside this full-color, illustrated autobiography, you'll find pieces of memorabilia from 50 Cent's life - handwritten song lyrics, mixtape covers, stage passes, and more - making 50 x 50 a powerful interactive experience. From the first written word to the final hook, 50 x 50 delivers all the honesty and flow you'd expect from hip-hop's most intriguing star.

Exclusive CD with never-before-released music track inside.

He is the first artist to have four songs in the top ten of Billboard's Hot 100 since the Beatles in 1964. He published his life's story in the New York Times bestseller From Pieces to Weight, hailed as "cool, hard, and vivid, a minor classic of gangster rap noir" (The New York Times). His business empire includes: a record label (G-Unit Records, a division of Interscope Records), apparel/footwear ventures (G-Unit Clothing and footwear, joint ventures through the Ecko- Clothing Company and Reebok, respectively), vitamin water (Formula 50, through Glacéau's Vitamin Water), and a watch line (G-Unit Watches, through Jacob & Co.). His future plans include his most prized project: the nonprofit organization The G-Unity Foundation, which aims to better the life of urban youth.

This book is awesome if you are a fan who wants to get to know 50 better r feel closer in some way as an old friend of his would, this book lets u c the real 50 Cent up close and personal no doubt. Love the old childhood n teenage photos, my favorite is the lyrics to hit songs he wrote in his own handwriting in this book. I haven't heard the bonus cd yet think I will keep this book as a collectible item myself.
