After threatening once more to take Power from Starz for “disrespect,” 50 Cent has revealed on Instagram he has reached a new deal with the premium cabler to keep the show.
The first post read, “I just got off with Chris Albrecht, head of STARZ. New Deal More POWER coming your way, next season there will be less of a Wait. Thanks for supporting me, ????♂️I can’t believe how much money they just gave me. That shit just fucked with my nerves my hand is shaking. LOL TURN THAT SHIT BACK ON NOW????”
In the second post, the rapper, whose real name is Curtis Jackson, had ‘STARZ’ written across his forehead with the caption, “LOL yo this shit is unbelievable, I have 3 new shows coming on STARZ. BMF, Tomorrow Today, and I GOT AWAY. TICK, TICK ????BOOM.
Now, we know of the first two of the three shows. BMF is Black Mafia Family, which would, “will tell the story of how the Black Mafia Family became the BMF – the notorious drug cartel created in Detroit, Michigan in the late 1980s, by Demetrius “Big Meech” and Terry Flenory. Over the following decade, their organization grew into a hugely successful nationwide enterprise, as they began to use their financial gains in the drug game to branch out into other businesses, like creating a hip-hop music label called BMF Entertainment, promoting the careers of artists, some fairly well known, like Young Jeezy.”
The second is Tomorrow Today. Its description: “a superhero-themed series about a veteran from the south side of Chicago who, after being falsely imprisoned, becomes the personal experiment of a mad prison doctor trying to create the perfect man, and an unstoppable killing machine. Set free, but on the run, the veteran must reconcile with the world that has turned against him, and use his newfound abilities for good. ”
The third, I Got Away, which he put in caps maybe because it isn’t announced yet, we don’t have any information about as of now. However, we’re sure in true 50 Cent fashion, we’ll probably hear more about it in an interview soon.
Power just finished its fourth season on Starz, with its fifth season due in 2018.
