Here's How Fans Are Reacting to 50 Cent Posting Another Photo of Himself in a ‘Free Diddy' Shirt
50 Cent trolled Diddy on Tuesday night (May 27) when he posted an image of himself on Instagram rocking a 'Free Diddy' T-shirt while sitting courtside at game four between the New York Knicks and Indiana Pacers. The photo itself appears to be Photoshopped or AI-generated with a 'Free Diddy' logo, as 50 posted a similar picture rocking a Balmain T-shirt at the game. 'Bro this game is crazy,' he captioned the 'Free Diddy' shirt photo.

'Dis nigga too 2 too funni!!!! YesLawd,' Lynch, a former NFL star, wrote. A fan chimed in, 'I want a t shirt of 50 cent wearing a free diddy t shirt.' Another fan added, '50 already gettin started, wait till he finish that drink!' Billboard has reached out to the rapper's rep for comment. 50 has been relentless in his trolling of Diddy throughout the embattled Bad Boy mogul's sex trafficking and racketeering trial, and it doesn't appear he'll be stopping anytime soon. The G-Unit boss was actually name-dropped during Diddy's trial on Tuesday when a former assistant of Combs', Capricorn Clark, took the stand. Clark claimed that Diddy 'had an issue with 50 Cent.' In typical 50 fashion, the Queens legend made light of the court situation. 'Oh my goodness itty bitty Diddy wants me Dead, I have to lay low, I think I'm gonna hide out at the playoff game tonight. LOL,' he wrote to IG. This also wasn't the first time 50 has shared a photo of himself in a 'Free Diddy' shirt. On May 20, the rapper posted an AI-generated image of himself in a black tee featuring the same message and wrote in part for the caption: 'Free itty bitty Diddy! LOL 😆' Diddy's trial is heading into day 10, but is expected to last into July. Combs, who has pleaded not guilty, faces a potential sentence of life in prison if convicted on all charges.

50 Cent Jokes He Needs to ‘Lay Low' After Ex-Assistant Testifies About Diddy's ‘Problem' With Fif
50 Cent isn't letting up on his self-appointed coverage of the Diddy trial, and he continues to have fun with AI to help with his trolling. This time around, the Queens rapper and filmmaker reacted on social media to his name being mentioned during Diddy's ex-assistant Capricorn Clark's testimony on Tuesday morning (May 27), during which she told prosecutors about a time her former boss had a gun because 'he had a problem with 50 Cent.'

The first thing Fif posted was an AI-generated image of himself in a suit on a film set along with the caption, 'Cut, CUT. Wait a minute PUFFY's got a gun, I can't believe this I don't feel safe LOL,' and a screenshot of the exchange above. He then posted another AI-generated pic of himself with a scared look on his face with the caption, 'Oh my goodness, itty bitty Diddy wants me dead. I have to lay low, I think I'm gonna hide out at the playoff game tonight,' in reference to Game 4 of the New York Knicks and Indiana Pacers Eastern Conference Finals NBA playoff series. Over the weekend, he posted (you guessed it) yet another AI-generated image, but this time it was a picture of Diddy with gray hair in court with a caption saying he thinks the embattled mogul will eventually do 20 years behind bars. 'What's the spread on this,' 50 asked. 'I got Diddy doing 20. His friends just got the f— away for him. SMH BadBoy Dangerous!' Last week, 50 poked fun at people allegedly wearing 'Free Diddy' shirts outside the Manhattan federal courthouse for $20 an hour by posting an AI-generated picture of himself wearing a shirt.

