Marquise Jackson | Before They Were Famous | Why 50 Cent Disown His Own Son?

Published: Oct. 20, 2022, 7:10 p.m.

Before getting wrapped up in a rivalry with his own father, Marquise Jackson was born on October 13th, 1997 to parents 50 Cent and Shaniqua Tompkins. Upon his kid\u2019s birth, the world-famous rapper would credit his son for totally changing his outlook on life. A noble intent to be sure, but one that wouldn\u2019t exactly come to fruition. During Marquise\u2019s early years, however, everything seemed to be going great. Not only would he regularly model for 50 Cent\u2019s G-Unit clothing line, but he\u2019d even walk the runway side-by-side with his pops on a few occasions as well. In 2009, when Marquise was only 12, Shaniqua would sue her former spouse, claiming he had gone back on his promise to \u201clook after\u201d her for life. As the subsequent court case unfolded, the judge would wind up dismissing Shanqiua\u2019s demands for $50 Million, instead ordering the hip-hop mogul to provide around $25,000 per month in child support to Shaniqua until Marquise\u2019s 18th Birthday in 2015 while also calling the feud between these former partners, \u201can unfortunate tale of a loving relationship gone sour.\u201d
