"50 Cent" Has an Online Hit: Successful Mobile Video Uploads via Kyte

HOLLYWOOD -- 50 Cent, who is touring with his G-Unit crew to promote his new album,  has been getting good notices, including this story from Thursday's (7/3) The New York Times.

Fueling his popularity is a successful fan site which prominently displays fan-uploaded videos onto a Kyte player.  Watching a video on my desktop, iTunes open on my browser right to the song/album/ringtone for sale.

In Los Angeles last month, I caught up with 50 Cent's producer Sha Money.  He told me that thisis50cent.com has 300.000 monthly unique visitors and is adding 10,000 new users per month.  He told me many are uploading camera-phone videos to the Kyte player.

You can find 50's Kyte channel here.
