New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani admitted on Wednesday that he would love to end his one-sided feud with rapper 50 Cent.While appearing on the Complex podcast, Mamdani was put on the spot by host Jillian Superstar, where she asked the socialist mayor, "If you were to have a dinner party — that I know I'd be invited to after this interview — who would be your dream dinner party guest, dead or alive?"His first choice, he answered, would be Mayor Fiorello La Guardia, who he touted as the greatest mayor of New York City in its entire history.ZOHRAN MAMDANI PRAISED FOR 'FANTASTIC' QUESTION-DODGING ON PRESIDENTIAL ELIGIBILITYMayor Zohran Mamdani spoke in an interview about who his 3 ideal dinner guests would be.(Michael Nagle/Bloomberg via Getty Images)"I would throw in 50 Cent so we could have a conversation around tax policy," he added."A very much needed conversation," the interviewer agreed.During an interview on "The Breakfast Club" last year, the mayor noted that while he was a fan of 50 Cent, the musician wasn't a fan of his tax policy."I know if 50 Cent is listening, he's not going to be happy about this.
He tends to not like this tax policy, but I want to be very clear this is about $20,000 a year.It's a rounding error.
And all of these things together, they make every New Yorker's life better, including those who are actually getting taxed now," Mamdani said in the June 2025 podcast.The rapper responded shortly after by asking, "Where did he come from? Whose friend is this? I’m not feeling this plan.No.
I will give him $258,750 and a first-class one-way ticket away from NY.I’m telling Trump what he said too!"BILLIONAIRE FIRES BACK AT MAMDANI, SAYS BUSINESS LEADERS MUST 'FIGHT FOR THEIR CITY'NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani said that there is a merely "one-sided beef" between him and rapper 50 Cent.
