50 Cent’s path to stardom was marred by an incident that left him injured by nine shots in 2000, something that became a topic in his music for the early portion of his career.

The G-Unit head honcho recalled the time he was sued by a doctor for an unpaid medical bill. The doctor saved his life after he was shot 9 times, then charged him 32G’s.

👀see how they make me out to be the bad guy no matter what. Boy it’s a good thing i learned not to care what people think of me.🤷🏽‍♂️I didn’t get on till 03, the doctor came back 👀looking for 32G’s. 😆I said man, get the f*ck outta here before you get shot. LOL #starzgettheapp #bransoncognac #lecheminduroi

Speaking to The Big Issue back in 2016, 50 said of the shooting:

When you get hurt as bad as I did, you become afraid of everything because you know anything can happen at any time. I got shot in the afternoon, broad daylight. So I got scared, and that made me harder than I was before. The only time I was comfortable was when I didn’t care. So I just said – f*ck it. When you have the pistol and you’re looking for them, your attention is shifted. You’re not afraid anymore. You’re like, ‘I hope that is them coming up the block now.’
