According to the 30BG boss, his billionaire father, Adedeji Adeleke, had taken him and his siblings to Vegas to celebrate his brother’s 21st birthday. However, because of Davido’s age at the time, he could not join them to participate in the activities and left them to have their fun.

In his words:

“The first time I ever saw 50 Cent, I was a kid in Vegas. I was like ‘can I have a picture?’ he was like ‘no!’, he looked at me and said ‘no!’ I was a kid, my brother was turning 21 so my dad took everybody to Vegas but I was 14 and couldn’t do anything so they were doing their own thing, and I saw them in the lobby. I actually used to love Lloyd Banks, that was actually my fave, so I saw him and I went to him and took a picture with him. Then I saw 50 Cent and I went to him, and with my Nigerian accent I was like ‘Wow! 50 Cent I love you, can I have a picture?” he was like ‘No!’ and just walked off.”
