Hip-hop mogul, entrepreneur, and cultural icon Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson has once again made headlines—this time not for a new album, television show, or business move, but for a powerful tattoo that symbolizes his enduring legacy in the entertainment industry.
The tattoo, revealed on his Instagram with the caption “Legacy Inked. Built to last.”, spans across his upper back and features a striking design: a lion’s head fused with a vintage microphone, surrounded by barbed wire and dollar bills, with the words “Get Rich, Stay Rich, Die a Legend” etched underneath in gothic script.
The piece was created by renowned tattoo artist Dr. Woo, known for his work with celebrities and intricate detail. According to sources close to 50 Cent, the tattoo represents his journey from the streets of South Jamaica, Queens, to becoming one of the most influential figures in hip-hop and business.
“This isn’t just a tattoo, it’s a statement,” 50 Cent shared in a short video accompanying the post. “I built something from nothing. This is about hustle, survival, and legacy. My story’s written in ink now—literally.”
The design includes subtle nods to key milestones in his career, such as:
A miniature bullet, referencing his survival of a near-fatal shooting.
The numbers “2003”, marking the release of his debut album Get Rich or Die Tryin’.
A faint skyline of New York City, paying homage to his roots.
Fans and fellow artists flooded social media with praise, calling the artwork “epic,” “inspirational,” and “a perfect tribute to a living legend.”
With this bold move, 50 Cent reminds the world that while trends fade, legacy is permanent—just like ink.
