50 Cent has U-turned on his criticism of New York City mayor Eric Adams and is now directing his ire at the state’s governor Kathy Hochul.
The G-Unit mogul has been critical of the state’s immigration policies and called out Adams last week over a proposed plan to give migrants pre-paid debit cards.
50 revealed on Monday (February 5) that Adams had reached out with him to explain the policy before citing his unhappiness at New York wanting to spend $2.4 billion to deal with its migrant crisis.
The “In Da Club” rapper wrote on Instagram: “I talk to @nycmayor Eric Adams he broke down why this pilot program was put in place. He appeared to be on point, and on top of things.
“Now I want to talk to @govkathyhochul about the laws preventing him from doing things to make the situation better in New York. and where the proposed 2.4 billion she’s planning on spending on migrants is coming from…NOT MY TAXES!”
50’s post was accompanied by a clip of Mayor Adams publicly reaching out to the rapper, saying: “I told 50 Cent to hit me up. I would love to explain it to him so that he can go out and do another tweet saying, ‘You know what? Eric is just a smart manager and now we understand why he was elected by the people of this city to be the mayor.'”
In January, Governor Hochul unveiled a plan that aimed to provide shelter services, legal assistance and more for asylum-seekers, and reiterated calls for the federal government to provide more assistance to the state.
She said: “We’re doing this not just because it’s the right thing to do for the migrants and for the city of New York. We also know that companies won’t do business in New York if there are thousands of people sleeping on the streets, or the quality of life is dramatically impacted because the city is forced to cut essential services.”
50 Cent previously proposed that Donald Trump was “the answer” to New York’s problems after endorsing the Republican in 2020 over his tax policies.
He said at the time: “Yeah, i don’t want to be 20cent. 62% is a very, very, bad idea. i don’t like it!”
50 later rescinded his endorsement at the urging of ex-girlfriend Chelsea Handler.
Handler made a plea to the rapper during an appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon where she said: “I had to remind him that he was a Black person, so he can’t vote for Donald Trump, and that he shouldn’t be influencing an entire swath of people who may listen to him because he’s worried about his own personal pocketbook.”
50 reposted a clip of the interview and said: “Fuck Donald Trump, I never liked him.”
50 is a clown and basically a white man. Decades of ruining Latin America and now America is shocked to realize there’s refugees who can’t live in countries that were decimated by America’s spread of drugs? Roosters coming home.
Decimated by America’s spread of drugs? What drugs is USA manufacturing legally or illegally that is decimating South America? Are you stupid? Do you know where the illicit drug market starts? Fent comes from China and is moved to SA to ship into USA. Coccaine Columbia. Heroin and meth Mexico. America doesn’t produce illicit drugs compared to South America by any metric. And funnily enough, the migrants who come make America WORSE. Why? Because these are life’s losers. The winners stay in their native nations to improve them.
Agreed. Anyone who is sick of seeing foreigners needs prioritized over suffering Americans is totally white. Nobody else has enough critical thinking skills I guess to understand why it’s bad that millions of Americans in need have been ignored for decades, and now illegal aliens are prioritized.
CIA gave them money and guns. Certified facts if you care to know. Cartels in Mexico directly funded by your government under former President Bush 41 as CIA director. By the way, the same regime that allowed them to set up shop with crack rock in the hood unfettered. Anything else?
America spends billions on homeless Americans. America spends billions on social services. At the same time, dummies like you are crying about these immigrants living on the streets begging. So which one do you want it to be?
While it’s true corrupt government agents do corrupt things, it still doesn’t mean at all that America I’d flooding south America with drugs lol. It’s still the other way around, as I said. It’s very simple. Why aren’t the drugs made on a mass scale in USA? Because our government will destroy you. Why can’t the cartel openly operate in USA like they do in Mexico? Because US military will take you down. It’s all supply and demand, but to claim USA is flooding south America with drugs and complete and utter BS.
Except people who worked at the CIA at the time said that’s exactly what they did. Because you’re dumb and don’t know history, don’t get mad at the rest of us.
