Rap star Curtis James Jackson III, better known as 50 Cent, made history on Monday night in Kosovo when he became the biggest star to perform in the Eastern European state. The sold-out gig attracted 25,000 people at the Pristina soccer stadium. Speaking before the show, the tough rap star addressed threats of violence aimed at him as he travels through Eastern Europe, stating he would never consider cancelling a show. He said, “I haven’t missed a show date in my career. I’ve been to Iraq. I performed for the soldiers. I’ve been to Israel. I’ve been to Beirut. They actually bombed the week after I left.” And the In Da Club star believes his own troubled background is what attracts fans in Kosovo: “I know exactly what happens when the guns come out. Maybe that’s why they (identify) with me.” Kosovo has been run by the United Nations since the end of the Eastern European war in 1999.
