50 Cent and Big Meech may have more content in the works.
The Queens rapper and filmmaker recently posted a picture with the newly-released street legend along with the caption, “GreenLight Gang. Ultimate Hustler edition. Camera speed, rolling and action. BMF Big Meech.”
The two have a great working relationship, with Meech giving 50 Cent his blessing to produce The BMF Documentary: Blowing Money Fast and the series BMF for STARZ. The series, which stars Big Meech’s son Demetrius Flenory Jr., is based on the lives of the Flenory brothers and their rise from Detroit drug dealers to running a national crime syndicate that at one point doubled as an influential record label. The show was renewed for a fourth season earlier this year as the third season was set to premiere.
In 2021, while talking with The Gate, 50 talked about how he talked film executives into turning the BMF story into a series instead of a film. “I got this project from Barry [Brooker] and Stan [Wertlieb] at Grindstone/Lionsgate; they were pitching it as a feature film,” he began. “And I was like, ‘It shouldn’t be a feature film, it should be a series.’ I was saying that because there was so much information, so much went on in the experience that I was like, ‘We’re never gonna get this out in two hours.’
The Black Mafia Family leader was sentenced to 30 years in prison back in 2008 along with his brother Terry “Southwest T” Flenory and was released from a Florida prison on Oct. 15. He’s serving the remainder of his sentence in a halfway house and is projected to be released on Jan. 27, 2026. Southwest T came home in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic due to health issues.
