With Diddy Facing Legal Trouble, 50 Cent Resurfaces Their Long-Running Feud Involving Jay-Z. Here's A Chronicle of Their Lengthy Dispute.

Amid Sean "Diddy" Combs' trial for serious charges such as racketeering and sex trafficking, 50 Cent has taken the chance to rekindle their extensive dispute spanning two decades.

This trial is distinct from a previous civil case Diddy's former partner, Cassie, initiated in November 2023. Her lawsuit accused him of rape, sexual assault, and human trafficking, claims that were reportedly settled for $20 million. Diddy has firmly refuted these claims.

The rivalry between these two prominent rappers broke out in public stages back in 2006 when 50 Cent dropped a diss track named "The Bomb," alleging Diddy's involvement in the murder of The Notorious B.I.G. in 1997.

From then on, they've traded barbs multiple times. In 2010, Diddy lashed out, tagging 50 Cent as a 'jealous complainer' following 50 Cent’s decision to manage Rick Ross in 2009—another rapper with whom 50 Cent had tensions.

50 Cent Teases Jay-Z and Diddy's Relationship

On a recent Wednesday, 50 Cent took to Instagram, sharing a montage of snapshots featuring Jay-Z and Diddy through different times.

"Best buddies forever, Jay, are you sticking around? We blew up Kid Cudi's ride as a power move! LOL," wrote 50 Cent, mimicking Diddy's voice.

According to Cassie's 2023 legal case against Diddy, he allegedly destroyed Kid Cudi's car. During her court testimony, Cassie revealed she confessed to infidelity with Kid Cudi to Diddy in 2011.

50 Cent Initiates Diddy Documentary

Following Cassie's lawsuit filing in November 2023, by December, 50 Cent's production company began creating a documentary addressing the accusations.

50 Cent shared a section of the documentary featuring Bad Boy Records' rapper Mark Curry, who accused Diddy of drugging women's drinks during parties.

"Proceeds from the G-Unit Film & Television documentary will aid survivors of sexual assault and rape."

50 Cent confirmed to Variety in September 2024 that the documentary, destined for Netflix, is underway. The release date remains unspecified, and Netflix representatives have issued no statements.

50 Cent Mocks Diddy Post-Arrest

Upon the public reveal of a federal indictment indicating that raiders seized illegal substances and over 1,000 bottles of baby oil and lubricant from Diddy's properties in March 2024, 50 Cent quickly responded.

He jokingly posted on X, "Unlike some, I'm in good company with @DrewBarrymoreTV and don't stock up on 1,000 bottles of lube."

Further Ridicule During Property Raids

In further antics, 50 Cent razzed Diddy post the federal raid on his estates. A since-deleted Instagram post from March 2024 depicted a TMZ report of the incident, along with the quip: "No longer 'Diddy do it,' now it's 'Diddy Done.' Such raids aren't baseless."

Reports then unveiled that 50 Cent also shared a visual of Diddy's sons in handcuffs, but this post was retracted—captioned, "Things just intensified. Fed's even got the kids cuffed."

In December 2024, Diddy released a statement on X saying: "I wish to affirm clearly: I am not guilty of the heinous allegations. I will defend my name, my family, and the truth."

Statements and Inquiry Outcomes

Neither representatives of 50 Cent nor Diddy provided comments to Business Insider regarding these occurrences.
