50 Cent’s television program Power has been renewed for another season. There are 10 episodes of the drama slated for season 3. 50 Cent serves as the executive producer for the show and also co-stars alongside Courtney Kemp Agboh. “Power is a project I have been passionate about since day one,” 50 Cent was quoted as saying by HipHopdx. “I am glad the audience loves the show as much as we do, and we are just getting started.” 

The show is set in 50’s home state of New York and focuses on the life of a night club owner who doubles as a drug kingpin. The season two premiere set a Starz record as the most-watched episode of an original series. According to BillBoard, it grossed 3.62 million viewers — a network record for the most watched (pre-DVR) episode of an original series to date.
