50 Cent Says “BMF” Could’ve Kept Going With A Different Lead, Claims Lil Meech Would Come To Work High & ‘Kept Getting In Trouble’

In another world, “BMF” might have lasted longer than four seasons.

#50Cent reshared a clip from Da’Vinchi’s viral interview with Cam Newton and confirmed what the actor had to say about his “Black Mafia Family” co-star #LilMeech. During his appearance on the “Funky Friday” podcast, Da’Vinchi claimed the popular Starz series would “1000%” still be going if someone else had landed the role of Demetrius “Big Meech” Flenory instead of the part going to Big Meech’s own son. According to #DaVinchi, it was “really hard” for executive producer 50 to “contain Demetrius Flenory Jr.”

Backing up Da’Vinchi’s claims, 50 said, “No lies detected Meme was throwing up at weapons test because he was high. Spent all his money pretending to be his dad off camera, and kept getting in trouble.” He added, “I’m bailing him out of jail to get him on set to shoot, and snitching on his friends yeah what next season lil.”

“#BMF” first premiered in September 2021, and many fans were shocked when it was announced last year that the series would end with season four. The show aired its final episode on August 15, 2025. Now that 50 is suggesting things could’ve played out differently with another actor in the lead, #TJBCrew, who do you think would’ve been better suited to play Big Meech?
