50 Cent‘s classic track “Many Men (Wish Death)” has been given a surprising AI remix featuring the voice of Donald Trump, following the former president’s survival of an assassination attempt in Pennsylvania.

On Saturday (July 13), Trump was grazed in the ear by a bullet after a 20-year-old man named Thomas Matthew Crooks fired a rifle at him from an elevated position during a campaign rally in Butler. Fortunately, Trump survived the incident with minor injuries.
In typical internet fashion, the event quickly became a source of dark humor. An artificial intelligence-generated remix of 50 Cent’s “Many Men” emerged, featuring Trump’s voice replacing 50’s on the iconic Get Rich or Die Tryin’ track, which originally details the rapper’s near-death experiences, including being shot nine times in 2000.
The remix features a computer-generated Trump rapping the intense lyrics: “Many men wish death upon me/ Blood in my eye, dawg, and I can’t see/ I’m tryin’ to be what I’m destined to be/ And n-ggas tryin’ to take my life away.”
50 Cent responded to the incident by sharing a photo of Trump defiantly raising his fist after being hit, with “Many Men (Wish Death)” playing in the background. He captioned the Instagram post: “I know the vibes [palm on face emoji] we are all in trouble now!”
Additionally, the G-Unit leader posted an image of Trump’s head superimposed onto the cover art of Get Rich or Die Tryin’ and commented: “Trump gets shot and now I’m trending [shrugging emoji].” That night, 50 Cent performed the song in Boston, using the edited cover as his backdrop.
In recent news, Kendrick Lamar’s diss track was used by Joe Biden’s campaign to attack Trump in the presidential race.
50 Cent recently shared his perspective on why some Black men might identify with Trump over Biden, despite allegations of racism against the former president. During a visit to Congress, he told CBS News: “I see [Black men] identifying with Trump… because they have RICO charges.”
In the 2020 election, 50 Cent initially endorsed Trump after criticizing Biden’s tax plans, expressing his frustration on social media: “WHAT THE FUCK! (VOTE For TRUMP) IM OUT. FUCK NEW YORK The KNICKS never win anyway. I don’t care Trump doesn’t like black people 62% are you out of ya fucking mind.” However, after facing backlash, he later switched his endorsement to Biden.
