50 Cent has once again made threats against STARZ related to removing his content from the network. His latest frustrations have caused the Hip-Hop mogul to decide not to move forward with his upcoming series The Massacre on STARZ, which houses the series in his acclaimed Power universe.
“I decided i don’t want to move forward with The Massacre in STARZ production,” he shared on social media with an older photo of himself smiling while on the phone. “It’s a waste of time and money & it doesn’t fit the new Premium women’s mandate over there. It was a piece with snoops (Murder was the case) Ill find a network better fit to tell my story Lionsgate.”
The message was shared to the Grammy Award-winning rapper’s verified Twitter and Instagram accounts.
Last month, 50 Cent revealed on Twitter STARZ had pulled Snoop Dogg’s Murder Was The Case, writing “I give them the alley-oop, they drop the da*m ball. Anyway, i hope snoop tell his story.” The show was set to be the second installment in the A Moment In Time anthology series, following The Massacre.
“I am excited to finally tell the story of ‘Murder was the Case.’ This was a pivotal moment in my life and career and I’ve deliberately waited until I found the right partner to bring this to the screen. #GLG ?You are now about to witness the strength of street knowledge…” expressed the Doggystyle rapper when the series was announced in December 2021.
Moment in Time: The Massacre was announced in 2020 and was set to chronicle the beef between 50 and the Game, which resulted in Jimmy Henchman being in prison with a life sentence.
