Get Rich or Die Tryin' (2005)

Determined to leave his criminal days behind, inner-city drug dealer Marcus (50 Cent, aka Curtis Jackson) pursues the one thing that inspires him -- rap music -- and on his life-altering journey, the aspiring artist runs into tough times. Viola Davis and Terrence Howard co-star in director Jim Sheridan's gritty urban drama about a dope-peddling street punk who sets out to turn his life around through music.
