50-Cent Has No Plans To Retire

Despite cancelling a European promotional trip after being trounced by Kanye West in the chart battle, 50 Cent has sent out a defiant message that he’s not retiring and announced a fresh batch of tour dates.

The heavyweight rapper will play eight arena dates across the UK, kicking off at the Aberdeen Arena on November 7. Tickets go on sale from tomorrow morning (September 22) at 10am – as always, you can get them through Gigwise.

Since his album ‘Curtis’ was beaten to the top spot in both the US and the UK by West’s ‘Graduation’, Fiddy has been very gracious in defeat. On Wednesday he said he felt honoured to have been in the chart battle and that it had done good for hip-hop.

He plays the following shows:

Aberdeen Arena – November 7
Glasgow SECC - 8
Birmingham NEC - 9
London O2 Arena - 10
Bournemouth BIC - 11
Cardiff CIA - 12
Manchester MEN - 14
Nottingham Arena - 16
