Watch 50 Cent Talk About His Fear After Being Shot (Video)

What's the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the name 50 Cent? Probably the nine bullets he was hit with in May 2000. "How To Rob," Fifty's first single about mugging rap and R&B celebrities, set the tone fo, and I was uncomfortable with being afraid." 

Fifty is publicly menacing- this is a given- but while recovering, he privately found solace in searching for the shooters. Feelings of fear forced the Queens rapper to do some emotional reckoning. "Either fear consumes you, or you'll become a bit insensitive, and you'll start to approach the problem instead of run from it." It seems Fifty approached the problem successfully. His first release post-shooting, Get Rich or Die Trying, is to date six times platinum domestically.  --Torii MacAdams
