He helped bring\u00a0<em>Power<\/em>\u00a0to the small screen and make it premium cable&#8217;s second-most successful franchise, trailing only HBO&#8217;s\u00a0<em>Game of Thrones<\/em>. However, it doesn&#8217;t seem like Fif is getting the respect that he deserves in some circles. With\u00a0the rumor\u00a0that STARZ has been trying to sabotage\u00a0<em>Power<\/em>, 50 Cent sounded like he was ready to move on and sink his teeth into a new challenge.<\/p>\n<p>Enter\u00a0<em>50 Central.<\/em>\u00a0Announced last April, it&#8217;s a late night TV project he&#8217;s embarking on with BET as the network, which will reportedly boast an edgier, different brand of comedy, along with the requisite guest interviews, performances and celebrity-fueled bits that the format is known for. The series will be debuting on September 28th, but in the meantime, Fif is doing his own-little one-man takeover of BET&#8217;s facilities, or at least that&#8217;s what his Instagram photos would lead you to believe.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BXy76lNF2eY\/<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BXy8TJ2F0pI\/<\/p>\n<p>50 supposedly has some really big ideas to bring to BET, as per the caption that graced one of the photos he shared from the recent trip to the network&#8217;s offices. &#8220;I&#8217;m getting rid of a few shows because I have some good ideas,&#8221; he stated. &#8220;Watch how this plays out.&#8221; Whether or not the rapper will actually be following through on this axing of programming &#8211; we&#8217;re not even sure if his deal with BET allows him to remove any shows from their time slots &#8211; it&#8217;s worth noting that the rapper would appear to have most of the leverage in whatever deal he&#8217;s inked with his\u00a0<em>50 Central<\/em>\u00a0partners. Fresh off the improbable success of\u00a0<em>Power<\/em>, who wouldn&#8217;t let Fif call his own shots when it comes to producing quality television? According to the rapper,\u00a0problems with the STARZ series\u00a0were not his fault, so a more hands-off approach could be a more productive relationship to have with the producer.<\/p>\n<span class=\"et_bloom_bottom_trigger\"><\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Over the course of his career,\u00a050 Cent\u00a0has gone from one of the hardest-sounding rappers of the early-to-mid-2000&#8217;s to an entertainment mogul who has his hand in several ongoing film and television projects.
