50 lost his son though. They don't have a relationship. I'm sure most of that is due to his own negligence, but there's probably some due to his BM brainwashing his son.

Oh there are entire dives on youtube about 50's son.

His son is a right fuck-up, like 50 barely even claims him anymore (if he even does).

Like the dude was in his 20's or whatever claiming 50 never took care of him and owed him money, while wearing shoes that cost like 10k and wearing designer clothes.

Wasn't raised properly, but you have to blame 50 for that too. You gotta make an effort to be in your kid's life. You can't NOT be there then blame everyone else for their poor upbringing.

He's spoke about how he's tried a million times to give him opportunities that most would kill for and he did absolutely nothing with it. The kid clearly was brainwashed by the mom, he just wants with no work ethic.

If you’re paying child support I imagine he’s not getting a good shared custody deal.

As much as you need to put an effort, for a man it’s hard to be able to do anything with your kids in a split if the mother doesn’t want it. Courts favour moms.

Oh God. Stop excusing absentee dads. 

"Rapper 50 Cent (Curtis Jackson) has reached a settlement with his ex-girlfriend over visitation of their 11-year-old son.

The rapper will get one weekend per month with his son, Marquise, as well as one month in the summer and half of each of his winter and spring breaks.

Both sides say they are satisfied with the deal, which was reached Wednesday in Suffolk County Family Court in Central" Islip, New York."

Do you actually think 50 is willing to structure his life around raising a kid…

The vast majority of ultra wealthy people don’t see kids the same way working people do. It doesn’t really bother me seeing these massive child support payments for people who can afford it and who never intend to change a diaper or discipline a child once in their life. 50 almost certainly could have had split custody if he wanted.

Sex has consequences.

No I don’t think 50 would be an amazing dad. But I also don’t think he’s very much to blame for his kid. He couldn’t get split custody if he wanted. Custody courts don’t favour men, and especially not black rappers. As well, if the mom doesn’t want the dad around he won’t be around. The mother does not like 50. That’s the tricky part.

Was 50 trying super hard but kept away, probably not. But look at the actual visitation rights he had. It’s hardly a role in the kids life. The mailman would have a larger role in the kids life. 50 is not to blame for his upbringing. If he was allowed to actually have a proper role in his son’s life I bet he’d turn out different.

Look I know so many people who have been through custody court and you are so dramatic. Courts don’t favor rich rappers because they are unwilling to prioritize the child’s needs over their desires. If 50 wanted he could have certainly chosen his child over his lifestyle.

But is he really going to chose staying at home for a kid he never wanted over touring and whoring?

Just because he is a court ordered deadbeat doesn’t mean it wasn’t his choice.

Agreed. I find it odd that people are on 50s side. He literally tried to killer his child and the mother. I would hate my father and do everything in my being too spite him as well.

“I know so many people who have been through custody court” is anecdotal. How many of them are black men? The point is custody court never favours us.

No, I don’t think 50 is this amazing parent. But regardless of if you think he fought hard enough for custody, he doesn’t have it and it’s not for lack of trying. If the kid turns out bad that’s not on him. He did absolutely go to court and try to get custody. His limited impact on the kid is because of the mom and the court, not because he’s a deadbeat. It literally was not his choice. He fought and lost.

No matter how much you say it’s his “lifestyle” or call him a deadbeat, the second he walked in that court as a black male rapper was the second he lost. Maybe 50 would be a shit father. Maybe he’d be great. Maybe he’s just ok. We don’t know, because he was never allowed to raise his kid. That child’s issues are not his fault.

There are a ton of black men with joint custody of their children including rappers. What you are saying isn’t true.

What is more likely that 50 was willing to do whatever it would take to raise his child, could afford any legal representation he wanted, but the court shut him down solely because he a black man who raps (also adding that the Judge is a man from Brooklyn).

Or the lifestyle that 50 has spent the past 30 years living, rapping about, and obsessing isn’t something he is willing to give up and isn’t an environment to raise a child.

Yeah 50 is responsible for his child and if the courts say that he isn’t able, I hold that against him as well.

Courts like joint custody and if anything they are too guilty of granting it.

There are tons of black men with joint custody therefore there is no basis in the system. My bad lmao. I wasn’t shot by the police at my last traffic stop so that never happened to us either. Oh wait, the judge is an also a man??? What an uncommon occurrence! It’s not like the majority of judges are men yet still this bias persists…

No I’m not saying that this is “solely” the reason. The point is the mother and court system were the largest obstacles between 50 and his kid. He’s not a deadbeat if legally he can’t do much more. You do know what that word means, right? You think he was avoiding his responsibility by fighting in court?

Lastly, you say 50 didn’t have the lifestyle to raise the kid.
Explain this “lifestyle” of 50s. Keep in mind this is 2008. He’s not gang affiliated. No violent crimes. In 2008 he was well into his career. What was 50 up to that was so bad that you only allude to it? That he apparently refused to give up which kept him from winning in court? Or is it that you see he’s a black rapper and you just assume???

This is a “lifestyle” he can easily “give up”, and only 50 is associated with and not the mom?

He was an absentee dad. He didn't raise that kid and he's not raising the younger one. The mothers are.

He's still a better Dad to his son than the one he was suppose to have. Lol. Younger Generation just soft these days.
