added: Tue, Mar 4th '14

Besides hip-hop albums, rapper/actor/producer/entrepreneur Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson has so far developed feature films, semi-autobiographical crime books, a clothing company, and even a vitamin water drink. This year, he adds a cable TV show to that list as he is set to reveal a new high-power gangster drama for the STARZ network, in which he's executive producing.

Created by "The Good Wife" producer Courtney Kemp Agboh, "Power" stars Omari Hardwick (The A-Team) as a New York mogul who is trying (but failing) to keep his secret life as a cutthroat drug kingpin from interfering with his public life as a "legit" nightclub owner.

Co-starring Joseph Sikora, Naturi Naughton and Lela Loren, the eight-episode crime drama premieres on STARZ this summer, but you can get a taste of the glamorous criminal life by checking out the show's debut trailer, above.

synopsis:
From Executive Producer Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson and show creator Courtney Kemp Agboh (The Good Wife) comes "Power", a visionary crime drama set in two different worlds -- the glamorous New York club scene and the brutal drug trade. James "Ghost" St. Patrick has it all: a beautiful wife, a gorgeous Manhattan penthouse, and the hottest, up-and-coming new nightclub in New York. His club, Truth, caters to the elite: the famous and infamous boldface names that run the city that never sleeps. As its success grows, so do Ghost's plans to build an empire. However, Truth hides an ugly reality. It’s a front for Ghost’s criminal underworld; a lucrative drug network, serving only the wealthy and powerful. As Ghost is seduced by the prospect of a legitimate life, everything precious to him becomes unknowingly threatened. Once you’re in, can you ever get out?
