With his single &#8220;In Da Club&#8221; becoming the most listened-to song in radio history within a week at the time, per <a  href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/\"  rel=\"nofollow\"  target=\"_blank\"  ><em>Billboard<\/em><\/a>, the Queens, New York native, quickly became a household name. He then started his own music label, G-Unit Records, and swept the charts again with his third studio effort, 2005&#8217;s <em>The Massacre<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-3\">Since then, 50 Cent, whose real name is <strong>Curtis Jackson, <\/strong>has gone on to release several more albums, starred in a film and even began his own production companies.

He also has his hand in many business ventures, including SMS Audio and SK Energy.<\/p>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-4\">In his personal life, 50 Cent has welcomed two sons with two different women. Although he is estranged to his eldest son <a  href=\"https:\/\/hollywoodlife.com\/2019\/05\/24\/who-is-marquise-jackson-50-cent-son\/\"  ><strong>Marquise Jackson<\/strong><\/a> and was in a <a  href=\"https:\/\/hollywoodlife.com\/2022\/10\/20\/50-cent-son-marquise-reacts-breakfast-club-interview-photos\/\"  >bitter feud with him<\/a>, the entertainer often gushes over his youngest, <strong>Sire Jackson<\/strong>.

After the former couple went their separate ways, Shaniqua claimed 50 Cent promised her his $4 million Long Island Mansion. While she and Marquise were residing in it, the house burned to the ground, with Shaniqua alleging her ex had something to do with it. Although 50 Cent was cleared of any wrongdoing, the former couple continued to feud, which has resulted in a rift between <a  href=\"https:\/\/hollywoodlife.com\/2019\/05\/23\/50-cent-son-marquise-jackson-dad-owes-money-comment-feud\/\"  >Fiddy and Marquise<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"paragraph\">\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-7\">\u201cIt completely went south when I was probably like 10 or 11,\u201d Marquise told\u00a0<a  class=\"external-link\"  title=\"(opens new window)\"  href=\"https:\/\/www.rap-up.com\/2017\/02\/06\/50-cent-son-marquise-jackson-launches-rap-career-opens-up-about-his-father\/\"  target=\"_blank\"  rel=\"noopener nofollow\"  aria-describedby=\"external-disclaimer\"  ><em>Rap-Up<\/em><\/a> in 2017. \u201cHe wasn\u2019t really around enough.

The insult came after Marquise shared a snap of himself hanging out with the son of <strong>Supreme McGriff<\/strong>, one of 50\u2019s rivals, on Instagram. Fiddy commented, \u201cif both these little n\u2014-s got hit by a bus, I wouldn\u2019t have a bad day.\u201d Although the &#8220;Candy Shop&#8221; singer walked back the comment, tweeting he had &#8220;zero ill will towards anyone living,&#8221; the damage had been done. 50 Cent also said he spent $1,360,000 to give Marquise opportunities.<\/p>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-9\">On October 19, 2022, Fif appeared on <em><a  href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=iOXnftzHvvs\"  target=\"_blank\"  rel=\"noopener\"  >The Breakfast Club<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>radio show to talk about the relationship with the now 26-year-old. \u201cI don\u2019t think the relationship works,\u201d Fifty told\u00a0<a  href=\"https:\/\/hollywoodlife.com\/celeb\/charlamagne-tha-god\/\"  ><strong>Charlamagne tha<\/strong> <strong>God<\/strong><\/a>.

Born on September 1, 2012 to Fiddy and his girlfriend at the time, model Daphne Joy, Sire has already been living the high life. When he was just 2 years old, he landed a $700,000 contract with\u00a0Kidz Safe headphones. &#8220;He&#8217;s got a [modeling] deal now with Kidz Safe,&#8221; 50 Cent announced during an interview with Power 105.1, per<a  href=\"https:\/\/www.eonline.com\/news\/634239\/50-cent-s-2-year-old-son-lands-a-700-000-modeling-contract\"  rel=\"nofollow\"  target=\"_blank\"  ><em> E!<\/em><\/a><strong>. &#8220;<\/strong>They paid him a big payment, too.

The actor spent $100,000 to rent out an entire Toys R Us store for the little tyke to shop &#8217;til he dropped, according to <a  href=\"https:\/\/www.eonline.com\/news\/1105141\/50-cent-rents-out-whole-toys-r-us-for-son-before-christmas\"  rel=\"nofollow\"  target=\"_blank\"  ><em>E!<\/em><\/a>. The exciting day was revealed on Daphne&#8217;s Instagram, where she posted several pics of the holiday surprise, captioning it, &#8220;When I asked my Dad for the &#8216;WHOLE Toys R Us Store&#8217; for Christmas I didn&#8217;t think he would actually do it, but he did.&#8221; Another post read, &#8220;Sire&#8217;s in utter shock right now and disbelief.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-13\">50 Cent also gushed about Sire during the 2021 Christmas holiday.
