Today's Back Pages first take us to Attic Records circa 1983 with members of Teenage Head flanked left to right by Attic principals' Al Mair and Tom Williams. Unsurprisingly, front and centre is the band's manager of the time, the late Jack Morrow. The occasion is a platinum presentation to the boys for successfully selling 100,000 LPs of Frantic City in the market. The classic album included such notables as Somethin' On My Mind, Let's Shake, Infected, and Disgusteen.

The second pic today was taken in 1991, featuring CHUM GM Jim Waters with CARAS President Peter Steinmetz on the occasion of the broadcaster donating $10K as the first of a five-year patronship of the CARAS Academic Support Fund.

50 Cent Talks Debut Novel, Celibacy and Never Getting Married on ‘Late Show’: ‘I’m Not a Happy Hostage’

The rapper also talked about the surprise Dr. Dre drop-in at his 12-year-old son Sire's birthday party.

According to 50 Cent, marriage is good for thee, but not for he. The hip-hop mogul sat down with Stephen Colbert on The Late Show on Wednesday night (Sept. 4) to chop it up about his happily unwedded lifestyle, as well as doubling down on a vow of celibacy he claimed has allowed him to stay super-focused.

“Listen, when you calm down you can focus,” 50 said after Colbert read a recent magazine headline touting the near-billionaire’s sex-free lifestyle. “I’ve been good to me.” Colbert wondered what the money was for then if not to share with the love of his life, with 50 (born Curtin Jackson) explaining, “[Money is] when things start getting complicated, things start getting confusing, ‘cause people come in for different reasons.”
