50 Cent fumes over Emmys snub for Power: ‘F**k your organisation’

50 Cent’s hit TV show was snubbed by the Emmys yet again – but he didn’t take it lying down, sharing an expletive-filled rebuttal.

Rapper 50 Cent didn’t mince words in a recent social media post when it came to the Emmys snubbing his series, Power.

The 45-year-old musician and actor not only plays a character on the drama but acts as executive producer as well.

The show focuses on a nightclub owner in New York City who lives a secret double life as a notorious drug kingpin. Since its debut in 2014, the show has not received any Emmy Award attention despite being one of the top hits for its US network.

50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis James Jackson III, took to Instagram to share what appears to be a sculpture of a naked rear end along with a caption chastising the Emmys for completely ignoring Power.

“OK here it is Emmy’s, My Black ass for your consideration to kiss,” he wrote along with a middle finger emoji. “F**k your organization I only care about NAACP awards.”

The actor’s shout out to the NAACP (National Association for the Advancement of Coloured People) awards comes after the show has won several of its awards since 2014.

This isn’t the first time that 50 Cent has called out the Emmys in no uncertain terms for not recognising his show.

In 2019, shortly after the nominees were announced, he took to social media again to share some ratings metrics for Power and to rebuke the Emmys as being run by elderly out-of-touch people.

“The EMMY’s can kiss my black ass in slow motion,” he wrote at the time. “F**k em I’m #1 They a bunch of Bengay my back hurt smelling ass old people anyway. LOL.”

It was announced last week that the Emmys opted to nominate Better Call Saul, The Crown, The Handmaid’s Tale, Killing Eve, The Mandalorian, Ozark, Stranger Things and Succession for outstanding drama series.
