50 Cent Working On New Headphones After 'Sleek By 50' Got Canned

4:17 p.m. · May 10, 2011 · by Andrew Martin

It was just this past January that 50 Cent appeared on CNBC to properly introduce his new line of cans, Sleek by 50. But apparently the company behind the product, Sleek Audio, pulled out of the deal last week without giving a reason. This hasn't slowed down 50 one bit, though, as he's apparently got a new headphones deal in the works.

The rapper-businessman told All Hip Hop the following:

“As reported, the license arrangement between my company, G-Unit, and Sleek Audio to produce headphones branded as ‘Sleek by 50′ has been cancelled. Instead, I have established a new company that is developing a complete line of audio accessories, including wireless headphones, offering superior sound quality along with cutting edge technology for all music lovers to enjoy. As an artist, I am committed to bringing top-of-the-line audio products to my fans, and I am excited that I have the resources to achieve just that with this new venture.”

We will keep you updated on how and when this will all move forward.

P.S. How corny is my headline? 7/10?
