50 Cent has found himself embroiled in yet another public feud, this time with rapper Papoose. The latest developments unfolded on social media, where both artists have exchanged barbs following a controversial incident involving professional boxer Claressa Shields and comedian Gerald Huston.
The conflict began last week when 50 Cent shared an AI-generated video on Instagram. The clip displayed the faces of Papoose and Shields superimposed on characters from the film Black Sister’s Revenge. This post seemed to reference an October incident where Huston publicly trolled Shields by mistaking her for tennis star Serena Williams. In response, Papoose allegedly confronted Huston, reportedly striking him with a book.
In a typical display of his provocative style, 50 Cent captioned the post, “Now you see, that’s assault! You can’t just go around putting your hands on PEOPLE. LOL Happy New Year!” The comment highlighted his penchant for stirring the pot in the hip-hop community.
Despite the jabs thrown by 50 Cent, Papoose retaliated by posting an AI-generated video depicting 50 Cent in a humorous light, wearing hoop earrings, a bra, and shorts. The back-and-forth continued when 50 Cent shared a clip featuring Papoose‘s ex-wife, Remy Ma. In the clip, she commented, “[My] ex might be the least income-making person that I’ve ever been with. Ever.” This prompted 50 Cent to mock Papoose in his caption.
The exchange escalated when Claressa Shields entered the fray, stating, “These rappers don’t get they a** beat enough that’s the problem.” She also reminded 50 Cent of a previous invitation to collaborate on his nonprofit, which he acknowledged, admitting to being a fan of hers.
In response to this ongoing tension, Papoose has taken the next step in the feud. On January 7, 2024, he shared a preview of a new song on Instagram, hinting at his feelings regarding 50 Cent. He captioned the clip, “Best ever… the untouchable ‘PAPOOSE’. If you feel something kill something! đ.” While fans eagerly await the full release of the track, it remains uncertain when it will officially drop.
As it stands, 50 Cent has yet to publicly address the new song snippet. The dynamic between these two artists continues to captivate their followers, with each social media interaction adding fuel to the fire. The hip-hop community is abuzz with speculation as to how this rivalry will unfold in the coming days.
