It was also featured in Ridley Scott's 2007 film American Gangster. 50 Cent told NME that 110th Street was the first song with which "he fell in love...because of how the situation was for black people in America at that time, there were a lot of struggle songs around. It seemed to be something that really moved the people around me. I felt the power of music to raise people up; to make them angry or proud."[13]
