\n\tThe BMF<\/a> Documentary: Blowing Money Fast is coming back with a second season on January 16, Starz<\/a> said Monday, with new episodes to stream weekly on Fridays via the Starz app, and the network\u2019s streaming and on-demand platforms. The Season 2 trailer can be found below.<\/p>\n

\n\tAcross six episodes, the second season will focus on an exclusive interview with Black Mafia Family co-founder Terry Lee \u201cSouthwest Tee\u201d Flenory, highlighting his role as the mastermind, his deep bond with his brother Demetrius \u201cBig Meech\u201d Flenory, and the ultimate breakdown of their relationship as power, paranoia and law enforcement pressure drove them apart.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe docuseries overall explores the rise and fall of the Black Mafia Family, the notorious drug empire built by the brothers. Fueled by ambition, loyalty, and a shared vision, they created a sprawling criminal enterprise, only to be undone by rivalries, betrayal and the weight of their choices. From the streets of Detroit to the heights of infamy, this is their untold story and the lasting legacy they left behind.<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\t(L-R) Demetrius Flenory Jr. as his real-life father Big Meech and Da\u2019Vinchi as Terry Flenory in Season 4 of \u2018BMF\u2019<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tStarz<\/p>\n

\n\tThe documentary was ordered in 2021 as a companion project to complement the Starz scripted crime drama BMF, which recently concluded its four-season run on Starz. The show was canceled in October<\/a>, leaving fans with a cliffhanger when Big Meech (Demetrius Flenory Jr.) was arrested by Detective Von Bryant (Steve Harris).<\/p>\n

\n\tHowever, considering the series followed the adventures of the Flenory brothers, with Da\u2019Vinchi starring as Terry Flenory, viewers can read up on the events that followed. They can also now catch the docuseries\u2019 second season, where they can hear details straight from the real-life Southwest Tee.<\/p>\n

\n\tThere has been plenty of speculation regarding why BMF was canceled, with a spotlight on franchise executive producer Curtis \u201c50 Cent\u201d Jackson\u2019s beef with Big Meech. Sources at the time of the cancellation told Deadline that Jackson and Big Meech\u2019s frayed relationship was not the reason BMF ended. Jackson addressed the rumors during a recent chat with Deadline while promoting his ratings juggernaut Netflix docuseries Sean Combs: The Reckoning<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cBMF\u00a0was already slightly declining [in ratings] before the last season started, and they made some creative choices that were, from my perspective, not good choices,\u201d Jackson told me in late November. \u201cI know people feel like I turned it off, but the networks would have continued to move forward with the show if it was doing the numbers it had been doing. So it\u2019s [one thing] me saying that the show\u2019s over, and then [another] that it\u2019s actually over. Those were the circumstances; it wasn\u2019t me.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tWith that clarification, whether The BMF Documentary: Blowing Money Fast<\/a> will continue beyond Season 2 is unknown. Regarding the future of the franchise, Jackson has reiterated his intention to continue via spinoffs, both before and after BMF was canceled<\/a>. He did not elaborate on what storylines or timelines he\u2019s interested in expanding.<\/p>\n

\n\tJackson is also executive producer of the Power franchise on Starz, which has successfully found new life beyond the mothership series with spinoffs Ghost, Raising Kanan, Force, and the new prequel project Origins. Ghost concluded its run after four seasons in 2024, prequel Raising Kanan will end following its upcoming fifth season, and Force will wrap up Tommy\u2019s (Joseph Sikora) Chicago adventures after three seasons January 16. Origins is currently in production on its freshman season in New York and New Jersey<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\tAll that to say that BMF\u2018s ending after four seasons doesn\u2019t signify that the Black Family Mafia\u2019s stories can\u2019t continue<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\tIn addition to Jackson,\u00a0The BMF Documentary: Blowing Money Fast\u00a0is executive produced by Shan Nicholson (Jerusalem: City of Faith and Fury, Rubble Kings), who serves as the series\u2019 showrunner, as well as Razan Ghalayini, Richard Perello and Stacey Offman. Khidija Rivera and Jessica Vale co-executive produce, and the supervising producer is Kenyatta Steans. The docuseries is produced for Starz by Jigsaw Productions and G-Unit Film\u00a0& Television.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
