The singer said five years later, he would be gracing one of the biggest music venues alongside 50 Cent.

“50, (referring to 50 Cent) hey, can I take a picture with you, and he said ‘no’ in response. And I was like waoh, but fast forward to five years later and I am on the same stage with him,” he said.
