50 Cent recently discussed his strained friendship with former “Power” star Omari Hardwick, revealing that the two are no longer on good terms.

If you’ve been following, you know Omari has voiced frustrations about his “Power” character, James “Ghost” St. Patrick, being killed off after six seasons.

He’s also been outspoken about his pay on the show, even claiming that his role provided the proof of concept that led to four “Power” spinoffs.

Unfortunately, these unresolved issues seem to have affected their friendship.

While chatting with “The Breakfast Club”, 50 Cent confirmed the fallout, saying, “I think he overvalues himself.”

50 also felt slighted by Omari’s comments about his pay, which he interpreted as a personal attack.

“He leaves it like it’s me not giving you the money,” 50 explained.

“If he’s saying it and he’s going, ‘Courtney and 50 know.’ You’re saying that – they don’t know who TF Courtney is – I introduced people to her. They don’t know who she is. So, you’re leaving it, ‘50 didn’t make sure I got paid.’”

Catch the full clip below.


Omari Hardwick is the only cast member from the “Power” universe that has openly complained about his pay.

Do you think it is because he was underpaid or do you agree with 50 Cent that he “overvalues” himself?
