On Sunday, before the season four finale of "Power," 50 Cent who is also a producer on the show, sent out a message to fans, asking them to quit Starz.
According to him, the network doesn't understand that people are watching "Power" because of him.
" I don’t think the STARZ network realize your watching POWER because it’s my show,” he said on Instagram. “So take STARZ out of your cable package after you see POWER tonight. Then they will understand I bet.”

Earlier, 50 Cent had taken to Instagram to say that Starz was accusing him of leaking episodes of "Power."
After the ratings of the leaked episode went up by 10 percent, 50 Cent came out to accept that he leaked the said episodes.
"Powerratings up another 10 percent for episode 408. They glad I leaked the shit now," he posted.
50 has been in disagreement with Starz severally and has spoken about getting "Power" on another network.
In December of 2016, 50 Cent said he would no longer promote the show outside of his contractual obligations after what he described as a Golden Globes snub.
