With Diddy on trial, 50 Cent reignites their beef by poking fun at Jay-Z. Here's a timeline of the decadeslong feud.
Sean "Diddy" Combs is on trial for racketeering and sex trafficking charges.
50 Cent used the trail as an opportunity to reignite their decadeslong feud.
On Wednesday, 50 Cent made fun of Diddy and Jay-Z's friendship.
With Sean "Diddy" Combs on trial over charges including racketeering and sex trafficking, 50 Cent has been gleefully fanning the flames of their two decadeslong feud.
The trial is separate to a civil lawsuit filed by Diddy's ex partner Cassie in November 2023, accusing him of rape, sexual assault, and human trafficking (which she said was settled for $20 million). Diddy has denied the allegations.
The beef between the two rappers kicked off publicly in 2006 when 50 Cent released a diss track called "The Bomb," which accused Diddy of knowing who shot and killed The Notorious B.I.G. in 1997.
Since then, the pair have taken numerous jabs at one another. In 2010, Diddy described 50 Cent as a "hating ass crap" after he became the manager of Rick Ross in 2009 — another rapper who 50 Cent had beef with.
Here are some key moments from the beef, and who else has become tangled up in it.
On Wednesday, 50 Cent shared an Instagram post showing photos of Jay-Z and Diddy over the years.
"Friends till the end, Jay you still there? We blew up Kid cudi's car to show him who's the BOSS! LOL," 50 Cent wrote in the caption speaking as Diddy.
Cassie's 2023 lawsuit against Diddy claimed that he was responsible for blowing up Kid Cudi's car. In her testimony during Diddy's ongoing trial, Cassie said she admitted to Diddy she cheated on him with Kid Cudi in 2011.
After Cassie filed her November 2023 lawsuit, by December 50 Cent's production company had started work on a documentary about the allegations.
50 Cent later posted a clip from the documentary featuring the Bad Boy Records rapper Mark Curry, alleging that Diddy spiked girls' drinks at parties.
50 Cent confirmed to Variety in September 2024 that he's making the documentary for Netflix. It's unclear when it will be released.
A representative from Netflix did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Business Insider about the documentary.
When the details of a federal indictment emerged, alleging that law enforcement seized narcotics and more than 1,000 bottles of baby oil and lubricant during raids on Diddy's mansions in March 2024, 50 Cent wasn't silent for long.
He wrote on X: "Here I am keeping good company with @DrewBarrymoreTV and I don't have 1,000 bottles of lube at the house."
50 Cent also taunted Diddy when federal officers raided his properties. In a since-deleted Instagram post from March 2024, he shared a screenshot of a TMZ article about the raids and wrote: "Now it's not Diddy do it, it's Diddy Done. They don't come like that unless they got a case."
Page Six reported at the time that 50 Cent also posted a screenshot of Diddy's two sons, Justin and King Combs, in handcuffs, but that post was also deleted.
In the caption, Page Six reported he wrote: "Shit just got real. The Fed's in all the cribs, damn they got the kids in cuffs."
In December 2024, Diddy posted a statement on X that read: "Let me be absolutely clear: I did not do any of the awful things being alleged. I will fight for my name, my family, and for the truth."
Representatives for 50 Cent and Diddy did not respond to requests for comment from BI.

Ginny and Georgia: Who has Georgia Miller killed? Your reminder of the fictional character's crimes
Ginny and Georgia has finally landed on Netflix for an unbelievably dramatic season three. The new 10-part season picks up right where the last one ended, with Georgia getting arrest for the murder of Tom Fuller. And now in the new season we'll be seeing her undergo trial and prove her innocence. Except if you've watched even one episode of this show, you'll know Georgia (Brianne Howey) is far from innocent. Over the first two series it's been revealed she's killed three people, shot another and committed a variety of crimes including theft and shoplifting. And as she is about to be put under the microscope, we thought it was only right to reexamine her various crimes, after all, it's been two years since the show was last on, so we're a little hazy on the details. So here is everything you need to know about Georgia Miller's murders. During Ginny and Georgia we get scenes both in the present timeline and also in various flashback timelines throughout Georgia's life. In season one we come to learn about Georgia's first murder. About a year after giving birth to Ginny, Georgia leaves Zion and his family and ends up working in a hotel in New Orleans. There, she meets Anthony Green, the owner of the hotel who looks after Ginny when she's working. During her time at the hotel Georgia starts an illegal poker ring to start earning some more money, however at one point she gets busted and lands in jail, with Ginny being sent to foster care. In order to try and get Ginny back, Georgia agrees to marry Anthony and come off as a woman in a happy healthy relationship with a stable home for her daughter. During their marriage she tries to knock him out with drugs to stop him irritating her, however she gives him too high a dosage and he overdoses. She calls on the help of the gang she used to run with called the Bloodeyes who help her to cover up the death and make it look like Anthony has gone missing. In season one we also learn about Georgia's first intentional