50 Cent has never been bashful about expressing his gratitude towards Eminem. He showered his former boss with high praise during his interview with Gigwise, where he referred to the 8 Mile rapper as "special" to the hip hop culture.

"Em is so special to our culture and no one really gives him the credit for it," 50 Cent says. "When they cast a film, they find people who are representations of the audience watching, so when you understand who's actually consuming Hip Hop culture, it's not the guy who's in my neighborhood."

In addition, 50 Cent expressed his desire to perform with Em at Wembley Stadium.

"I think Em is going to be doing something at Wembley," he says. "I'll see what's going on and see if I can get in on that."

Odd Future is expected to serve as openers for Eminem's epic show in London.

50 Cent just recently released his new album Animal Ambition last week  and has plans of releasing his next project Street King Immortal in September. Don't worry, 50 plans on dropping a reunion project with G-Unit as well, slated for a November release.
