A Major Investment in Shreveport
Rapper-turned-media mogul 50 Cent is doubling down on Shreveport, Louisiana—this time with plans for a permanent “G-Dome,” a Las Vegas-style arena that promises to bring long-term economic growth to the city’s downtown.(KSLA / HotNewHipHop)
More Than Just a Venue
The dome—visioned as a state-of-the-art multipurpose event space with LED light displays and eye-catching graphics—will anchor G-Unit Studios’ expansion efforts. G-Unit’s growth adviser teased the project during a August 18 committee meeting, encouraging locals to “watch what’s coming” as the city gears up for this new chapter.(KSLA)
Economic Opportunity & Artistic Hub
The G-Dome follows G-Unit Studios’ 2023 acquisition of the Millennium Studios lease in Shreveport. Plans include using the space for film, TV, live events, and community activity—eventually drawing tourists and creatives alike. The project is supported by state and local leaders aiming to establish Shreveport as a sustainable entertainment destination.(KEEL)
A Legacy-Building Move
In 2024, 50 Cent’s pop-up inflatable G-Dome surprised audiences at the Humor & Harmony Weekend festival, reinforcing his long-term vision for the city. Since then, the relationship has only grown—culminating in a promising strategic partnership that could reshape downtown Shreveport.
