During the conversation, Fif took a moment to reflect back on the perks of being a world-famous rapper and đâŻđ symbol following the breakout success of his debut album Get Rich or Die Tryinâ, and letâs just say he had no shortage of luck with the ladies.
â2003 was so much fun. There was so much energy around me as a new artist that you canât recreate,â 50 Cent said. âBetween 2003 and 2005, Iâve seen every version of every kind of vagina out there. I kept being a guy who would have what he could have and not what he wants, and then when it shifts so fast that you go, âWhat? What happened?â Youâre not prepared for it. And theyâre so excited.â
He continued, âYouâre going, âme?â Then you just have the greatest time of your life. Now look, in 2005, you start feeling like you hot. So all of a sudden, you have transformed. Youâre a bad bitch. So now that youâre this bad bitch, youâre looking at the girls looking at you, and youâre going, âOh, she think she gonna get me?â
âAnd now you think youâre so hot that youâre running from the girls. The afterparty is not happening in your hotel room anymore because you have this newfound value for yourself. Youâre running to be in the room by yourself.â
50 Cent didnât always have the problem of women chasing after him. The Power mogul previously admitted that he made his 2003 hit â21 Questionsâ to help his love life and that he hoped it would bring women into his orbit.
â[Dr. Dre] said, âI know what this is. Itâs N.W.A with just one member and you really donât need it,ââ the Queens, New York legend said in an interview with Ari Melber on MSNBC earlier this year. âHe didnât know why I wanted to put the record on.â
âWhy did you?â Melber interjected.
Elsewhere during his chat with Menâs Health, 50 Cent revealed that DâAngeloâs shirtless performance in his iconic âUntitled (How Does It Feel)â music video inspired him to get in shape early on in his career
While recovering from his infamous near-fatal shooting in 2000, during which he was shot nine times and miraculously survived, a young 50 was placed on a liquid diet for six weeks, which resulted in him shedding 54 pounds off his previously stocky frame.
âWhen you slim down, you see everything,â he said. âIâm also working out to get myself stronger, âcause whoâs to say youâre not gonna get hit again?â
50 Cent then said DâAngeloâs aforementioned video served as a pivotal moment for him because of the female reaction.
âThey were talking about a Brad Pitt line!â he recalled, referring to the actorâs defined V-shaped pelvis in Fight Club. âIâm like, âWait, whatâs that?! Oh, nah, thatâs important!ââ
