When you’ve got three critically-acclaimed prolific rappers in one show, you know you’re going to get one hell of a night! 50 Cent’s The Final Lap Tour will conquer 39 major cities across the U.S. and Canada. 50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis James Jackson, promises to perform his greatest hits, as well as songs that had not been performed in decades. The rapper took to social media to announce his massive world tour with the caption, “You've waited long enough! THE FINAL LAP TOUR celebrating GET RICH OR DIE TRYIN' – 20 YEARS LATER.”

Jackson’s debut album, Get Rich or Die Tryin’, wasn’t an overnight success as fans would have thought. The album is a result of Jackson’s perseverance, and talent, with a bit of help from accomplished music producers and fellow rappers Eminem and Dr. Dre. In the late ‘90s, 50 Cent was already a controversial music artist. His single, “How to Rob,” stirred the underground scene but impressed Eminem. Before releasing this hit, Jackson was signed by Columbia Records. However, the deal did not pan out due to the controversial nature of his rap songs. He then founded his own label G-Unit, which released his mixtapes Guess Who’s Back and 50 Cent is the Future. In 2003, Jackson dropped his debut album, Get Rich or Die Tryin’. The album has a slew of esteemed producers, including Eminem, Dr. Dre, Megahertz, Dirty Swift, and Rockwilder, among others. By that time, G-Unit had Interscope Records as a financial backer.

The album dropped its lead single, “In da Club,” which became a phenomenal success. The song went to number 1 on four Billboard charts, including the Hot 100. 50 Cent was part of the few elite rappers, like Eminem, Ja Rule, Snoop Dogg, Nelly, and Ludacris, who have made it to the top of the era. However, 50 Cent released another number 1 hit, “21 Questions,” making him the only rapper to have two number 1 Billboard Hot 100 songs that year.

The debut album moved on to sell over nine million copies in the U.S., making it the best-selling album of that year. Meanwhile, its lead single, “In da Club,” earned nine-time platinum status. Jackson’s exemplary work with the record earned him several accolades, including a Grammy nomination, a Billboard Music Award, and an American Music Award.
