Bow Wow Loves Mickey D’s

Rapper Bow Wow is extending himself outside of the rap world with a new sneaker store and fast food franchise.

He recently told the Columbia Dispatch, “I’m franchising my own McDonald’s, I’m thinking about getting a little share in the Atlanta Hawks, and I co-own a sneaker store — Prestigious [in Atlanta]. I just thought, ‘Why not make money on stuff that I love?’”

Just yesterday, Bow Wow paid a visit to his hometown, Reynoldsburg, Ohio, and gave a talk to youth at Barnett Recreation Center and participated in the Winter Basketball Invitational.

Bow Wow’s latest album “The Price of Fame” is stores now. Pictured: Bow Wow at a photo session in New York on Dec. 18, 2006.
