50 Cent has opened up about the pay disparity he experienced while creating shows for the star’s Network specifically his record-breaking power series in a new interview with vulture the G-Unit Mogul talked about how he wasn’t taken very seriously when he first staged staged his move from music to TV
Noting that the likes of HBO Showtime Paramount and Hulu all passed on his power series we went to all these organizations in the early stages they probably had something else they felt was similar or it wasn’t what they was looking for 50 Cent explained I’m sure now they wish
They didn’t pass on it eventually Stars which at the time was a relatively new network took a chance on Fifth’s crime drama which proved to be the right decision as it wound up being its biggest show and broke a multitude of Records however with the huge highs came a few
Lows and 50 said that whenever it was time to renegotiate his deal with the network there would be an issue which he believes had something to do with the show’s diversity and then every two years it felt like we was auditioning for a major carrier he said it’s time to renegotiate and it
Would be an issue so for me at that point really what it is is racism because the project is a success but the platforms are not necessarily acknowledging things that have diversity connected to them I’m outperforming a lot of the shows that they had in the award show ceremony and
They’re not putting the work in the awards show even to watch it lose but the issues didn’t stop there after explaining that he took a huge pay cut when he stepped away from music to build his brand in the world of TV 50 Cent was asked to elaborate further which led him
To reveal the figure he was reportedly being paid by episode of Power and it might surprise a lot of people there’s no one that could come and tell me to take seventeen thousand dollars to act and executive produce and make music he said I gave them the theme song for
Power I gave them the things that connected hopefully in a different way for it you see what I’m saying all those things for seventeen thousand dollars per episode I get paid more to go to the nightclub and wave even though in his eyes he was being lowballed 50 just really wanted to make
