If you've never been a true fan, then I agree, but if you've been a fan since 99, and know about dude, then those know that 50 has always been street and book smart. Also, he's always remained humble no matter in what situation he's gone through in life.
This is deep. All the ungrateful teens/young adults should hear this cause this is game changing. 50 set his son up to become very rich off selling sneakers only for a bitter Bm to get in the ear of his son. I pray that any stained relationship between fathers & sons can be healed.
Damn bra y’all made 3 comments juss cuz this man shared he grew up in the hood? Damn😭 I understand why it can be hard to share that you’ve been adopted these days
As parents that never change when you have children or a child especially as a mother. I too experience this with my oldest son but my prayers never stop at the mere fact that one day he will see beyond the brokenness that distorts his vision into reality. After a few years of not speaking or wasn't on good terms my prayers has been answered. We are now rebuilding a new relationship, where past mistakes won't be at the forefront. I am teaching him the importance of grace and forgiveness
This hits me hard as a parent of adult children who were influenced heavily by their mother who didn't want the same things for them that I did. I talked to them, gave them all the game I could but it wasn't enough apparently. Fellas, be careful who you have kids with.
My brother I'm living this right now.. Money is not the only way to raise a child.. Let's be real it's not like you can't raise children on bare minimum. It's about preparing and giving life lessons morals and values. To structure and cut time off a little ones life of drifting.. Money isn't real it only look like it.. (Dad from BLOW)
I was once Marquis, didn’t appreciate what my dad did. I only harped one what he should have done. I had to come to the realization that my mother was the problem and not the Saint I anointed her to be. It was a gut wrenching moment and a pivotal time of my life. Staring at a looming divorce on the horizon, facing my shortcomings as a man. You knew who was by my side with a beer and a blunt, ole faithful Pop dukes was there telling me I knew you see the light one day. Pops has passed since, mom won’t talk to me, sisters won’t talk to me. But I got my Uncle/Big brother and we’re being better Men and Dads. I got faith in that young man. I feel bad for his mom when that vail gets lifted and he sees her for who she is. God Bless 50 and his family
Go talk to your sister and mom bro some parents don’t realize they hurt their kids while trying to help I don’t know the situation. But my mon thought she was helping me but she was actually hurting me but she tried to be a parent that’s all I can ask for
The sharing 50 did was humility and healing of disappointment and pain. I have an estranged son that didn't have those things and he chose the streets. darn if you do, damn if you don't. God is there for me thru All seasons. He can be there for you too. Try Him, He is waiting...
Having this man as a father, you've got a leg up financially and game wise. Will be a very sad day for him when he realizes his father was handing him the keys to manhood and freedom, while his mother was using emotion and attachment to further limit and control him.
Everything 50 said is confirmed by the recent video of the kid yelling 6700 dollars. He needs to humble himself....and learn from his dad. Fifty done died and came back
this continues to show no matter how much money you have the voice of your father the voice of a strong masculine figure that understands the world is extremely key in the world, in life
@@inyouremomsass929 50 was getting heat from the black community for his relationship with his son. Look now the red pill is more popular and monosphere exposing these toxic women now people call out 50 son smh. Damage is already done.
With all the beef 50 had he could of made sure his bm and son was super straight especially when she held you down when you ain’t have shit and Rick Ross try to pay here to shit on 50 but she didn’t how many of y’all baby moms turning that bag down from Rick Ross I know mine wouldn’t lol
@@Magneto4191 6700 a month is straight as a mf'er bro... 😂 If I could work full time AND hey a free 6700 I'd be VERY straight. You could put thousands in the market a month and have a SOLID dividend portfolio or you could even buy a house every few months and build a rental empire and be a millionaire in line 6-7 years EASY. Shoot 6700 is still steep! That's entitled bs, child support isn't even relevant in modern times.
