50 Cent congratulates Eminem on becoming a grandfather after Hailie Jade welcomes baby boy
Eminem has officially entered grandpa mode — and 50 Cent is here for it. Over the weekend, 50 Cent took to X (formerly Twitter) to celebrate Eminem's latest milestone after the rapper's daughter, Hailie Jade, announced the birth of her son. Posting a sweet photo of the newborn, 50 wrote, 'Congratulations This is the best WOW.'
Hailie Jade, 29, shared the news on Friday, revealing her baby boy's full name — Elliot Marshall McClintock — and his birthday, March 14. Fans quickly noted that the middle name, Marshall, is a nod to Eminem's real name, Marshall Bruce Mathers III. One fan commented, 'When he's 10 he'll be saying 'my Grandpa is Eminem' .. coolest flex ever.'

Another chimed in with praise for 50 Cent, saying, 'You're gonna be an awesome gruncle!' — a mashup of grandpa and uncle, fitting for the rapper who has known Em for more than two decades.
Hailie Jade tied the knot with Evan McClintock in May 2024, a year after getting engaged. The wedding was a low-key affair attended by close friends and family — including, of course, 50 Cent.
The G-Unit mogul and Eminem have remained close collaborators since the early 2000s, working together on hits like 'Patiently Waiting' and 'Crack a Bottle.' Last year, 50 even hyped Em's latest project, 'The Death of Slim Shady,' and expressed interest in finally making their long-rumored joint album a reality.
'That would be great,' Eminem said in a December interview with Shade 45. 'We just gotta stop bullshitting and just do it. I would never say it's not possible, what the f–k?!'
50 replied with enthusiasm, posting, 'Looks like I'll be back in the booth after all! Just gotta do this residency in Vegas first.'
With a new baby in the family and longtime friends cheering him on, it looks like Eminem's next chapter is shaping up to be a heartwarming one.

Eminem sues Meta for $109 million over unlicensed use of his music
Eminem is suing Meta, the parent company of Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp, for copyright infringement, accusing the tech giant of distributing over 200 of his songs without permission. The lawsuit, filed by Eminem's music publishing company, Eight Mile Style, on May 30, seeks damages of up to $109 million. Eight Mile Style claims that Meta made Eminem's songs available in its Music Libraries, allowing users to utilise features like Original Audio and Reels Remix. As a result, the rapper's songs were incorporated into millions of videos and streamed billions of times across the platforms. The lawsuit alleges that Meta infringed on the copyrights of 243 of Eminem's songs, accusing the company of the "unauthorized storage, reproduction, and exploitation" of the tracks. Eight Mile Style also claims that this infringement has led to a "diminished value" of the songs and caused financial losses for the company. The lawsuit seeks statutory damages of up to $150,000 per song, per platform, which could result in a total of $109.35 million in damages. In addition to monetary compensation, Eight Mile Style is also requesting a jury trial. A Meta spokesperson told The Independant that the company had been negotiating with Eight Mile Style in good faith but was faced with a lawsuit instead of continued discussions.
