50 Cent celebrated the New Year in true form, engaging in playful trolling aimed at his rap adversaries. This week, he ignited a social media feud with Papoose by poking fun at the drama surrounding Papoose’s relationship with boxer Claressa Shields, who has been making headlines since they started dating in 2024.
In an Instagram post that has since been deleted, 50 Cent shared a humorous edited clip from the film “Black Sister’s Revenge” featuring the faces of Papoose and Claressa superimposed onto the characters, highlighting a scene in which the boxer slaps her rapper boyfriend. He captioned the video: “Now you see that, that’s assault! You can’t just go around putting your hands on people. LOL. Happy New Year!”
Papoose, not one to shy away from the banter, retaliated by posting an AI-generated video of 50 Cent in a humorous, exaggerated dance scene, dressed in a bikini top, hotpants, and high heels. He mocked, “No No No stop deflecting Curtis. The world is STILL waiting for ya response to Fab & them,” alluding to recent jabs thrown at 50 Cent by Fabolous, Jim Jones, Maino, and Dave East stemming from their freestyle responses to 50’s comments on their podcast, “Let’s Rap About It.”
Papoose continued his taunts, challenging 50 Cent’s credibility in the rap scene, asking, “You from southside do something? Fight or flight? Holla if you need a ghostwriter Champ… I mean Chump!”
Never one to back down, 50 responded with his signature humor, taking aim at Papoose’s taste in partners. Along with the dancing video, he quipped, “Look what Pap posted Hahaha, that look like one of his joints all his ho’s handsome. They tougher than him LOL.” He followed up with a photo poking fun at Papoose’s hairline, further fueling the exchange.
Papoose fought back by sharing yet another AI-generated video, this time depicting 50 Cent dancing in a shower with a pink bikini top and towel. He asked, “Why everybody keep comparing 50 to a bitch? Is it because he gossip so much? Why he STILL ain’t respond to Let’s rap about it? He know he ain’t nice for real! Go apologize to Banks Chump. You need him right now!”
This spirited exchange showcases that 50 Cent is fully committed to maintaining his reputation as the “pettiest rapper alive” as we head into 2026. Their playful feud reflects the ongoing rivalry in the rap world, reminding fans of the entertainment value that often accompanies these artists’ interactions.
