All 50 Cent wanted was to see his son, and now he’ll get his chance.
Amidst a feud with his ex-girlfriend, Shaniqua Tompkins, and after a clean court-ordered drug test on Thursday, 50 Cent has finally been granted an unrestricted vacation period with his son, Marquise, from Aug 3-12.
For Shaniqua Tompkins, mother of Marquise, the test came up positive for opiates. In her defense, Tompkins had recently been taking cough medicine.
The custodial issues between 50 and Tompkins arose in April, and exploded after their Dix Hills, New York mansion was set ablaze in May. Tompkins and Marquise, 11, escaped through a second-floor window while 50 cent was in Louisiana. Subsequently, Tompkins publicly blamed 50 for the suspicious fire, which is currently under investigation, and has secured a restraining order against him. Both parties previously quarreled over putting the 5,200 square foot home in Tompkins’ name, while 50 reportedly demanded $4,500 in rent with threats of eviction circulating.
Prior to the court hearing, 50 filed a $20 million defamation lawsuit against Tompkins for the accusations last month. Though he’s able to see his son, the legal battles between 50 and Tompkins have yet to be put to rest.

50 Cent is gonna do what ever it takes to stay on top. And on that note, I'm glad he gets to spend some time with his son. It's good to see and hear that a man (not just a black man) fighting to see his child. 50 Cent is gonna be who he is and I'm not mad at that. Ain't none of us perfect unless you think your the higher power of all, but the situation about men in general taking care of their responsibiltiy like their damn kids is a very big problem today. Keep hope alive and let's give this man some credit for doing the right thing and not the wrong by saying f**k it. He decided to fight for his son......