The way 50 was breaking down the profit business when was talking buying the rest those shoes just so marquise can get some type of business to jump is father of the year type ish and money moves type ish as well 💪🏿💪🏿💯💯💯
This is by far the most important & relevant audio/YT clip I have listened to all year...this is uplifting & directional as we raise our kids...thanx 50,thanx a million...
Why not believe this could happen? We have a horrible problem in the community and fifty how great of a Black parent and father he is. Black woman are out of control. It breaks my heart hearing this story.
After listening to this I didn’t expect 50 to have a soft spot. I don’t mean it condescendingly because being a fan since I was a kid that image of 50 I grew up with along with being a businessman and entrepreneur just stuck with me. Kind of feel bad that his own blood betrayed him emotionally and financially, yet rolled with the punches only in the hopes Marques reaches his full potential.
I can sense the hurt and dissapointment in 50's voice. He really tried to influence his son to be a better man but his son let his toxic mother to influence him and hence he is so entitled just like his mother. I pray I raise my kids well as I have been for many more years and make them create opportunities for themselves that will makhbthem live a healthy and wealthy life.

Marquis is Get Rich Without Trying 😆 Fif just wants to be a good father but his son has a grudge against him. You really see how forgiving 50 is to him.
I am a father too & I have a level of understanding Mr. Jackson. In my opinion, the youth associates material gifts as a form of true love rather than receiving positive advice from their elders that may be priceless some instances.

Because he threw a pair of Jordan's at him and expected his son to bow down to him instead of realizing he abandoned and disowned his son...so his son is rightfully resentful.
PUT THIS SHIT IN REPEAT 50!!! This should just go on repeat not just for the world to hear 50 side. But for all these other young men, as well as grown up men also who never learn these fundamentals. 50 you have always dropped Jen’s cause you speak the truth from the heart and you a real ass dude. #GETTHESTRAP. 😅
I don’t think so! His huge ego is his issue. He’s known to be petty and messy. Why bring this to social media instead of trying to resolve the issue with your son. It doesn’t matter what we think or speculate. The only thing that matters is family, especially a father and son.
@@ballgame3273 probably he has tried many times behind the curtains bit never worked out . Sometimes you have to expose people especially when these young kids.
This was captivating. This man is a brilliant story teller. I don't understand women who deliberately and intentionally destroy their own children in an effort to spite the father. The son on the other hand keeps allowing himself to be used by everyone, and he turns his back on the one man who has his best interest at heart.
Well said my brother! All we can do is show them the way, it's up to them to pick up the mantle and put that work in. But they have to first humble themselves and realize they don't know it all and life's rewards come from real work...
I tell you I have been all wrong about 50 Cent. This man wanted the best for his son. It's his baby mama that was in the way of Marquise learning how to be a man and how to support himself. I really hope that Marquise listens or reads his dad's book and come to realize that his dad wants the very best for him.
50 preaching to the choir. I bought a house for my at the time, 32 yr old daughter and my 4 yr old grandson. She was almost in tears because she didn't like the kitchen cabinet doors. I knew my princess was spoiled, but her behavior made me realize how goddam entitled her crazy ass was!😲
But whose fault is it. Because of our mindset we don’t want our children to experience what we experienced. What we experienced probably made us better people. Very sad when we ruin our children unintentionally..
@@favourites9106 There are many who were "spoiled". My siblings would tell you I was spoiled. A custodial parent's influence, particularly that of a mother, is a lot more powerful than what's right.
I feel sorry for 50. Everyone he ever helped let him down, from his artists to his own kid. I wish I had a mentor who could finance me on business. I'd grab that opportunity with both hands.
Wow. That was strong word from a loving father. All I can say to that is don’t give up on him. Remember them young boys, not growing up around the father can be stubborn and hardheaded at times just like you 50. stay on him, keep the communication lines open, but definitely don’t be soft on him. He’s a young man, he will come around.
50 is a super smart guy. I felt that ending to the core, holy shit 500mill to 1Bill revenue with 50s name pushing the business it would probably be bigger than that.
