I basically ripped this straight from Thisis50.com but I don't care because this is the biggest pile of bullsh*t I've ever heard Fifty try to serve the media:
On his new energy shot "Street King"...
The Wall Street Journal reports:
Hip-hop star Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson launched his latest project, an energy shot called "Street King," at the Hudson Hotel on Wednesday evening. "It kind of reflects my lifestyle," the rapper explained, of the flavored, caffeinated drink. "It's for the guy who decides he wants to go to the nightclub, but he has school tomorrow. In college. He'll need it. You know?"
No, I don't know. GTFOH Man! Fifty, you haven't been in a real classroom as a student since you were 14 or 15. I love you, but naa buddy, nothing about this drink reflects your lifestyle besides the name. Also, the college guy who decides to go to the club but has class in the morning doesn't need an energy shot. Give
him two Excedrin, an Adderall, and two glasses of water and his hangover will be done in no time.
On the really bright side, a percent of proceeds from the drink will go to support the World Food Programme. In fact, 50 - who wrote a check that supplied 2.5 Million meals - says his overall goal with "Street King" is to supply a billion meals. Now that's what I'm talking about man! Philanthropy is cool! If you want the drink to sell, just tell people what it's really about.
