Popular Rapper, 50, Shares His Thoughts on Potential Taylor Swift Collaboration ...Saudi Arabia

Could a 50 Cent and Taylor Swift collaboration ever happen? The rapper just gave his honest take.

This possible duo may seem very random, but the two have a slight connection. In Swift's song "Ruin the Friendship," the sixth track from her most recent project, The Life of a Showgirl, the 35-year-old singer mentions the popular 2000s rapper in a verse, singing "But as the 50 Cent song played, should've kissed you anyway."

In a recent interview with Extra TV, the 50-year-old rapper, actor and producer opened up about Swift and how he felt when got a shoutout on one of the tracks. 50 Cent also revealed how big a Travis Kelce fan he is.

"It really is cool 'cause when she makes the reference, if you listen to the song, it's to what was going on in culture at that time. The music, you couldn’t miss it at that point and that’s why it was cool to me…" 50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis James Jackson III, shared with Extra TV. "What she was making reference to is the period that no one was more prominent in music at that point."

In "Ruin the Friendship", Swift sings about a high school crush and the what-ifs. The track is rumored to be about Swift's high school best friend, Jeff Lang, who passed away when he was just 21 years old on Nov 2. 2010. Before moving to online school to focus on her career, Swift attended Hendersonville High School from 2003-2004, right around the time 50 Cent was becoming popular.

In the interview, 50 Cent was asked if he’d ever consider teaming up with Taylor Swift, and his answer didn't disappoint.

"We got to ask her because she's in the driver [seat]," the "Baby by Me" rapper said. "You know how big Taylor Swift is right now? She has to have a record that sounds like it might sound good with 50."

Born and raised in Queens, New York, 50 Cent gained fame with his 2003 debut album Get Rich or Die Tryin’, which spawned hits like "In da Club" and "21 Questions," solidifying him as a defining voice of 2000s rap. He was first discovered by Eminem the year before, who signed 50 Cent to his label Shady Records. He has since created five studio albums, with his most recent being Animal Ambition, which was released in 2014.

These days, 50 Cent has now focused his career on acting and producing, but he has done many musical performances over the past few years, including being a surprise performer in the Super Bowl LVI halftime show in 2022 and embarking on a Las Vegas residency called 50 Cent: In da Club from December 2024 to January 2025.
