‘I Knew This’: 50 Cent Has Fans Shook After He Points to This Person as Ghost’s Killer, Fans Lose It

50 Cent seemed to rile up the viewers of “Power” after giving a theory about who shot Omari Hardwick‘s character Ghost, who took a bullet to the chest in the midseason finale.

In that much-talked-about scene, viewers saw the characters, Paz, Tariq, Tommy, Tasha, Tate and Dre going to Ghost’s nightclub Truth. So the talk about who pulled the trigger has been ongoing.

50 named Trey Songz as the shooter, although he wasn’t in the final episode or even a “Power” cast member, although the R&B crooner sang a remix version of the show’s theme song “Big Rich Town,” originally sung by Joe. Many said they couldn’t stand it, and 50 eventually put the original version back on.

And it’s because of that fuss people made over the song that 50 brought the R&B singer up.

“I think @treysongz shot Ghost because of how you fools acted about the remix,” wrote the G-Unit boss on Friday. “I told y’all to chill, now yall done got ya man f–ked over. LOL.”

50’s followers weighed in afterward, and like they did back in August, they blasted Songz for the remix.

“He need to be arrested for that theme song 😭,” wrote a fan.

“Good he should get the chair for that remix,” a another person stated.

“My wife love ghost! Shiiii–d I was about to walk up to his club too wit the pistol! I almost shot ghost!,” wrote a third person.

“😂😂😂 I knew this shit was going to b funny before I even read the caption😂😂,” wrote someone else.

On Monday, Nov. 4, Hardwick posted a message about “Power” coming to a close and his character possibly being wiped out.

“Thank you Starz, producers, writers, directors, crew, teamsters & my beloved cast for trusting each other enough to aid majorly in this line being blurred,” he wrote. “That is when programming shifts the culture. My belief is we accomplished that.”

“Thank you fans for entrusting me with the job of quarterbacking this team of bandits who scored in stealing your hearts week in/week out for 6 yrs,” added Hardwick.

Independent journalism doesn't fund itself.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
