DJ Envy and Charlamagne tha God, the show’s hosts, brought up previous reports about 50 Cent being asked to perform his song “Many Men” at the Republican National Convention in July. This 2003 track became an anthem among Trump supporters following an assassination attempt on the former president. “At the RNC or this past Sunday?” Charlamagne inquired, to which 50 Cent clarified, “This past Sunday,” regarding the $3 million performance.

He confirmed he had also turned down an offer for the RNC, saying, “I didn’t even go far … I didn’t talk to them about that kinda stuff. I’m afraid about politics.” He further elaborated on his stance, stating, “You understand? I do not like no part about them.” He humorously added, “So no gangbanging and no politics!”

50 Cent expressed his concerns about the divisive nature of political engagement, noting, “When you do get involved in it, no matter how you feel, someone passionately disagrees with you. That’s the formula for the confusion that sent Kanye to Japan. He said something about both of those things — and now he can only go to Japan.”

Trump’s rally, held ahead of the November 5 election, attracted a significant crowd but stirred controversy when comedian Tony Hinchcliffe made a racially insensitive joke about Puerto Rico. Hinchcliffe's comments prompted backlash from notable Latino figures, including Bad Bunny, Jennifer Lopez, and Ricky Martin, who voiced their support for Trump’s opponent, Kamala Harris. Tim Walz, Harris’ VP pick, expressed outrage during a live Twitch session, stating, “You have some a—hole calling Puerto Rico ‘floating garbage,’ know that that’s what they think about you. It’s what they think about anyone who makes less money than them.”

While many celebrities have aligned themselves with Harris, 50 Cent has not publicly endorsed either candidate for the upcoming election.
