50 Cent’s ‘For Life’ series canceled.

According to reports, ABC made a last-minute decision to renew the series last year. The renewal came following publicized protests of the murder of Black man George Floyd at the hands of law enforcement in Minnesota.

There was no last-minute reprieve for the show this time, with ABC on Friday canceling it after two seasons. Sony Pictures TV, which co-produces For Life with ABC Signature, is expected to shop the series to other buyers including Hulu, where For Life, starring Nicholas Pinnock, has done well. For Life, from creator/executive producer Hank Steinberg and executive producer Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, has proven timely with its exploration of racial inequality in the justice system. The show delivered on that by becoming one of the first scripted series to go into production during the pandemic in early fall despite its Season 2 order being originally for midseason. As a result, For Life was back on the air by November. (Deadline)

50 Cent’s really living in Texas these days.

50 Cent Makes The Move To Texas

A few days ago, 50 Cent announced his relocation to Houston, Texas with a pic of himself standing in front of the Astrodome wearing a Houston Astros cap. It’s been speculated the business-minded mogul made the move in large part due to Texas’ lack of state income tax and lower cost of living compared to New York, but so far 50 hasn’t opened up about the real reason(s).

“I Love NY, but i live in Houston now i’ll explain later. ?swipe left ?Green Light Gang ?BOOM?”

Houston Celebrities Welcome 50 Cent

The home of the NBA’s Rockets and NFL’s Texans embraced the arrival of another superstar in 50 Cent. Houston mayor Sylvester Turner and local rap veteran Paul Wall were among those who sent love to H-Town’s newest resident, who had barely touched down before he was booked to host a party on Mother’s Day weekend.

“Welcome to #Houston@50cent. It is great to hear that you have chosen our city as your new home. Welcome to the most diverse city in the nation.”
