In an exciting announcement for hip-hop fans worldwide, 50 Cent has confirmed that he’s on board for a joint album with long-time collaborator Eminem. The G-Unit leader shared the news via Instagram on December 27, after a flurry of comments from Eminem about the possibility of a full-length album together. 50 Cent’s post, which read, “Looks like I’ll be back in the booth after all! Just gotta do this residency in Vegas first,” has sparked anticipation for what could be one of the most anticipated hip-hop collaborations of the decade.
The idea of a 50 Cent and Eminem joint album isn’t new, but recent comments from both artists have reignited hopes of making it a reality. Eminem himself addressed the notion while celebrating SiriusXM’s Shade 45 20th anniversary on Christmas Day. When asked by DJ Whoo Kid about the prospects of working on an album together, Eminem was candid: “That would be great. We just gotta stop bulls**tting and do it.” His manager, Paul Rosenberg, also weighed in, expressing enthusiasm, “I would love to hear it, so whenever you guys are ready, we’re putting it out.”
This wasn’t the first time Eminem had spoken about the possibility. Back in January, while promoting his own solo material, the Detroit rap legend reflected on the idea, admitting, “I don’t know where that’s come from, but it’s crazy.” Still, he made it clear that if 50 Cent needed anything, he’d be there to make the collaboration happen. “That s**t’d be crazy, though — an album with me and him,” he added.
Fans of both artists have been eagerly awaiting the duo’s reunion on a full project. Over the years, 50 Cent and Eminem have created some iconic tracks together, including “Peep Show,” “Psycho,” “The Re-Up,” and the unforgettable “Crack A Bottle” with Dr. Dre. Their chemistry has always been undeniable, and the prospect of a joint album promises to deliver even more of the hard-hitting rhymes and raw energy that made them two of the biggest names in hip-hop.
As we await more details, one thing is clear: the streets will be buzzing when 50 Cent and Eminem finally drop their long-awaited joint album. Will it live up to the hype? Only time will tell, but for now, fans can dream of the legendary duo’s return to the booth.
