WHEN A MOTHER IS MURDERED, THE RESULT IS 50'S HUNGER

50 Cent's mother was killed at age 23, when he was just eight years old.

Born in the South Jamaica section of Queens, Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson has lived in New York City all his life. He was raised solely by his mother, Sabrina, who gave birth to him at the age of fifteen.

50 Cent stated that his mother worked as a cocaine dealer and was a lesbian. The line "coming up I was confused, my mommy kissing a girl" from Hate It or Love It featuring The Game also refers to his mother's sexuality.

In 1983, she became unconscious after having consumed a drugged drink and eventually died as a result of the gas in her apartment turned on amidst closed windows. It is however a common believe that the gas incidence wasn't an accident and was deliberately orchested to have her killed, although this has never been proven.

Following her death, Jackson moved into his grandparents' house with his eight aunts and uncles. He recalls, "My grandmother told me, 'Your mother's not coming home. She's not gonna come back to pick you up. You're gonna stay with us now.' That's when I started adjusting to the streets a little bit".
