T.I. Drops Two 50 Cent Disses
T.I. released two diss tracks aimed at 50 Cent—"War" and "Right One"—escalating their feud beyond the canceled Verzuz battle. The beef intensified after 50 Cent posted a photo of T.I.'s wife Tiny on social media, adding a personal edge to the conflict. T.I.'s son King Harris also jumped into the fray on Instagram, defending his family online.
- The feud escalated after T.I. claimed on a podcast that 50 Cent had agreed to a Verzuz battle years ago but then backed out. T.I. stated that because of this, he no longer respects 50 Cent and would not share a stage with him. - In response to the Verzuz claims, 50 Cent posted a video of a 2010 Crime Stoppers commercial T.I. participated in, suggesting that T.I. was a snitch. He also posted a clip of T.I. testifying in 2008 regarding the murder of his friend and assistant, Philant Johnson. - The conflict has roots stretching back to at least 2008, when 50 Cent released a song called "You So Tough." On the track, he questioned how T.I. received a relatively light sentence after being charged with possession of machine guns, which many interpreted as an accusation of cooperating with law enforcement. - T.I. first publicly challenged 50 Cent to a Verzuz battle on 50 Cent's 45th birthday in July 2020. In his challenge, T.I. referenced 50 Cent's 2007 album sales battle with Kanye West, saying, "last time you got challenged Kanye West dusted your ass off." - After 50 Cent posted an unflattering photo of T.I.'s wife Tiny, their son King Harris responded aggressively on Instagram, telling 50 Cent to "dig up yo mama" in a series of explicit posts and stories. Harris also posted a photo of what appeared to be the gravesite of 50 Cent's late mother, Sabrina Jackson. - 50 Cent's response to both King Harris's comments and T.I.'s diss track was minimal and dismissive. He posted a meme of Pepe the Frog with the caption "LOL" on his Instagram.
