Did he need 82 million?
He’s still hot 🥵 good for FloRida!
I'ma buy some at Costco
I didn’t even know he endorsed them. He can’t be THAT BIG of a reason for their success
Flo Rida now looks like Flow Rider
He probably won’t get all of it,but then again it’s more about sending a message than actually getting $82 million. They cheated on a deal,they should face some accountability
Lol who did he advertise to
He is still a owner in the company even after winning the law suit so he will get more then 80 mill i no it makes u haters mad 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
💰💰💰
Never even new he endorsed it lol I first heard about Celsius from Jonah Hill in a GQ video
Not enough detail from this video but very impressive he won.
🫡 ✊🏾
82 million is crazy , then he throwing it in their face by bringing the drink to court 😭😂
Don't let the corporate effers push you around. Fortunately he could afford the legal team to do so.
Never heard of this rapper this is such a big story for the black people to eat up like bacon 🥓🥓🥓🥓
Remember when Alex Jones was ordered to pay like a billion dollars? 🤣
It sounds like the company tried to buy out his shares at the price they gave them to him form the sponsership. The problem is that the whole hard seltzer industry blew tf up in like 2020. So now the value of these shares probably went up like 10 fold.
Tease.
He make more now then he made in hip hop wasn't that famous 😂
Wow that story explains so much…… not
BLACK MAN WINNING!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
THIS WORLD IS SHUTTING DOWN. HALLELUJAH!
ONLY WHAT YOU DO FOR CHRIST WILL LAST! 🙏🏼🙌🏼👏🏼❤️
Had no idea he even promoted it lol
They did pay him and sounds like he got greedy?
I have no clue who this dude is never heard of him but heard and love Celsius- ego much?
Lol, another broke rapper lookin for money and he definitely found some if its paid out to him.
Yea guy works real hard for that 82 million , never heard of this drink or seen flo with a can. Nurses are weeping at his hardship!
Good for him.
Imagine holding a drink can , claiming you are owed 82 million dollars, and saying it's because you worked for it. Blacks are something else.
Fun fact he doesn't curse in his music and kept his promises to his mother after the success he's a gangsta and a gentleman
Bro secured the 💼
Celsius doesn’t have that kind of money to pay
Artic vibes taste baddd. Prob the worst flavor im9
Didn't he already received 250 000 stocks? Wasn't that the compensation?
Oh wow
I'm glad to hear this. It's just another instance that proves that this country's success rests on the backs of blacks. Everytime they want to sell something, they use us to promote it and then either offer us pennies or no pay at all. I guess they didn't get the memo that slavery is over. Now winning is one thing, actually getting the money is a whole other monster!
