50 Cent’s fans won’t have the rapper for hypocrisy over Donald Trump’s win.
The rapper faced criticism after congratulating Trump on his election win, despite reportedly turning down a multimillion-dollar offer to perform at one of the politician’s recent campaign rallies.
Following Trump’s win as the 47th president of the United States early Wednesday, 50 Cent shared two throwback photos on Instagram of the two together, sparking conversation online.
“I don’t care how the fight goes, I’m leaving with the winner s–t. I still don’t know what’s going on, congratulations!” he wrote in the caption of the post, and further tagged his alcohol brands.
Fans didn’t hesitate expressing their disapproval over the rapper’s greeting to Trump.
“*deletes every 50cent song in my playlist*,” one critic commented under the post.
“Please name one thing you expect him to do that benefits black people. And the explain how you will feel when he grants immunity for policemen who kill unarmed black men. I’ll wait,” another wrote.
“Bro hate his own kind,” a third chimed in the criticism train.
“Please 50. We don’t have money like you to tolerate/survive whatever this man about to do,” another fan took a direct jab.
“Why did you have to post this? You said you were staying out of politics. I am so disappointed,” a fifth questioned.
50 Cent’s greeting and his fans’ reaction to his post came after the 49-year-old recently shared on The Breakfast Club turning down an offer of $3 million to perform at Trump’s rally at Madison Square Garden in New York City late last month.
