The synopsis continued: “Speaking publicly for the first time ever with co-hosts Curtis ’50 Cent’ Jackson and investigative journalist Charlie Webster, Chicago-born identical twins Jay and Peter Flores let listeners into how they went from dealing $2 billion worth of drugs across the country as North America’s most successful cocaine traffickers to government informants who brought down the infamous drug lord, ‘El Chapo.'”
50 Cent will host produce the eight-part series along with journalist Charlie Webster.
The G-Unit mogul took to Instagram to share a preview clip of the podcast. “This is the first time the twins speak, they moved over 130 tons of cocaine and heroin. This story is wild, It’s just a different level. This is going to be the New NARCOS,” he wrote.
