The show is part of Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson's global "the Final Lap" tour which celebrates the 20th anniversary of his debut album and magnum opus Get Rich or Die Tryin'.

A press release touting the tour said 50 will perform "dozens of fan-favorite and chart-topping hits along with select tracks that have not been performed live in decades."

Jackson will be supported on the tour by Busta Rhymes, and in North America by singer-songwriter Jeremih.

Presale tickets for the Tuscaloosa show will be available to Verified fans Wednesday and to the general public that Friday at 10 a.m. on ticketmaster.com and at the Amphitheater box office.
