50 Cent Promises Netflix Documentary After Suntory CEO Quit Over Drug Raid

50 Cent wasted no time turning corporate scandal into content after the head of Suntory Holdings, a liquor empire he’s suing, stepped down amid a drug investigation in Japan.

The Hip-Hop and entertainment mogul reacted Tuesday (September 2) to the resignation of Takeshi Niinami, CEO of Suntory, following a police raid on his Tokyo home tied to suspected cannabis-related products, Bloomberg reports.

The news tickled 50 Cent, who’s been locked in a legal battle with the beverage giant over claims they defrauded his Sire Spirits company out of millions.

“They Lack Honor, this is the same company Beamsuntory that stole 6.8 million dollars from me,” 50 Cent wrote on Instagram, sharing a screenshot of the headline. “Cost me millions in legal fees and still hasn’t resolved the issue. Now they are getting caught with drugs. I’m gonna make a documentary about this ! Netflix.”

Niinami resigned Tuesday (September 2) after Japanese authorities searched his home in connection with a probe into supplements suspected of containing THC, the psychoactive compound in cannabis. According to Bloomberg, Niinami denied any wrongdoing and stated that he believed the products were legal CBD supplements intended to aid with sleep.

Suntory accepted his resignation and said it would await the outcome of the investigation before commenting further on the legality of the products.

Meanwhile, 50 Cent’s lawsuit against Beam Suntory, now operating as Suntory Global Spirits, accuses the company of orchestrating a scheme to siphon off roughly $6 million from his liquor brand through inflated pricing and hidden kickbacks.

50 Cent has also threatened to bring the matter to the U.S. Congressional Black Caucus, suggesting the case highlights broader issues of discrimination and exploitation of Black-owned businesses.

Beam Suntory has denied all accusations, stating it was unaware of any fraudulent activity.
