Smart water was a gimmick.
Traveling to Somalia and providing food for the needy, that's good a good look.
It goes to show that there's another level of existence and self awareness when you become ultra rich, contrary to popular belief.
It's not about buying and balling, giving back to other's can be the ultimate feeling.

Not a fan of 50's music anymore but this is definitely dope.
You hardly ever see a rapper of his stature doing anything like this, so it's definitely nice to see. He's made more than enough money to just kick back and do whatever he wants for the rest of his life but the fact that not only is he providing meals for these people, he is actually IN Somalia witnessing it and taking it in first hand

I don't doubt that there is some intrinsically bubbly feeling that he gets, but you only mentioned "Smart Water" as if it was the only gimmick hes had.
Did you forget about "Street King"?
His energy drink? He said for every Facebook like he got he would donate a meal to poor kids.
I mean, while it ultimately helps the less fortunate, I can't help but feel like hes taking advantage of others for solely his benefit with the proximinal benefit of others.
It just seemed more disingenuous than anything.
But props for him getting the media involved and showing him following through with his commitment.

50 seems like a pretty good dude
That little girl putting him on spot was hella awkward though

I have to disagree when you called this a gimmick
Dude hasnt been relevant much in the music industry. If anything i look at dude lately as a businessman.
So theres really no need for him to build any "buzz" by going on this trip
If it was just for publicity he would have stopped his effort after the UN denied his donation, according to the vid.
But all that aside, props to 50.

Come on bro don't do this. At the end of the day he could of went about promoting himself in a bunch of ways but he chose to do it in a way that also helps out others. Cant really hate who cares if he got the media involved and wanted people to know he did it, he still did it.

That's a good look, but he's using it to pump his SK brand up. More SK=more $$

I STILL do not believe ALL of the profit is going towards this. Regardless of what gimmick he throws out there, 50 is a business man.
