In2002, 50 Cent signed a five-album deal with Interscope Records, which also included a greatest hits album. In June 2007, 50 Cent said: "Before I Self Destruct is scheduled to be released February 4, which is the anniversary of Get Rich or Die Tryin'. And it'll be my final studio recording for where I'm at, for my deal. I did a five-album deal, and the fifth album is a greatest-hits CD".[2] However, 50 Cent planned to release one more studio album under Interscope, but went on to ask for his release in 2014, due to frustration with how the label was handling the promotion for Street King Immortal.[3][4][5]
In February 2017, the album was announced by Universal Music Enterprises (UMe).[6] It was announced for a March 31, 2017 release, 14 years after his breakthrough debut album Get Rich or Die Tryin'. The 18 track collection was also announced to be available in all formats, including digital, CD and LP, with the vinyl announced for an April 7, 2017 release.[7][8]
Best of 50 Cent contains 18 tracks spanning 11 years of music from 50 Cent's career, including collaborative work with Nate Dogg, Olivia, Justin Timberlake and other artists.[9][10] Four tracks come from Curtis, the most to be featured from one album. "How to Rob", representing the oldest material on the compilation, is the only song from 50 Cent's unreleased 2000 album Power of the Dollar.[11] "In da Club", "21 Questions" and "P.I.M.P.", all appeared on 50 Cent's 2003 major-label debut album Get Rich or Die Tryin'.[12] "Hustler's Ambition", "Best Friend" and "Window Shopper", were all songs included on Music from and Inspired by the Motion Picture Get Rich or Die Tryin'[13]
Track listing adapted from AllMusic,[1] including entries for Power of the Dollar,[11] Get Rich or Die Tryin',[12] The Massacre,[11] and Music from and Inspired by the Motion Picture Get Rich or Die Tryin'.[13] "How to Rob" contains the unreleased version containing the diss to Mariah Carey and Tommy Mottola.
2017 collection from the rap superstar. 50 Cent is one of the most polarizing figures in hip-hop. With the aid of Eminem and Dr. Dre he became one of the worlds bestselling rappers and rose to prominence. During his career 50 Cent has sold over 30 million albums worldwide and won several awards, including a Grammy Award, thirteen Billboard Music Awards, six World Music Awards, three American Music Awards and four BET Awards. UMe is proud to present a greatest hits compilation made up of 18 of 50's biggest songs.
The Best of 50 Cent album will feature all of 50's biggest hits from Get Rich or Die Tryin, The Massacre, Before I Self Destruct and Get Rich or Die Tryin' (Music from and Inspired By the Motion Picture) and more. If you were old enough to appreciate 50's gangsta rap domination some 12 years ago, you'll definitely remember how huge 50 was when you listen to this album.
50's Get Rich or Die Tryin', with its combination of grimy lyrics and deceptively pop-friendly hooks, managed to sell 12 million copies. His sophomore album, titled The Massacre, sold a whopping 1.14 million album units in just one weeks time. That total would have been the second biggest first week sales of 2016, falling just short Drake's wildly popular album, Views.
If you have updated your iTunes, go to Store and click Music. Then click the arrow on the Music button when the cursor is hovered over it. No. 1 Hits is below the Complete My Album label. (This is from a MacBook Pro. Sorry if this didn't answer your question.)
Unfortunately I checked for updates but it says my iTunes is up to date and I tried looking under the complete my album label and the 69 cent songs aren't there. I wonder if there's a diference between the canadian and american stores. And yes I have a Macbook Pro too so it should be there :S.
Approximately every 2 months, iTunes displays a link that says "69 Songs" on their main page (Music Page). They usually keep the link available for about 2 weeks. However, there is always a large selection of 69 songs available on iTunes. It's easy to find them. Open the iTunes app on your device. Click on the music tab at the bottom of the screen. Then type "69 cent songs" in the search box at the top of the page. The first block of results will be individual songs. To the far right of the list of songs, click the link that says "All Songs." As you scroll to the bottom of the page on the "All Songs" results, more songs will load after you reach the bottom of the page. It takes about 2 to 3 seconds for more songs to appear every time you reach the bottom of the page. I've downloaded hundreds of .69 songs.
