64-year-old hip-hop fan “Momma Jane” goes viral after “rocking with” 50 Cent at Birmingham gig

In a four-star review of the rapper’s live show in Manchester, NME shared: “As confetti spunks into the crowd during a joyous ‘In Da Club’, prompting the kind of audience moves flaunted at every kids’ birthday bash, Fiddy has proved that, while music has been parked for the last decade, he still has the magnetism to demonstrate why he was such a big deal in the first place.”

In other news, some of 50 Cent’s hits are featured as part of a new Grand Theft Auto Spotify playlist.

The American video game publisher took to their official X/Twitter account to share Grand Theft Auto Radio, a playlist curated with classic tracks and “hidden gems” that have been featured across every station in the Grand Theft Auto series which will be based on fan’s Spotify listening preferences.

Artists such as Toto, Gorillaz, Dr. Dre, Travis Scott, M.I.A, Saweetie, Creedence Clearwater Revival, The Outfield, Rosalía, Fergie, John Waite, The Doobie Brothers and more are all included in the playlist.

Elsewhere, the rapper – whose real name is Curtis James Jackson III – expressed his relief that the Writers Guild of America (WGA) had decided to end the Writers’ Strike.

This came after reports on September 25 confirmed that both the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP) and WGA worked out a three-year “Minimum Basic Agreement”  after four consecutive days of negotiations. This decision marked the end of the 146-day strike that halted Hollywood and the entertainment business since May.
