    Curtis James Jackson III (born July 6, 1975),[2] better known by his stage name 50 Cent, is an

    American rapper, actor, entrepreneur, investor, record, film, and television producer. Born in
    the South Jamaica neighborhood of the borough of Queens, Jackson began selling drugs at age
    twelve during the 1980s crack epidemic. Although he left drug-dealing to pursue a musical
    career, he was struck by nine bullets in a 2000 shooting. After Jackson released the compilation
    album Guess Who's Back? in 2002, he was discovered by Eminem and signed by Shady
    Records, Aftermath Entertainment and Interscope Records.
    With the aid of Eminem and Dr. Dre (who produced his first major-label album, Get Rich or Die
    Tryin'), Jackson became one of the world's best selling rappers and rose to prominence with East
    Coast hip hop group G-Unit (which he leads de facto). In 2003 he founded G-Unit Records,
    signing his G-Unit associates Young Buck, Lloyd Banks and Tony Yayo. Jackson had similar
    commercial and critical success with his second album, The Massacre, which was released in
    2005. He released his fifth studio album, Animal Ambition, in 2014 and is working on his sixth
    studio album: Street King Immortal, scheduled for release in 2016.
    During his career Jackson has sold over 30 million albums worldwide and won several awards,
    including a Grammy Award, thirteenBillboard Music Awards, six World Music Awards,
    three American Music Awards and four BET Awards.[3] He has pursued an acting career,
    appearing in the semi-autobiographical film Get Rich or Die Tryin' (2005), the Iraq War film Home
    of the Brave (2006) andRighteous Kill (2008). 50 Cent was ranked the sixth-best artist of the
    2000s, the third-best rapper (behind Eminem and Nelly), andGet Rich or Die Tryin' and The
    Massacre were ranked the 12th and 37th best albums of the decade by Billboard.
