| '50 Cent Doubles Down On LA As 'Finished' After Flash Mob Nordstrom Robbery Rapper 50 Cent has weighed in on the recent flash mob robbery of a Nordstrom store in Los Angeles, taking to social media to state that he believes the city is now officially “finished.” The artist has now doubled down on the controversial comment, saying that he stands by his words. It was a wild scene in Los Angeles on Tuesday when a group of around 40 teenagers descended on a Nordstrom store, stealing hundreds of dollars in merchandise and leading to a police chase. After the incident, 50 Cent tweeted that Los Angeles was now "finished" and that it was time for him to leave. In a follow-up statement, 50 Cent doubled down on the comment, saying that he stands by his words and that he believes the recent events are symptomatic of a larger problem in the city. The artist also noted the difficulty of finding a “safe city” to live in, particularly in light of the 50 Cent height crime rates in other cities across the US. The artist's remarks have been met with both agreement and disagreement, with some social media users defending the rapper's comments while others condemned the idea that the actions of a few people reflect the character of an entire city. Nonetheless, 50 Cent's comments have drawn attention to the realities of life in America's largest cities. |
