When you think of The Boys , chart-topping music probably isn’t the first thing that comes to mind. Gory fights, satirical digs at superhero culture, sure — but Emmy-winning original songs? That’s a new one. And yet, the series has officially snagged an Emmy for Outstanding Original Music and Lyrics, proving its sound is just as sharp as its bite. The winning track highlights the creative depth of the show’s production team. Unlike many series where music is merely atmospheric, The Boys treats songs as storytelling devices.

From the gritty streets that inspired Get Rich or Die Tryin’ to the intricate storytelling of Power , 50 Cent has always blended raw charisma with a sharp edge. His music career has honed an instinct for timing, presence, and crowd control — all traits that make him perfect for portraying a character like Balrog. Every punch, every move, could resonate like a perfectly dropped verse, hitting the audience with impact. Balrog is more than muscle — he’s a boxer whose ambition and greed mirror the very hunger 50 Cent’s music often explores: survival, power, and the consequences of chasing success at all costs.
