After winning the lawsuit, the Florida rapper announced that he was launching a rival energy drink called JettSet1. He expects the new product to be in stores in early 2024. The lightly carbonated energy drink will have all-natural ingredients. Flo Rida partnered with George Tabi, M.D., and Erik Hicks to start JettSet1 Enterprises. The trio said the new venture will have “vast interests and partnerships across various industries spanning from biotech, health & wellness, and beverage to real estate development, film, and television, just to name a few.”
He did state that he would give back to the community when the courts decided in his favor. “I’m all about giving, you know, giving is required, so I look forward to taking care of the neighborhood,” he said.
Purchasing the Cloverleaf Plaza is a great start!
