EXCLUSIVE: 50 Cent Praised For Diddy Doc, But Sues Over Giant “Piece Of S**t” Movie He Says Hurt His Rep

50 Cent is riding the wave of his Diddy documentary success, while a movie that flopped used his image and now he wants $5 million

Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson has problems. With those problems come more money, possibly. In a case of name, image and likeness, 50 is considering legal action against Ryan Kavanaugh, a filmmaker who allegedly created a horrific horror film.

After the movie tanked, Jackson chose to sue the producer for $5 million. In the time he released Sean Combs: The Reckoning, the Queens rapper noticed that his property rights had allegedly been violated with the unveiling of this poorly received film.

By being embroiled in yet more litigation, Fifty finds himself claiming that he had been violated via NIL issues. He noticed that his pivotal role as a filmmaker played in his decision to become a plaintiff in the civil case.

Skillhouse (2022) the apparent failure critically and in terms of box office receipts supposedly featured 50 Cent but he never signed the contract. Kavanaugh allegedly kept 50 cent in the picture along with his liquor Le Chemin du Roi.

Kavanaugh promoted the film with the line “A 50 Cent Production” and other promotional materials without Fifty’s consent. The Hollywood executive took not only offense, but also is engaged in this suit to clear his name and what he looks like.

As Curtis Jackson prepares to reap the rewards from his latest effort, he still has to remember that he had been slapped in the face by Kavanaugh’s “brazen” lack of concern for him.

If it is to be taken into consideration, Jackson ought to see millions of dollars to keep his sanity intact. The problems that Jackson faces seem serious but he knows how to handle all of them.

In the time he will have received the residuals for the Diddy documentary, he would probably not have to fret. It’s a matter of honor and justice. 50’s good name had been attached to a supposed flop of a horror film. He has to restore his reputation and ensure he has every bit of respect in the industry. Not just for the $5 million but for the fact he wants to keep himself together.

Throughout history, blacks have been denied, persecuted, and shut out of productions. Their names had been attached to malignant films and TV shows just so producers could cash in on the knowledge of the actor or other producer’s star power.

What Fifty needs to do is continue to charge forward with his idea to reclaim his rep. That’s what needs to happen in the world of ogres and mental vampires. Also, for him to continue with the lawsuit, it’s imperative that he brings to light all of the ways for him to be successful.

His abilities on the microphone will forever be solidified in the hip hop halls. What should be exemplified in courses and law classes is the tenacity and clarity of 50 Cent. He makes sure he has a strong grasp of what it takes to be involved in litigation.

As someone who has shown how powerful they can be with their music might, the legal proceedings should take precedence over all of the nonsense he has experienced.

Contrary to popular belief, 50 will be remembered for more than just being shot nine times and launching into superstardom.

It is his patience, calculations, and ease of branding himself that should be the hallmark of his name.

For all of his business dealings, he should be regarded as one of hip hop’s best entrepreneurs. The lawsuits reflect a mind for presenting what can be possible. A street wise individual with a corporate America mindset, 50 Cent keeps on honing in on cashing out while protecting not only his fortune, but his self-regard.
