With the presidential election looming, DJ Envy asked 50: “Is it true Donald Trump tried to give you money to endorse him one time?”
50 Cent confirmed that he “got a call” and had also been asked to perform his song ‘Many Men, Wish Death’ during this year’s Republican National Convention for a similar sum.
50 replied: “I got a call — they wanted me for Sunday,” referring to the MSG rally, before revealing that Trump’s team offered him $3 million.
Explaining his decision to turn down the offer, the Queens, New York native said: “I’m afraid of politics. I do not like no part of politics. When you do get involved in it, no matter how you feel, someone passionately disagrees with you. I stay away from religion, I stay away from politics.”
He then joked: “That’s the formula for the confusion that has sent Kenya to japan. He said something about both of those things, and now he can only go to Japan.”
