Pauly D Confirms G-Unit Deal With 50 Cent

The Jersey Shore reality star is set to be the latest member of 50 Cent’s G-Unit team…

DJ Pauly D of the MTV hit show Jersey Shore is definitely seeing his hard work pay off these days.

The reality TV star is not only the opening act for Britney Spears’s Femme Fatale tour alongside Nicki Minaj, his pending three-album deal with 50 Cent’s G-Unit powerhouse, which will also allegedly include the release of a Pauly D-branded headphones, should be finalized very soon, the disc jockey tells XXL.

“I would say the end of the year,” Pauly says about when the deal will be sealed.

When asked how he and 50 first came together, Pauly says, “50 cent has also been somebody I look up to. We ended up linking up and we just clicked. We hit it off immediately with the music and everything like that. So, I’m definitely gonna be working with him. There’s been talks about the album and the headphones. I’m looking forward to working with that as well.”

Pauly D also has a spin-off show scheduled to premiere soon on MTV, which will chronicle his DJing career. —Mariel Concepcion

    aint nun wrong with hip hop we need to expand and stop focusing it only to one race cuz if we dnt the world not goin take hip hop seriously and thts a fact

      nah he’s corny…a gimmick….. this has nothing to do with race.. There are several rappers who weren’t black that were embraced and respected by the community and took the culture seriously… Starting with the beastie boys,followed by 3rd bass,Everlast,Then Cypress Hill,House of Pain,Em, Bubba Sparks,Pun, Fat Joe,Yelawolf… There has been expansion however this dude right here is a gimmick.. I can’t take him seriously….Hell David Faustino from married with children could spit. But this guy….I’m not buying it…. he has to show and prove

        This is purely one of the best business moves anyone can make… he has his own tv show on mtv! and hes a DJ not a rapper youdumb schmucks… david guetta uis a dj… proves my point