You NEVER know what people are going through. I’m glad I never spoke on this because I would have been big wrong. I hope all y’all eventually get healing.
This is deep. Hope these two reunite and are able to bond with one another at some point. It’s clear 50 is hurt by his sons actions. He just knows how to control his emotions.
Dam, 50 has a strong spirit that will always find the way. I pray I don’t go through this with my kids mother. Good dads know who the good dads are! We just got to keep doing what we do no matter how much pain we are dealing with.
Marquise was raised by his mom, he acts like her and thinks like her. She destroyed this young man’s life. 50 would’ve made this kid one of the youngest business man ever.
I'm here and is 6700 plus likes already go figure. 50 is brilliant. I plan on listening to the whole audio book so far it's the real deal. I think what puts" RAP" in a class of it's own is fact that u can put words together and change the world absolutely amazing thank GOD for rap my brother's and sister's peace.
This is very insightful for fathers and sons to understand the mind of a real man. What 50cent is expressing is the mind of a father that has love for his son and the proper nourishment to instill the tools of success to his off spring. This knowledge many mothers will never understand and expresses the importance of letting their kids fathers be men to strengthen the knowledge and success within their kids. It's amazing how the mother does not understand her way of dealing with the son is destructive at this point in his journey in life. A man must not be a cub forever and a lion must rise up away from the nest. Moma, it's not about hurting you it's about his dad making a strong successful man that's able to make it on his own. I salut you 50 and continue to speak the knowledge.
Very profound. I thank 50 for sharing this. Can’t be easy sharing your family business like that. A lot of rich people like Buffett don’t give their kids anything but a college education. If you want it, get it out the mud.
@MISTER MISTER What are you speaking about? So with the family's connection can't they start an Equity Firm with seed capital from "Warren mother-f'n Buffet" as the ultimate stamp? Achieving success by oneself is way more fulfilling than been handed it. That what these wealthy businessmen try to imbue in their kids, that sole fact which keeps any businessman going.
Sting the musician isnt giving his money to his children either😮 I found that shocking. And he said it so proudly. I dont even think Eminems girls receive(d) much bc someone asked one of them if she is rich and she said “My dads money is his money.” And they still work and shop at regular stores and live in middle to upper-middle class homes. All of that is very shocking to me. I wish Marquise was just as independent he’d be less miserable. I cant imagine still hanging on to my parents like that and aint no way i’d date a guy screaming at his father for more coins
Know it's not power written by someone else how you going to say it's build off him and he's son when he never said it was stop making up your own shit 🤔🤔🤔
@@zayzuess Facts and it pisses me off because most of us would be greatful to be in his postition but he doesn't see how blessed he is. I wonder if 50 included or left him outta his "WILL"
I am a 69 year young black lady and this does me Proud 50…God is watching you! Wake up young Son and realize your Mother at some point loved this man and he didn’t go low on you as we all KNOW he can, he got nothing but love for you Baby!
I went thru this with my daughter she is 14 she got to the point were she would disrespect me on the daily my daughter even wanted me on child support when I took care of her with no excuses.i got to the point like look your way not working call me when you can treat me like a person well her mom was behind all of this and encouraged her to verbally attack me I never disrespect them I simply stop answering my phone then I was getting very nasty text messages i was hurt but ignored them I have three other kids I focus on I'm a single dad of one so I'm pretty busy and still positive I do think about my daughter but there is no communication.
Sorry to hear that. And it's ok to not have communication with your daughter because the disrespect became too much to bare and you had to let her go and live her life. Focus on your health, your other children and enjoy life. You played your part my man. All the best.
Man. I believe you telling the truth 50. Your son don’t realize it’s people out here like me that needs financial advice. Not the money just the advice and he has an almost genius financial guru for a father. It’s lonely at the bottom tryna come up yet you don’t know who to trust and have NOBODY that can’t help you succeed. Real talk my mans you did your part. Much respect and love.
