Representative Confirms 50 Cent’s Absence from RNC
50 Cent‘s leaning into comparisons between himself and Donald Trump after the former prez survived a shooting, but he won’t be attending or performing in support of Trump at the Republican National Convention … TMZ has learned.
50 Cent’s rep tells us … “He is not attending [the RNC], as he is slated to be in Shreveport preparing for his “Humor and Harmony” festival.” Reports surfaced on Monday declaring 50 would be on stage in Milwaukee to play a gig during the convention, but that was news to his camp … and they quickly denied it.
What made the report believable is the fact 50 invoked Trump during his Saturday night concert in Boston. As we reported, the rapper projected a popular meme — his “Get Rich or Die Tryin” album cover with Trump’s face replacing his — in the screen behind him as he performed “Many Men.”
If ya didn’t know, the song is about 50’s enemies gunning for him.

Mind you, this was just a few hours after the assassination attempt in Pennsylvania — so, 50 Cent was aware by then that folks on social media were drawing the parallel between Trump and him … as 50 famously survived getting shot 9 times back in 2000.
All that being said, 50 Cent’s people say he is NOT booked for an encore at the RNC.