If you read my response, you would know that you just gave the same answer as I did but without the detailed explanation that I provided. There are obviously a lot of people who are having problems locating the .69 songs because their questions have continued to go unanswered. I was simply trying to help as many people as possible.

Nearly two decades ago, Eminem released Curtain Call: The Hits, a collection of his greatest songs from his first few studio albums (The Slim Shady LP, The Marshall MathersLP, The Eminem Show, and Encore). The follow-up finds Em pulling cuts from Recovery, The Marshall Mathers LP 2, Revival, Kamikaze, and Music to Be Murdered By, paying homage to those five projects on the cover art.
The New York-born rapper who broke onto the scene with hit-heavy album Get Rich or Die Tryin' got 2010 off to a thrilling start at the Caesars Palace nightclub with a pair of post-countdown sets that reminded clubgoers just how many chart-toppers the 32-year-old rapper has produced in his seven years in the music industry.
Well before 9 p.m., a crowd of clubbers in sequins and blazers formed a line the snaked from Pure's front door along its outside wall and past the nearest street exit to peter out amid the slots. Having paid $250 per ticket to spend the last minutes of the '00s sipping cocktails inside the club and the first minutes of the '10s dancing to 50 Cent, some guests looked genuinely shocked to be standing sober under the casino's bright lights.
Tia Reason of New York said she was surprised at the line that placed her out of viewing distance of Pure's front door. But she and four girlfriends weren't about to turn on their heels and give up on their New Year's plans and pre-paid tickets.
"We're here because it's 2010, and what better place to ring it in together?" Reason said, smiling. "We heard Pure is the hot spot." The headliner didn't hurt either. Reason and her friends agreed that 50 Cent's name on the bill had helped make up their minds. "We should be able to vibe with this crowd," she added.
As the last hour of 2009 ticked by on screens around the 5-year-old club, a steady stream of guests and VIPs poured into the venue. Dressed in a sleek black ensemble of shine and lace topped with a structured blazer and shoulder pads, 24-year-old songstress Ciara stalked the red carpet outside Pure with a crew of female friends waiting to accompany her inside.
If she hasn't been devoting much time to partying, maybe it's because Ciara simply hasn't had the time. In 2009, the multi-platinum-selling artist behind tracks "Like a Boy" and "1,2 Step" released her third album, Fantasy Ride, toured with Jay-Z and made commercial appearances. Ciara seems to have had a better 2009 than most. She summed up her year as "pretty eventful, pretty fun, pretty prosperous, pretty great." Sounds pretty rare, too.
50 Cent also seemed to have missed out on some quality time in Las Vegas clubs. The rapper was last in town in April when he spent time in the Palms recording studio with Dr. Dre and Eminem for his Curtis album. "We got the chance to go to the movies a couple of times, but we didn't go out and party," 50 Cent explained.
50 started his performance on the Pure roof deck, welcoming 2010 with his suggestively titled song "Have a Baby By Me, Baby, Be a Millionaire." About half an hour past midnight, the concert continued in the club's main room.
"2010! We gonna ring it in right," the rapper called from the stage, now out of the black brocade jacket he sported for his walk down the red carpet and wearing a white jacket and his standard issue Yankees hat.
Standing next to boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr., who obligingly held up a stack of cash, 50 launched into the first song of his roughly 45-minute set, "I Got Money." The pair played off each other throughout 50's 13-song tour through his hits with so much chemistry, Mayweather might consider joining the music man on his next tour. When 50 called out "I get money!", Mayweather held up his own pile of bills, fanning them out for all to see.
After performing for nearly an hour, 50 Cent closed out his set in an auditory hail of gunfire with the sound of shots echoing out of the speakers, as if to remind the crowd of the street legitimacy behind the now wealthy musician.
