50 Cent clears over $2.7 million in two shows for his Final Lap Tour.
Perhaps, one of the greatest rappers of all times, 50 Cent continues to rack huge revenues from his shows despite not releasing any music in years. His Final Lap Tour has been an overt testament of his greatness because in a period where new mainstream rappers have had to either reschedule or cancel their shows, the iconic rapper has recorded a monumental success in his tour. In his two New York shows at the Barclays Center, he reportedly grossed $2.7 million, with 100% of his tickets sold out. Without a doubt, this is a huge feat for the rapper.
