Qānūn-i panjāhum: Persiska (Farsi) 1398

The 50th Rule is a New York Times bestselling book about strategy and fearlessness co-written by rapper Fifty Cent and author Robert Greene. The book is a semi-autobiographical account of Fifty Cent's rise as both a young urban hustler and a successful fledgling musician, with lessons and anecdotes from historical figures such as Abraham Lincoln, Sun Tzu, Socrates, Napoleon, Malcolm X, and ... James Baldwin. Each of the book's 10 chapters explains an aspect of fearlessness, beginning with how Fifty Cent learned this fearless philosophy in Southside Queens. The 50th Rule was the result of friendship and mutual admiration between Fifty Cent and Robert Greene. Green's book, The 48 Laws of Power, which has long been considered a staple in the hip-hop world, caught the attention of Fifty Cent, who asked his manager to arrange meetings with Green. Green said he was amazed by Fifty Cent's personality and was impressed by his "Zen-like calm". The two began working on a book project that would combine their two worlds. According to Greene, Fifty Cent is an example of what Machiavelli called the New Prince, a leader who emerges in times of chaos and rewrites the rules.
