Take A Whiff Of 'Power By 50 Cent'

Interscope’s multi-platinum recording rapper/actor, 50 Cent stopped by the studio to talk about his new fragrance Power by 50 Cent , which is available in stores today.

Power by 50 Cent was developed in partnership with Lighthouse Beauty. According to the fragrance firm, the cologne is a combination of lemon leaves, black pepper, Artemisia, a heart of dark wood, coriander, nutmeg and base notes full of patchouli, musk and oak moss. Inspired by 50 Cent's favorite watch -- Piguet -- the bottle is dark grey and silver glass and with a metal stopper.

Born and raised in South Jamaica, Queens, 50 Cent (Curtis Jackson) was discovered by rapper Eminem and soon signed a contract with Interscope Records. Since then, he has become one of the world’s highest-selling rappers. In 2003, 50 Cent quickly rose to fame with the release of his album Get Rich or Die Tryin', which was followed up by The Massacre two years later. Together, both albums have sold about 21 million copies. Once he established his own celebrity, also in 2003, he founded G-Unit Records, which signed several successful rappers such as Young Buck, Lloyd Banks, and Tony Yayo.

You can meet 50 Cent in person tonight, November 5 from 5pm to 7pm when he stops by Macy's Hearld Square. For more information, visit www.powerbyfiftycent.com and www.50cent.com.
