Yesterday was a shocking day as former president Donald Trump was grazed by a bullet at a rally in Pennsylvania. The suspect, Thomas Matthew Crooks, was immediately neutralized at the scene. Interestingly, he was a registered Republican. Authorities also found an explosive device in his vehicle, adding another layer of complexity to the investigation.
Trump was taken to a nearby hospital right away and appears to be okay despite a wound to his right ear. Sadly, one other man died, and two others were seriously injured. The motive behind the attack is still unknown, and officials are working tirelessly to uncover more details.
Amid the chaos, rapper 50 Cent decided to make a bold statement during his performance in Boston. He sang his 2003 hit “Many Men” with the album cover behind him, but with a twist—Trump’s face replaced his. This generated a lot of buzz and soon went viral online.
50 Cent didn’t stop there. He took to social media to further comment on the situation. On X, he posted the face-swapped cover art and wrote, “Trump gets shot and now I’m trending,” followed by a shrug emoji. Additionally, he shared an image of Trump with a bloody ear, captioning it, “I know the vibes. We are all in trouble now!”
Many artists from the hip-hop community voiced their opinions on the assassination attempt. Plies, Soulja Boy, Sleepy Hallow, Kid Cudi, and ScHoolBoy Q all weighed in, showing a range of reactions and emotions about the incident.
50 Cent’s face-swapped Trump performance has certainly stirred the pot, highlighting the growing intersection of politics and pop culture.
