50 Cent makes a disrespectful comment about Jay-Z amidst rape accusations

The G-Unit founder had previously taken a subtle swipe at Jay-Z regarding the Roc Nation CEO’s involvement with the Super Bowl Half Time show.

Jay-Z is being accused of joining embattled rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs to rape a 13-year-old at an MTV Video Music Awards after-party in 2000.

During the Los Angeles premiere of Blue Ivy’s film, Jay-Z was by Beyoncé’s side as they celebrated their daughter’s achievement, but 50 Cent didn’t miss the opportunity to bring up the rape allegations made against Jay-Z.

His appearance at the event raised eyebrows everywhere on social media, given the rape allegations against him.

As social media users deliberated on it, rapper 50 Cent took another swipe at Jay-Z barely a full day after he had trolled the Roc Nation founder.

The allegations, which were brought up by an anonymous accuser in a legal case, became a target for 50 Cent’s trolling as he made a direct reference to them in his latest jab at Jay-Z.

“Jay said they said I rapped [sic] a kid, everybody get dressed we going to see Mufasa LOL,” 50 Cent wrote in a post which has since been deleted, per the Daily Mail.

Previously, 50 Cent shaded Jay-Z by making a post where he asked whether the allegations against the rapper might derail the Super Bowl from taking place.

“Ok I don’t know what’s going on, but are we gonna still have the Super Bowl. I’m just asking for a friend,” the “In Da Club” crooner wrote, adding a famous meme of himself.

While the rapper didn’t clarify what he meant by the remark, fans speculated that 50 Cent might have been alluding to the Super Bowl Halftime Show, where Jay-Z’s Roc Nation collaborates with Apple Music as an entertainment partner.

The “Candy Shop” crooner later appeared on a podcast where he also clarified that the friend he referenced in his remark was Kendrick Lamar, who is slated to headline the next edition of the Halftime show.

He also stated that the NFL wouldn’t want to associate themselves with the ongoing allegations against Jay-Z.

Several days ago, Jay-Z was named in an amended lawsuit as one of the individuals who raped a 13-year-old at an MTV Video Music Awards after-party in 2000.

In response to the allegations, Jay-Z released a statement declaring his innocence and claiming he was being “blackmailed.”

“My lawyer received a blackmail attempt, called a demand letter, from a ‘lawyer’ named Tony Buzbee,” the Roc Nation founder wrote.

Jay-Z added, “What he had calculated was the nature of these allegations and the public scrutiny would make me want to settle. No sir, it had the opposite effect! It made me want to expose you for the fraud you are in a VERY public fashion. So no, I will not give you ONE RED PENNY!!”

Following the statement, the rapper also filed documents requesting the court to compel the alleged victim to reveal her identity.

He also mentioned in the docs that he was named in the rape lawsuit because he refused to give in to the “extortionate” demands of the victim’s lawyer.

After Jay-Z released a statement on the rape allegations against him, attorney Buzbee swiftly replied, calling out the rapper’s comments.

In a statement to TMZ, Buzbee said the rapper had “previously denied being the one who sued me and my firm,” referencing an extortion suit that was filed against him by a person who described himself as a “high-profile individual.”

The lawyer also shared that the Roc Nation founder had tried to hide that he was the one who filed the “frivolous case” by using a “pseudonym” in the suit.

Buzbee then defended himself, saying that Jay-Z failed to mention that the “demand letter,” which the rapper claimed was a “blackmail attempt,” did not include any discussions about money.

He told the news outlet: “What [Jay-Z] fails to say in his recent statement is my firm sent his lawyer a demand letter on behalf of an alleged victim, and that victim never demanded a penny from him.”

Recently, reports revealed that Jay-Z’s wife, Beyoncé, wants their family to confront the accusations “head-on.”

“They are working with a crisis specialist who is advising them on how to handle this,” a source told the Daily Mail about the Carter family after their red-carpet appearance.

They added, “Beyoncé believes that the best way is to face it head-on. Blue Ivy is well aware of what is going on and is intent on supporting her father in any way she can. She was there in solidarity with her dad and mom.”

The source also shared that Beyoncé had long anticipated that her husband might be dragged into the controversies surrounding embattled rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs.

“This has been hanging over [Beyonce and Jay-Z’s] head since Diddy’s arrest,” the insider added. “It has been causing a strain on their marriage … [and] they have had many discussions about how it would play out if Jay were to ever be convicted of anything surrounding Diddy.”
