The way the deal went down is that he did some promotion for them and in lieu of cash, he took stock options. The company was then bought by Coca Cola inc and he received a buyout from Coke.

Glad I was able to be somewhat apart of the beginning of Vitamin Water's success...

I like it its very healthy. It doesn't have all that artificial flavoring & unnecessary sugars in it... My favorite is the pomegranate flavored one..Its very low calorie.It still sells well.

50 Cent Making Half A Billion

50 Cent's multi-million dollar deal with Vitamin Water

“By 2004, 50 Cent was undoubtedly one of the world's biggest pop stars. But it took some amount of convincing on Oza's part to overcome the trepidation of Glaceau CEO Darius Bikoff and president Mike Repole. 50 Cent's association with gunplay presented a problem: What if their chief spokesperson ended up dead in a rap beef?

But the 50 Cent who showed up for his first meeting with Bikoff was surprisingly different from the rapper's public image: calm, respectful and deliberate, without too many flamboyant flourishes. Lighty was the rapper's perfect business complement.


In the weeks and months thereafter, Lighty and Oza hammered out the terms of a deal. 50 Cent would take a stake in the privately owned company, one that would graduate over time and escalate if the company hit certain numbers.

The two entities - 50 Cent on one hand and Glaceau on the other - signed an agreement of mutual confidentiality. Still, word got around that Lighty had negotiated something close to, but not more than, 10 percent of the value of the company.”

Chris Lighty & 50 Cent

Fif and Lighty were instrumental in the flavoring and details of the G-Unit boss endorsed beverage.

“Oza presented the [50 and Lighty] with several flavor options for Formula 50. For Chris Lighty, the choice was simple. Despite the high-minded science of Glaceau, their product was basically a smarter, more upscale, more aspirational version of the ultimate ghetto beverage on which Lighty and 50 had grown up: the "quarter-waters" sold in every bodega, deli and convenience store from Queens to Compton.

The quarter-waters (so named because they once cost 25 cents) were just like the Kool-Aid everybody drank at home. But nobody drank wild flavors like strawberry and kiwi in the 'hood. They drank grape. Formula 50 had to be grape.”

I'm not hating, but dude ain't cute. But his body is pretty decent. He'd make an okay weekend fuck buddy, but he ain't got it like that to be my main squeez. lol

And women see money and lose all their morals. How else does Shaq's big ugly ass lands his women?

So has has Jay Z, Diddy, Lil Wayne, Mystikal, Snoop Dog, Dr. Dre, must I go on?? There FAMOUS RAPPERS with MONEY. If they were regular guys on the street I they wouldnt get the same attention. Diddy is aight but none of them are attractive.

Most rappers sleep with multiple women and can pull any because of WHO THEY ARE and because they make bank. The looks dont play a factor at all if your a celebrity they are willing to pay you through college just for a fuck.

I have two more years left in undergrad, which is about 30k. I would love a sugardaddy to pay my tuition and fees. He can be 80, I don't give a shit. He can do whatever he wants to me. razz
