Watch 50 cent get arrested for a number of traffic offenses, which happened Friday in New York.
The police gave him four summonses: one for driving with an expired permit, one for driving an unregistered vehicle, one for driving without insurance and one for an unsafe lane change. Damn, this dude really thought he was invincible?
Thanx to CL visitor Megan, who was kind enough to email me the video.
NEW YORK (Reuters) – Rapper 50 Cent was arrested for traffic offenses while driving a silver, open-topped Lamborghini on Friday, generating a crowd that cheered the recording artist and jeered police as they handcuffed him.
The rapper, whose given name is Curtis Jackson, was cited for making an unsafe lane change, driving with an expired permit, driving without insurance and driving without a vehicle registration, a police spokesman said.
The 31-year-old recording artist was pulled over in Midtown Manhattan by plainclothes officers in an unmarked patrol car. At first he refused a police order to get out of the car, instead making a call on his cell phone, tourist Ian Parvess said. READ MORE
ROFL @ when the police asked him to get out the car, he said no and made a call on his cell phone…WOW
This dude REALLY thought he was King of NY.
DUMMMMMMMMM ASSSSSSSSSS! lol
hE GOT OUT THE CAR SLOW AS HELL! all that cash and u ridin bogus?
And the crowd cheering for him. Like this ain’t even a case where a black man is WRONGFULLY arrested. This nigga was just plain dumb as all hell.
I CANT STAND HIS MESSY ASS
This video=suspect.
So he was filming a video right?
What plain clothes undercover police officers u know want to bring all that attention to themselves just to give out some traffic tickets?
Humm
kind.
And I’m not saying it was fake, I’m just saying I think those, ahem, traffic cops dressed in plain clothes in an generic unmarked car wanted to have a little chat with him bout something.
kind.
#6, I don’t think so. If he was, I’m sure a director or somebody would’ve notified NYPD about it especially if they were filming it in a busy place like midtown Manhattan.
50 was just being a coon
@ Tianna ok? some broad screamin 50! 50! 50! like he can answer her dumb as back lol
@ Tianna “coon” OH LAWD LMAO! ok I’m off this post!
50, what a jerk, like someone cares about his ol’ bitch ass!! still sexy tho lol
WHat a sloppy negro, 50 next time let a licensed driver drive you, foolish dummy!!!
50 cent is an idiot.he cannot afford A PERSONAL DRIVER AND CAR ASSURANCE?
What REALLY happened….
50 was at his office nearby, when his Ferrari that was ordered thru his Automobile Broker was delivered, he was so excited, he jumped into the car to take it for a spin around the block. Of course that was the dumb move, but think about it, you would be hella excited too.
He explaned to the police that his papers were nearby, less than 1 hour later, his assistant brought the required documents to the police station, he was released thru the back door.
Poor fifty – at least it was publicity.
@ 7, I know right? Why didn’t they just give him a ticket? Why they arrest him? And where the hell all those people come from? word of mouth work fast as hell in NY dont it!
Why were those cops in plain cars? They didnt even put him in a cop car, they put him in a limo! LOL
50 not the smartest person, he’s too old to being showing out like that
Well 50 is still a coon lol
I was in midtown and saw this ish play out. Too funny for words. I love youtube you can upload just about anything.
Just another instance in where broke niggaz with money act stupid….
for everybody saying 50 is dumb. explain how a nigga make a 100 mill in 3 years and got everybody playing the game is way.50 is dat dude people hate on him for no reason i bet u y’all hate on him but y’all prolly got his whole collection.
i went out with vivica i though i was into something the i found out it was nuthing (funniest line ever).
50 cent
#14, finally a response that makes sense!
50 knows and every rapper in NYC knows that there’s a hiphop police force tailing them around the clock (see http://www.thesmokinggun....chive/1008041hiphop1.html): So I knew there had to be an explanstion why 50 would push a Lambo w/o his papers and w/o his 50 bodyguards.
Ppl are really trying to act like he drove down from CT w/o his stuff in order, when he really prob was going to whip it around the block. Yes, that’s stupid when you know the NYPD is looking for a reason to lock your ass up, but it’s not as stupid as the media makes it seem.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Thats what happened, yall are the dumb ones, 50 is getting publicity everywhere and yall feed into that shit. The nigga was driven a block to some nearby pd and released in like 10 minutes. What did he lose from this? Nothing. What did he gain? His name in every newspaper, and on TV and a whole bunch of publicity. Dotn no one wanna be down with the police, getting arrested actually helps rap careers,
I’m just tripping off of how tiny the font got when it came time to rep Megan for emialing the story.
Thanks for the clarity @ #14.
50 doesn’t need to pull any publicity stunts. Why would a ‘gangsta’ rapper want to be arrested for a traffic offense? NYPD just wanted to fuck with a black man driving a Lamborghini.
LOL @ #23! I peeped that too.
This is hilarious. 50 got pulled over for an illegal lane change in MIDTOWN MANHATTAN. Have you guys ever been to midtown. I mean everyone does illegal lane changes; that’s the only way to maneuver through traffic. I mean, ya, he shouldn’t get off bc it was illegal, but if they are gonna stop him they need to stop every damn taxi driver on Manhattan island. I don’t like 50, but this was obviously a case of the NYPD profiling rappers. Case closed.
Look at the project muther fuckers! Down there looking a fool. Acting a fool over a nigga they don’t even know. SMHID.
So 50 is a multi-millaionaire but can’t afford to get insurance and registration for his ride? What’s that all about?
Great point The Ultimate.
I think it was not the smartest move on 50s part. And when you knwo there is a special division in the NYPD just for this type of shit i would be extra careful.
