"Disco Inferno" is the first single from 50 Cent's second album, The Massacre. Although not as big as a global success as "In da Club", the lead single from his first album, "Get Rich Or Die Tryin'", it was still a success in America, peaking at #3 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Background

Released in November 2004, the single peaked at number three in the U.S. becoming 50 Cent's fifth top ten single. The song was produced by C. Styles & Bang Out. The song was nominated for Best Rap Solo Performance at the Grammy Awards of 2006, but lost to Kanye West's "Gold Digger". This song is featured in DJ Hero.

Music video

The music video, which was leaked out on the internet, became controversial for its pornographic content. The video takes place at a strip club and is in black-and-white, and was considered by critics to be softcore pornography (with women kissing and appearing nude at the end of the video clip). Pornstar Daisy Marie appears in the video, and the video is also on 50 Cent's The Massacre Special Edition. Nick Cannon and Young Buck also make an appearance in the video.
