50 Cent is no stranger to the court and to receiving grave accusations from different people. Since that puts him in a darker light, the rapper seemed to be clear that he could take matters into his own hands.
Last week, the rapper was named in a whopping $1 billion lawsuit served to the creators of "Power Book II: Ghost," an American drama television series created by Courtney A. Kemp. 50 Cent was a co-executive producer.
50 Cent 'Power' $300M Lawsuit
In an exclusive report from AllHipHop, 50 Cent was named in a new lawsuit again, apart from the $1 billion lawsuit served last week.
According to the outlet, a man named Corey "Ghost" Holland, the same person behind the billion-dollar lawsuit, was seeking a separate $300 million charge to Lionsgate Entertainment, the parent company of Starz, for enabling 50 Cent's alleged harassment and intimidation following the publication of the initial lawsuit.
Per Holland, he claimed that the rap icon showed up in his own neighborhood with men in SUVs and vans, searching and looking for a person named "Ghost."
Upon finding out his location, he alleged that 50 Cent had stared him down and stood intimidatingly on his very own driveway. Holland said that he was forced to arm himself following the traumatizing encounter. When he asked why they were in the area, the men who came with 50 Cent prevented him from confronting the Grammy-winning artist.

According to the new complaint, Holland claimed that Lionsgate was aware of 50 Cent's illegal and harmful action, but still proceeded to hire him for the said project. Holland is seeking damages for intentional infliction of emotional distress and negligence in hiring and retention, to name a few.
As of this writing, 50 Cent has yet to respond to the allegations thrown At him.

In 2021, Holland alleged that the Kemp and the 50-Cent co-produced show "Power Book II: Ghost" airing on Starz Network under Lionsgate was "based on his likeness," Uproxx reported.
This was because Kemp got a hold of his cd "Blasphemy," which Holland claims that he originally gave to Kemp's father in 2007.
Since 50 Cent's camp has never responded to the issue, the court ordered all parties to settle through mediation. The said mediation will be taking place on May 9, 2023.
