50 Cent’s Finnish tour, which is currently underway, has sparked discussion on Twitter, for example.
The American rap artist 50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis James Jackson, is currently visiting Finland as part of his tour. The first concert was held in Seinäjoki on Tuesday, November 1, and during the coming week he will perform in Turku, Oulu and Kuopio.
Seinäjoki’s gig has caused a lot of discussion on forums and Twitter. Several people have wondered how 50 Cent’s Seinäjoki concert has had so few spectators. The concert was organized on Tuesday at Seinäjoki Areena.
– Here’s a picture from 50 Cent’s gig at Seinäjoki, where they say there were 1,000-2,000 spectators. Where are the approx. 1500 missing from the picture? A Twitter user asks.
People have compared 50 Cent’s concert to, for example, a “school disco”.
– Just like a school disco, one commented.
– In our elementary school Disco, there was more of a gang when the DJ played In Da Club, the other continues, referring to 50 Cent’s hit song.
This year, 50 Cent has performed in Finland no less than twice before, at Blockfests in Tampere and at the ice rink in Helsinki. On Twitter, people also share the experiences of their previous gigs.
– After all, I was at 50 Cent’s gig a month ago at the Stad and there was quite a gang then, says a satisfied gig-goer.
During the last week, the Yankee rapper has performed in Athens, among other places.
– About a week. First Athens and then Seinäjoki, they are talking on Twitter.
Today, November 3, 50 Cent will perform at Oulu Hall in Oulu.
