Rapper 50 Cent and civil rights attorney Ben Crump are advocating for greater minority representation in the flourishing alcohol industry in America. The dynamic duo believe that Black people are being excluded from billions of dollars in potential revenue.
On Wednesday, the rap star with a Diamond-selling album and the civil rights attorney will collaborate with other Congressional leaders in Washington D.C. at the Rayburn House Office Building.

Our aim is to convene and strategize on ways to counteract the prevalent trend of large corporations suppressing the growth of Black-owned businesses, with the ultimate goal of narrowing the wealth divide.
According to Crump, 50 Cent has showcased remarkable business skills in both his music and television careers, which can pave the way for Black entrepreneurs. This has been reflected in the success of his company, Sire Spirits.
