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.

Former NDP leader Jagmeet Singh apologizes for attending Kendrick Lamar show
TORONTO — Jagmeet Singh is saying sorry for attending one of Kendrick Lamar's Toronto concerts last week. The former NDP leader issued an apology on Sunday after being called out by Drake, who branded him a "goof" for being seen at the Rogers Centre supporting his rap nemesis amid their ongoing feud. Singh's statement said he went to see "SZA not Kendrick," referring to the Los Angeles rapper's tourmate. Drake and Lamar have been embroiled in a rap beef that exploded last summer with a series of diss tracks, including Lamar's No. 1 hit single "Not Like Us." Photos posted on social media showed Singh in what appeared to be floor seats at the stadium concert. It was unclear which of the show's two nights he attended. The rapper trades off mini-sets with SZA for the duration of the three-hour concert, performing numerous Drake diss tracks he released last year. Drake is suing Universal Music Group for defamation for publishing and promoting Lamar's "Not Like Us." In legal documents, the rapper born Aubrey Graham, said the song's lyrics wrongly accuse him of being a pedophile, jeopardizing his safety and damaging his reputation. Universal calls Drake's suit a baseless "attack on the commercial and creative success of the rap artist who defeated him.' Earlier Sunday, Drake posted a screenshot on his Instagram Stories showing that he direct-messaged Singh and called him out for attending Lamar's show. Several hours later, Singh published his apology on Instagram. 'I was born in this city. I love this city. But real talk, I get it. I shouldn't have gone at all," he said. "OVO and Drake have lifted this city and (Canada). For me it'll always be Drake over Kendrick." Singh stepped down as the federal NDP leader in April after a resounding defeat on election night where he lost his own riding. This report by The Canadian Press was first published June 16, 2025.
