50 Cent, one of the rap industry's most popular and high selling artists, is said to be entering the world of technology and is currently holding negotiations with Steve Jobs, the CEO of Apple Computers, to produce a product line of affordable home computers, mainly targetting inner-city residents.
According to a recent article in Forbes, 50 Cent, born Curtis Jackson and his high powered manager Chris Lighty of Violator management, are negotiating the branding deal with the computer /software giant.

"I'm creating a foundation that will be around for a long time, because fame can come and go or get lost in the lifestyle and the splurging," Fifty Cent explained to Forbes. "I never got into it for the music. I got into it for the business."
"He [Jobs] is setting a new standard in the music business," Lighty added. "Let's just say we get each other." |
The company hopes to close the gap between sales in iPods, which have earned over $3 billion verse $2 billion from software and personal home computer sales.
