Finesse2Tymes Reacts to 50 Cent's Unsolicited Advice to Call His Estranged Mom
Finesse2Tymes shut down 50 Cent's recommendation that the Memphis rapper call his mom amid their public fallout. Last week, Finesse's mother, Pluria Alexander, launched a GoFundMe campaign for moving expenses after claiming to be threatened with eviction. Alexander alleges that the Memphis rapper, real name Ricky Hampton, has financially cut her off, and she now faces homelessness. As Alexander has continued to demand financial help from Finesse on social media, on Tuesday (August 12), Fifty weighed in on Instagram. "Hey Finesse you look like yo momma man just call her," the G-Unit frontman wrote, per The Shade Room. "I said what the f**ksdo you do when that happens, nothing look at her and say you want some of this money or not." COMPLEX SHOP: Shop the brands you love, anytime and anywhere. Uncover what's next. Buy. Collect. Obsess. The "Back End" rapper responded on his Instagram Story by telling Fif to patch things up with his eldest son, Marquise Jackson. Finesse also changed his Instagram profile picture to an image of Eminem as B-Rabbit in his 2002 film 8 Mile. In a freestyle video posted on Instagram over the weekend, Finesse rapped about "family problems" making him feel similar to the 15-time Grammy winner. As depicted in Em's older songs like "Cleanin' Out My Closet" and "Mockingbird," and fictionalized in 8 Mile, the Detroit native and his now-deceased mother had a volatile relationship. Fifty's relationship with his eldest son is just as rocky, as the two have publicly feuded over financial entitlement and the rapper allegedly being an absentee parent. On Father's Day, Jackson joked on Instagram about the likelihood of his father acknowledging him by posting a mock sports betting chart. "Oh it's Father's Day 😳. Happy Father's Day to all the real ones! I'm watching my bet and it ain't looking too good 🤦🏾♂️ I got the over… We all know this the day for photo ops, the 28-year-old captioned the post.

Finesee2Tymes' Mom Launches Fundraiser: 'My Son's Actions Have Left Me Homeless'
Finesse2Tymes' mother, Pluria Alexander, says he has stopped providing her with financial support. Alexander, who says she is at risk of eviction, recently began a GoFundMe campaign seeking $6,000 for moving expenses after her landlord gave her only days to pay rent or leave the property. 'Until recently, my son was helping me pay my bills, but after a falling out, I've been left to manage everything on my own,' she wrote on the fundraising page. 'Before I move to Texas I lived in Memphis, working, had my own car own place. I don't know anybody here to help me. This is the third time my son's actions have left me homeless, and each time it becomes harder to recover.' Alexander claims she has been dealing with anxiety, depression, and what she calls 'narcissistic abuse' from her son. COMPLEX SHOP: Shop the brands you love, anytime and anywhere. Uncover what's next. Buy. Collect. Obsess. Her struggles, she continued, have only been exacerbated after being charged with money laundering in early 2024, which she claims was the result of getting scammed by Nigerian fraudsters. According to court records viewed by Complex, the case is still open as of this writing, with a hearing scheduled for Monday (August 11). 'This charge has made it nearly impossible to secure housing, as I've already been denied by three different apartments,' Alexander wrote. 'Despite these setbacks, I'm determined to find stable housing so I can rebuild and stay connected to my support system. The funds I raise will go directly toward moving costs, transportation, and deposits for a new place.' She concluded, 'Your support would mean the world to me. It would give me a chance to start over, stay near my loved ones, and focus on my health and well-being while I navigate this difficult legal situation. Thank you for considering helping me during this challenging time.'

Finesse2Tymes Says 'Family Problems' Make Him 'Feel Like Eminem' In Freestyle
Finesse2Tymes compared problems with his mother to Eminem's relationship with his late mother, Debbie Nelson, in a recent freestyle. The Memphis rapper's mother, Pluria Alexander, recently launched a GoFundMe campaign after being threatened with eviction. In the fundraiser's description, Alexander wrote that her son, real name Ricky Hampton, had paid her housing before the two had a falling out. "This is the third time my son's actions have left me homeless, and each time it becomes harder to recover," Alexander wrote. After being slammed online for the estrangement, Finesse responded with a freestyle on Saturday (August 9), where he rapped, "Five years, relatives, family problems, now I feel like Eminem." COMPLEX SHOP: Shop the brands you love, anytime and anywhere. Uncover what's next. Buy. Collect. Obsess. The rapper also called himself "paranoid" with "trust issues" and further rapped about distrust and being previously incarcerated. "I learned how to turn pain into profit 🩸🪶Ps: I wasn't finish I just Couldn't control my emotions at end but yaw get it tho 💯🤲🏽" he captioned the post. Although Eminem and his mother reconciled before her death in December 2024, their relationship was strained throughout his childhood and early career. The 15-time Grammy winner opened up about their estrangement in songs like 2002's "Cleanin' Out My Closet," in which he accused her of having Munchausen syndrome by proxy. Three years before, Nelson sued her son for $10 million, accusing him of defamatory lyrics about her alleged drug use in his breakthrough hit "My Name Is." He would respond viciously on his next album ("My fuckin' b**chsmom's sued me for ten million/She must want a dollar for every pill I been stealin'"), but would eventually apologize on his 2014 song "Headlights," with the music video depicting them in an embrace. Debbie Nelson died of complications from advanced lung cancer.
