Chinua Achebe's ''Things Fall Apart''' And 50 Cent's ''All Things Fall Apart''

In 2011, Chinua Achebe forced 50 Cent to rename his forthcoming new movie "Things Fall Apart". He was contacted by Achebe's legal team that he couldn't use the title. Even when he offered Achebe $1 million dollars, Achebe felt insulted and rejected the money. 50 Cent later re-named his movie "All Things Fall Apart"

    1. Yes, it is not every man that is moved by money. Let us all change our attitude concerning money. For many, money has become their master. They can do anything to get money including committing murder. Good name (integrity) outweighs money and anything money can buy

  7. That money could have probably changed his generational wealth...but sometimes everything is not all about money.
    His children are doing well anyway.
