@50cent @StreetKing
A few weeks back, Russell Simmons and Kanye West hopped out the Maybach to connect with the Occupy Wall Street protest.  It didn’t quite sit well with the 99%.  Learning from their mistakes, 50 Cent occupied his Facebook instead with a rant against corporate greed and world hunger.  The scathing “open letter” was in the context of his efforts to address the problem of hunger with his new energy shot “Street King” which will donate one meal per beverage sold.

The world is so f***** up

People don’t seem to care anymore

People seem to have distanced themselves from other people’s problems, they have been programmed not to care!

Politicians are corrupt…So many companies are corrupt and taking excessive profits in certain sectors…….and we keep allowing this s*** to happen

There are 1 billion plus people living in extreme poverty. You know what that is? You don’t know if your getting your next meal, no shelter, no medical. You have no chance of hustling your way out of it!

We have been programmed to not give a s*** about these people!

Well I have woken up and Im not turning a blind eye anymore!

Im not playing the game anymore. Our Company CEO’s and politicians want us to keep our heads down and not ask questions. Not demand the truth they don’t want us to care, they have trained us to turn a blind eye!

Because they control us and profit from us this way! to push back at them questions and threatens their lifestyles.

Children are dying everyday from hunger. Its f***** up, its wrong and I am angry

Im not going to shut up or give up – f*** the system, its wrong.

wake up we are being used!

Innocent children are dying each day…. we need to shout out to companies, politicians that we aren’t playing their games anymore

We are waking up to their lies and deceitful dealings

Im angry, Im going to make a difference and no one is going to stop me

Join me if your tired of being used and manipulated

Make this world fair for everyone.

Interesting he would use the term “being used.”  I’m not to doubt the benevolence of a man but I’ve always known 50 to be a business-first kind of guy.  It begs the question how authentic his mission to feed the children really is?  Is he motivated by some new revelation of social responsibility or by the ole mighty dollar?  SOUND OFF: Are you buying 50 Cent’s new charitable energy drink strategy?
