50 Cent‘s resume is extensive—rapper, actor, producer, and entrepreneur. Yet, his adept trolling skills get overlooked. Since footage has surfaced of an alleged altercation taking place between Diddy (real name Sean Combs) and his then-girlfriend, Cassie Ventura, the rapper has been on a social media tear.
On Friday (May 17), 50 hopped on Instagram, sharing a clip of the footage obtained by CNN of the alleged altercation between Combs and Ventura, writing “[eye emoji] Now I’m sure puffy didn’t do it, he is innocent this proves nothing! This is what his lawyers are gonna say, God help us all [prayer hands emoji]! It didn’t stop there, in several more posts the rapper took shots at Combs, even posted his statement after multiple allegations continued to mount against him: “ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. For the last couple of weeks, I have sat silently and watched people try to assassinate my character, destroy my reputation and my legacy,” he said.
The Power creator captioned the post, writing, “The lie detector test has determined this was a lie…. Maury vibes.” In another post, 50 shares a TikTok video from internet comedian, @therealbubbadub’s reaction to the footage leaking. “P.Diddy you a sick son of [he bleeps out] is what you is,” he says in the video. “You ran that woman down like she was a warthog.”
Is 50 Cent Hip Hop’s Troll King?
50 Cent sarcastically admits that while he shouldn’t be laughing at the commentary, he can’t help himself. “This is not funny [laugh emoji] but this fool makes me laugh. It’s how he say sh!t. LOL.” In one of his latest posts, the rapper shared an Instagram post from the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s office. In the post, the DA office notes that while it found the video of the alleged altercation “extremely” disturbing, the disgraced mogul will not face charges because of California’s statute of limitations.
“As of today, law enforcement has not presented a case related to the attack depicted in the video against Mr. Combs, but we encourage anyone who has been a victim or witness to a crime to report it to law enforcement or reach out to our office for support from our Bureau of Victims Services,” the post read. In Fif’s opinion, the video helps give weight to the mounting allegations against Diddy. “…They know they can’t charge him with what we saw, but they know we can’t un see what we saw,” the post’s caption read.
More recently, 50 posted a screenshot from an Instagram Story from an apparent industry tastemaker, where he shares a bizarre encounter with Combs, alleging that he made a pass at him. “I told everybody that #BAN back in 2011 when he took a pass at me over the @frenchmontana deal,” he wrote. 50 calls the situation “bad” and claims many people aren’t speaking up because they could have possibly got caught on film doing illicit activities.
