Fifty is expanding his “Power” TV saga with four spin-offs and confirms that he will be producing theme songs for all of them.
He talked about that to Haute magazine that put him on the cover of its September issue:
“Making sure the theme songs are musically good is important to me,” he boasts. “Power’s [“Big Rich Town”] was one of the best theme songs I’ve ever heard. Of course, I didn’t get nominated for it, but it sold a million copies. Show me another theme song that people actually want to buy. My career has been that way. [There’s a discrepancy between my] achievements and the accolades connected to them. I got to achieve what I wanted to achieve, but I didn’t get the trophies to go with it, and they’re not giving me trophies because then kids would actually want to be 50 Cent.” (His Best New Artist loss to Evanescence at the 2003 Grammys is still a sore spot: “Where the f**k is Evanescence now?”)
This interview was mostly focused on Fifty’s business operations and TV career, both of which are nothing short of resounding success. You can read the full article on the Haute website.