I waiting on a 60 minutes expose of this shit. But from what I hear everytime somebody gets really vocal about it something happens to them.
YA’LL STUPID.I KNOW WHEN I BUY A NEW WHIP I AIN,T WORRIED ABOUT MY LIESENCE,TAGS OR THE PUSSY ASS police.THEY CAN GET EVERYTHING FROM THE TAGS(fags).THEY KNOW WHO HE IS SO HE DON’T NEED A LICSENCE.I’LL BET WHEN THEY PULLED BUSH OVER FOR DRUNK DRIVIN HE DIDN’T GO TO THE POKEY.THEY JUST PULLED ONE OF THE MYRIAD OF RULES(a.k.a. laws)OUT THEY ASS CAUSE THEY COULD.YOU DON’T EVER HERE OF COPS TICKETING COPS DO YOU?I WONDER WHY?
STOP THE HATE-INNNN GARS.YOU ARE SHOWING YOUR IGNORANCE.
TO #14 CHLOE, thanx for clearing up the story
i do find it funny that 5-0 pulled over 50 (pun intended) for an illegal lane change in Midtown Manhattan….I’VE DRIVEN IN NYC AND THEM FOLKS DRIVE LIKE THEY ARE STONE COLD CRAZY…people backin up from side streets into oncoming traffic…folks driving on the wrong side of the road…the only way you can ever get anywhere is to make an illegal lane change…
the only other place where I’ve seen people drive that crazy is in the Middle East
how the heck did the crowd gather so FAST????
i know why 50 didn’t think about having the proper ppwk when he drove the car…cuz so many of those new yorkers drive illegally ANYWAY, AND a bunch of them DO NOT HAVE CAR INSURANCE CUZ IT’S 2 DAGGON EXPENSIVE…
I saw Get Rich or Die Tryin…he didn’t have a driver’s license in the movie either!! LOL
did the girl screamin “50, 50, 50″ REALLY EXPECT HIM TO WAVE BACK AND COME GIVE HER A HUG OR SOMETHIN??
Wow…it does not pay to be black, lol… Paris drives drunk, hits cars and drives away…nothing happens. What a “GREAT” country we live in.
Was the crowd booing the police or fiddy?lol
i love black people..but I hate Niggas..50 needs to quit thinking his ass is invincible
Nice car, but why are people calling it a Ferrari, it’s a
LAMBORGHINI!!
Even with the knowledge that the police have a seperate faction just for targeting rappers, than all the more so should you have your stuff together. I mean as black folks we already know that they’re looking for anything they can to lock us up. So why even give them anything to work with?
Some of these comments are so stupid, you would think you was on a white supremacist site, with some of the shit you people say.
@29 i agree
and @14 good job 4 clearin dat up
#23 you are crazy,I noticed that but thought nothing of it.LMAO
NEXT………
LOL @ Tracey…Yall leave 50 alone…..I love him=)..bout damn time i was able to get on here…I couldn’t see the site for 2 dang on days…GEEZ
PUBLICITY!!! How’d the word go around that 50 was gettin arrested. It looked like a video-shoot to me. This nigga tried to pull a Mos-Def. Well, that shit didn’y go right. Try Plan B 50.
WHY WHEN A BLACKMAN DOES SOMETHING WRONG HE’S ALWAYS REFERRED TO IN RACIST TERMS SUCH AS BEING A COON OR A NIGGA BUT WHEN A BLACKWOMAN DOES SOMETHING SHE’S NEVER REFERRED TO AS SUCH
THE CAR IS ALL CHROME, OFF DA CHAIN. ONLY ONE WITH ONE
50 has enough money to hire someone to keep track of his expiration dates and insurance… That’s just dumb. He knows he’s not going to “get off” with the cops, so why give them a reason to lock you up.
In my state, if you don’t have insurance on you, you WILL get locked up until someone brings proof down to the station.
PEOPLE COME ON U REALLY THINK 50 CANT AFFORD TO GET HIS STUFF STRAIGHT?# PHILLYDON I AGREE WITH YOU I LOVE 50 MOST OF THE TIME OFFICERS IN PLAIN CLOTHING ARE LOOKING FOR SOMETHING DRUGS…SOMETHING 10-37 (SUSPICIOUS) ESPECIALLY DRIVING A CAR LIKE THIS MOST STARS DONT HAVE LICENSE,INSURANCE BECAUSE OF THE INFORMATION THAT PEOPLE CAN GET FROM THESE THINGS LIKE HOME ADDRESS ETC..TRUST ME I KNOW
any black man in a decent vehicle needs to make sure he has all his shit in order because his ass will be pulled over
people c’mon yall act like fifty just robbed a bank it’s not like he’s going to do any time and he’s far from stupid he would’ve been stupid if he had a gun in the car or drugs and i’m sure that’s what the cops were looking for.
Who’s the ghetto hoe screamin 50 50 50…LMAO
I like 50! It’s just a shame that no matter what as a black person your quality of life is just so dang on diffrent then the the quality of life of a white person. 50 is a very smart man and he probably just did not think much about taking his ride for whip around the block, and just to think that they just could not give him a ticket? 50 understood what was up and I know he handled himself with care.
I just watched another shot of the arrest of 50 cent and you can tell that he was just like “Damn” all most like “This Shit Is Stupid”. I am just glad that there were a lot of people to witness the entire thing because who knows, if it was late and dark an nobody around they might of tried the “Black Man’s Justice” on My Sweet 50!
ight look i didn’t think famous ppl could obviously get any dummer, but thanks to Curtis i think we can all sleep safely knoing that celebrities r more stupid then pee wee herman. well i wrote this stupid lil freestyle bout this stupid punk, enjoy
