When 50 Cent released Get Rich or Die Tryin’ on February 6, 2003, hip-hop changed overnight. Spearheaded by Eminem and Dr. Dre, the album sold 872,000 copies in its first four days and went on to sell over 15 million copies worldwide. Hits like “In da Club,” “21 Questions,” and “Many Men (Wish Death)” became anthems of a generation.
