Despite a few past indifferences, blossoming media mogul 50 Cent is continuing to make major moves at Starz.
TMZ reports that 50 has just signed a new deal with the premium cable network that will extend his relationship with them to September 2019. Although the exact amount is unknown, the deal is said to be worth an impressive eight figures.
Featured in the deal are three new projects from 50 Cent: Black Family Mafia, Tomorrow, Today, and an unknown third. The first two projects are already under development.
In May, 50 Cent hyped up the potential of Black Family Mafia, writing that it’s capable of topping his hit show Power.
“The writers deals are done, there [sic] already working and communicating with BMF inside and out. To have a strong understanding of what transpired. This you don’t want to miss. This I believe can top Power. But when you see this season of Power you will not believe how good it is,” 50 Cent wrote in the comments section to a video he uploaded to Instagram.
50 addressed his latest deal with Starz on Instagram, with a special message to those who have doubted him.
“till think I’m NOTHING? Ok watch what I do now. I’m just getting started, you know I’m a nightmare for a HATER,” he wrote.
He’s also appearing alongside Gerard Butler in the upcoming film Den Of Thieves.
That BMF joint is going to be bananas. Any writer/director who could mess up that story is horrible. That’s a can’t miss.
Nice to see 50 making some serious moves with tv considering he nosedived musically.
yeah he seems to be rebounding ok. hopefully he’s smarter about his money this time around (unless he’s been smart all around and is just stashing the $100M+ he made the first time around in off shore accounts).
100% was storing it in Bitcoin all along
You’re dumb dude, 50 has 4 albums with 35 million sold. To put that in perspective Jay Z has 11 albums and has sold 48 million. Please impress us with something other than your lips flapping
Well 50 actually has 5 albums, with domestic sales totalling about 15 million. Im assuming you’re including worldwide numbers. And Jay has 13 solo albums with around 25 million domestic sales. But 50’s first album sold 8+ million and his last barely sold 100k- sounds like a nosedive to me.. since you wanna compare him to Jay, all (except maybe 444) his LPs are platinum.. not sure what 444 sold, but prolly at least 500k ACTUAL sales and will probably go platinum eventually including streams if it hasnt already.
50 cant lose if he tried. Gotta Respeck his Business Acumen. I wonder if BMF is gonna be a series or a movie. A BMF series would be NUTS!
he gonna be around for another 5 years maybe 10 if he’s lucky…
been doing it since 98 he good
Motherfucker hes been doing this shit for over 20 years he is a MONSTER
if he dont act in them they should be alright
