In Shreveport, 50 Cent’s G-Unit Studios is expanding its film and television empire. Recent reports from Fox33 News mention 50 Cent acquiring over 10 properties in downtown Shreveport, making him a significant property owner in the area.
He has spent $2.4 million on these properties, including the notable purchase of 301 Spring Street for over $1 million. The growth of G-Unit Studios is expected to bring more investment, job opportunities, and increased tourism to Shreveport, much to the delight of the locals.
“What this means is Shreveport could be on the trajectory to be one of the fastest-growing cities, not only with population but with economic development,” Councilman Alan Jackson said in April. “People are moving back home. People are investing in Shreveport. And we see all it took was 50 Cent to light that spark.”
50 Cent disclosed intentions to collaborate with Tyler Perry to elevate G-Unit Studios. Perry’s Atlanta Studios is among the largest film production studios in the U.S. and reportedly the largest Black-owned studio globally. On Tuesday, 50 Cent shared clips from his meeting with Perry, who rolled out the red carpet.
