Tomorrow, February 6th, marks the 10-year anniversary since the release of 50 Cent’s debut album Get Rich Or Die Tryin’. To celebrate the occasion, MTV News sat down with 50 and discussed the album track-by-track. Did you know “21 Questions” almost didn’t make the cut? Good thing 50 was insistent or else life would have never been the same.
Bonus tracks explained below.

Haha! This mothafucka is crazy…. If you haven’t seen 50’s new video with Snoop & Jeezy, watch it here.
50 Cent, along with his big-named buddies Young Jeezy and Snoop Dogg, star in Fiddy’s video for “Major Distribution.” The Eif Rivera-directed clip contains black leather, weapons glazed in gold and a poor piggy bank that gets smashed (it must have contained racks on racks). The three things that every rap video should consist of. It’s always fresh to see three different artists represent three different US regions and three different styles on one track. Be on the lookout for 50 Cent’s Street King Immortal, now due in Spring.
Sidenote: 50 Cents shuts down the G-Unit reunion with Game rumors. There’s no reunion.

A certain Photoshop enthusiast became viral after having monster media sites such as Mashable and MTV post “revamped” hip-hop album covers with a special twist. Every album on the creator’s tumblr had comedian Aziz Ansari’s face carefully photoshopped on all the artists. Going by the name Emceez Ansari, the face swapper has placed Aziz’s mug on Nas, 50 Cent and A$AP Rocky (shown above). Check below for some of my favorite Aziz artwork and in case you were wondering, this is Aziz Ansari approved.
