Rapper Hurricane Chris clarified his feelings about 50 Cent in a recent interview after criticizing the mogul over his Humor and Harmony Festival last week. The rapper had called Cent a "culture vulture" and criticized him for not involving any local artists from Shreveport, Louisana, where the music festival was held.

Speaking to KSLA News 12 in an interview published on August 22, Hurricane Chris clarified his previous stance on 50 Cent, explaining that there was no malice between them. The rapper said,

“It’s no hate. It’s all love, but I must voice my opinion because I been here, and I been in Shreveport. "

Chris added that he only wanted to see respect for his community and local artists getting their chance at it, especially since he hails from Shreveport too. He continued,

"[Shreveport does] have artists. A lot of artists, more artists than that I can’t even name that would rock stages like that. It’s not about me. I definitely had no malice. It was just me wanting to see my community be respected. I had already seen him come into the community and disrespect the culture and names, and it came out because I was in one of those moods.”

The rapper also mentioned that his words about 50 Cent led to a "big misunderstanding" and he would also be willing to collaborate with Cent in the future.

After Chris criticized 50 Cent over his Humor and Harmony festival, the G-Unit mogul also hit back at the rapper via his Instagram story. He shared memes to call Chris a "one hit wonder."

On August 18, Hurricane Chris took to his Instagram in a since-deleted post to criticize 50 Cent for not including local artists from Shreveport, Louisiana in his Humor and Harmony Festival. Sharing a 90-second-long video, the rapper said,

"None of the people around you know what the city needs, not even the fake non-profits, but that's another story. We love you, but you have been led wrong by people with no community outreach except downtown. Your pint man can't name the neighborhoods in my city. I know you're smart, bro. Everybody's using you."

He also named multiple local artists whom 50 Cent could have included in the festival, such as Lil' Boosie, Big Will, Big Poppa, and himself. Further, Chris accused the G-Unit mogul of paying money to the police when people were starving in the town. He continued,

"He just showed you that by paying the police a half a million dollars, when we got young n*ggas out here starving. We got young n*ggas out here killing each other. That f*cking money could have gone to anything to help the youth, we don’t need more money invested into the police."

Hurricane Chris stated that 50 Cent could have invested the money in the community instead of paying the police. The rapper said that the community needed people who are "willing to make their feet dirty" to make a difference. He also indicated that 50 held the festival in Louisiana, as it would be cheaper.

Meanwhile, rapper Fredo Bang, who hit back at Hurricane Chris, noted that he was one artist who performed in the Humor and Harmony festival and is a Louisiana native. He said,

"Hurricane, if he didn't put no Louisiana artists, Louisiana legends, who the f*ck I am then?"

Fredo Bang, alongside New Orleans rapper Master P and Big Fella Zil, also performed at 50 Cent's festival.

"Oh no you not gonna play that one song you got. Bay Bay just went on stage wit Master P."

50 Cent indicated Chris does not have any song worth playing except his one hit, supposedly referring to his 2007 hit Ay Bay Bay. In a follow-up story, Cent continued,

"Boy ya sh*t is wack. Ya sh*t gets no play in my ride."

The G-Unit mogul has not responded to Chris's latest statements clarifying his stance.
