50 Cent’s latest side quest was a surprise yacht party performance.
Footage obtained by TMZ shows the rapper and television producer surprising attendees when Flo Rida brought him out as a special guest at Houston Rockets owner Tilman Fertitta’s shindig.
“An icon, the legend,” Flo said when introducing Fif to the stage. “The greatest ever. Make some noise for my brother, 50 Cent,” Flo added, as the crowd cheered. 50 proceeded to play some of his hit songs, including “P.I.M.P.” and “Candy Shop.”
According to the outlet, 50 and Flo also sprayed champagne from the stage. It wasn’t just any ol’ champagne, but rather Le Chemin du Roi from 50 Cent’s Sire Spirits brand—named “The Path of the King”—which costs $150 per bottle.
Fertitta tapped Flo Rida and 50 Cent to perform at his annual San Luis Salute in celebration of Mardi Gras in Galveston, Texas, which took place on Fertitta’s 252-foot motor yacht, per the Houston Chronicle.
Donald Trump recently nominated Fertitta to serve as the US Ambassador to Italy and San Marino in December. 50 and Trump have also had their own dealings. Back in October, Fif revealed that he was offered $3 million to perform at Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally, but declined. “I stay away from religion, I stay away from politics,” 50 told The Breakfast Club at the time.
On Monday (March 3), 50 also celebrated the 20th anniversary of his album, The Massacre, which includes chart-topping songs, “Candy Shop,” “Lil Bit,” and “Disco Inferno.”
