Fiddy is now cooperating with authorities involving the fire investigation

It’s going to get really intersting now.

The other day, there were reports circulating that 50 has failed to talk to authorities and that he was basically blowing them off. However, his rep spoke to PerezHilton.com on Thursday and this is what they had to say:

50 and his attorneys met yesterday (Wednesday) with Suffolk County authorities regarding the fire that destroyed 50’s house. The meeting had been arranged weeks ago. 50 is eager to review the findings of the investigation, when it is concluded.

I still say she did it or someone she knew did it. It’s showtime now though.

So when we’re talking business, I think it’s only right to refer to these two moguls by their govt. names.

As I was reading online, I saw that Fiddy knocked Jigga out of the number one spot on the Forbes Hip Hop Cash Kings list. According to Forbes, Jay fell to number two this year after being number one in 2007. They’re saying that Jay made just $82 million in the last 12 months whereas Fiddy made $150 million, $100 million after taxes.

A huge chunk of that ($100 million after taxes) came from the sale of 50’s stake in VitaminWater, but he also raked in millions from his G-Unit clothing line and record label, his movie projects, video games and sales of Curtis. He could be primed for a repeat next year as well, if his joint venture with South African mining billionaire Patrice Motsepe pans out and produces the expected 50 Cent-branded line of platinum bling.

You may not like this man but I mean really! Respect his grind; his business; his hustle.
