50 Cent feat. Leon Thomas – No One Told Us What We’re Here For [Audio]

“No One Told Us What We’re Here For” feels less like a random loosie and more like the kind of record that’s built to open a universe.

50 Cent and Leon Thomas lock into a dark, cinematic lane that’s tailor-made for end credits and cold opens—gritty narration up top, then that soulful lift from Leon that makes the hook feel like a warning and a prayer at the same time. It officially arrives as the theme song for Power: Origins, setting the tone for the franchise’s next chapter.

And the “Origins” angle matters here, because the show is designed to rewind the clock—back to the early days of Ghost and Tommy Egan before everything became myth. The series has been positioned as a true prequel, with younger versions of the characters stepping into the center of the story as the Power world expands again.

The song also has that extra edge 50 loves to sneak in: even when he’s “scoring” a bigger narrative, he still raps like he’s in the middle of something personal. There are lines that listeners are already reading as shots in his ongoing back-and-forth with T.I.—because of course there are. That’s the flex: dropping a theme song that doubles as a statement record, then letting the internet do the rest.
