50 Cent claims hip hop tour supremacy - other music news
September 15, 2008
50 Cent reckons he is the biggest touring rap act in the world.
New York rapper 50, real-name Curtis Jackson, said he has a bigger global reach than Eminem.
He told the BBC: “I’m the largest hip hop touring artist. Eminem is the biggest rap artist on the planet, [but] I’m the biggest touring artist because I travel places.” 50 added: “He [Eminem] won’t actually go to each of those territories to be in front of all his fans. Not that he doesn’t love them but he won’t make the sacrifice of traveling as hard as I do.”
The MC also acknowledged Jay-Z’s bill-topping appearance at Glastonbury.
He said: “Jay-Z didn’t have a lot of records to have a big international following, so for him to get out there and be a headliner, it was good positioning on his part.”
