50 Cent confirms Belgrade concert

It seems rapper 50 Cent will hold a concert in Belgrade. This is bad considering when ever he holds a concert their seems to be an increase in gang activities, especially with shootings tending to happen near his concerts.

BELGRADE -- Chart-topping rapper 50 Cent will be performing in Belgrade on November 6.

The concert will mark the official opening of the Belgrade Arena for concert events.

Tickets for the concert are currently on sale, and the prices range from 1,800 to 2,000 dinars and 4,000 dinars for VIP section seats.

50 Cent has achieved multi-platinum success with his two albums, selling around 22 million records worldwide.

The New York City rapper, born Curtis James Jackson III, runs his own label, G-Unit Records, and has become one of the most profitable names in music with clothing endorsements, video games and movies under his belt.

This is good news. I do not listen 1/2 $ at all but people in the world will hear for Belgrade and Serbia and maybe it will attract someone else. I heard while ago that Madonna is going to have a concert in Belgrade. Not sure what happened with that!?

[Bunjevac]

Are you serious. Here in Toronto, when 50 Cent had a concert two people were shot (1 almost died) outside the arena. Where ever he holds a concert gang problems increase. Second, Madonna are you serious. We should not let that sacrilegous opportunistic whore corrupt the youth and perform a concert in which she will desecrate a cross and insult christianity or any other religion.

Firstly, Toronto is not Belgrade. USA and Canada are worlds for themselves and whole that gang thing is not that overblown here. Yes we have mafia but that's a completely another thing. I honestly doubt someone would fight here for his concert.

Regarding Madonna, I already said I just heard that. And I respect Madonna as an artist and performer. You have your opinion, and I have mine.:victory:

[Bunjevac]

Ok. Your point about Toronto / Belgrade is true. But Madonna is not respectable as an artist or performer, she symbolizes to a large degree the things that are wrong in societies.

i dont really agree about madonna, as for 50 cent, belgrade should get some decent artists performing there and not some rapper-gangster check-it-out-yo wannabes

I consider nearly all rappers to be that way. They always make a record about living on the street, ghetto being criminals. Then as soon as they earn money the record is about the exact opposite. Rappers are nothing more then the biggest sell outs and hypocrits.

That's Toronto. Do you really think that American and Canadian inner-city gangs will travel to Belgrade to shoot each-other up over there? LOL. They can't afford the tickets. Eastern Europe has a different youth counterculture. I'm sure Belgrade has its own share of football hooligans and other lowlifes, but are there drive by shootings and youth gang wars in Belgrade? You tell me. I don't think there would be, but maybe I'm just behind times.
