Hello World! lol
Like I promised I was going to be in the house when 50 cent made his debut back to South Side Jamaica Queens. It was just weeks ago back in August when there was all the talk going on about the event. My brother was featured on Fox 5 news expressing his interest in 50 cent coming.
The Event finally took place this past saturday at P.S. 40 park. The event was titled "Forever Young" Family Day.
Before entering the park every went through security and was wanned down to secure everyones safety at this event. Of course the police were also in full force at this event as they were waiting for something to go down. Luckily it all ended well no fights broke out everyone came together as one.
At the event there were little street signs posted up to direct you to the different areas of the event. There was a street sign labeled "Food" and you stand in a assembly line and get some grub lol. They served Hot dogs, hamburgers, potato salad,
macaroni salad, beans (lol) , BBQ chicken and either a bottle of water or a Juicy Juice for the beverages. There were picnic tables set up in an area called "Grown Folk" street where you could sit and eat.
There was also carnival like games set up for the children where the kids one prizes even if they didn't win on "Game" Street
and they had a mini petting zoo with snakes, cockatoos and turtles on "Nature in My Hood" Street.
Not to mention there was rock climbing and moon bounce for the kids. The day was fun filled for the kids.
They also had face painitng (see pic below of my little sister Najah getting her face painted at 50 cent's event)
At about 4:30 the DJ announced are y'all ready for the show everyone screamed and ran for the stage. 50 Cent Came out with a whole crowd of people. Amongst that crowd was "Tony Yayo", "Lloyd Banks", & "Papoose". 50 cent did his thing with the event it was definitely a good look for the hood and on his part as it was a positive event despite the silent haters who were looking for something to happen.
I personally what like to say Thank You to 50 cent for doing this event and giving the kids and even the adults a free concert right in our neighborhood. 50 didn't have to do what he did but he did and I thank him. Check the video footage below courtesy of my G1 phone (lol).
I was in the midst of the crowd when they were going crazy while holding my lil sister and trying to capture everything so excuse the commotion at the beginning of the video. lol
