50 Cent continues to troll Jay-Z and Diddy.
While sitting down with The Breakfast Club on Tuesday (Oct. 29), the subject of Diddy came up, and Charlamagne Tha God asked the Queens rapper and filmmaker about a meme that said he ghostwrote verses for the fallen mogul on the songs “Let’s Get It” and “I Get Money (Forbes 1, 2, 3 Remix)” that sound like confessions.
First, Charlamagne played the beginning of Diddy’s verse on G. Dep‘s “Let’s Get It” where he raps, “Call me Diddy, I run this city/Send the cops, the D.A. and feds to come get me,” which 50 laughed off and said, “I didn’t tell him to say that.”
He then plays the start of Diddy’s verse on the “I Get Money” remix where the Bad Boy boss spits, “Bo knows but Diddy did it/ Cars, jewelry and big homes, yeah, Diddy did it/ Shootouts, coastal beefs, yeah, Diddy did it/ But my lawyer’s so good that Diddy got acquitted.” 50 then immediately reveals that he got help with that verse from Jay-Z. “Jay helped me with that,” he said. “Jay did that part right there where he said, ‘Shootouts, coastal beefs.’ I wasn’t around for that, that was like East Coast/West Coast.” He then brought up Keefe D, who’s currently incarcerated for 2Pac‘s murder and who has long claimed that Diddy was allegedly involved in some way.

50 then added, “There were certain things he wanted to say and Jay knew he wanted to insert it into the record,” he claimed. “He would be like, ‘Yo, put this in there.’ ‘Cause his mind is formatted like that. Now, artists freestyle and freestyle and freestyle — Jay remembers the idea in his head so he can just say it without writing it down.”
According, to 50 Cent, he tried to stay to himself once he got his second chance at a rapper career when he was scorching hot after his mixtape run got him a deal with Dr. Dre and Eminem. “I really don’t trust a lot of the people,” he admitted. “I was so hot, it was clear I was under investigation.”
50 has been very vocal about Diddy and the allegations made against him over the years and even has a documentary centered around them coming to Netflix.
