Donald Trump walks out to 50 Cent’s ‘Many Men’ on Adin Ross livestream despite producer’s objections
Donald Trump walked onto an Adin Ross livestream to 50 Cent’s ‘Many Men (Wish Death)’ despite the track’s producer having made his objections to Trump’s use of the track clear.
With Trump in the thick of his presidential campaign, he joined Adin Ross’ Kick livestream on Monday (August 5) to speak to first-time Gen Z voters. He walked out to 50 Cent’s 2003 track, and received a standing ovation.
However, Darrell ‘Digga’ Branch, the song’s producer, recently told TMZ that he didn’t want Trump to use the track – despite streams of the song going up by 250 per cent as a result of its virality following the assassination attempt on Trump last month.
50 – real name Curtis Jackson – performed the song in Boston, Massachusetts, last Sunday (August 4) and projected his ‘Get Rich Or Die Tryin’ album cover with Trump’s face photoshopped.
Digga explained that he was happy with the track’s resurgence – unless Trump was to use it in his campaign.

Meanwhile, Trump mentioned Young Thug – real name Jeffery Williams – in his interview, his team informing him that the rapper, who is currently incarcerated, has been treated unfairly. Williams has complained about his conditions for a couple of years, while a judge was removed from the case for improperly denying him bond.
Trump said, “I hear Young Thug — I heard the name, I heard it from other people where they say he’s being treated unfairly. He’s gotta be treated fairly.”

Trump also discussed Kanye West, now known as Ye. “He’s very complicated,” Trump said of West. “Let’s say complicated because he is. He’s a really nice guy, but he can get some people into trouble. He’s got a good heart — he does, he does, but he’s complicated.”
Towards the end of the interview, Trump did his signature dance move for TikTok, while Ross gifted him a custom Cybertruck wrapped with the USA flag and a photo of Trump in the immediate aftermath of his assassination attempt.
