Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson poses for photos at his book signing in New York City on Thursday afternoon. The rapper turned entrepreneur partnered with author Robert Greene and wrote ‘The 50th Law’ (similar to Greene’s popular book ‘The 48 Laws of Power‘).
The duo has been promoting the book all week and were even featured on The Today show, video of that is below.

1st of all let me say I can’t beleive people call Jay-Z ugly….
50 looks good.
OK FIFTY YOU HAVE OFFICIALLY PLAYED YOURSELF “OUT”
SIT DOWN NO ONE CARES
PLEASE GET LOST
50 doing the damn thing. I have the 48 laws of Power and will cop this one just because he worked with that author.
i’ll pass. But the Today show interview was cool.
I’ve always loved 50. he’s doing his thing… just been off with the music lately. he seems really professional now a days. a lot of people say he’s selling out but you can’t be acting all ghetto in the business.. lol
Looking good .
HE IS VERY HANDSOME AND JUST HOW I LIKE THEM. ROUGH AND BLACK.
G-G-G-G, G-Unit!!!!!
@ 6 = sellling out – is selling out on his music. his talent. just for $ – not about the ”ghetto business”. His professional. now, but he didn’t have to pack it all up.
Before they ^ get in the business music is all they want,breath and eat. Once they got the $ – they dont give a sh*t anymore. I f only they were put back in their orginal place. They would be pining for it again. funny eh.
@ ERET – he got nothing on jay z. Rubber lips is rubber lips. LOL. please don’t bring jay z money into it. that is what half of the people do on here. mind your own money.stop worrying about his.
funny thing is i was just watchin’ get rich or die tryin’ his come along way…
believe & achieve. He came from the hood – got endorsment deals/music. hmmm. if he can do anyone can… well anyone that can sing/act
Do your thing fiddy! f**k the haters!
50 is a smart businessman you can`t hate on him for that !
50 seems very talented but he uses his talents in the wrong way or should I say he goes to far most of the time. He is very creative ( i love pimping curly ) although he needs a little love or counseling he need to take his talents and put them to good use.
@10 Yeah, thinkin about it, I agree with that!
That’s a smart on Fiddy’s part cause probably ten years from now rap may be a thing of the past.
He’s holding a book and looking like he wants to kill the photographer?!!? What a JOKE! GET OVER THE TOUGH, INTIMIDATING FACADE! Who the hell is your audience??? I doubt that the world of ganster rappers and those who love them are gonna run out and cop this crap. Slap a smile on your face, show a little teeth and you might just sell a book or two. Uuugh!
nobody wants to read what gorillas ghostwriter wrote. he knows robert greene wrote the complete book
he is such a gimmick and a joke. now he is in a suit and wants to get “intellectual”. yea ok. i can stomach him than jayz though. he at least can put a sentence together and appear SOMEWHAT well spoken.
he really looks like a dummy or entertainer monkey next to that dude. all he is missing are the clap cymbals.
kathie griffin needs to take her pill popping botox addicted azz to bed. her sidekick is a loser too. they need to cancel this show. they are so boring and unprofessional.
this is great from a young black man perspective. I heard the book is good. I will definitely pick up a copy.
SUPPORT BLACK ARTS PEOPLE!!!
goddamn…you on welfare or somethin?
Between Jay, 50 & diddy they are so well articulate and intelligent. It’s always a pleasure to watch their interviews.
uhhhhh……50 is not articulate….sorry!!!! He can barely talk.
lol this comment box really makes me laugh.
i will cop that book for sure, 48 laws of power was nice and fif really found a winner with a callab like this.
yall commenting on how he looks (the men) yall homo or some shit?
i see the anger in some of yall, the recession got some of yall mad, cause u not getting what u ustah get?
SEXY!!!!!
WHO IS FIDDY KIDDIN, HE PROLLY HASN’T EVEN READ IT MORE OR LESS WROTE IT…FUCK OUTTA HERE
TO PLAY DEVIL’S ADVOCATE, I MUST SAY I RATHER HEAR ABOUT A GHOSTWRITING RAPPER TURNED AUTHOR THAN HIM BEING SHOT
well this is an unlikely pairing, lol, YT love them some Fiddy and Jigga…I guess green is a universal color
i dont want it.
black people always bring each other down, how the hell is selling out?
What more can 50 Cent tell us about his life? He was shot 9 times, blah blah blah…
Some people are SO ignorant. Whenever black people do something positive like getting an education, carrying themselves with respect and making BIG money, idiots always say they’re selling out.
