Tensions between 50 Cent and Rick Ross have reignited, with the G-Unit leader’s recent comments sparking a swift and fiery response from the Florida rapper.

In a teaser clip for the podcast Million Dollaz Worth of Game, 50 Cent took aim at Ross, questioning the financial stability and upkeep of the rapper’s lavish estate in Fayetteville, Georgia.

50 Cent insinuated that Ross’s ventures outside of music, particularly his nightclub appearances, were insufficient to maintain his grand lifestyle. He also mocked Ross for personally handling the maintenance of his property, suggesting that such actions were a sign of financial struggle. His remarks did not go unnoticed.

Rick Ross, known for his sharp retorts, quickly fired back. He highlighted his successes, including his luxurious mansion, private jet, and the success of his recent Car & Bike Show. Ross also took the opportunity to question 50 Cent’s loyalty to Dr. Dre, alluding to the G-Unit boss’s recent association with Drake, who has had ongoing tensions with Kendrick Lamar, a protégé of Dr. Dre.

Adding fuel to the fire, Ross mockingly invited 50 Cent to use his estate as a filming location for his television projects, a jab at the New York rapper’s expanding endeavors in the entertainment industry. Ross’s offer was a pointed reminder of their long-standing feud, which has seen both artists take shots at each other over the years.

This exchange is just the latest in a series of public spats between the two rappers, whose rivalry has spanned over a decade.
