50 Cent drops new song for Power: Origins, fires back at T.I.

50 Cent and Leon Thomas have teamed up for “No One Told Us What We’re Here For,” the official theme song for the upcoming Power: Origins prequel series on Starz. The record helps set the tone for the next chapter in the Power universe, which explores the early lives of iconic characters James “Ghost” St. Patrick and Tommy Egan.

Driven by dark, cinematic production, the track pairs 50 Cent’s gritty, street-focused storytelling with the soulful vocals of Leon Thomas. The collaboration reflects the show’s core themes of ambition, loyalty, and survival as the characters begin their rise long before the events of the original series.

Serving as both a musical introduction and thematic backdrop, “No One Told Us What We’re Here For” helps expand the franchise’s signature sound while tying the new prequel to the legacy that longtime fans of the Power universe already recognize.

In the song, 50 Cent seemingly takes shots at T.I. and his sons with the following lines: “”I’m back on my dope boy grammar/Your daddy made your mama eat every box in Atlanta/Freak sh*t/Peep sh*t/Keep sh*t, on the low/But everybody know”

The recent feud between T.I. and 50 Cent reignited after T.I. publicly challenged 50 to a Verzuz-style rap battle during an interview, claiming the New York rapper was “ducking smoke.” 50 Cent fired back on social media, mocking T.I. and posting disrespectful content about T.I.’s wife, Tiny Harris, which escalated the situation. In response, T.I. released multiple diss tracks and the conflict quickly spread across social media, even pulling T.I.’s sons into the back-and-forth.
