 US hip-hop legend 50 Cent was all smiles on Saturday as he jetted out of Sydney.

The well-known rapper, known as Curtis Jackson, recently traveled to Australia to film scenes for the eagerly awaited remake of Street Fighter.

For the flight, the artist known for “In Da Club,” aged 50, adopted a relaxed look, appearing outside wearing a light grey, sleeveless padded jacket.

He donned it on top of a neat, white hoodie adorned with a vibrant, graffiti design spread across the front in black.

Curtis also wore a pair of light khaki pants as well as a pair of white Nike Air Force 1 sneakers.

He finished off his relaxed, informal style by donning a white skullcap under a dark blue New York Yankees cap.

He paired a white skullcap with a dark blue New York Yankees cap to complete his laid-back look.

The rapper adorned himself with earbuds and a mobile phone, seeming almost inseparable from them as he navigated the terminal.

Accompanied by a sturdy aide, Curtis appeared joyful while readying himself to embark on his flight, seeming keen to return to his native land.

He seemed cheerful, as evidenced by Curtis enthusiastically engaging in conversation with a fan on his path towards a parked vehicle.

In simpler terms, the person wearing an Eminem t-shirt seemed genuinely excited or pleased to be with the well-known rapper.

Additionally, it was reciprocated, as Curtis paused to chat with the fan, then continued walking.

Curtis is set to tear up the screen as Balrog in the upcoming Street Fighter reboot.

As a die-hard fan of the legendary Capcom video game series, I’m absolutely thrilled to share that I’ll be sharing the screen with stars like Jason Momoa, Noah Centineo, Orville Peck, and Eric André in this upcoming film!

Apart from achieving impressive global album sales of around 30 million, the rapper is equally skilled at handling acting roles in front of the camera.

He has a significant body of work in films, such as the semi-autobiographical movie “Get Rich or Die Tryin'” from 2006, and a notable appearance on the acclaimed TV series Power, where he also serves as an executive producer.

Following the instance when Curtis faced backlash on Instagram over his joking remark about Irv Gotti’s passing.

The hip-hop artist, embroiled in a longstanding dispute with Gotti for more than two decades, shared an insensitive homage towards the late entertainment mogul following his death at the age of 54.

In February, he posted a picture showing him relaxing on a couch next to a tombstone engraved ‘Rest in Peace’, with him puffing on a hookah.

‘I’m smoking on dat Gotti pack,’ the rapper wrote, adding, ‘nah God bless him LOL.’

Additionally, he posted a picture of Gotti (born as Irving Lorenzo Jr.), which left no doubt that he was talking about the late Murder Inc. partner in his post.

Certain Instagram users expressed displeasure with the post, with one user commenting, “It seems you’ve reserved a spot in the underworld for yourself! Given your own brush with mortality, such a callous attitude surprises me greatly!

It appeared that the social media post was relating to an incident from May 2000, when a man was shot nine times by a gunman outside of his grandmother’s old residence in South Jamaica, New York City.

Another wrote: ‘Only a devil would mock death… every soul will die.’

Some people might say: “A third pointed out that Cancers, being their star sign, tend to play the small, petty game of waiting.

‘Very very very low. BUT Be careful how you treat people history doesn’t delete itself’

Fellow rapper Bobby Shmurda replied: ‘Yo, this thing is crazy, son.’
