50 Cent has another accomplishment to add to his ever-growing list. His action channel nabbed the number one spot on Roku and LG Channels.
Lionsgate announced that 50 Cent Action, the FAST channel curated by the Hip-Hop mogul, is the #1 action channel on both The Roku Channel and LG Channels and could find the same success on Sling TV's Sling Freestream, which was just launched.
The channel features 50 Cent's favorite premium films and television series, especially those in which he starred, such as Den of Thieves, The Expendables, and, of course, his hit crime drama Power, which has gone on to spawn a whole drug-dealing television universe, known as the Power Universe.
The Queens rapper, born Curtis Jackson, will be on hand at LG Ad Solution's NewFronts presentation on Monday, May 5th, where he will participate in a live Q&A with the company's CEO, Michael Hudes. During the session, he will discuss the success of his FAST channel and its future.
"This is the future of entertainment," said Jackson. "It's about making real connections. I'm hands on with everything and collaborating closely with Lionsgate - which has been a great partner - to give fans free, direct access to the best action movies and shows out there, all in one place. Fans can step into my world every time they turn on the channel."
"50 Cent is a cultural icon with an unmatched connection to his audience," said Jim Packer, Lionsgate's President of Worldwide Television Distribution. "We've seen incredible momentum on the channel since launch, and our goal is to make 50 Cent Action one of the leading action destinations for fans and advertisers in the FAST Space."
50 Cent continues to rack up the wins.
