After being shot in New Jersey, Lil Tjay remixed 50 Cent’s “Many Men,” which is from 50 Cent’s 2003 debut album Get Rich or Die Tryin’.
Tjay put out his own version of “FACESHOT” on YouTube this weekend, and the accompanying artwork showed Tjay’s head on 50’s body from the Get Rich or Die Tryin’ album cover. The song talked about the shooting and the triggerman, and also said that the 21-year-old had recovered from being shot seven times.
On the song Lil TJay rapped, “Type of guy try to take sum’ from me? Boy, you high / And I ain’t sayin’ he the suspect, but lil homie out an eye / All streets rules apply, I got hit, ain’t wonder why / All quiet, all I know is when they see me it’s goodbye.” He also said on the track, “I know many men, out there wanna get me, tell ’em ‘bend again’ / Never on no scary shit, not afraid like Eminem / Singin’ n-gga, but you sleep on me that be your flaw / Lettin’ me live that was stupid, must think one plus two is four.”
Before releasing the remix Lil Tjay wrote, “This what ya wanted lmaoo[.] Guess it’s time to shake sh## up[.] I woke up feeling like @50cent , yk what that means[.] after this ima just go mainstream on ya. Fu%k around get my teeth done and sh##[.] go get that movie money what ya think #power?”