Why should 50 rely on music sales when they don’t bring a good income in? Instead of wasting the money on mansions and ‘baby mommas’, he’s doing something positive and he still gets bashed.
One step forward and two steps back.
EveryBody On This Blog , Need To Stop Hatin , He is Doing Positive, Music Business Shouln’t be The only Avenue he gets Money From, He Has To Evolve, Wear Diff Hats, He Is Living up To His Full Potential, Yall Niggs Need To Get off These Dam Blog Sites & Make Somethen Of Yaselves, 50 Cud Care Less Whatchall Think , Thats Why He So Sucessful , He Aint Worried bout Them Haters, They Gonn Hate Anyways, Pick up Da Book , & Get ya Knowledge up!
Critiquing 50 isn’t about bringing a brother down. But for real, how you going write this book and be posted up like some “thug” with an expression like he wants to hurt somebody. The contradiction is striking. The critics here are saying come on 50, be smart and professional, but please drop the fake thugged out façade. I think 50 is smart but he’s sending out mixed messages about who he is and who he wants us to believe he is. And, I agree with the person who asked he question about who is 50′s audience. It’s a very legitimate point. Who is this performance of hypermasculinity for anyways?
DROP DEAD HANDSOME!!!!! cant wait to buy and read MR JACKSON BOOK!!
I doubt 50 cent wants you to believe he is anything. He is being him. Oh well if you’re getting mixed messages.
His face is his, and he can do what he wants with it. Instead of staring at him wondering all kinds of things, do you.
What people say about others always reflects what they think about themselves. Just because you care what people think about you, don’t mean 50 cent feels the same way. If he did, he wouldn’t be where he is right now.
He need to stop…he is not relevant.
He is not selling out. Just like he said in the interview, when he began rapping he was in a different time in his life. People change and grow as they get older. He is doing his thing as a mature man. Leave Fifty alone!!
LOL…This dude knows how to play the media like crazy. I think he interviews well, but I wish he’s smile more in photos.
.50 looks good in that suit
Here’s some advice ‘Fiddy’: If you wanna be taken seriously outside of rapping, please stop doing that ‘gangsta scowl’.
lot of ignorant comments being said……william lynch did a good job predicting on how us blacks will keep each other down…… most of the comments prove it….pitiful
is ts that ciara with him in the third picture?
something tells me that sex with 50 is animalistic and off the fuckin hook!
oh yeah, his shoe game is crazy in these pics
*Snicker, Snicker* He looks like he reads like this:
“Thhhhhhhe buh-ho-oy pah-a-layeeed on thhhhhhhe pah-ah-or-or-ch.” (takes deep breath, and wipes the sweat from his brow.)
Just kidding……kinda.
Really though he trips me out throwing that eyebrow up like its going to make him look intelligent.
Just smile dude!
You know, why is it hating because you don’t buy into everything that comes along? Now I understand, it’s one thing to say you won’t be purchasing the book, and then another to say you won’t be buying anything this (insert insult here) does. I understand that by adding insult to a comment, it shifts the meaning, and makes it appear to be negative or “hating”, but everyone does not have to like or endorse everything, whether it’s another African American or not! Just because someone black is doing something, they feel is “positive,” does not always mean it is, and it sure does not entitle you to 100% support. Sheesh, do you think every white person loves Britney Spears?? And if she wrote a book (LOL) do you really believe they’d all jump onboard to get it? Come on, this “hater” crap needs to die and be buried! Since when are we supposed to be mindless sheep who jump on everything that comes along! If you like 50, and you want to purchase this book, more power to you, but don’t you dare try to label all those who choose to pass on it as “haters.” Selah….
50 doing his thing for sure, but damn if that jacket dont look like K-mart material. Dude needs to be rocking a dope fitted suit with all his money lol
50 will do well in the business world because he is low down and dirty. I applaud him for his ability to cross over into the business world because they are sharks.
He has always had great advisors; however, he is still unable to unload his mansion with a club, elevator, basketball court and room for a helicopter. I know the taxes, electricity bills and upkept has to be overwhelming.
Much Luv
This is a sad attempt to make some money. Needless to say I won’t be reading it. NEXT!
is it me, or does he looks like he rides the short bus in the pic holding the book. we already know about you from the movie! Bad timing 50……
50 looks sharp! lol
Congrats to fif on the book, but Is that Ciara in the last picture?????
@#50 i said the same thing. it looks like ciara, but if it were believe me it would have been on every blog. plus the color of her hair. unless it is a wig .
