"Disco Inferno" is the first single from 50 Cent's second album, The Massacre. Released in December 2004, the single peaked at #3 in the USA becoming 50 Cent's 5th Top 10 single. The song is produced by Cool & Dre. The music video, which has never been played on MTV but has been leaked out on the Internet, has been 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 a softcore pornography (with bunch of women kissing and appearing nude at the end of the video clip). The video is also on 50 Cent's The Massacre Special Editon.
The song was nominated for Best Rap Solo Performance at the Grammy Awards of 2006, but lost to Kanye West's "Gold Digger" Like his single Candy Shop, Disco Inferno was sometimes played in American danceclubs.
