The 44-year-old star – who is one of the best-selling rappers of all time explained:

This project is the same material I used for my music. "I didn't receive an award for Best New Artist when I had the largest debut for a hip-hop album. I sold more records for a first album today. I look at it the same. I'm going to make the numbers.

Ultimately, 50 who plays the part of 'Kanan Stark' on the show believes the industry will eventually regret overlooking 'Power' and the hype it will create.