I got a feeling Marquise decided to keep the shoes for himself to wear instead of selling them. And if his dad asks what happened, I can see him saying, “Nobody wanted to buy those sneakers because they weren’t the newest ones, the ones you gave me were some BS.”
My thoughts exactly. Funny with people lol... "You never miss your water until you're well runs dry! Seems like Marquis is getting a reality check that shit is about to get real... really real!
that’s the problem tho. everybody want the man to be the sole provider but with that comes family neglect and you basically have to marry your career to keep everyone happy. you cannot have it both ways. you either want rich dad that works too much or poor dad that spends alotta time with you but can’t provide.
With a good mother . The father doesn't have to be home all the time. I barely saw my dad. But mum kept it real and would whoop your ass when you mess up.
I owe this man an Apology. I used to think he was tripping for turning his back on his own son. But time revealed that 50 wasn’t the bad guy that I thought he was. In fact I now see that he’s a man who would go all out for you and put you in position to change your whole life if he sees you as his friend or family and you are loyal to him. I just confused the fact that if you choose to go against him then he is more merciless than the average person can be, With him being the “Bad Guy”. But I was wrong and I owe him an Apology. But even more importantly…………… His SON Owes him an Apology.
Marquise says $80k is poverty, way more than what Electrical Engineers make in a year and more than the average U.S household income of $45k-$50k. That child is lost! 🤦
I believe 50 is a down to earth guy despite his success and he wanted to give his son just enough tools and confort to make it big by himself but the mother failed the kid
This right here was deeper than any song he ever wrote🙏🏿
I’m in tears
Is that a compliment? That's just mean lol

50 preaching to the choir. I bought a house for my at the time, 32 yr old daughter and my 4 yr old grandson. She was almost in tears because she didn't like the kitchen cabinet doors. I knew my princess was spoiled, but her behavior made me realize how goddam entitled her crazy ass was!😲
But whose fault is it.
Because of our mindset we don’t want our children to experience what we experienced.
What we experienced probably made us better people.
Very sad when we ruin our children unintentionally..
@@favourites9106 There are many who were "spoiled". My siblings would tell you I was spoiled. A custodial parent's influence, particularly that of a mother, is a lot more powerful than what's right.
This is why when I have a kid, imma want him/her to earn something by getting good grades or doing something importantly good.
I feel sorry for 50. Everyone he ever helped let him down, from his artists to his own kid. I wish I had a mentor who could finance me on business. I'd grab that opportunity with both hands.
Wow. That was strong word from a loving father. All I can say to that is don’t give up on him. Remember them young boys, not growing up around the father can be stubborn and hardheaded at times just like you 50. stay on him, keep the communication lines open, but definitely don’t be soft on him. He’s a young man, he will come around.
This is a lie. Then young boys raised by single BLACK mammies can be stubborn you mean.
This really hurts hearing this story!!! The entitlement is just sickening!!!!
I will go through this when my daughter grows up.. never blame yourself for how selfish someone else can be..
I luv how 50 has emulated Prodigy with this reading. Respect 🙏💯💪
50 is a super smart guy. I felt that ending to the core, holy shit 500mill to 1Bill revenue with 50s name pushing the business it would probably be bigger than that.
You NEVER know what people are going through. I’m glad I never spoke on this because I would have been big wrong. I hope all y’all eventually get healing.
This is deep. Hope these two reunite and are able to bond with one another at some point. It’s clear 50 is hurt by his sons actions. He just knows how to control his emotions.
Dam, 50 has a strong spirit that will always find the way. I pray I don’t go through this with my kids mother. Good dads know who the good dads are!
We just got to keep doing what we do no matter how much pain we are dealing with.
Beautiful Lesson of Love..We love you 50..
Marquise was raised by his mom, he acts like her and thinks like her. She destroyed this young man’s life. 50 would’ve made this kid one of the youngest business man ever.
