"'''In Da Club'''" is a song by American rapper [[50 Cent]] from his debut studio album ''[[Get Rich or Die Tryin']]'' (2003). Written by 50 Cent alongside producers [[Dr. Dre]] and [[Mike Elizondo]], the song, which uses an unconventional off-beat rhythm, was released to digital download in the United States on January 7, 2003, as the album's [[lead single]] and peaked at number one on the US [[Billboard Hot 100|''Billboard'' Hot 100]], becoming 50 Cent's first number-one single.

"In Da Club" received praise from critics; at the [[46th Grammy Awards]], it was nominated for [[Best Male Rap Solo Performance]] and [[Grammy Award for Best Rap Song|Best Rap Song]]. The accompanying music video for "In Da Club" won [[MTV Video Music Award for Best Rap Video|Best Rap Video]] and [[MTV Video Music Award for Best New Artist|Best New Artist]] at the [[2003 MTV Video Music Awards]]. In 2009, the song was listed at number 24 in ''[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]''{{'}}s Hot 100 Songs of the Decade.<ref name=US100Decade-End/> It was listed at number 13 in ''[[Rolling Stone]]''{{'}}s "Best Songs of the Decade".

==Background==
After 50 Cent was discovered by fellow rapper [[Eminem]] in 2002, he flew to Los Angeles where he was introduced to record producer [[Dr. Dre]].<ref>{{cite magazine|title=Cover Story: The Life of a Hunted Man|url=https://www.rollingstone.com/news/story/5939379/the_life_of_a_hunted_man/1|magazine=Rolling Stone|publisher=Wenner Media|access-date=July 21, 2012|author=Touré|author-link=Touré (journalist)|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090505195936/http://www.rollingstone.com/news/story/5939379/the_life_of_a_hunted_man/1|archive-date=May 5, 2009|url-status=dead|date=April 3, 2009}}</ref> "In da Club" was the first of seven tracks he recorded in five days with Dr. Dre. 50 Cent described the studio sessions, saying: {{blockquote|Dre, he'll play dope beats ... [He'll say], 'These are the hits, 50. So pick one of these and make a couple of singles or something.' The very first time he heard [me rap on] 'In Da Club' he said, 'Yo, I didn't think you was going to go ''there'' with it, but, you know, it works.' He was probably thinking of going in a different direction with that song. Then he expanded it into a hit record.<ref>{{cite web |first=Reid |last=Shaheem |date=February 12, 2003 |url=http://www.mtv.com/bands/123/50_Cent/news_feature_021203/index3.jhtml |title=50 Cent: Money to Burn |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070703100400/http://www.mtv.com/bands/123/50_Cent/news_feature_021203/index3.jhtml |archive-date=July 3, 2007 |website=MTV |access-date=July 5, 2007 |url-status=dead}}</ref>}}

The production was originally given to the hip-hop group [[D12]], but was passed on to 50 Cent because the group did not know how to approach the song.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.complex.com/music/2013/05/10-famous-beats-rappers-passed-on/d12-in-da-club|title=D12 Passed on "In da Club" - 10 Famous Beats Rappers Passed On - Complex|author=Edwin Ortiz|work=Complex|access-date=May 12, 2013|archive-date=June 25, 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130625190709/http://www.complex.com/music/2013/05/10-famous-beats-rappers-passed-on/d12-in-da-club|url-status=dead}}</ref> He recorded the track with only the drum beat present.

Video clips from [[Eminem]]'s single "[[Without Me (Eminem song)|Without Me]]" are seen playing in the entrance on flat-screen TVs. Eminem and [[Dr. Dre]] are seen looking down at the lab from a lab balcony with windows. 50 Cent is introduced by hanging upside down from a gym roof. Atwell commented, "I think I could have done better with it, but I really liked the way that it turned out".<ref name=MTV/> The video also contains a shooting range, which Atwell deemed appropriate because 50 Cent had been shot nine times. He said, "creatively, I felt like we were able to put guns in a video and have it play. And I like it when you are able to play within the standards and still give the artist something symbolic of what they are going for."<ref name=MTV/>

The video ends with the camera zooming out of the club to reveal a [[two-way mirror]] with [[Eminem]] and [[Dr. Dre]] in white lab uniforms, observing 50 Cent and taking notes. Atwell stated that "seeing 50 with Dre and Em having his back is as big a visual statement as it is a musical statement" and the shot was significant because it made clear the club was inside the center and not unrelated performance footage.<ref name=MTV/> On January 27, 2003, the video debuted on [[MTV]]'s ''[[Total Request Live]]'' at number nine and stayed on the chart for fifty days.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://atrl.net/trlarchive/?s=debuts |title=The TRL Archive |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090423075716/http://www.atrl.net/trlarchive/?s=debuts |archive-date=April 23, 2009 |website=ATRL |access-date=June 11, 2009 |url-status=dead}}</ref> It also reached number one on the ''[[MuchMusic]]'' video charts.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://universalurban.com/50cent |title="50 Cents' new album, Curtis, takes Hip-Hop to the bank" |access-date=July 5, 2007 |url-status=usurped |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070606030329/http://universalurban.com/50cent |archive-date=June 6, 2007 }}.

==Lawsuit==
In January 2006, 50 Cent was sued for [[copyright infringement]] by former [[2 Live Crew]] manager Joseph Weinberger, who owns the rights to the rap group's catalog. He claimed that 50 Cent [[plagiarized]] the lines "it's your birthday" from the eponymous second track of former 2 Live Crew frontman [[Luther Campbell]]'s 1994 album ''[[Freak for Life|Freak for Life 6996]]'' (also known simply as ''Freak for Life'').<ref>Associated Press (January 21, 2006).
