50 Cent tells NYC Mayor Eric Adams he forgives him on migrants debit cards: ‘Now I want to talk to Gov. Hochul’
Rapper 50 Cent says he talked to Big Apple Mayor Eric Adams about the city’s migrant debit cards and is no longer mad at him — instead turning his sights on Gov. Kathy Hochul.
“I talk [sic] to… Eric Adams he broke down why this pilot program was put in place. He appeared to be on point, and on top of things,” Fiddy wrote in an Instagram post Tuesday.
“Now I want to talk to [Gov. Kathy Hochul] 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,” the rapper said, referring to some of the dough that the governor has offered the city to help cover the crisis.
The comments from the “In Da Club rapper” come after he lambasted the mayor over the weekend for his pilot program giving migrant families prepaid credit cards to cover food and baby supplies.
50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis James Jackson III, fired off on social media Saturday, “WTF mayor Adams call my phone, I don’t understand how this works somebody explain.
“Can’t explain this I’m stuck maybe TRUMP is the answer,” he added.
On Monday, the party-loving mayor said he wanted to set the record straight, explaining the program is expected to save the city $600,000 per month.
“So I told 50 Cent to hit me up,” Adams said, adding that the rapper could write a follow-up post complimenting how well he’s done and joked, “Maybe he’ll write a song about me.”
While Fiddy followed through on the flattering social post, there is no word if he might work on a tune for the Big Apple’s “Nightclub Mayor.”
