London, Dec 3 (PTI) Rapper 50 Cent has claimed that he is facing the heat of global financial meltdown, which has affected his investments badly. Cent's latest album 'Before I Self-Destruct' was slated to hit stores in the US on December 9, but he was forced to postpone the release until early next year because of fears that struggling music fans would be reluctant to spend on CDs.

The star admits the credit crunch has begun to affect his investments, losing him "millions of dollars" in decreasing stock values, Contactmusic reported.

"Pushing (the album) back was to position myself a little better. I've lost a couple of million dollars already. I sit with my investors and business managers and accountants, looking at the numbers and I'm like, 'Yo, the values of stocks in different areas are decreasing.' So I take loss like everyone," he claimed.