50 Cent trolls ‘Molotov' Sean Diddy with aged AI snap amid trial, blasts him for ‘traumatizing' Kid Cudi's dog
50 Cent circulated an AI image of rapper Sean 'P. Diddy' Combs, teasing how the music tycoon may look after 20 years in prison. The In Da Club musician, who has been an outspoken critic of the founder of Bad Boy Records since Diddy's alleged sex trafficking was made public, has been merciless with regard to the rapper's ongoing legal disputes. 50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis James Jackson III, has been making fun of his fellow rapper on social media. In his latest Instagram jibe against Diddy, 50 Cent shared an AI image of the rapper looking weathered and old during his appearances in court. 'What's the spread on this, I got Diddy doing 20. His friends just got the f-- away for him. SMH BadBoy Dangerous!' Also Read: 'Can't believe this is me'; Rosie O'Donnell stuns fans with drastic weight loss from Mounjaro, what is it? In a previous post, 50 Cent made fun of the claim that Diddy used a Molotov cocktail to destroy rapper Kid Cudi's car. In court, Cudi stated that Combs, who was seeing Diddy's ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura, broke into his house in 2012 and used the weapon to blow up his Porsche 911 convertible. Cudi went on to claim that Diddy traumatized his dog in the process. A post shared by 50 Cent (@50cent) 50 Cent quickly posted pictures of the burned-out car online, writing, 'Molotov Diddy was doing old school s--- out here. Old killer Rat Jimmy threw one them at us. LOL.' A post shared by 50 Cent (@50cent) Earlier this week, 50 Cent posted an image of Kid Cudi wearing what looked like a bridal gown. He added a scathing comment, saying, 'Cudi gonna testify like, I'm on your a-- now Diddy DON'T ACT LIKE YA DIDN'T DO IT NOW! YA DID IT! LOL.' The three federal indictments against Diddy included sex trafficking, conspiracy racketeering, and transportation to engage in prostitution. He has proclaimed himself innocent on all counts. Earlier this month, the Queens rapper also posted a video of people alleging to have been given money for sporting 'Free Diddy' shirts. 50 stated in the caption, 'Diddy paying people to wear Free Diddy shirts is diabolical.' 'But $20 a hour ain't bad. I might go throw that on for a hour tomorrow,' he added.

50 Cent Clowns Floyd Mayweather Jr.'s $100M Defamation Lawsuit
50 Cent is back on social media doing what he does best: throwing jabs. This time, the target of his taunts is longtime frenemy Floyd Mayweather Jr., who recently filed a $100 million federal lawsuit against Business Insider, its parent company Insider Inc., and reporter Daniel Geiger. Filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, the lawsuit accuses the outlet of publishing a 'knowingly false and defamatory' article that Mayweather says damaged his real estate empire. According to the lawsuit, Geiger 'repeatedly ignored documentary proof of Mayweather's ownership and business success, refused multiple invitations to review verified transaction records, and relied instead on unnamed sources and innuendo.' Mayweather further claims that he 'lost lease opportunities at his buildings' and suffered missed 'emergency rent-freeze concessions' because of the article, which he believes was driven by 'racial and political bias.' But 50 Cent didn't hold back his skepticism. Taking to Instagram, the rapper-turned-TV mogul wrote, 'Well that case is going nowhere because you didn't do the deal champ. He must have named the writer separately to make him have to pay his own legal team. Champ mad.' Mayweather, however, insists this legal battle is about more than just image. 'This lawsuit isn't just about setting the record straight,' his attorney Bobby Samini stated. 'It's about holding the press accountable when they cross the line from journalism into calculated character assassination.' 'I'm 48 years old, and I've never sued a media outlet,' Mayweather explained. 'But the media outlets, throughout my life, have bashed me, talked bad about me, spoke bad about my family… Judge me for the person that you know.' Insider fired back, promising, 'We will vigorously defend against this meritless attempt to discredit our reporting and smear our reporter.' In classic 50 fashion, the trolling was swift—and brutal.

50 Cent Deems Chris Brown The 'Best Overall Artist Out'
Chris Brown has been released on bail in the U.K. following his arrest last week. Upon hearing news of his freedom, rapper 50 Cent took to his Instagram page praising the singer's talents. 'CB out he made bond, I'm only saying sh*t about him because I think he is the best overall artist out,' the Queens rapper, 49, declared. 'I watched his whole run!' See the post below. Brown, 36, was arrested and taken into custody at The Lowry Hotel in Manchester on Thursday, May 15. The arrest stems from a 2023 incident where the singer allegedly assaulted producer Abe Diaw with a bottle of alcohol at Tape nightclub. 'A 36-year-old man was arrested at a hotel in Manchester shortly after 02:00hrs on Thursday, 15 May on suspicion of grievous bodily harm,' a Metropolitan Police spokesperson confirmed. 'He has been taken into custody where he remains. The arrest relates to an incident at a venue in Hanover Square on 19 February 2023. The investigation is being led by detectives from the Central West Area Basic Command Unit.' After being denied bail once, Brown was released on $6.7M bail following a hearing on Wednesday (May 21), with the amount being forfeited if certain conditions are not met or if he does not make it to his next court appearance, the British Press Association reported. Brown is now free to begin the European leg of his Breezy Bowl Tour. Between shows at Cardiff's Principality Stadium and London's Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, however, the 'Sensational' artist has a court date of June 20. He has also been ordered by Judge Tony Baumgartner to surrender his passport unless it is being used for tour purposes.
