Black and White, 50 and De Niro in Vibe
This is the coffee and cream of gangsta communities. Appearing in the hip hop magazine’s main cover is Robert Mario De Niro Jr., known as “Bobby Milk” who gained worldwide fame due to his slick Vito Corleone act in The Godfather 2, and Curtis James Jackson III represented as “50 Cent,” famous for his rap albums and having survived nine gunshot wounds in 2000.
They’re the elite ones. They don’t even need a large cigar stick or well-pressed tux suits. So what makes them different?
Ghetto Fifty has an interesting childhood. He began dealing cocaine at a very young age of 14 but rose to prominence shortly after he began distributing the now-legendary mixtapes. The heated argument of whether it was five or nine bullets that he survived also contributed to his reputation. The Slim Shady artist has his own group, the “G-Unit,” which is composed of Young Buck and Lloyd Banks. They make beats like fire. Heads up!
As one of Hollywood’s finest and award winning actors, Robert De Niro never fails to capture audiences with his excellent performance in movies. He is usually stereotyped in multi-millionaire gang leader roles and without struggling to internalize, his onscreen appearance is portrayed as though it’s his inner character.
Great collaboration. It just basically shows the thin line between white and black Americans. But whatever color it is, whatever race, these two celebrities personify what being a gangster is all about.
