Rapper 50 Cent, known for his sharp wit and social media presence, recently found himself mentioned during Sean “Diddy” Combs’ federal sex trafficking trial.
Former Bad Boy Entertainment executive Capricorn Clark testified that Combs once expressed a preference for firearms over verbal disputes, referencing his long-standing feud with 50 Cent. Clark recounted an incident where Combs allegedly said, “I don’t like all the back and forth… I like guns,” following an MTV event involving 50 Cent.
In response, 50 Cent took to Instagram, sharing AI-generated images and sarcastic captions to mock the situation. One post featured him looking alarmed with the caption, “Cut, CUT. Wait a minute PUFFY’s got a gun, I can’t believe this I don’t feel safe LOL.” Another depicted him feigning fear, stating, “Oh my goodness itty bitty Diddy wants me Dead, I have to lay low. I think I’m gonna hide out at the playoff game tonight. LOL.”
This exchange adds another chapter to the decades-long rivalry between the two artists, which began in the early 2000s and has included diss tracks and public jabs. 50 Cent has also been vocal about the allegations against Combs, producing a Netflix documentary on the subject and pledging proceeds to sexual assault victims.
As the trial continues, 50 Cent’s reactions underscore his ongoing feud with Combs and his penchant for turning serious situations into viral moments.
