A high-octane experience

Since kicking off the tour in July of last year, 50 Cent has crisscrossed countless cities worldwide, leaving audiences in awe. His high-octane shows feature special guests, explosive energy, and a level of production that sets him apart. Tony Yayo, who joined the tour as a supporting act, praised 50 Cent’s dedication and generosity. In an interview with VladTV, Yayo revealed that 50 Cent funded the entire production himself, ensuring that everyone on his team was well taken care of.

A testament to 50 Cent’s iconic status

"His merch is in the millions. He’s an icon, Yayo described. You can ask anyone—the people that ran the tour from Live Nation—they’ll tell you, Your favorite rapper can’t do what 50 just did."
