Lucious Lyon es el máximo responsable de un sello musical llamado Empire Entertainment. Lyon es todo un ejemplo de lucha y superación, un hombre de orígenes muy humildes que consiguió abandonar las calles y el tráfico de drogas para crear su propia marca que le ha convertido en uno de los hombres más influyentes de la industria musical. Un hombre hecho a sí mismo que tendrá que tomar una durísima decisión cuando le diagnostican una enfermedad que le incapacitará en unos 3 años: ¿Quién será su sucesor? Lucious tendrá que elegir a uno de sus tres hijos. Su favorito es el pequeño: Hakeem, un músico con mucho talento pero sin sentido del deber y mucho más preocupado por la fama que por el trabajo. El mediano es Jamal, un prodigio musical aunque nunca quiere ser el protagonista. Jamal es gay, algo que avergüenza a su padre, que no le ve preparado para dirigir Empire. El hijo mayor es Andre, que ya trabaja junto a su padre en la empresa y que sabe todo lo necesario para llevar el negocio aunque no es músico como sus hermanos. A hip-hop mogul must choose between his three sons who are battling for control over his multi-million dollar company, while his ex-wife schemes to get what's hers.
