T.I.'s Sons Escalate 50 Cent Feud
Domani Harris released "Ms Jackson," a pointed diss track aimed at 50 Cent, while King Harris wore a t-shirt featuring an image of 50 Cent's late mother for his own diss track. The moves have stirred controversy and intensified the personal nature of the ongoing hip-hop beef between their father T.I. and 50 Cent. Social media shows the feud escalating with diss tracks drawing major attention.
The feud's recent flare-up traces back to T.I. claiming on the "Million Dollaz Worth of Game" podcast that he and 50 Cent had privately agreed to a Verzuz battle, only for 50 Cent to publicly act unaware of the arrangement. This public denial and subsequent trolling from 50 Cent, who posted an old Crime Stoppers ad featuring T.I., shifted the conflict from a musical challenge to a personal dispute. The conflict escalated when 50 Cent posted an unflattering photo of T.I.'s wife, Tameka "Tiny" Harris, on Instagram. This prompted T.I.'s sons to enter the fray in defense of their mother. King Harris initiated his response with a fiery social media rant, telling 50 Cent to "go dig up" his deceased mother, Sabrina Jackson. Domani Harris, T.I.'s 24-year-old son, released a diss track titled "Ms. Jackson," which samples the OutKast classic of the same name. The lyrics are framed as a direct address to 50 Cent's late mother, questioning if she would be proud of her son's actions and contains pointed lines like, "The next time you missing Mama, I can send you right to her." The song also references accusations that 50 Cent was involved in a suspicious fire at the home of an ex-girlfriend. In his diss track "Sayless," King Harris wore a t-shirt featuring a photo of Sabrina Jackson. The song's lyrics continue the provocation, with lines such as, "Ya mama in the grave, dig her up then put her under." The music video shows him lighting a blunt and appearing to offer it to the image on his shirt. 50 Cent has largely refrained from releasing his own diss tracks, instead opting for social media trolling. His responses have included posting a meme of Pepe the Frog to mock King Harris's appearance and a post with the caption, "No rappers, No bad BBL's, No little f*cked up albino kids," which was interpreted as a jab at the Harris family. He has since deleted many of the posts related to the feud. The involvement of T.I.'s sons has drawn reactions from others in the hip-hop community. Rapper Rick Ross, a long-time rival of 50 Cent, commented on King Harris's Instagram post, requesting one of the controversial t-shirts for himself in a show of support.
