[lastfm link_type="artist_info"]50 Cent[/lastfm] may have been accused of bullying people like [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Ja Rule[/lastfm] before, but it looks like he’s turned onto a new page by writing a book on bullying!

50 has gotten together with a publisher named Ben Shrank to put together a book called Playground. The book will be a fictional story about a schoolyard bully “who finds redemption as he faces what he’s done.”

50 talks about the book, set to release in January, “I had a strong desire to write ‘Playground‘ because I wanted to explore how a kid becomes a bully. I drew on events from my own childhood and adolescence, but was excited to see the story take on its own life. This book would have been very helpful for me growing up and now that I have a teenage son, it is my goal that this will have a positive influence on all teenagers.”
