50 Cent Mocks NYC Mayor Eric Adams Over Federal Indictment: ‘You Want a Docuseries’
As 50 Cent once rapped, “When It Rains It Pours.” On the heels of continuously trolling Diddy over his arrest, the G-Unit honcho reacted to Eric Adams’ indictment on Thursday (Sept. 26).
With a documentary surrounding Diddy’s allegations already on the way, 50 teased his fans by asking if he should do a separate doc about the NYC mayor’s legal troubles and turbulent tenure.
50 reposted a September 2023 clip of Mayor Adams referring to himself as the “Bad Boy of politics” before presenting Diddy with the Key to New York City, which he rescinded in June following a myriad of lawsuits filed against the Bad Boy CEO.
“This s–t is getting crazy out here! Do you want a docu series on Eric Adams ? I want to know what the fvck is going on here,” he captioned the clip.
Uncle Murda shared a laugh in the comments while 50’s fans seemed to be into the idea. “50 might be the funniest non comedian to ever live I applaud it,” one person wrote.”These documentaries are gonna be fyah,” another added.
According to CNN, Eric Adams was hit with five federal charges of “bribery, wire fraud, conspiracy and soliciting campaign contributions” from foreign parties on Wednesday (Sept. 25). The alleged illegal actions date back to 2014.
“For nearly a decade, Adams sought and accepted improper valuable benefits, such as luxury international travel, including from wealthy foreign businesspeople and at least one Turkish government official seeking to gain influence over him,” the indictment reportedly reads.
On Wednesday (Sept. 25), Variety reported that 50 Cent’s Diddy docuseries will be calling Netflix home. The untitled doc will center around Combs’ lawsuits, sexual assault and abuse allegations, but also include his recent federal charges for racketeering and sex trafficking.
50 is onboard as an executive producer through his G-Unit Film & Television division while Alexandria Stapleton is directing. “This is a story with significant human impact. It is a complex narrative spanning decades, not just the headlines or clips seen so far,” 50 and Stapleton relayed in a joint statement to Variety. “We remain steadfast in our commitment to give a voice to the voiceless and to present authentic and nuanced perspectives.”
A spokesperson for 50 Cent previously confirmed to Billboard that proceeds received from the project will go toward helping victims of sexual assault and rape.
