50 Cent has revealed that his next album will be his last full-length release – although he won’t be retiring from music.
The rapper and television mogul has been teasing the follow-up to 2014’s ‘Animal Ambition’ for quite some time, but so far nothing has materialised.
In a recent interview promoting the soon-to-be-released Power spin-off series, Force, which is based on Tommy’s character, 50 discussed one of his recent instagram posts, which caused a bit of a buzz online due to the caption: “Smile my next album might be my last.”
When asked about the post, he confirmed to The Talk on CBS that his next release will be his last full-length project, but that he will continue to release music, with much of it attached to his work in television.

50 Cent has released five solo studio albums across his career: ‘Get Rich Or Die Tryin” (2003), ‘The Massacre’ (2005), ‘Curtis’ (2007), ‘Before I Self Destruct’ (2009) and ‘Animal Ambition’ 2014). He also put out two albums with G-Unit: ‘Beg For Mercy’ (2003) and ‘T.O.S. (Terminate On Sight)’ (2008).
The most recent music 50 has shared is the theme song for Power Book IV: Force.
The Jeremih and Lil Durk assisted tune – called ‘Power Powder Play’ – soundtracks the opening titles of the new series that premieres on February 6 via STARZ.
Meanwhile, the G-Unit rapper has announced details of a massive London show at Wembley Arena this summer.
The announcement for the gig followed news of the rapper being announced as a headliner for Manchester’s Parklife festival, which will be a UK exclusive festival show for 2022.
