When you are allegedly worth $200 million dollars and counting, bad days are few and far between. Since his explosive rise to fame 50 Cent has had a serious winning streak that would rival the Miami Heat’s back to back championship seasons.
This includes a groundbreaking mixtape series, Get Rich Or Die Trying, the G-Unit empire, ThisIs50.com, his very profitable investment in Vitamin Water and more.
But as of recent, he hasn’t had it so easy. Just as of this week 50 lost a lawsuit against his Sleek Audio resulting in a judgment for an undisclosed amount. 50 Cent has since claimed racism played a role in the decision.
While Fif’ is most likely going to keep a healthy bank account intact, it is clear he is no longer bulletproof. Here is a look back at 50 Cent’s biggest fails.