murder. Just before they move to Wellsbury in the pilot episode, it turns out Georgia was married to a wealthy guy named Kenny Drexel. Kenny ran a series of yoga studios that Georgia ended up teaching at whilst married to him. One day she sees Kenny touch Ginny inappropriately and decides she needs to get her children out of the situation. She decides to kill Kenny by posinig him. She adds wolfsbane to his morning smoothie, which causes him to have a heart attack and crash his car while driving to work. This murder is unlike the others and is the one that sees Georgia land herself in jail. Throughout both seasons of the show, we know Georgia's frenemy Cynthia's husband Tom has suffered a serious illness which has left him in a coma. It takes it's toll on Cynthia throughout the series and at one point she tells Georgia in a drunken state: "I just want it to be over." In own twisted way of being a supportive friend, while picking Austin up from a playdate with Cynthia's son Zach, she goes into Tom's room and smothers his face with a pillow, killing him. What she doesn't realise at the time is Austin is watching his mother kill Tom from inside the cupboard. Will Georgia finally be sent to jail for her crimes? We really kinda hope not, but guess we'll just have to watch season three to find out. Ginny and Georgia is available on Netflix now

This fantasy action sequel just became one of Netflix's most-watched movies — and I'm not sure why
Fantasy fans might have spotted that an epic new action-adventure has crashed the Netflix US top 10 list. "Wrath of the Titans," Jonathan Liebesman's epic swords-and-sorcery follow-up to "Clash of the Titans" recently got added to the streaming service — and it looks to be a hit with subscribers. In just a few days, the sequel has already jumped up to the No. 3 spot in the streamer's most-watched movies list, behind the magical heist thriller "Now You See Me" and Netflix's recent crime thriller, "A Widow's Game". If you'd spotted the movie rising through the ranks and were trying to decide whether to stream "Wrath of the Titans" on Netflix, here's a little more info about the movie, and a quick round-up of critical opinion on the movie to help make up your mind. (spoilers: it's a definite skip from me) Following the box office success of "Clash of the Titans", Warner Bros. brought us another movie loosely inspired by the Greek mythos. Here, we find Perseus (Sam Worthington) attempting to live a quiet life as a fisherman and parent to his young son, Helius. Alas, conflict's brewing between the gods and the Titans, and when Ares (Édgar Ramirez) and Hades (Ralph Fiennes) ally with Titan leader Kronos, Perseus is dragged back into the fray. The traitorous gods make a deal to capture Perseus' father, Zeus (Liam Neeson), prompting the demigod to set off on a perilous journey into the underworld in order to rescue him. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. In addition to all those named above, "Wrath of the Titans" also stars Rosamund Pike, Toby Kebbell, Bill Nighy, Danny Huston, among others. Despite being a massive fantasy fan myself, I can't in good conscience recommend "Wrath of the Titans" unless you're really desperate to stream a loud, overblown swords-and-sorcery story. It's epic in genre and scope, but not exactly in terms of quality. The big draw here should be the action, and while some of the battles are well constructed (if edited in a disorienting manner), others lack real weight because they hinge so much on clashes with hulking beings mostly rendered with CGI. And, viewed through modern eyes, the effects certainly look dated (especially in the obviously made-for-3D viewings moments), and dominate the movie so much, making it quite a relentless and exhausting viewing experience. It wouldn't be as disappointing if "Wrath of the Titans" didn't also boast poor dialogue and stiff performances. And, seeing as practically every streaming service has turned its hand to fantasy at one point, these days, there are far better options out there (check out my round-up of the best fantasy shows on Netflix, for starters). I'm not the only one who wouldn't recommend it, though. As I mentioned, "Wrath of the Titans" doesn't exactly come highly praised. At the time of writing, the fantasy sequel holds a mere 26% critics score on the review aggregator, Rotten Tomatoes, with an audience score of 49% — indicating at best mixed reactions. Empire's Helen O'Hara gave "Wrath of the Titans" a two-star rating, writing: "If even a tenth of the care and attention lavished on the production design and action sequences had been afforded the script, this could have been an adventure of legendary proportions. As it is, this fizzles whenever anyone opens their mouths." Want a second opinion? Well, critic Roger Ebert echoed that take in his own two-star review: ""Wrath of the Titans' is obviously not concerned with plausibility. It lacks a comprehensible story, and you won't need your Cliff Notes on the Greek myths. You get an idea of who the major players are, and then they spend a modest amount of time shouting laughable dialogue at one another while being all but forced off the screen by special effects." Audience reactions on the platform vary wildly; some RT reviewers have "Wrath of the Titans" logged as a 5-star watch or "overhated" as a blockbuster release. Others, meanwhile, describe it as "boring," "forgettable," "cliché" and a "total waste of my time." Not sold on "Wrath of the Titans" after reading those takes?
