MENEJA WA 50 CENT AFARIKI

: MediaTakeOut.com is sad to report that 50 manager Chris Lighty passed away earlier today. He was found outside his childhood Bronx, NY apartment - where he no longer lived - with a single gunshot wound to the head and a gun beside his body. Police suspect a suicide.

Here's what TMZ is adding:

According to sources close to Lighty, the hip hop mogul had been in an argument with his ex-wife and shot himself in the head.

We're told the couple got divorced last year and Lighty hadn't been the same since.

Chris is known in the industry as being one of the most INNOVATIVE business people hip hop has ever known. He's credited for putting together the Vitamin Water deal that brought Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson in excess of $50 MILLION.

HE WILL TRULY BE MISSED. REST IN PEACE BIG HOMIE!!
