Did 50 cent go to school?

50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis James Jackson III, attended several schools in his youth but did not complete his high school education. He grew up in the South Jamaica neighborhood of Queens, New York, and attended Andrew Jackson High School. However, he was expelled in the 10th grade for selling drugs and never returned.

After leaving high school, 50 Cent focused on his music career. He released his first album, "Power of the Dollar," in 2000, but it was his second album, "Get Rich or Die Tryin'," released in 2003, that catapulted him to fame. The album sold over 13 million copies worldwide and spawned several hit singles, including "In da Club" and "21 Questions."

50 Cent has since become a successful rapper, entrepreneur, and actor. He has released multiple albums, founded a successful record label, and starred in several films and television shows. Despite not finishing high school, he has achieved great success in his career and become a role model for many people who come from disadvantaged backgrounds.
