Bosses at telecommunications company AT&T have dismissed accusations from 50 Cent that they are "racist" after they failed to reach an agreement with executives at US network Starz, which airs the rapper's popular hip-hop drama Power.
Chiefs at Starz and AT&T U-verse, a cable operator in the US, have been in contract negotiations which could ultimately pull Starz out of half a million homes using AT&T U-verse.
Fans of Power who subscribe to AT&T U-verse would potentially miss out of new episodes of the series, which is in the middle of his second season, and 50 Cent, who co-stars and co-executive produces it, took to Instagram over the weekend writing, "Man Im sorry I have to say this, but AT&T is racist they have had issues in the past and here we go again. 500,000 homes will not be able to view the next episode of Power."
He later added on Instagram "If your a fan of POWER and you have AT&T as a cable carrier, you will no longer see it. Switch to Anything but AT&T... It's 2015 and these people are still racist. They are dropping all channels that are considered urban friendly. This shit is sad."