Yep
And she supported the whole household on child support from 50…
50, I feel your pain, it's sad. But his mother gave him Roots, now you must give him Wings. I'm hopeful for the both of you.
@@eleanorcohen4418 she literally created a mess. Why is it his problem to fix it?
It’s beyond broken
@@michaelrogers9720 Mr. Rogers, I didn't say it was his problem to fix.
I stand with 50💜🤘
His voice is so therapeutic
This was a cool side of 50 to hear. But hard times always make a certain type of good man 👊 respect
I'm here and is 6700 plus likes already go figure. 50 is brilliant. I plan on listening to the whole audio book so far it's the real deal. I think what puts" RAP" in a class of it's own is fact that u can put words together and change the world absolutely amazing thank GOD for rap my brother's and sister's peace.
50cent: get rich or die trying
Marquis : get rich without trying
Man 50 is such a real dude Man U respect this nigga to the fullest 💪🏿
I admire you so much 50 cents ❤ and feel for you re ur son 💙 ❤ 💗
This is very insightful for fathers and sons to understand the mind of a real man. What 50cent is expressing is the mind of a father that has love for his son and the proper nourishment to instill the tools of success to his off spring. This knowledge many mothers will never understand and expresses the importance of letting their kids fathers be men to strengthen the knowledge and success within their kids. It's amazing how the mother does not understand her way of dealing with the son is destructive at this point in his journey in life. A man must not be a cub forever and a lion must rise up away from the nest. Moma, it's not about hurting you it's about his dad making a strong successful man that's able to make it on his own. I salut you 50 and continue to speak the knowledge.
these bitter moms dont gaf about Fathers love for his. They just see him as a sperm donor ATM
Fif is a great dad you can tell he got love for him still....
I hope that 50 and Marquise reconcile.
I will keep them both in prayer.
I thunk it should take time, if i was 50 I wouldn't trust him around me....He'd prolly try to kill 50 for an inheritance
Fif is not going to let him near him. Once a snake 🐍 always a snake 🐍. You taking pictures with the opps that's a done deal.
Oh yes this hits hard. Alot of Good Fathers are going through this with Bitter Baby Mama's.
Very profound. I thank 50 for sharing this. Can’t be easy sharing your family business like that. A lot of rich people like Buffett don’t give their kids anything but a college education. If you want it, get it out the mud.
@MISTER MISTER What are you speaking about?
So with the family's connection can't they start an Equity Firm with seed capital from "Warren mother-f'n Buffet" as the ultimate stamp?
Achieving success by oneself is way more fulfilling than been handed it.
That what these wealthy businessmen try to imbue in their kids, that sole fact which keeps any businessman going.
@MISTER MISTER Huh I thought we were speaking about Buffet and his fam? Never learnt that he or his kids were giving something away anywhere. 🤷♂️
Sting the musician isnt giving his money to his children either😮 I found that shocking. And he said it so proudly. I dont even think Eminems girls receive(d) much bc someone asked one of them if she is rich and she said “My dads money is his money.” And they still work and shop at regular stores and live in middle to upper-middle class homes. All of that is very shocking to me. I wish Marquise was just as independent he’d be less miserable. I cant imagine still hanging on to my parents like that and aint no way i’d date a guy screaming at his father for more coins
So powerful, I’m restarting my audible subscription today.
Dam that's deep 😕 I see why 50 is the way he is
I've always been a 50 Cent fan. I didn't know the man but I just liked the dude from day. Now he has gain a lot more respect
When you realize the story of 50 and marquise is the story of ghost and Tariq this shit hit different 🥴
Fr! This is actually sad kid has no drive almost the opposite of his dad smh
Know it's not power written by someone else how you going to say it's build off him and he's son when he never said it was stop making up your own shit 🤔🤔🤔
@@zayzuess Facts and it pisses me off because most of us would be greatful to be in his postition but he doesn't see how blessed he is. I wonder if 50 included or left him outta his "WILL"
That's why he keep him away.
