The buzz in NYC revolves around Mayor Eric Adams' bold move to dish out a whopping $53 million to migrants via pre-paid credit cards. This has stirred quite the pot, with even rapper 50 Cent throwing in his two cents, declaring Trump as the "answer" to this chaotic situation.
From Radar Online:
50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis James Jackson III, shared a screengrab of the New York Post's coverage of the program and questioned the logic behind it.
"WTF mayor Adams call my phone, I don't understand how this works — somebody explain," the rapper wrote in his post. "Can't explain this I'm stuck maybe TRUMP is the answer."
According to city records, the program is designed to provide asylum seekers at the Roosevelt Hotel with hard cash to help them pay for food. It will initially cater to 500 migrant families who are staying in short-term hotel accommodations.
The program aims to offer financial support to these families, with a family of four potentially receiving nearly $1,000 a month.
Reps for City Hall have not yet responded to requests for comment regarding 50 Cent's criticisms.
Back in 2020, 50 Cent threw his weight behind Trump, making it clear he didn't want to be "20 Cent" under Biden.
It's worth noting that 50 Cent is doubling down on his support for the second time around, and it's particularly noteworthy considering the mess that NYC and other major cities across the U.S. find themselves in under the current Biden administration.
