SHREVEPORT, La. (KSLA) – Shreveport Mayor Tom Arceneaux says the city has been accommodating to rapper and businessman Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson regarding his G-Unit Film Studios project and says it’s time for Jackson to deliver.
“Well, we have been most accommodating to Mr. Jackson from the very beginning, and now it’s time for him to perform,” Arceneaux said.
Jackson’s claims
Jackson said on the podcast “The Crew” that the revitalization has happened without real backing from the city’s administration. He claimed leaders told him there’s no budget for his requests and suggested a meeting with him would just be good publicity for an election.
“I don’t know where he gets that from, but… that is utter baloney,” Arceneaux said…
