Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson didn’t become an entertainment mogul by being diplomatic. Whether when he was emerging as a hip-hop legend during the aughts, or developing his hit Starz crime drama Power into a franchise that now spans four series, he always gets things done with a mix of talent, shrewdness, aggression, and forthrightness. And he expects everyone who’s a part of his empire to share the same drive.

For example, when he remembers the network’s skepticism about casting Omari Hardwick in Power’s lead role of nightclub owner and drug dealer James “Ghost” St. Patrick, 50 Cent recalls having to spell out to Hardwick what was at stake for the actor. “I ended up having a conversation with Omari for two hours,” he recounts, relaxing in an empty event space at the private NoHo social club Zero Bond. “The first thing he said to me was, ‘Alright, then they can give it to somebody else. I’m like, ‘Nigga, you got a plan B?!’”
