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.

Kalpee Honors Heritage and Heart on His Emotion-Rich New EP Dougla Boi

Kalpee

Kalpee is back with Dougla Boi, a beautiful new EP that is both personal and powerful. It gives listeners a close look at the layers of identity, heritage, and emotion that make him who he is. The Trinidad and Tobago artist is confident in his own space, which is rooted in New Calypso and polished with hints of dancehall, R&B, and afrobeats. In this space, genre bends, but emotion leads.

Named after the Trinidadian word for someone of mixed African and Indian heritage, Dougla Boi is honest, proud, and warm about the complexities of culture. Kalpee opens a window into the dualities that define him across six tracks, turning personal truth into universal resonance. The EP is just under 19 minutes long, but every second is carefully planned to take listeners on a journey through courage, joy, healing, and the quiet strength that comes from accepting all parts of yourself.

The first single, “Under,” stands out right away for its calming yet emotionally charged experience. Kalpee’s voice flows over a beat that sounds both new and old, fitting the EP’s theme of bringing cultures together. It’s one of the best examples of how he can mix soft and hard sounds, which is what makes his New Calypso sound so unique.

“Everybody,” which features Full Blown, is another excellent song that has already done very well. It has a happy vibe and an infectious bounce, making it one of the EP’s most replayable songs. “Everybody” captures the spirit of community and shared experience, which is what Kalpee means when he says that identity is not a box but a rhythm.
