He has a number of investments, and actually has a book called "The 50th Law" that breaks it all down.
While details were exaggerated..now that the dust has settled it has been proven that he actually banked over $100 million dollars....AFTER taxes...solely on the deal that he broked through Vitamin Water and his Formula 50 energy drink.
Lots of rappers got lucky, even more of them go bankrupt after blowing all of their coin. This guy is NOT one of them.

I would definitely use that as one way to measure the success of a viral video - numbers numbers numbers and responses!
As for the rest - I really can't be bothered delving any further into it. You like him I think he is a dickhead
