Since The Kanan Tape in 2015, following his 2014 studio album Animal Ambition, 50 Cent has largely stayed out of the music spotlight. Yet recent activity on social media and ongoing rap rivalries suggest he may be preparing a return. On Friday, March 13, the G-Unit mogul released an untitled track on Instagram—a reworked version of his 2012 song “Business Mind” featuring Earl Hayes from his 5 (Murder By Numbers) mixtape. Alongside the clip, he hinted at a possible album titled The Algorithm: “Music untitled, I’d Fvck these [ninja emoji] up if they jump me in real life. a bunch of punks. THE ALGORITHM is coming!”
While the post does not confirm a full-length album, 50 Cent has invoked The Algorithm in several recent updates, leaving fans to speculate whether it represents a project or a thematic nod to his ongoing rap conflicts. Shortly before releasing the untitled track, he posted a message mocking rivals T.I., Fabolous, and Papoose. So far, the only official diss from Fif’s camp remains “No One Told Us What We’re Here For,” featuring Leon Thomas and serving as the theme for Power: Origins. That track addressed T.I. and his family amid their ongoing disputes, stemming from an alleged Verzuz confrontation that 50 reportedly avoided.
50 Cent’s Feuds Fuel His Next Move
Beyond these battles, 50 Cent has also taken aim at Papoose and his partner Claressa Shields, as well as the Let’s Rap About It podcast, Dame Dash, Floyd Mayweather, Diddy, and several other figures in the industry. With so much tension, The Algorithm—if it develops into a full album—could draw heavily from these real-world feuds.
For now, fans should remain cautious. What 50 Cent has shared may be more a reflection of his ongoing rivalries than a traditional album rollout, yet it signals that the rap veteran is still very much in the conversation, both on social media and in the culture.
