50 Cent has linked up with Big Meech following the Black Mafia Family co-founder’s recent release from prison.
50’s hit STARZ series BMF is based on the rise of Meech’s criminal organization in the ’80s and ’90s, with the former kingpin being played by his son, Demetrius “Lil Meech” Flenory Jr.
Needless to say, the pair likely have lots to talk about, and Fif alluded to their link-up centering around TV and film when he shared a photo alongside Meech to Instagram on Sunday (November 17).
“GreenLight Gang [clapper board emoji] Ultimate Hustler edition [camera emoji] Camera speed, rolling and action. BMF BIG MEECH,” 50 wrote.
Big Meech was arrested in 2005 and ultimately convicted three years later. He was sentenced to 30 years in prison for maintaining a continuing criminal enterprise and money laundering. While he is out of federal prison, he is serving out the remainder of his sentence in community confinement, reportedly at a halfway house.
According to Bureau of Prisons records, Meech’s scheduled release date from the halfway house is January 27, 2026.
The Black Mafia Family (BMF) was a drug trafficking organization founded in Detroit, though its main hubs became Atlanta and Los Angeles. They also had an associated entertainment company.
In February of this year, Meech had 32 months trimmed off his sentence thanks to Amendment 821 of the United States Criminal Code, emphasizing his rehabilitation behind bars.
According to court documents obtained by HipHopDX, Meech’s attorney filed the motion with the Eastern District of Michigan in early January, demanding a “retroactive application” of sentencing guidelines.
In summary, lawyers argued that since the ex-BMF leader had been nothing short of a model citizen while serving time — getting his GED, doing well in his other prison classes and staying out of trouble on the inside since 2021 — he had earned credit for his sentence under the U.S.S.G. (United States Sentencing Guidelines) Amendment 782, and, therefore, should be released.
As for 50 Cent and the BMF show, the series was renewed for a fourth season earlier this year – days before the third season even premiered. A premiere date has yet to be announced, but it’s expected to be some time in spring 2025.
