Iconic rapper 50 Cent slammed New York City‘s plan to give $53 million to migrants, suggesting that former President Donald Trump could be “the answer.”

50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis James Jackson III, criticized a new program giving immigrants living in New York City pre-paid credit cards to make food purchases, with a family of four getting $1,000 every 28 days. Mayor Eric Adams‘s spokeswoman, Kayla Mamelak, has argued that this program will give migrants more freedom of choice in what to eat.
