50 CENT TALKS ABOUT POWER & OMARI HARDWICK ISSUE BREAKFAST CLUB INTERVIEW!!! AUDIO ONLY!!!
In a recent interview, 50 Cent discussed his relationship with Omari Hardwick and shared some behind-the-scenes details about their financial dynamics. He mentioned how he once lent Omari $50,000–$60,000 to help him get through tough times, allowing him to repay the money when he felt stable. 50 Cent explained that on shows like *Power*, actors’ pay increases only after the third season, which Omari reached, eliminating the need for further financial help.
50 also talked about a separate incident with the artist Rotimi. He initially invested in Rotimi’s music project, agreeing that Rotimi could repay him through royalties, which helped keep Rotimi’s career moving forward without upfront debt. When 50 demanded his repayment, it created a stir, drawing significant attention to Rotimi’s work, which helped boost the song’s chart position. Rotimi even recognized 50 Cent’s marketing skill, saying he didn’t expect the situation to become such a clever promotional tool.
50 Cent went on to express frustration with Omari, feeling that Omari overestimates his worth, especially now that he’s no longer part of *Power*. According to 50, if Omari’s presence were truly impactful, he would still have significant new projects creating buzz. He explained how he feels unappreciated, as Omari implied 50 and Courtney Kemp, the show’s creator, didn’t ensure he was well-compensated. 50 Cent clarified that he introduced people to Courtney and made sure she and others on the show were well-paid.