The best of 50cent... Respect sir
This man is a genius he knows anything he says can implicate him so he's very careful about how he says things and recalls stories
I am a 69 year young black lady and this does me Proud 50…God is watching you! Wake up young Son and realize your Mother at some point loved this man and he didn’t go low on you as we all KNOW he can, he got nothing but love for you Baby!
I went thru this with my daughter she is 14 she got to the point were she would disrespect me on the daily my daughter even wanted me on child support when I took care of her with no excuses.i got to the point like look your way not working call me when you can treat me like a person well her mom was behind all of this and encouraged her to verbally attack me I never disrespect them I simply stop answering my phone then I was getting very nasty text messages i was hurt but ignored them I have three other kids I focus on I'm a single dad of one so I'm pretty busy and still positive I do think about my daughter but there is no communication.
Sorry to hear that my man
Sorry to hear that. And it's ok to not have communication with your daughter because the disrespect became too much to bare and you had to let her go and live her life. Focus on your health, your other children and enjoy life. You played your part my man. All the best.
You failed you should b in prison n the girl should be pushing 💐.
@@younglion4441 your mother failed when she birthed your defective ass
@younglion SHUT UP U TROLL! Get it together! Mind ya mouth and ya behavior!
This breaks my heart.....💔💔💔💔
Man the sad part is, I’m going through the same thing with my entitled son and it’s very stressful
Man. I believe you telling the truth 50. Your son don’t realize it’s people out here like me that needs financial advice. Not the money just the advice and he has an almost genius financial guru for a father. It’s lonely at the bottom tryna come up yet you don’t know who to trust and have NOBODY that can’t help you succeed. Real talk my mans you did your part. Much respect and love.
I got a feeling Marquise decided to keep the shoes for himself to wear instead of selling them. And if his dad asks what happened, I can see him saying, “Nobody wanted to buy those sneakers because they weren’t the newest ones, the ones you gave me were some BS.”
My thoughts exactly. Funny with people lol... "You never miss your water until you're well runs dry! Seems like Marquis is getting a reality check that shit is about to get real... really real!
Much respect 🙌
As a 48 yr man who was adopted on my dads side, I can say this whole heartily. Money can not replace time spent! Kids need involved parents!!
that’s the problem tho. everybody want the man to be the sole provider but with that comes family neglect and you basically have to marry your career to keep everyone happy. you cannot have it both ways. you either want rich dad that works too much or poor dad that spends alotta time with you but can’t provide.
You don't get it the man is a hustler he's not gonna be there all the time
@@michael567jober facts mfs think this a Cosby show sitcom
@@michael567jober ❤ 100%
With a good mother . The father doesn't have to be home all the time. I barely saw my dad. But mum kept it real and would whoop your ass when you mess up.
Awww .. listening to this was very emotional to me . I will get the hard copy
I owe this man an Apology. I used to think he was tripping for turning his back on his own son. But time revealed that 50 wasn’t the bad guy that I thought he was. In fact I now see that he’s a man who would go all out for you and put you in position to change your whole life if he sees you as his friend or family and you are loyal to him. I just confused the fact that if you choose to go against him then he is more merciless than the average person can be, With him being the “Bad Guy”. But I was wrong and I owe him an Apology. But even more importantly……………
His SON Owes him an Apology.
@MISTER MISTER Just a hypothetical my Nigga. Relax.
Marquise says $80k is poverty, way more than what Electrical Engineers make in a year and more than the average U.S household income of $45k-$50k.
That child is lost! 🤦
You are so right sweetie❤. Praying for him
Dang, curtis, I have a lot of respect for you. You are a good dad!
Ts almost made me cry
The apple fell from the tree and kept rolling and rolling and rolling!! Lmao!!!
Yoink 😭
This was so deep! This bought tears to my eyes! I dint have money like 50 but I can relate!
I believe 50 is a down to earth guy despite his success and he wanted to give his son just enough tools and confort to make it big by himself but the mother failed the kid
