50 Cent might not star in Tulsa King, but his music has added some extra fuel to the hype for the new season.
On Monday (September 28), Paramount+ shared a trailer for the fourth season of Sylvester Stallone's popular mob drama, and the it's soundtracked by a very familiar record that hip-hop fans in particular will recognize instantly.
After the trailer's opening dialogue sets the table for what fans can expect from the upcoming season, the G-Unit mogul's "If I Can't" can be heard cutting through the backdrop.
The unmistakable Dr. Dre and Mike Elizondo production hits hard, first with the punchy keys and then the rhythmic drum kicks, followed by a reordered version of Fif's menacing lyrics: "And I'm around, quit playing, you can't shine / You gon' be that next chump to end up in the trunk."
Soon after, the classic hook kicks in: "If I can't do it, homie / It can't be done," which suggests Stallone's character, Dwight Manfredi, is the only man for the job as far as payback is concerned.
The new series of Tulsa King premieres on Paramount+ October 16. Check out the full trailer above.
Despite not starring in Tulsa King, 50 Cent has starred alongside Stallone in numerous movies, including Expend4bles and the Escape Plan franchise.
