50 Cent Basks in the Glory of “50 Cent Day” in Connecticut

10/15/07, 4:28 pm EST

Famous Connecticut resident 50 Cent caused a stir in the relatively quiet city of Bridgeport on Friday as mayor John Fabrizi declared it 50 Cent Day and bestowed the MC with the key to the city. 50 posed with a giant check for $25,000 that he donated to community center (”I bet if we put another zero on there, Curtis wouldn’t miss it,” the mayor joked), spoke to a group of high school students about being Fifty (”A lot of times people mistake my confidence for arrogance,” he said) and even granted one young girl’s request for a hug. And what of his “feud” with Kanye West? “His label and my label are both owned by Universal Music Group,” was the reply.

No shit both labels are owned by the same group, that’s common knowledge.
Kudos to RS for slapping the publicity stunt on its cover.
Is RS owned by Universal Music Group too?

“who cares. should change his name to “food stamp”. rap sucks.”

sounds familiar. that’s the second time this person has posted bigoted statements in the last week! some people can’t dislike a certain style of music without making a bigoted statement. When I was out of work, foodstamps saved me and my family’s life. Some people!

Congrats to the man- stop hating on him! Now if he was out there selling drugs or kicking down your mamas’ front door it would be a problem. Show a little love for a change. Well deserved… continue to do positive things for the kids-I’m with the youth center
