50 Cent Dishes On His Eminem Record Release Battle In Exclusive Preview Of ‘How Music Got Free’

Blavity’s Shadow and Act has an exclusive preview from the upcoming Paramount+ docuseries, How Music Got Free. The Alexandria Stapelton-directed documentary premieres June 11 on the streamer

In the below clip, 50 Cent discusses the cultural impact of his record release battle with Eminem.

Here’s the oficial description: From New York City, to Los Angeles, to the small factory town of Shelby, North Carolina, the two-part series features the quirky genius of the heretofore-unknown “pirates,” the drama of the FBI investigations and convictions, and the frontline accounts of music’s biggest artists and executives. An unbelievable story of cunning, illegality, celebrity, and innovation, these are the events that changed the music industry forever.

The series is narrated by Method Man and features interviews with Eminem, 50 Cent, Timbaland, Jimmy Iovine, Rocsi Diaz, Rhymefest, Steve Stoute and more.

“As a filmmaker, I wanted to challenge the narrow lens of who we regard as tech innovators,” said Stapleton in a prior statement. “HOW MUSIC GOT FREE  is a story that proves brilliant minds can be found in unlikely places, like the rural, forgotten factory town of Shelby, North Carolina.”

The series is exec produced by Stapelton alongside Stoute and Stephen Witt, along with Marshall “Eminem” Mathers and Paul Rosenberg for Shady Films; LeBron James, Maverick Carter, Jamal Henderson and Philip Byron for SpringHill; Bridgette Theriault, Dan Sacks and James Chapman for Warner Bros. Unscripted Television/Telepictures; Steve Berman, John Janick and Anthony Seyler for Interscope films; and Bruce Gillmer and Michael Maniaci for MTV Entertainment Studios.
