What happened between 50 Cent and his son?

His parents' bitter split-up partly influenced 50 Cent's son Marquise's beef with his dad. His father had a $4 million mansion located in Long Island, which Shaniqua claimed was promised to her. After Curtis and Shaniqua broke up, Curtis evicted her from the house.

On May 30, 2008, when Curtis was out filming a movie in Arizona, the house was burnt to the ground. The blaze seemed suspicious even to the authorities. Shaniqua claimed that her ex was trying to kill her and her son.

50 Cent's son Marquise Jackson picked up the feud between his parents and chose to side with his mum. His dad messaged him in 2012, threatening to remove him from his will. Curtis was also absent at Marquise's high school graduation in 2014.

Curtis seems not to be bothered by the bad blood between him and his son. He shares in his book that it's too late for their relationship to work and that he has tried so long to make it work to no avail. He feels that his son Marquise has a huge sense of entitlement, which he doesn't like.

In an interview with Rap-Up in 2017, Marquise Jackson, 50 Cent's son, shared that he felt differently about his dad as he got older because he observed certain patterns that affected their relationship negatively. He used to see his dad as a superman before then.

Marquise Jackson is a young rapper and actor. He is the son of the renowned rapper and actor 50 Cent and reality TV star Shaniqua Tompkins.
