50 Cent walked away with a staggering $3.5 million in cash for a photoshoot inspired by Muhammad Ali’s iconic image.
The G-Unit mogul was swaddled in cash in a recent The Hollywood Reporter cover story, echoing the late sports legend’s iconic 1964 Sports Illustrated cover.
Muhammad Ali used $1 million in cash, while 50 Cent paid his respects by packing two boxes of $3.5 million, perhaps to adjust for inflation or just because of his competitive nature.
Stephen Colbert recently asked 50 Cent about the shoot on “The Late Show,” asking why he didn’t use Photoshop and questioning how heavy the suitcase weighed.
50 Cent revealed that the bags are heavier than you think and not at all like the ones you see in movie heists. “That’s not true,” he said. “About 77 pounds.”
In another recent interview, the topic of wealth came up, with 50 Cent recalling how Dame Dash once told him that $1 million isn’t a lot of money. He also said Dame is now bankrupt.
The former Roc-A-Fella mogul then launched an online war against Fiddy.
However, he went viral when he dropped his grill while talking about 50 Cent on Instagram Live.
50 Cent jumped at the chance to prank Dame and several others who have had something to say about him recently with a video montage promoting his new book.

He then retweeted another video mocking Mrs. Dash.
“I don’t know why things are like this,” he wrote in the post. “But lately every time someone tries something stupid###! Haha.
