New York was shaken this morning by an unprecedented tragedy. On the busy I-95 freeway, a black luxury supercar, confirmed to be owned by legendary rapper 50 Cent, suddenly lost control at extremely high speed. In the blink of an eye, the car spun around several times and then crashed straight into the steel median. The terrible collision created a loud bang, causing the entire road to shake. In an instant, a fierce fire broke out, turning the car into a red fireball.
Witnesses on the freeway recounted the terrifying moment: “The car shot sparks like fireworks, then exploded. I only had time to hear screams, everything was like hell in broad daylight.” Black smoke billowed up, the smell of burning gasoline filled the air, causing dozens of panicked drivers to rush out of their cars and run away in despair.
Just a few minutes later, a series of fire trucks and ambulances rushed in. Sirens wailed, blue and red lights reflected on the shattered glass. Paparazzi quickly arrived, flashbulbs flashing through the smoke and dust, capturing the scene of fans gathering on the side of the road, many of them crying when they heard that 50 Cent was the victim. Police immediately sealed off the scene, forcing them to block kilometers of highway, creating unprecedented traffic chaos.
In the sea of fire, paramedics bravely rushed in, pulling out a motionless body, heavily covered in smoke. The crowd was stunned when they realized it was 50 Cent. Right on the cracked road, they began to perform CPR. Chest compressions were repeated, oxygen masks were pressed tightly against the lifeless face. The sound of the electric shock machine rang out many times, but the monitor still only showed a cold straight line. “There is no more reaction,” an emergency doctor exclaimed in a choked voice. Ambulances wailed, taking the body away under the desperate eyes of thousands of fans standing outside the blockade.
At NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, the ICU was lit up all night. Doctors continued to make final efforts, but it was all too late. The official announcement was made: 50 Cent had died on the spot due to severe injuries after the collision. The news spread like a lightning bolt, leaving the music world and millions of fans worldwide in pain.
Social media exploded with the hashtags #PrayFor50Cent and #Goodbye50, millions of people sharing legendary songs like In Da Club, Candy Shop, Many Men. In New York, thousands of fans flocked to the scene, turning it into a sea of flowers and white candles. One fan cried: “He survived 9 bullets, but in the end, he collapsed in his own hometown.”
The tragedy did not stop: due to the crowd being too large, hundreds of people crowded on the overpass near the scene, causing the bridge to shake violently and then suddenly partially collapse. Dozens of fans fell onto the road, creating tragedy after tragedy. Firefighters and police were forced to send rescue helicopters to rescue them.
Meanwhile, artists around the world paid their respects. Eminem burst into tears during a live interview: “I lost a brother, a true legend.” Jay-Z wrote briefly on Twitter: “The game will never be the same. Rest in power, 50.” The White House also issued a special statement: “50 Cent was a powerful voice for a generation, and a testament to the power to overcome adversity.”
Night fell, and New York turned into a sea of candles. In Times Square, a giant LED screen projected his portrait, with the words “Rest In Peace, 50 Cent – Legend Forever” lighting up the night sky. People sang the song “Many Men” loudly, tears mixing with the cold rain. The scene was like a tragic film, capturing the moment the world lost a hip-hop legend.
