50 Cent and Snoop Dogg to team up for the “Murder Was The Case” Series.
After the success of his previous shows on STARZ, including the most recent “Black Mafia Family”, 50 Cent is coming up with another Hip-Hop oriented series for the TV Network. The “POWER” mogul will now team up with Snoop Dogg for the show “A Moment in Time: Murder was the Case”, which is based on “Algorithm” rapper 1993 murder case.
In 1993, Snoop Dogg was charged with first-degree murder for the shooting of Philip Woldermariam, who was a member of a rival gang and was shot by Snoop Dogg’s bodyguard McKinley Lee. The murder trial happened around the release of Snoop Dogg’s classic debut album “Doggy Style”. A track of the same name appeared on the album in 1993, and Snoop Dogg also released a short film in 1995, which was directed by Dr. Dre, Ricky Harris and more.
“I am excited to finally tell the story of Murder was the Case,” said Snoop. “This was a pivotal moment in my life and career and I’ve deliberately waited until I found the right partner to bring this to the screen. You are now about to witness the strength of street knowledge.”
“Murder was the Case is an incredible story. Snoop had the biggest album in the country and was fighting for his freedom in the courtroom,” said 50 Cent. “The only place to go on this incredible ride is with G-Unit Film & Television. I’m excited to be working with Snoop to bring it to television.”
“I am excited to finally tell the story of ‘Murder was the Case,’” added Snoop. “This was a pivotal moment in my life and career and I’ve deliberately waited until I found the right partner to bring this to the screen. #GLG. You are now about to witness the strength of street knowledge.”
