A simmering rivalry between 50 Cent and Jim Jones resurfaced this week after social media posts suggested Jones had lost access to his podcast studio. The episode began circulating widely after 50 Cent shared a message referencing an alleged lockout. He also mentioned what he characterized as property damage. In one caption, he wrote, “Sam is my partner I own the joint, now your gonna fix every door you kick or I’m gonna kick ya a*s jimmy. [thinking emoji] by Monday, your destroying my property.” The image accompanying the post appeared stylized. However, its authenticity was not independently confirmed.
Clips that followed seemed to show Jones attempting to enter a studio space tied to his show, Let’s Rap About It. In one video, he can be heard saying, “the f*ck is you talking about,” as a door lock is broken. Screenshots of a notice terminating tenancy under the name Joseph Jones, his legal name, also circulated online. The document indicated the possibility of negotiating with the landlord. However, the precise terms of any lease agreement have not been publicly verified.
Feud Turns Into a Viral Spectacle
50 Cent continued to comment on the situation, adding a note of sarcasm. “Damn bro this wouldn’t happen if we was friends, wanna be friends? I don’t know let’s rap about it! LOL,” he wrote. In a subsequent post, he shared what he described as a phone call with the property owner. The owner alleged that unpaid rent ranged from $80,000 to $180,000. Those figures have not been independently confirmed.
Jones responded with humor rather than direct rebuttal. Posting a brief video, he captioned it, “Kunfu Jim. No lock doors lol,” appearing to treat the episode as spectacle rather than crisis. The exchange underscores how longstanding tensions between the two artists now unfold largely through social media posts and viral clips. In this context, performance and provocation often blur with real-world disputes.
