In a recent interview rapper 50 Cent revealed that he has 10 films and four television shows in the works. One of the television show is based off a book 50 wrote called “Playground” which is about bullying. According to 50 the bullying book was inspired by his son. 50 said “He was telling me a scenario one time about something that was going on in his school. And I found myself trying to explain it,” he said. “And things that we do as kids—We understand the difference between right and wrong as adults. So, while I’m explaining it to him I’m like ‘oh.’ This is when I acknowledged that I was actually the bully in the school at that point. So, I wrote it from a more responsible perspective. I want you to like the bully like you liked him in the past in those actual shows. Like Dennis The Menace and Bart Simpson, those other characters. And then have him acknowledge his mistakes.” The animated show which was reportedly picked up by Fox will take a look at bullying from the bully perspective. The rapper has been working away from music which gave him a chance to work on the film and television which is being produced by Cheetah Vision.
