50 Cent
While still in high school, 50 Cent was busted carrying a gun and expelled for the offense. He never returned to school (he was sent to correctional boot camp), but a chance encounter with Jam Master Jay in 1996 would ensure that he would never have to. Together, the two produced 50 Cent’s first album – a bust, though it did attract the attention of some big name industry producers leading to 50 Cent’s life-changing record deal with Columbia Records.
