The WGA’s negotiating committee announced the tentative agreement in an email sent out on Sunday. “We can say, with great pride, that this deal is exceptional – with meaningful gains and protections for writers in every sector of the membership. To be clear, no one is to return to work until specifically authorized to by the Guild. We are still on strike until then," they wrote. The decision comes after five consecutive days of negotiations following a 146-day strike. Plenty of hip-hop artists including Lil Wayne, Ice-T, and more have voiced their support for the writers over the last five months. Check out 50 Cent's post regarding the effort below.

They further clarified that details of the agreement won't be announced until everything is signed and made official. “Though we are eager to share the details of what has been achieved with you, we cannot do that until the last ‘i’ is dotted,” they added. “To do so would complicate our ability to finish the job. So, as you have been patient with us before, we ask you to be patient again – one last time.”
