50 Cent to Hit the Stage at GOP Convention Amid Trump Assassination Attempt Buzz

50 Cent

50 Cent is reportedly set to perform at the Republican National Convention, which began in Milwaukee on Monday. According to CNN’s Victor Blackwell, the legendary New York rapper is on the schedule, although “plans could still change.” This development follows the resurgence of his hit song “Many Men” on the charts after Donald Trump survived an assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania, on Saturday.

In a controversial move, 50 Cent shared an edited version of his Get Rich or Die Tryin’ cover with Trump’s face on his body earlier this week. He captioned it, “Trump gets shot and now I’m trending.” The news of his potential performance at the R.N.C. has sparked a wave of criticism on social media.

MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN – JULY 15: Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-LA) and Republican National Committee co-chair Michael Whatley (R) appear on stage as the convention takes the official photograph on the first day of the Republican National Convention at the Fiserv Forum on July 15, 2024, in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Delegates, politicians, and the Republican faithful are in Milwaukee for the annual convention, concluding with former President Donald Trump accepting his party’s presidential nomination. The RNC takes place from July 15-18.

“He’s the perfect fit. His movies and TV shows show black men in the worst possible light as drug dealers and killers. Exactly what the GOP represents us as,” one user on X (formerly Twitter) wrote. Another remarked, “Yet another felon, who can’t vote anyway, so his opinion does not matter.”

In other news, Trump confirmed Ohio Senator J.D. Vance as his vice-presidential candidate for the upcoming election. He made the announcement on Truth Social on Monday. Stay tuned for more updates on 50 Cent and the Republican National Convention on Honk Magazine.

It is an anthem for anyone experiencing tough times who refuses to give up hope. Lana Crow continues to demonstrate her songwriting skills, both musically pleasing and emotionally rich, with “Laugh With You.”

Lisa Boostani creates a mesmerizing tidal realm in “Ocean”

Lisa Boostani

Lisa Boostani’s “Ocean” takes you deep into a sensory world where body, spirit, and myth come together, beyond the surface of genre. Boostani makes a soundscape that is both ethereal and deeply human by combining the broad essence of psychedelic pop with the strong appeal of alternative rock.

Her voice rises as if it is coming from deep within her, shaped by emotion rather than action. She intentionally channels the intangible, turning weakness into strength rather than a source of pain, and “Ocean” tells people to get involved in this inner world, not just watch it. This release is an integral part of her first EP, “One,” which will come out in March 2026 and is based on love, sensuality, and unity.

If “Ocean” is any indication, the EP will show sensuality not as something pretty, but as a kind of spiritual intelligence, a way to know yourself by connecting with others. The song’s textures and structure have an aquatic quality, moving between clarity and delirium, rhythm and freedom. Its emotional focus is on immersion instead of resolution.

The striking quality of “Ocean” is the blend of the mystical worlds. Boostani understands that strength often shows up as gentleness and that deep feelings are better expressed through frequencies than words. She wants people to see consciousness as immediacy, sensation as truth, and openness as an undeniable strength.
