50 Cent recently broke his usual silence on Lloyd Banks with some harsh words. This latest 50 Cent news shows the rapper targeting his former G-Unit artist, along with Fabolous. He posted on X, formerly Twitter, reacting to a debate on The Breakfast Club. The deleted post discussed both rappers’ recent career output.

What Happened

50 Cent took to X to share his thoughts on Lloyd Banks and Fabolous. He wrote, “Fab vs. Banks 👀 they both write better when it’s about girls, they both think they are better than everybody. They both never put in no work themselves. They both are not likely to sell at this point in their career. IT’S A TIE LADIES & GENTLEMAN they are the same.” This comment followed a debate between Tony Yayo and Uncle Murda on The Breakfast Club. The debate centered on who was the better artist between Fabolous and Banks. 50 Cent’s public comments on Lloyd Banks were unusual, as reported by AllHipHop.

Background on G-Unit Beef

For years, 50 Cent has had public feuds with other former associates like Young Buck and The Game. Young Buck was reportedly kicked out of G-Unit in 2008. The Game faced a similar situation in 2005. However, Lloyd Banks had largely been kept out of these public disputes until now. In a 2022 interview with GQ, Banks stated that his relationship with 50 Cent remained solid. He said, “It’s the same. We’re brothers. We came into this together, we’re never all going to be doing the same thing at the same time at this point in our careers.”

The Timing of the Diss

The timing of 50 Cent’s remarks seemed to be connected to recent events. Fabolous dropped a freestyle called “Squatter’s Rights” in December. That track included direct shots aimed at 50 Cent. This came after previous comments 50 Cent made regarding the “Let’s Rap About It” podcast crew. Many fans expected Fabolous’s diss to go unanswered. However, 50 Cent’s recent post proved those predictions wrong. He has been focused on his TV ventures and other business interests lately.

Fan and Artist Reaction

The deleted post generated quick reactions on social media. Some fans debated whether 50 Cent crossed a line by grouping Banks with Fabolous. Others felt his comments were an honest take on the rappers’ current output. As of now, Lloyd Banks has not publicly responded to 50 Cent’s comments. His last major project, HHVI THE SIX OF SWORDS, was released in October 2025. The project received positive reviews from his dedicated fanbase. 50 Cent’s pattern of publicly criticizing former associates is well-documented
