Despite having a studio album, which is set for release next month, Queens rapper 50 Cent recently made headlines for something other than his music. Earlier this month, 50 Cent was asked to throw the first pitch at a Mets game and ended up throwing the baseball “20 feet wide of home plate,” according to USA Today.
While appearing on “Good Morning America” this week, 50 Cent says he received criticism for the pitch he says “slipped” from an unexpected source. He also added that he’ll be back at City Field on June 14 for a show and has no plans on throwing the first pitch.
“You know, I actually got pulled over by New York City police,” he said during his television appearance. “They pulled me over in my car. And they was like—He said, he pulled me over, I said ‘I got my license, right.’ Cause I was a little nervous as soon as he pulled me over. I was like ‘Aw, what did I do?’ And then he said ‘You know that pitch was terrible.’ He didn’t give me no ticket, no nothing. He said ‘Just go ‘head. Just go ‘head. I don’t wanna mess up your day. I’m just saying you made me laugh’…It slipped…I’ll be back on the mound though. Performing in City Field on June 14…I’m not a professional pitcher. I make music.”
With Animal Ambition due out in a matter of days, 50 Cent also took some time to speak on his fifth studio album.
“I have to create a concept to start to write it,” he said. “Cause I had a lot of things change in my life since the first album. And with this project I chose prosperity because of the success that I’ve had in my career. And it’s a lot of different portions conceptually that you could use. Like it’s envy and jealousy connected to it. So, it’s the darker side of prosperity. And then you have people that develop a sense of entitlement at points. And you want to get all that energy across because I’ve experienced all of those things in that period of time.”
Animal Ambition is slated for release on June 3, days after 50 Cent’s scheduled performance at this year’s Summer Jam music festival.

I feel like that’s such an underrated diss from 50, he roasted him.
Aww clickbait, you got me
yeah we know you like to talk to the cops. remember when you snitched on murda inc. fuckin coward
Funny pitch
Hahaha. “It slipped.” Nah, he did it on purpose, lol. It blew up jut as planned. He got shot 9 times but can’t throw a baseball, yeah right. lol
Look up the video from TMZ of him throwing fine in the bullpen before that. Definitely planned
So 5-0 pulled 5-0 over…
What cops pulling over cops now?
who did 50 cent handcuff or arrest?
i seen rick ross in uniform getting an award for perfect attendance and seen the records that he went to school to study criminal justice and become a law man but nothing about 50… hmmmm
Rick Ross took an oath to shoot any inmate trying to escape from the prison he was employed at. He said he would shoot an young black man who got locked up for selling yayo in Miami and trying to get out of that concrete box and see his family. Fuck nigga shit.
I thought the cop pulled him over for beating up Shaniqua
gotta wonder why she never called the police back then when it happened but now she wanna talk about when her child support bout to get cut off!
This nigguh lying man. Aint no one pulled him over.
What wouldnt this idiot do to get some buzz for Anal Flopbition?
First the cheap shot at Troy Ave.
Then the sissy pitch….
Now these lies…..They worst thing is still no buzz for the album….GAAAADDDAAAAMNNN. U was the man homie….back in 03 wtf happened to u curtis?
wasnt no cheap shots at troy ave he was speaking the truth and if it was a shot at anyone it was yayo and banks lazy asses.
bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbUMMMMMMMMMMMMM ASS DUDE HORRIBLE DAD!!! sTILL MURDAAAAAAAAAAAA FAN STILL JA RULE FAN GOT NO LOVE FOR THIS SNITCHY CENT
CHECK OUT JA RULE’S HOTTEST SONG PRAY FOR THE DAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY PLEASE BELIEVE YOU WILL NOT BE DISSPAPOINTED! CHECK IT OUT ON ITUNES OR YOUTUBE THE RULE COMEBACK IS COMING
Fiddy should’ve never blew. His original style was dope because the pain and hunger was real in his voice. Now it’s gone and so is his appeal.
50 does a great job catering to white people but I doubt they will support his album without Eminem on it so he wil flop terribly despite being in the headlines all day every day.
his career went the same way the ball did, all the way left!!
yet, you were never on the field, what does that say about your career “chad”
5-0…isnt that the slang word for PO-PO?
by the time lingo reaches u it’s alredy played out so no, not anymore. no one use that on the streets mister internet
time? man….’Hawaii Five-O’ was the 60s, po-po was the 90s, they still say ebonics, Romney with a bunch of kids rapping “who let the dogs out”, lol
why they hate Lord Jamar so much, that guest, outsider name is a harsh reality for them
50 stay losing nowadays. First he wanna claim that when a nigga don’t sell like him they wack. Now, especially now, when HE don’t sell he still the victor because of…whatever.
His old boss still sells, why can’t he? Oh, maybe cause he was a once shot novelty. The appeal is over for him and he only has his loyals to sell to. Everyone else is like, “You know what he ain’t all that nice for real. Fuck this nigga.”
Facts, nigga. Eat it.
Call me a hater if you want. But the numbers won’t lie. Jay just did a mill…AFTER the whole Samsung deal. 50 won’t go gold. Bet that.
Some cacs in Ireland make up for 90% of 50’s fanbase nowadays.
“His old boss still sells, why can’t he?”
You can’t compare him to EMinem, the best selling rapper alive who also happens to have white skin.
Why don’t you compare his career to Nelly or Ja Rule who were hot back then just like him but ain’t doing shit now and can’t sell 30k.
this nigga got shot by a blindass 14 years ago and yall still talking about it like it just happened. that proves he aint nothing but a gimmick rapper. what’s the next thing we can talk about nigga? nothing cuz u aint got no talent. if i broke my leg 20 years ago u think i’d still be bugging girls for pity fucks? if i was curtis then yes
Wife beater. That what Curtis is.
So i wanna hear about beating up women in ur lyrics. Dont talk about u punching a dude or letting em clips off….naaaawwww we dont bliv u Curtis. U need more people.
Tell us about beating up baby mama 1 and 2…keep it real Curtis.
how can you be a wife beater if you were never married? Why didn’t Shaniqua call the cops if he was beating her up like she claims? Doesn’t add up!
remind you, that’s a male talking that gossip like a park bench hoe
Daaaammmnnnnn, hoooooomieeeeeeeeeeeee
In high school you was the maaaaaaaaaaan, hooooooooomieeeeeeee
The fuck happened to you?
when you were in high school @Wanskta 50 cent was probly just releasing his first album…right…well since then hes made over 100 million just off da water, went platium twice and gold once, released over 20 movies, whiped a couple rappers asses(gunplay)and still putting out better music than mmg.
so yeah…thats what happened to fiddy cent bitch
gUnit
what u goin say when Curtis first week sales comes out…?
Oh he already put out videos to every song so u alrey heard the album just as a leak.
56,000 frst wk…..remember that.
he already won this rap shit, he got nothing left to prove.
naw mo like 556,000
The cop should have tased him.
“You can’t compare him to EMinem, the best selling rapper alive who also happens to have white skin.
Why don’t you compare his career to Nelly or Ja Rule who were hot back then just like him but ain’t doing shit now and can’t sell 30k.”
^ spoken like a true hip hop fan
“50 does a great job catering to white people but I doubt they will support his album without Eminem on it so he wil flop terribly despite being in the headlines all day every day”
^ but the pitch was for the Mets, a team with a dense and diversified fanbase in an international city
and all of those Eminem appearances ARE NOT HIS HIT SONGS, you talking smack, get a better argument
