Rapper 50 Cent is back to his usual shenanigans of trolling any and everyone he doesn’t like or finds the slightest bit annoying. Recently, he just took shots at Rick Ross, teasing him for needing the help of Bow Wow to sell tickets.

With that in mind, we look back at all the people the G-Unit boss has trolled and had beef with over the years.

We’ve already gone through the dozens of times 50 Cent has trolled Diddy over the years. He’s constantly made fun of the music mogul while he goes through legal troubles and even plans on producing a documentary on Puff.

Ja Rule is 50 Cent’s longtime rival, as the two have had a beef with each other for nearly 30 years. Both sides have different reasons for why this feud started. Ja says it was because he didn’t include 50 Cent in the music video for the 1999 song “Murda 4 Life.” However, 50 Cent wrote in his 2005 book, “From Pieces to Weight,” that the beef started because a friend of his stole Ja’s necklace in 1999.

People may not know this, but 50 Cent was once a boxing promoter who helped form The Money Team (TMT) with Floyd Mayweather Jr. Due to their personal problems, the two eventually separated as business partners, costing the Queens rapper $2 million. 50 Cent has since made it his mission to troll Mayweather whenever he gets the chance. He once infamously challenged the boxer to read a page of a Harry Potter book.

50 Cent’s feud with Rick Ross began in 2008, when the MMG rapper essentially called 50 irrelevant during a radio interview. The two have since taken small shots at each other, with the G-Unit boss clowning Ross for going on The Millennium Tour with Bow Wow and Omarion.

Even after Irv Gotti shockingly passed, 50 Cent still had to get the last laugh. In an Instagram post, he wrote, “I’m smoking on dat Gotti pack.” His issues with Gotti are related to his beef with Ja Rule since he was signed to Murder Inc., Gotti’s record label. In 2000, a brawl took place at a New York studio between the G-Unit and Murder Inc. crews that resulted in 50 Cent being stabbed. Gotti is also associated with a drug dealer who was accused of shooting 50 nine times while he was at his grandmother’s house.

Hov isn’t even safe from 50 Cent’s jokes. He will often randomly take shots at Jay-Z when he’s in the news. Recently, he lumped in Jay with Diddy after he was accused of rape in a now-dropped lawsuit.

The Game

The Game was once 50 Cent’s prodigy, as he was placed in G-Unit with the help of Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine, who was CEO of Interscope records at the time. When The Game said he wouldn’t get involved in any of 50’s beef during a 2005 radio interview, 50 Cent lost it and kicked him out of the group. Since then, there’s been beef between the two.

The two seem to be corgial now since they’re both feuding with Jim Jones. However, things weren’t always cool between the two. In 2007, while 50 Cent was live on air for a radio interview, Cam called into the station, and the two got into a heated argument.

Jim Jones may be one of 50 Cent’s newest troll victims. Recently, during an interview on “The Breakfast Club,” Jones referred to 50 as a “sucka.” The Queens rapper has responded by posting embarrassing photos of Jones on social media, among other things.

Nas

These two Queens MCs have since straightened their problems out. However, 50 Cent was originally frustrated when his guest verse on Jennifer Lopez’s 1999 song, “I’m Gonna Be Alright” was replaced by Nas. A short feud than began between the two with 50 dissing Nas on the 2005 record, “Piggy Bank.”

50 Cent and Kanye West never had a real beef, but there was a competitive rivalry between the two. In 2007, the two battled to see which of their albums (West’s “Graduation” and 50’s “Curtis) would have better sales. They went on an entire promotional tour that ended in Ye coming out on top as his album sold 957,000 copies in its first week and 50’s album sold 691,000 copies.

Fat Joe got caught up in 50 Cent’s beef with Ja Rule after he collaborated on the 2004 track “New York.” Fiddy then took shots at Joe on the 2005 song “Piggy Bank.”

This feud recently became public after 50 Cent shared screenshots of messages between him and the “BMF” actor. He criticized Lil Meech’s behavior on the set of the Starz show and claimed that he’s addicted to drugs.
