50 Cent is taking offense to comments made by Power star Omari Hardwick about the end of the actor’s run on the successful series, which Fif’ executive produced.
Hardwick made the comments during a panel discussion on Wednesday (July 10) as part of the Uninterrupted Film Festival.
On Saturday (July 13), 50 posted video of Hardwick’s comments, adding his own disappointed commentary.
“I’m with y’all in this sense,” Hardwick said of being disappointed by the ending of Power, when his character was murdered by his own son. “I’m with you in the sense that the way the story was sold and told to me is not befitting of the way it ended, guys. So y’all have every right to be like, ‘It didn’t end right.’
“We often forget that the fans are being sold and told a story that has a genesis, and that it has to end the way that it was sold,” he continued.
50 posted the clip with a caption that didn’t mince words.
“This [ninja] is a strange bird,” the rapper began. “The fuck is he talking about. I never done nothing but look out for him. If he needed something I gave it to him. I understand now, that shit didn’t matter at all.”

50 may be mad at the star of Power, but he’s recently found new inspiration in television courtesy of Tyler Perry.
50 shared pictures of his visit to Perry’s studio complex on Instagram late last month, where he was greeted by a sign that read: “Tyler Perry Studios welcomes 50 Cent & G-Unit.”
The media moguls also posed for a photo together.
In his caption, 50 reflected on the trip and credited Perry with sharing advice that left him feeling “inspired.”
“I’m leaving no room for error Tyler showed me some shit today that inspired me,” he wrote. “I need all my money if you owe me, you better give me mine now!”
50 Cent previously defended Tyler Perry after he was negatively compared to the filmmaker after setting up his own studio complex in Shreveport, Louisana.
In April, Fif took issue with a social media post that said: “Dude lowkey becoming the male Tyler Perry it’s crazy to see.”
He hit back with: “LOL. Yall better stop playing, Tyler will fuck yall up he ain’t no sucker. Don’t get it fucked up now !”
