US rapper will play two huge London shows in July

50 Cent has expressed an interest in supporting Eminem at the rapper's two Wembley Stadium gigs in London next month (July).

As reported, the rapper will play two nights at the iconic venue on July 11-12, with Odd Future already confirmed as one of the support acts.

However, in an interview with Gigwise, 50 Cent says he too would like to join the bill and feature on the same line-up as the rapper who gave him his break in the music industry. I think Em is going to be doing something at Wembley," he said. "I'll see what's going on and see if I can get in on that."

50 Cent was signed to Interscope Records and Eminem's Shady/Aftermath label until earlier this year. He released the hugely successful 2003 album 'Get Rich Or Die Tryin'' album on the label, but went independent for the release of new record 'Animal Ambition.'

Eminem's last UK performance came in August 2013 when he headlined the Reading & Leeds Festivals.
