50 Cent Celebrates Father’s Day in Mirror Selfie

50 Cent’s Father’s Day Shout-out

On June 20, 2021, rapper Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson hopped onto Instagram to wish his followers a Happy Father’s Day. In the caption—“Happy Fathers Day guys, what did you get ? @50centaction”—he kept it short and cheeky, sharing a candid mirror selfie as the backdrop to his annual dad greeting. The post offered a glimpse of his laid-back side, complete with a confident grin and a straightforward call to action for fans to reveal their gifts.

Fans Weigh In With Their Gifts

Comments poured in almost instantly, as followers answered the rapper’s question with a mix of luxury reveals and heartfelt mementos. Some showcased high-end timepieces and designer bags, while others posted snapshots of family-made cards and homemade breakfasts. The post went on to rack up over 1.2 million likes within 24 hours, proving that even top-tier artists relish a chance to connect with their audience on personal milestones.

From Solo Rapper To Devoted Dad

While 50 Cent first broke onto the scene with his 2003 debut album Get Rich or Die Tryin’, he’s long carried equally heavy responsibilities offstage. Jackson is the father of two sons: Marquise Jackson (born 1997) from a high-school relationship, and Sire Jackson (born 2012). Over the years, he’s been candid about his evolving relationship with Marquise—including a public falling-out in 2018—before reconciling and embracing fatherhood with renewed dedication. On social media, he often shares birthday tributes and proud-father moments, revealing a softer side behind his “tough guy” persona.

Entrepreneurial Ventures And Tv Projects

Beyond his music and family life, Jackson has built a formidable business empire. He parlayed his Vitaminwater investment into a multimillion-dollar payday and later launched the SMS Audio headphone line. On screen, he’s best known for executive producing and starring in the hit Starz series Power, which spawned multiple spin-offs including Power Book II: Ghost and Power Book III: Raising Kanan. Between new episodes and brand deals, he balances high-stakes projects with fatherly obligations—evidence that his plate is as full as any devoted parent’s.

As fans continue to scroll through the Father’s Day posts flooding their feeds, 50 Cent’s simple question—“What did you get?”—reminds us that even celebrities want to share in the fun of being a dad. His yearly greeting remains a low-key ritual that blends his charismatic directness with genuine enthusiasm for one of life’s most universal roles.

In marking the occasion with a laid-back selfie and an open invite for fans to chime in, Curtis Jackson proved once again that behind the chart-topping tracks and Hollywood hustle, he’s a dad who simply wants to know how everyone else is celebrating, too.

Trivia

50 Cent has been involved in various philanthropic efforts, such as supporting youth programs and providing meals to starving children.
