In a dramatic resurgence of their long-standing feud, rapper Ja Rule has once again taken aim at 50 Cent, following comments made by the latter on the Breakfast Club. The ongoing rivalry between the two hip-hop icons, which has spanned decades, flared up when Ja Rule was asked about 50 Cent’s recent remarks regarding Irv Gotti, who recently passed away.
During the interview, Ja Rule could have opted for a more diplomatic approach, choosing instead to take a shot at 50 Cent and reignite the animosity that has characterized their relationship over the years. He remarked on the perpetual back-and-forth between them, acknowledging that while he tries to stay clear of the drama, he can’t help but engage when provoked. Ja Rule expressed frustration over what he perceives as 50 Cent’s trolling behavior, stating, “I think the focus should be on… pushing the culture forward, not this goofy [expletive].”
Despite attempts to distance himself from the feud, Ja Rule revealed that he was initially angered by 50 Cent’s comments but chose to take a step back after a conversation with fellow rapper Master P, who advised him to focus on self-defense rather than instigating further conflict. However, the peace was short-lived. Following 50 Cent’s jabs on social media—one of which insinuated that Ja Rule was irrelevant—Ja Rule took to Twitter to unleash his frustrations. He emphatically told 50 Cent to “suck my [expletive]” and dismissed him as a “used car salesman” in the industry, criticizing his music and television endeavors.
The exchange has drawn mixed reactions from fans and observers. Some have pointed out that despite 50 Cent’s wealth and success, he appears to be unhappy, while others noted the complexities of their history, which includes violent encounters and betrayals. Ja Rule’s comments about 50 Cent’s shooting incident were particularly notable, as he pointed out the contradiction in 50 Cent’s tough persona juxtaposed with his past experiences. This led to calls from fans for a boxing match between the two artists, suggesting that enough is enough and it is time to settle their differences in the ring.
As the rivalry continues to unfold, the question remains: will these two hip-hop legends ever put their differences aside, or are fans in for more years of this back-and-forth? With tensions reaching a boiling point, social media is abuzz with speculation and commentary, as followers eagerly await the next move in this storied feud.
