50 Cent (Curtis Jackson) is a lot of things. Rapper, Actor, Entrepreneur, Philanthropist. An author is what you’d never expect him to be, until you read The 50th LAW, which is written in collaboration with Robert Greene.
Generally, the book ; The 50th LAW, is perceived as the ultimate guide to becoming a master strategist and supreme realist.
It uses 50’s ‘utter fearlessness’ (the story of an orphaned young kid from Southside Queens hustling hard to make his way out of the roughest neighbourhood to become one of the most successful personalities in the world) as a guide.

That, if he could make it out, and become successful, you too can.
In fact, the book compares him to Napoleon Bonaparte; or rather his hip-hop version.
The ONE part I absolutely loved about The 50th LAW has to be…Bad publicity:
If you ignore it, you look guilty.
If you fight it, you seem defensive.
If you go with it and channel it in your direction, you have turned it into an opportunity for positive attention.
All in all, I felt the book was nothing more than a collection of anecdotes of famous influential people throughout history, motivational quotes and trying too much to make 50 Cent look real tough and successful.
