Breaking News: 50 Cent Claims Jay-Z Didn’t Want Him to Be Part of Super Bowl LVI Halftime Show

Roc Nation — which has helped the NFL produce the halftime show since 2020 — tried to block his surprise appearance alongside hip-hop veterans Eminem, Snoop Dogg, Mary J.

Blige, Dr. Dre and Kendrick Lamar.Clarifying that by “they” he meant Roc Nation, the “In Da Club” rapper said he was only involved because his mentor Eminem intervened. “Yeah, they didn’t want me there,” said 50 Cent.

“Eminem wouldn’t do it without me. That’s how I ended up on the show because he was not coming if I didn’t do it. When that happens, you go, ‘Damn, so you just lost Eminem because you didn’t bring 50? Damn. All right. Bring 50 then.’”
