Inside award-winning rapper 50 Cent’s fleet of supercars
THE JAW-DROPPING car collection of award-winning rapper 50 Cent has been revealed.
With a net worth of around £30million, it’s no surprise that the American rapper – real name Curtis James Jackson – has an impressive selection of cars in his garage.
But the rapper hasn’t had an easy life; his mother was a drug dealer, and his father was absent through his childhood.
So Curtis was raised by her grandmother in the Queens’ South Jamaica neighbourhood in New York.
In 1994, he was caught with drugs and guns and received a three to nine year prison sentence – but only served six months in a boot camp, CQ reports.
In the same year, he adopted the name 50 Cent .
Nine years later, he released his debut album, “Get Rich Or Die Tryin,” which became a smash it.
Away from music, he’s a petrolhead and has in his garage the most expensive and luxurious cars currently on the market.
Here we have selected the best cars in his eye-watering car collection.
Mercedes G500 (2018)
This supercar is one of the most popular among celebrities – and Curtis bought his latest G500 for his 43rd birthday.
Originally developed as a military vehicle, it was first made available to the public way back in 1979.
The G550 model was first produced in 2009 and offers a meaty 5.5 litre V8 that puts out around 400bhp.
Rolls-Royce Cullinan
Weighing in at 2.6 tonnes, it’s a good job the Rolls-Royce doesn’t lack power.
Its 6.75-litre twin turbo V12 engine means the giant motor is still capable of hitting 62mph in five seconds, with a top speed of 155mph.
50 cent’s had several Rollers over the years, including a Wraith and a Phantom.
Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster
The Lamborghini Aventador is a stunning looking machine.
Under the bonnet is a 740hp V12 engine which means you’ve got to have your wits about you if you take it for a spin.
Other celebrity Lambo owners include, Nikki Minaj, Kanye West, Chris Brown, and Sean “P.Diddy” Combs.
Bentley Mulsanne
Curtis bought his second Mulsanne a couple of years ago, making it one of the last off the Crewe production line.
Full of luxurious touches, the Mulsanne is still super quick – top speed is 190mph, while it can blast from 0-60mph in just 4.8 seconds.
Bugatti Chiron
50 Cent treated himself to possibly one of the greatest cars ever made back in 2019.
The Chiron includes an 8.0-litre quad-turbocharged W16, producing a jaw-dropping 1,500hp.
Capable of a 267mph top speed in ‘basic’ form, the Super Sport version actually topped the 300mph mark.
Maserati MC12
Maserati originally built just 50 road-going MC12s as homologation specials for the FIA GT Championship.
And the MC12 remains the fastest Maserati road car ever made, with a top speed exceeding 200mph.
The technology of the MC12 was based on the Ferrari Enzo model, though big changes were made to the engine, chassis and aerodynamics.
This comes after treble-winner Jack Grealish’s stunning car collection, including a Lamborghini Urus worth £200k, was revealed.
Plus, BBC presenter James May’s jaw-dropping collection, including a Rolls Royce and Bentley, was also revealed.
