Cam’ron showed he’s no longer angry at “Cuuurtis,” as he recently offered 50 Cent a hearty congratulatory hug on the G-Unit general’s newly-announced Las Vegas residency, which will reportedly pay him $15 million.
The two rappers, who had a famously long-running beef in the late aughts and early 2010s, ran into each other backstage on Thursday (October 24) at UnitedMasters SelectCon in New York City. In addition to Cam and Fif’, the conference also featured Joe Budden and Cleotrapa alongside United Masters founder and CEO Steve Stoute.

50 Cent’s first-ever Vegas residency, titled ‘In Da Club,’ was announced on October 15. The residency consists of six shows at PH Live, a venue inside of Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino, in late December and early January, including one on New Year’s Eve.
50 billed the shows, for which TMZsays he’ll be earning $15 million, as “an experience.”

“You don’t wanna miss this!” he wrote on Instagram.
I always bring the energy, and Las Vegas is the perfect spot to create an unforgettable experience for my fans,” 50 said in a statement, per Vegas’ News 3. “We’re talking big production, surprises, and the ultimate New Year’s Eve party for my Vegas residency.”

The star actually teased the possibility of a Sin City residency last month in a profile in Haute Living.
At first he seemed skeptical when presented with the possibility.
“How much of a residency can I commit to when I have multiple film projects coming?” he asked. “Not just the television stuff, but opportunities for me to star in feature films, too. I’m having success in film; my career in television mirrors my music career.
“My first television show [Power] is the largest show on the network; I’m able to develop spinoff shows and turn this into a 10-year anniversary, and it’s now the number one program in African American and Latino households. So, [now in particular] I have to seriously balance out and schedule things.”

But when the writer mentioned that a typical model for Vegas residencies is to have shows spaced out weeks or months apart from each other, Fif’ changed his tune.
“That would actually be fun; that would work for me to do it that way,” he responded.
