50 Cent has social media buzzing again with his latest target, legendary rapper Lil Kim.
On Feb. 16, the TV/Film mogul shared an Instagram clip of the Queen Bee rocking the stage in Los Angeles during a Pass The Mic set curated by DJ Cassidy. The Brooklyn legend, 51, dipped low to the floor mid-performance, then slowly rose as the crowd cheered. The moment showcased the Queen Bee’s confidence and command, decades into her career.
Instead of saluting the energy, 50 flipped the clip into a punchline. The caption would bring back a long-standing beef between the two former collaborators.
“LOL 😆😆 the knees are the first thing to go, when 304’s get old LOL @50centaction,” he wrote in the caption.
The line immediately sparked reactions across hip-hop timelines. The “knees” comment reads as a jab at Kim’s age, suggesting physical decline. In rap culture, youth and stamina often dominate the conversation. By spotlighting her movement, 50 reframed a crowd-pleasing moment as an age joke.
50 Cent Makes Jokes About Rapper Lil Kim’s Old Age In New Instagram Post
The second part of the caption raised more eyebrows. “304” is slang that reverses the spelling of “hoe,” a coded insult used online and in street vernacular. Labeling Kim that way shifts the focus from her legacy to an old stereotype tied to sexuality and reputation.
The post carries extra weight given their shared history. The pair famously teamed up on the 2003 hit “Magic Stick,” a Billboard-charting collaboration that remains a staple of early-2000s rap radio. That context made the jab feel less random and more pointed to some fans.
Reactions split quickly. Some followers framed it as typical 50 Cent trolling, consistent with his long-running social media antics. Others viewed it as unnecessary shade directed at a pioneering female MC who helped shape hardcore rap.
Neither artist has issued further statements. Still, the moment highlights how quickly Instagram humor can morph into headline controversy—especially when hip-hop royalty is involved.
