During a recent Emmys FYC conversation in Atlanta with Bmf showrunner Heather Zuhlke, stars Demetrius “Lil Meech” Flenory Jr., Da’Vinchi, Michole Briana White and Russell Hornsby — who respectively play Big Meech, Terry, and Flenory matriarch and patriarch Lucille and Charles — and executive producer Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, who had been less active with the network in recent years after several fallouts, was full of pride and commentary about the Starz drama’s current success and future plans.
There’s no denying that Jackson putting his hip hop fame and street cred behind Power, the series essentially about a drug kingpin named Ghost (Omari Hardwick) who wanted to get out the game and become a respectable businessman, changed the premium network’s fortune. Power reportedly increased Starz’s subscribers base by as much as 40 percent.
From that came three successful spinoffs — Power Book II: Ghost; Power Book III: Raising Kanan and Power Book IV: Force.

The University of Colorado is soaking up the sports spotlight. NFL Hall of Famer Deion Sanders leads the Buffaloes as its new coach, and with him comes the first time in the college’s history that home games have sold out, reports Colorado Public Radio.
It’s not just tickets that the former football and baseball player is selling out. After Colorado State Rams coach Jay Novell threw shade at Sanders for wearing hats and sunglasses at press conferences, Sanders played up his Blenders Prime shades and secured a deal with the eyewear brand.
