50 Cent Sets Out To Feed 1 Billion African Children By 2016

Curtis James Jackson III, commonly known as rapper 50 Cent, has recently announced his plans of feeding one billion children in Africa by the end of 2016. This will be a part of his “Individual Social Responsibility” project.

Having had a very challenging upbringing himself “fiddy” hopes to give back to the less fortunate, deprived children of the world. He is said to have an approximate net worth of $260 million. 50 has already donated large sums of money to various charities and has been involved with philanthropic activities since 2011.

Street King Energy Drink

50 started the African project by assisting with the launch of Street King (SK) energy drink in collaboration with Pure Growth Partners. Every time someone buys a bottle of Street King a portion of the profit goes towards feeding a less fortunate child in Africa. Now known as the SK Energy Shot, the drink was ranked the number one energy drink product of the year in both 2013 and 2014. The successful company has already provided millions of meals to children living in Africa.

The “Feeding One Billion Children In Africa” project is definitely on the right track and many other companies are joining this amazing social project.

“50 Cent and I share a common vision,” says Chris Clark, founder and CEO of Pure Growth Partners, “To address the world’s growing problems through smart and sustainable business models.”

A Little Background Info On 50 Cent

50 definitely lived a challenging life before being able to be in such a generous position. His mother gave birth to him when she was 15, and then died when he was only 8. 50 went on to live with his grandparents and eventually got into drugs. After all of this hardship, and after his start to rising fame, in 2000, 50 was shot 9 times at close range while getting into his car. Somehow he survived and came out stronger than ever.

50’s life did not start to change until he met Dr. Dre and Eminem, it was from those connections that he really rose above his tough upbringing and made a name for himself. Over the course of 50’s career, he has sold over 30 million albums and has won several awards, including a Grammy Award, 13 Billboard Music Awards, 3 American Music Awards and 4 BET Awards.

It is so great to see that 50 Cent has used his success to give back in such an amazing way. It would be amazing to see more celebrities following in his footsteps! We can all do our part to make the world a better place.

List Of Nigerian Rappers Turned Singers

Considering Fans ,what they want and the current trend in the music industry are key factors in determining the kind of songs artistes will release and the genre those songs will fall .

This list takes a look at Artistes who started off a rap career as rappers but have since transitioned into singing,most of them combining rapping and singing together in their career.

1) Olamide – Olamide hardly took any singing role in his first album ,Rapsodi as he employed the services of the singers and fierced heavily on each track as a full fledged indigenous rapper.
However,going by his next three albums ( YBNL,BGEL and street OT),the rapper has since showcased his versatility by joining the singer/rapper camp in the music industry.

With Tracks like Eleda mi,badoo love,bobo ,melo melo as well as even taking the hooks of songs for other artist,one may be forced to question the genre of music Olamide belongs to, rap or pop??

2) Skales – Call it Frustration,indecision or whatever you call it ,Skales decision to switch genres surely paid off. Starting off at the EME crew as a rapper with singles like heading for the Grammy, ori mi ,monster,could not get skales the desired recognition compared to label mate ,WizKid.

Following his exit from EME,it enabled his full transition to singing as he released The massive hit shake body followed by je kan mo,lole,ijo ayo and countless collabos seeing a turn for good in Skales music career.

3) Reminisce- Reminisce started his career by recording an hardcore rap album at id cabasa coded tunes studio,which was never released.
Later he showed his lyrical prowess as an English rapper on 9ice’s bachelor and ever since featuring 9ice.

” Oh yee rappers ” have moved on to greater things ” signalled the rappers cross over to singing in the hit kako be chicken track.Tesojue,Sunkere,olomoge,i need a girl.agidigbo all goes to prove this new found love of alaga ibile. Like he said in one of his tracks ” punchlines o jawo mo”.

4) Eldee – Eldee the don was one of the members of the defunct trybesmen with fellow rappers.kaboom and freestyle.Soon he went ahead to form trybez records and dropped rap joints like am leaving, we made it,i go yarn and many more

The rapper however gained further prominence with the release of Songs like Bosi Gbangba, Ota mi”,One day”, Category “Wash-wash”, among others and a highly succesaful last album “Undeniable” which were all commercial and mostly pop singles.

5) Ice prince – Iceprince proved himself as a rapper on tracks like Nobody test me,oleku,Efimile remix, and other rap joints. This did not deter iceprince from showcasing his ability to sing in tracks like More,juju,Superstar,boss ft tekno as well as providing hooks for other artist like mode9 ( I see) and many more establishing him as a rapper and singer in the Nigerian music industry.

Interesting!! How Olamide Achieved Stardom Within 4 Short Years

Four years ago, Nigerian singer, Olamide a.k.a Baddo was just some regular kid growing up in the Heart of Lagos Mainland, Bariga. And even though he insists he is still that Bariga boy, we can’t deny that a lot of things has changed in his life.

His Musical Career And How He Rose To Fame

Born Olamide Adedeji on the 15th day in March 1989, Olamide’s journey to success came with hardwork and perseverance. After hustling on the streets of Bariga for several years, Olamide was saved by ID Cabassa who believed in him when nobody else did.

According to him, music took him away from wandering about the streets to doing the right thing at the right time. After waiting for so many years for his single to be promoted, Olamide was finally signed to ID Cabassa’s Coded Tunez Label where he released his debut album Rapsodi in 2011, yielding several singles, with “Eni Duro” as the lead single.

He left early 2012 and started his own record label ‘YBNL Nation’ where he released two of his three albums. Olamide’s debut offering led to collaborations with other artists, including Wizkid, ID Cabasa, 9ice, Reminisce, D’banj, and others. Olamide’s lead single “Eni Duro” made the top chart of requests on radio stations.

Well loved by the guys on the streets, the rapper has endeared himself to so many and still lives in the street in Lagos unlike his mates pushing themselves into big estates. It’s little wonder his name is chanted wherever he goes.

He has been known to perform for free in Lagos and is said to be the biggest Nigerian indigenous rapper/singer ever.

Let us know, Why do you think Nigerians love Olamide so much?

We Appreciate your Comments.

Kanye West: Rapper releases own bible, changes every mention of ‘God’ to ‘Kanye’

Popular and controversial American rapper, Kanye West, has released his own bible called ‘The Book of Yeezus’ - which takes every mention of God and changes it to ‘Kanye’ or ‘Yeezus’.

According to reports, the Yeezus bible is essentially, the Book of Genesis, the first book of the Old Testament.

But rather than crediting God with creating our world, now it reads: "In the beginning Kanye created the heaven and the earth… And Kanye said, Let there be light: and there was light."

As discovered by Consequence of Sound, this 'editorial art piece' has been published by three US-based brothers who are selling the black hardcover book via Etsy for £13.77.

According to the brothers, The Book of Yeezus has not been produced to poke fun or even praise the rapper, but instead offers "a fresh take on what The Bible could look like in our modern world".

"Each generation champions a superstar, so consistently relevant that they come to accompany that generation through it's [sic] evolution, being a part of and ultimately shaping its identity," they wrote. "Such past icons have been the likes of Frank Sinatra, Marilyn Monroe, John Lennon, or Michael Jackson. For this generation, Generation Y, Kanye West is not only its greatest spectacle, but in some senses, a spiritual figure.

"What if the Bible, the most singularly significant publication in the ancient canon of Western tradition, were updated to reflect our modern society? What would it look like? What we came up with was an interventionist art, coffee-table novelty, that will appeal to both Kanye fans everywhere and those made curious by this enormous cultural phenomenon."
