OPRAH AND 50 CENT INTERVIEW FINALE


 50 Cent discussed with Oprah about meditation.  She was quite surprised that Curtis (50 Cent) Jackson meditates.  He is currently reading Spiritual Solutions by Deepak Chopra.  He explains that mediation gives him a since of caution.  Being aware of the things around him.  He talked a little about the secret and having a vision of what he wants and how to make that happen.  He went on to explain that he can vision what he wants and then decide how he is going to get there and what path will work.  I was quite surprised that he likes to meditate and I think we all should do more of it to give us a sense of calm and focus on where we are going spiritually.  Curtis (50 Cent) Jackson and Oprah talked about "the beefs" that happen in the rap game and he explained that competition keeps you on your toes.  It makes you want to do better.  Oprah bought up the the battle between him and Kanye West and the CD where he talks about Jay Z and Diddy.   Curtis said that your competition has to do better in order for you to want to work harder.  Competition keeps the creativity going.  If there is no competition what will you look forward to?  The feuds make perfect sense now.  At first I could not understand it, but now I do.  It is part of the business.

Oprah asks 50 Cent about fatherhood and what would he rate himself.  He said by his success and that he can't physically be there, he rates himself an 8.  I think that is pretty good.  He is able to provide for his son and allow his son to never have to want for anything.  I think he rated himself perfectly.  Think about the dads out there who have to work hard and sometimes work multiple jobs to take care of their children. We still see them as good dads because they are able to provide for them.  He goes on to say that he doesn't believe in choosing a path for your child and I loved that statement.  I think it is important that you allow your child to let them choose for themselves what they want to do and be there to support them. 


Then came the question that had women sitting on the edge of their seats. Oprah asked 50 Cent what type of woman excites him.  Many women love 50 Cent and are always curious to who is dating and everything about his love life.  He sat there for a moment and explained he wants a woman who has her own sense of direction.  A woman who has her own goals.  I was quite amazed that he described this type of woman.  I was expecting him to describe her appearance.  If he stays focused he will find a good woman who will be her own person and love him for him. 

I really enjoyed watching part 1 and part 2 and learned so much about  Curtis (50 Cent) Jackson.  To sum it all up he is a wonderful man and now we all have a greater appreciation of him and what he is about.

50 CENT INTERVIEWS WITH OPRAH WINFREY

After many years of feuding, 50 cent and Oprah Winfrey sit down in his grandparents' home.  I couldn't wait to watch this interview to see what 50 cent was going to tell Oprah.  He comes off as this hard core guy who doesn't give a crap about anything.  It's all about hoes, money and the next feud.  That is what many thought of 50 cent.  As I sat down and watched this interview.  I was quite surprised.  I  knew deep down he was a great guy, but the interview proved that his very humbling and just a really nice person.  Some of the things I learned :

1. He is still grandma's baby.
2. He is genuine.
3. He meditates.
4. He is easy-going.
5. He has a heart.

This interview made people look at him in a whole new light.  When he started to cry when talking about the death of his mom and how his grandma had to take care of everything, I saw him as "Curtis" not "50 cent." I had much more respect for him.  He was no longer just a rapper, he was something bigger.  Someone with a heart. If some people don't like the "new 50" so be it.  He has grown to be quite a man and his current project Street King Energy will be one more of his many succcess, except it will be greater.  It will be the biggest success of his life and one that will go down in history. 



Street King Inner Circle loves you and we are behind you 100%.
