There are music announcements, and then there are moments that make fans stop scrolling. 50 Cent delivered one of those surprises when he appeared on Today<\/em> <\/a>and revealed that he has a brand new song featuring Eminem and 2Pac on the way. Considering one of those artists has been gone for nearly three decades, it’s the kind of news that immediately gets people talking.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The collaboration is set to appear on the soundtrack for the upcoming Street Fighter<\/em> movie, adding another major moment to a franchise that already has plenty of excitement surrounding it. Even more intriguing is that 50 Cent says 2Pac’s vocals are authentic, coming from unreleased recordings instead of artificial intelligence.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

A Big Reveal on National Television<\/h3>\n
\n

While appearing on Today<\/em> to promote his upcoming STARZ series Fightland<\/em>, 50 Cent casually dropped one of the biggest music announcements of the year.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Speaking about the new track, he described it as “the theme for Street Fighter, the movie” and said it “will be coming out shortly,” suggesting fans will hear it before the film arrives in theaters on October 16.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The announcement instantly raised anticipation. Although movie soundtracks often feature exclusive collaborations, this pairing stands out because it brings together three generations of hip-hop history in a way fans have never officially heard before.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

2Pac’s Vocals Come From Unreleased Recordings<\/h3>\n
\n

Whenever a late artist appears on a new song today, one question usually comes up first. Was artificial intelligence involved?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

50 Cent made sure to answer that before anyone else could ask.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

He stressed that 2Pac’s vocals are not AI-generated. Instead, they come directly from the legendary rapper’s unreleased catalog.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

“We worked on it, and got it right,” Fif said, before adding that Tupac’s family and estate “loved it.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

That detail could make all the difference for longtime fans. The use of original recordings, along with the approval of Tupac’s estate, gives the collaboration an added level of authenticity.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

A Historic Team-Up With Eminem<\/h3>\n
\n

Even though Eminem and 50 Cent have worked together for more than two decades, Eminem has never officially released a commercial song with 2Pac.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

That makes this collaboration especially significant.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The connection between Eminem and 2Pac goes back years. Eminem has often spoken about the influence Tupac had on him as both a rapper and songwriter.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

In a 2015 interview with Rolling Stone<\/a><\/em>, Eminem explained exactly why 2Pac left such a lasting impression.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

“He was taking things further than a lot of rappers at the time … pushing it to the next level as far as giving feeling to his words and his music,” Eminem said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Now, fans will finally get to hear Eminem and 2Pac share the same official release, with 50 Cent serving as the bridge between two of hip-hop’s biggest icons.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

A Promise That Finally Became Reality<\/h3>\n
\n

This announcement did not come completely out of nowhere.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Back in December, 50 Cent hinted that he wanted Eminem involved with the Street Fighter<\/em> soundtrack. At the time, he posted on Instagram, “I’m gonna get @eminem on deck to make some music for this movie Street Fighter. New Music on the way!”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

At the time, it sounded like an ambitious plan. Now, it appears he followed through.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

If everything arrives as promised, fans won’t have to wait much longer to hear what the trio created before Street Fighter<\/em> hits theaters this fall.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Stepping Into the World of Street Fighter<\/em><\/h3>\n
\n

50 Cent is doing more than contributing music to the reboot. He also plays Balrog, one of the franchise’s most recognizable fighters.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

He joins a cast packed with familiar names, including Jason Momoa, Noah Centineo, Orville Peck, and Roman Reigns.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

With a high-profile cast, a major video game franchise, and a soundtrack that now includes one of the most unexpected rap collaborations in recent memory, Street Fighter<\/em> is giving audiences another reason to keep an eye on its October release.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Whether fans are excited about the movie, the music, or both, one thing is already clear. A new collaboration featuring 50 Cent, Eminem, and 2Pac was not on many people’s bingo cards for this year, but it may end up being one of the most talked-about hip-hop releases tied to a film in a long time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
