Hip-hop mogul 50 Cent is revisiting his longstanding feud with Rick Ross, insisting their nearly two-decade rivalry is strictly entertainment.
During an October 13 appearance on The Crew Has It podcast, the G-Unit founder discussed his biggest rap beefs.
When Rick Ross entered the conversation, 50 Cent referenced the Miami rapper’s previous employment as a correctional officer.
“I tell you the most difficult beef to have… It’s when the person you’re beefing with is law enforcement,” 50 Cent said.
“You can’t do much. They are sworn in under oath.”
The Power executive producer suggested Ross would involve authorities if their rivalry escalated beyond verbal exchanges.
“When it [gets] hot, they’re just going to tell, bro. Trust me on that one, man,” he continued.
However, 50 Cent acknowledged that his public attacks against Ross primarily serve comedic purposes.
“No, he’s funny [laughter] because it’s like, that’s all entertainment to me,” he explained.
“That part, because it’s a cop to me. Once the person is sworn in, when you serious get into it, then it’s not going to turn into, you know.”

Ross’ correctional officer background has remained a recurring target throughout their feud.
Florida Department of Corrections records confirmed Ross began working as an officer in December 1995.
He served at the South Florida Reception Center before leaving the department in June 1997.
Photographs documenting his correctional officer training also surfaced publicly, sparking criticism surrounding his street-oriented rap persona.
The rivalry intensified in 2009 when 50 Cent publicly introduced Tia Kemp, the mother of Ross’ son.
Kemp was reportedly preparing a memoir detailing her relationship with the Maybach Music Group founder.
Ross retaliated by calling 50 Cent “Curly,” a nickname he claimed originated in the South.
Their feud subsequently expanded through diss tracks, interviews and social media exchanges.
Despite years of personal insults, 50 Cent maintains that mocking Ross remains entertainment rather than a serious confrontation.
