    Queens, NY rapper 50 Cent may have good reason to brag on his new single "Straight to the Bank."

    Glacéau, the company that produces vitaminwater, was acquired by The Coca-Cola Company today (May 25) for $4.1 billion dollars in cash.

    50 Cent invested in Glacéau in 2004 and owns 10% of the company.

    Sources told AllHipHop.com that Coca-Cola's purchase of Glacéau earned the rapper an estimated $400 million dollars.

    Glacéau markets and sells popular energy drinks named vitaminwater.

    The company markets and distributes a grape flavored energy drink inspired by 50 Cent named "Formula 50."

    Man, it's basically nothing more than flavored water. Why do people buy it?

    successful rappers aren't as dumb as their music. They make products, not art (usually).
