50 Cent has been declared the hottest thing in hip-hop since Notorious B.I.G. It was the late Run DMC DJ Jam Master Jay who took 50 under his wing and taught him the trade.50 Cent has taken the streets by storm and has become the most sought after artist in almost a decade. Packed with interviews and rare footage, this documentary film "50 Cent - Who Dares Wins" now tells the complete and unauthorised story behind the grimy, streetwise and absolutely fearless 50 Cent for the first time. A must for any fan's collection.
After a storied history to which most rappers merely pay lip service, 50 Cent has shot to the top of the charts and made headlines almost constantly, after first gaining exposure by being taken under the wing of Run DMC's Jam Master Jay. Later he was signed jointly by Eminem and Dr. Dre, whose endorsements sealed 50's fate as the hottest thing to hit hip hop in a very long time. But things didn't always go so smoothly for the svelte, streetwise rapper; his first attempt at fame was cut short by a brutal attempt on his life, which rendered him a pariah in the industry and a hero of the underground for years. With a tenacity that backs up his boasts to an unheard of degree, 50 Cent has more than made good on his 2003 album, GET RICH OR DIE TRYIN'. The unauthorized documentary WHO DARES WINS uses interviews with those in the know, as well as previously-unseen footage, to detail the process by which 50 overcame unheard-of obstacles to become one of the most sought-after rappers in recent history.
