That is insane! This is why I don't have $25 million deals, cause I totally would be rapping illmatic and probably scare him away.

There definitely is a lot of money to be made by these celebrities who can help endorse products.
If they have a good following, just putting their name on a product can get it off the ground with very little marketing costs.

Glad to see celebrities (Richard Branson, Mel B., Snoop, Nas, etc.) backing Bitcoins!  The more the crazy and public attention, the betteR!

This is pretty impressive
If a16z are letting these guys invest, rappers or not, they must be pretty solid

Nas might be the sharpest rapper, intellectually, on the scene today.  I always knew he was sharp just by listening to his music and noting the complexity of his lyricism and style.  He is one-of-a-kind.  The fact that there's an indicator he's financially savvy doesn't surprise me.  He'll never be broke.
