50 Cent Faces Mediation In $1B Lawsuit From Former Drug Kingpin Over ‘Power’

Screen Shot 2023 03 20 at 9.01.34 AM

About two years ago, a former drug lord by the name of Cory “Ghost” Holland Sr, filed a lawsuit against 50 Cent and producer Courtney, claiming that Starz Power series was made about his life story and now it’s being reported that 50 is now facing mediation in that lawsuit.

50’s attorneys allege that the one year statute of limitation is over, which weakens Holland’s lawsuit, but Holland, who’s self represented, says he mailed a copy of his CD to Kemp’s father in 2007, which details his life as a drug dealer who turned into a drug lord. Court docs also claim that Fif came to Holland’s house twice in 2021 to try to confront him about the lawsuit.

Mediation in the lawsuit is set to begin on May 9.

TheSource.com will update this story as more details develop.

50 Cent Accused Of Confronting Former Drug Dealer About Lawsuit Over ‘Power’ Character

50 Cent Expendables

According to a report from AllHipHop, music and television mogul 50 Cent is accused of “pulling up” on Corey “Ghost” Holland Sr., who is suing the Power executive producer for allegedly basing the NYC-based street saga on his life.

Holland says in the lawsuit that Fif came to his place of residence twice in 2021 and that 50 was retaliating against him for filing the lawsuit.

Holland’s suit reads, “50 Cent shows up about a half mile from plaintiff home, and plaintiff sees the same truck that pulled into his driveway at the 50 Cent event. So plaintiff realizes it was either defendant Jackson or his Entourage who decided to ‘Pull Up.’ It continues, “When you looking for a confrontation your honor, this is what people say, nowadays. Up to this point, plaintiff had ignored a lot of ‘subliminal attacks’ on him online, but now 50 Cent is bringing the drama right to plaintiff front yard, so plaintiff responded to 50 Cent they way any normal person would respond to a possible threat, plaintiff prepared himself for whatever was go happen.”

Holland alleges that the seven acts in a CD he released, Blasphemy are identical to the seven seasons of the Starz television series as well as the first two seasons of Power Book II: Ghost.

50 Cent’s legal team called the lawsuit frivolous and stated that because the last showing of Power aired in February 2020 and the lawsuit was filed in April 2021, he missed the one-year statute of limitations under New York law.
