50 Cent Files For Bankruptcy Protection

By Patrick Eaton-Robb, July 13, 2015 ABC News

The rapper 50 Cent, known for the album "Get Rich or Die Tryin','" has filed for bankruptcy.

The artist, whose real name is Curtis Jackson III, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Hartford on Monday, days after a jury ordered him to pay $5 million in an invasion-of-privacy lawsuit. He owns a 50,000-square-foot mansion in nearby Farmington.

The filing lists both the assets and liabilities for the rapper and actor as between $10 million and $50 million and indicates his debts are primarily consumer and not business related.

The filing comes after a New York jury on Friday ordered Jackson to pay $5 million to a woman who said he acquired a video she made with her boyfriend, added himself as a crude commentator and posted it online without her permission.

Hillary Clinton Racks Up Rapper Endorsements

By Deena Zaru, May 21, 2015, ClickOrlando.com

CNN) - A growing number of rappers are queuing up plans to make beautiful music with the front-runner Democratic presidential candidate: Hillary Clinton.

An early high-profile endorsement came from Atlanta rapper Waka Flocka Flame, who announced his own candidacy for the 2016 presidential race on 4/20 last month in a video posted by Rolling Stone, promising to legalize marijuana if he became president.

Waka later endorsed Clinton in an interview with MTV News, proclaiming that "A woman could do it. I've seen my momma raise five boys -- that's super hard, so women can do the same s--- that men could do," adding that he might even help Clinton with her campaign if she helps him promote his newest album, "Flockaveli 2."

Chris Rock On Sterling Vs. Larry Elder On Sterling By Larry Elder

Chris Rock On Sterling Vs. Larry Elder On Sterling By Larry Elder

July 02, 2014 2014 BET Awards , 50 Cent 0 Comments
By Larry Elder, July 2, 2014

 Comedian Chris Rock hosted the BET Awards show.

 According to the entertainment publication, Wrap, Rock “skewered” Donald Sterling. Here's what Rock said: 



Actually, Rock “skewered” us. That is, he ridiculed the part of the public “who are surprised that an old guy who doesn't like black people. Is that news?” Rock's perspective on SterlingGate -- that this is much ado about very little -- is almost identical to that of mine. Rock rhetorically asks, “What did he say?”

Rock's question is not unlike the very same question we asked when this matter became a national issue. As I wrote and said, Magic Johnson’s initial advice to Sterling was to “call your lawyer” and do a “deal with girlfriend” to “make this go away.”





People have calmed down. Rapper 50 Cent dismissed the whole thing as a spat between a guy and a girlfriend who “betrayed” him. Here's what Fitty said:

   

Meanwhile, there's the IRS Scandal; VA scandal; the disintegration of the Iraq; Bergdahl scandal; the continued underperformance of the economy; the surge of illegal alien children on our border…

Rapper 50 Cent: Jealous Donald Sterling Was ‘Embarrassed’ And ‘Betrayed’ By Larry Elder

 Ready to call 50 Cent an “Uncle Tom”?

 In an interview with XXL, the rapper gives his politically incorrect take on SterlingGate:

“Donald Sterling, I think, is interesting. To be honest with you, I couldn't get past the concept of looking at an older man talking to a woman that he's in love with and making probably the biggest compromise ever, saying, 'If you like them, be with them, sleep with them, just don't embarrass me."

 What?! No, chest-pounding rant on how “this racist must go!” No call to organize a Washington D.C. “Million Fan March” to chant, “ No justice, no peace”?

Don’t tell President Obama, Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Spike Lee, Adam Silver, the NAACP, the NBA, the media, most of the country and just about the entire “black community.” Move over Clarence Thomas, Alan West, and Herman Cain -- but there may be another an “Uncle Tom” is our midst. His name is Curtis James Jackson III, aka 50 Cent.

 The rapper elaborated: "[Sterling’s] saying to you that, ‘There's other people around, that I’m being embarrassed by, that think and feel the way that I feel.' And now, you got one person that you're pointing to, penalizing for that, when he's actually saying at that point, 'Just don't embarrass me,' meaning, 'There's other people that feel exactly like me here to be embarrassed by it.'"

 To summarize the rapper’s opinion: Old jealous billionaire, who didn’t want to be “embarrassed” by mistress, gets “betrayed” by a woman “he’s in love with.” And for this NBA bans Sterling -- and forces him to sale his team?

 50 Cent resisted giving a self-pitying tirade on Sterling’s alleged “racism,” and refused to join the circus calling for his head. Recall Magic Johnson’s initial advice to Sterling was to “call your lawyer” and do a “deal with girlfriend” to “make this go away.”

Days later, Johnson assumed the role of victim and demanded the ouster of the “racist” Sterling. 50 Cent thinks Magic got it right the first time.

 One poll showed that while 59 percent of whites support a Sterling ban, 77 percent of blacks do so. Given this overwhelming support in the black community for Sterling’s ban and forced sale, how long before someone calls Fitty an “Uncle Tom”?

 Music critics say the rapper, an ex-drug dealer who was reportedly once shot nine times, possesses “street cred.” After Fitty’s bold against-the-tsunami-of-public opinion stance on Sterling, he’ll need it.
