50 Cent’s ‘Many Men’ Soundtracks Donald Trump’s Entrance on Adin Ross’ Stream
Election season is in full swing with just over three months (92 days, but who’s counting?) until Election Day. Donald Trump appeared on internet personality Adin Ross’ Kick stream on Monday (Aug. 5), where he entered the building to 50 Cent’s “Many Men” as his soundtrack of choice.
The Get Rich or Die Tryin’ anthem has become a rallying cry of sorts for Trump in the wake of last month’s assassination attempt. Trump steps into the venue to the menacing track co-produced by Eminem, and greets the supporters in attendance — most of whom are rocking red Make America Great Again caps and holding pro-Donald Trump signs.
Of course, 50 references himself being shot on “Many Men” and the G-Unit boss himself leaned into all the viral memes, which resulted in a boost to the 2003 album on the charts.
“How is this real life?” a fan asked on X.
In the streaming week following the assassination attempt on Trump in Pennsylvania (July 12-July 18), “Many Men” registered 6.4 million official U.S. streams in the tracking week, which is 224% higher than the 2 million total streams in the prior frame.
During the stream, Ross had Trump comment on various political leaders and pop-culture figures including Ye (formerly Kanye West) and Young Thug.
“He’s a very complicated,” Trump said of West. “Let’s say complicated because he is. He’s a really nice guy, but he can get some people into trouble. And he can get some other people. He’s got a good heart — he does, he does, but he’s complicated.”
Trump and West have plenty of history dating back to DT sending well wishes to Ye and Kim Kardashian when the couple tied the knot in 2014. West said he would’ve voted for Trump in 2016, and paid 45 a visit at the White House in October 2018. The Graduation rapper rocked a MAGA hat on Saturday Night Live in 2018, and then went on to face-off with Trump and Joe Biden in a failed 2020 presidential election bid.
The twice-impeached former president even gave his thoughts on Young Thug’s much-delayed YSL RICO trial and called for the incarcerated rapper to be “treated fairly” by the Georgia legal system. “I hear Young Thug — I heard the name, I heard it from other people where they say he’s being treated unfairly. He’s gotta be treated fairly,” he demanded on Ross’ stream.
Thug — born Jeffery Williams — has been behind bars since May 2022 and there is no end date in sight for the YSL trial. According to NBC News, it’s the longest trial so far in Georgia’s history.
