50 Cent’s work on Power has been detailed by the program’s actors, but Courtney Kemp Agboh, the series creator and show runner, recently opened up about how 50 Cent influenced the show’s foundation.
“He really helped me build Ghost,” Agboh says in an interview with the New York Times. “Because I am not actually a superrich, urban human. I’m kind of middle of the road.”
Power isn’t the only thing Agboh and 50 Cent bonded over.
“50 Cent and I really started to bond over our love for music,” Agboh says. “The first conversations we had were about Curtis Mayfield.”
50’s involvement with Power was recently praised by Omari Hardwick, the show’s star.
“It was pretty amazing,” Hardwick said of 50’s dedication to the show. “He’s tried… and proven in other parts of his life, as a mogul, as a Rap artist. It was really interesting for me to see him take on the executive producer hat of a show like this. He had done producing before…but to see him be active and take my phone call on the dime…If I’d call and go, ‘We really need you on the set today.’ We have an incredible cast, so it wasn’t just me, it would be me speaking for the cast and going, ‘Folks need your energy today.’ And he’d be down in like 30 minutes. He was really active…He’s great to work with.”
Recently, Starz announced that Power earned a second season.

cool show. i suggest checking it out since there isnt much else happening in tv during the summer months.
Im Loving POWER
CN’T LIE
Hell’s Kitchen is better, plus has less bad black actors.
seems like they’re setting 50’s character up to have a big role next season once he gets out of prison
THIS SITE FUCKING SUCKS
HHDX has gone down the toilet.
yet you’re still here whining about it. go start your own website and see if anyone cares.
YUP
hahHa some little kid got butthurt because I said his favorite site was going down the toilets.
more like hes just questioning why you’re still here if it’s so bad. look you even came back to read the comments LOL. thats like me going to mcdonalds for lunch and complaining the whole time about how gross mcdonalds is.
nice show. my only problem with the show is they spend far too much time with ghost and angela talking about their feelings. It gets boring when they revert to that 3 and 4 times in an episode. Pretty easy to figure out 50 was behind it once he told his son to start telling him what was going on. In true Starz fashion, I wouldnt be surprised if 50 gets bumped off in finale. Starz, except for Spartacus, usually comes up short. They need 50 for next season. Can’t just be ghost and angela talking about their feelings again.
black sails is a good starz show too.
that angela bitch needs to gtfo. how you a kingpin but you fallin for a fed bitch. and tommy telling redhair all his secrets and lying for that thieving bitch taking from his family… 50 the only real nigga on that show that aint simpin these hoes.
You can tell that the writer is spending alot of time on that so it can be super dramatic when she has to bring down his empire. The shit with Tommy and the red head is what I’m not getting.its like how they get this far if they simp with bitches to this degree?
GREAT SHOW
EVEN OFFICER RICKY WATCHES IT, TO GET IDEAS FOR SONGS AND VIDEOS
Lmaoooo soooo true
Ricky had a tubby character on Starz Magic City but his acting was so bad they cancelled the whole fucking show and called 50 up for some real shit.
Sheeeeeesh are their any Black and Latin people on this Blog?
we got one black guy who complains about whites a lot, but hes like 40 and kind of a nerd rap groupie
shout outs to @Bruthadee / graftedgenes / H-Rap
Ricky watches it to remind himself what not to do when your past your hip hop prime.
ricky has fallen off while 50 stayin fresh in business, movies, music, tv, headphones, books, etc.
