A judge has ordered 50 Cent to pay the headphone company Sleek more than $16 million according to Radar Online. These legal issues have been going on for a while even back in 2013 Sleek sued 50 because he was set to work with Sleek and invested $1 million to start his line of headphones though them. But 50 started to develop Sync by 50 with another company that Sleek says featured “basically the same design, mechanically” as the previous line developed by 50. Sleek also went after him for “misappropriating trade secrets, breaching his fiduciary duty owed to sleek, participating in a civil conspiracy, breaching his confidentiality agreement with Sleek, and being unjustly enriched,” according to Radar Online. So all in all it amounted to $16 million and though he tried to avoid paying the debt he ending up having to when the court finally ordered him to.
