50 Cent Signs Massive $150 Million Deal With Starz

50 Cent and Starz agree on a four-year overall deal that could be worth $150 million.

50 Cent continues to take the title of his first album to heart. The rapper-turned-producer just inked a massive four-year overall deal with Starz, according to Variety.

With this deal, Fif will seek to continue the development of his G-Unit Film & Television, Inc. imprint by creating scripted and unscripted content for the network. Per network sources, if 50's future projects succeed, then the deal could potentially be worth a maximum of $150 Million.

And, of course, he wouldn't be 50 Cent if he didn't take the news to Instagram.

50 Cent executive produces Power, which has shattered nearly all of the network's viewership records on its way to becoming Starz's most popular show ever. After the character he played took a pretty big L last summer (spoiler), 50 Cent is getting ready to direct an episode in the upcoming sixth season.
