50 Cent: 'Eminem Is like A Grandmother To Me'

US rapper 50 Cent has spoken about his relationship with Eminem, describing the fellow hip-hop star as being like his second grandmother.

The rapper praised Eminem for taking him under his wing – and said working with the rapper was “always a pleasure”.

"When I leave here, I'm actually going back to the States, to Detroit, to work with him again,” he said.

“You know, me and Em, we work really close together. He's like a relative to me. ... He's done something for me. He's like my grandmother.”

“He's someone that provided an opportunity for me to take care of myself when I couldn't take care of myself. My grandma did it when I was a child, and then Em provided the opportunity for me as an adult."

As previously reported, 50 Cent is due to make a special guest appearance on Eminem's new album 'Relapse'.

The album, which has been produced by Dr Dre, is due to be released in the New Year.
