50 Cent Says He’s the Next Tyler Perry

Safe to say he's happy with the direction his career is taking.

50 Cent is in a good, good mood. And he has a good reason to be.

Fif’s latest venture in the entertainment industry has him wearing the hats of both an actor and an executive director — and his hard work is paying off. As reported, the third season debut of Power, garnered 2.26 million viewers, breaking a record for the STARZ network.

To no one’s surprise, the rapper-turned-entertainer took to his Instagram to pat himself on the back, going as far as to compare himself to Tyler Perry.

“Lol and you know I’m just getting started,” he wrote. “You are gonna look up and say when the f**k did 50 turn into Tyler Perry. LMAO.”

Looks like Fif has some very big shoes to fill and feels more than up to the challenge.
