"I Get Money"
Song

"I Get Money" was the third single from 50 Cent's upcoming third album, Curtis.[1] The song contains samples of Lil' Flip's song "I Get Money", Cassidy's "I'm a Hustla", and Audio Two's "Top Billin'". Although the track was a promotional single, it was also the official remix for 50 Cent's previous single, "Straight to the Bank".[2] The song was produced by Apex.[3] Initially, Scott Boogie was credited as the producer of the song,[3] however, it was later discovered that Scott Boogie actually stole the beat from Apex.[3] In the song, 50 Cent talks about the Glacéau acquisition by The Coca-Cola Company, he raps:

I take quarter water, sold it in bottles for two bucks. Coca-Cola came and bought it for billions, what the fuck?!
