50 Cent almost was a part of Dr. Dre‘s Super Bowl performance back in 2022 but he says that JAY-Z‘s Roc Nation tried to stop him from being a part of the iconic show.
“[Roc Nation] wanted to leave me out of it. They didn’t want me there,” 50 told The Hollywood Reporter.
“[But] Eminem wouldn’t do it without me. That’s how I ended up on the show because he was not coming if I didn’t do it. When that happens, you go, ‘Damn, so you just lost Eminem because you didn’t bring 50? Damn. All right. Bring 50 then,'” he said. “But if it was up to them, they would not have me there. I’m the surprise. I’m not on the bill at all. But they couldn’t get Em to do it without me.”
Snoop Dogg, Mary J. Blige and Kendrick Lamar also joined Dr. Dre onstage for the Halftime show.
50 and Jay have a long-running feud but it was reignited this year when 50 Cent said on social media that the feds would be going after Jay next after Diddy’s alleged crimes surfaced online.
