The Original 50 Cent—Kelvin Martin
Never having been the type to co-sign with the ghetto mythology depicted by mags such F.E.D.S. and Don/Diva, whispered by wannabe street hustlers and spit by rappers faking hustler, funkdigi quickly dismissed many of the vids popping up on video store shelves in the inner-city on so-called New York gangsters. Recently, an abundance of straight-to-video releases, detailing the life and times of some of these street hustlers, gangsters and stickup kids have been selling like the return of cooked crack, to our dismay. However, funkdigi has become intrigued with the story of Brooklyn's Kelvin Martin a.k.a "50 Cent", the man whom partly inspired rapper Curtis Jackson a.k.a. 50 Cent.
