T.I. is firing back at 50 Cent with serious accusations, escalating their public war of words. The Atlanta rapper claimed he has paperwork proving the G-Unit boss cooperated with federal authorities. This cent news comes after their Verzuz battle challenge turned personal, with both artists trading insults on social media. T.I. even called 50 Cent a “rat in real life.”
Feud Over Verzuz Battle
The conflict began when T.I. appeared on Shannon Sharpe’s Nightcap Live show. He challenged 50 Cent to a Verzuz battle, stating the New York rapper “don’t want no smoke.” 50 Cent responded by sharing videos of T.I. testifying in court. These clips were from the murder trial of Hosea Thomas, who killed T.I.’s friend in 2006.
50 Cent also posted T.I.’s old Crime Stoppers commercial from 2008. This ad was part of T.I.’s community service from his 2007 federal gun case. The G-Unit founder wrote, “No verses let’s do (The stay away challenge) and stay away from me.”
T.I.’s Accusations Surface
T.I. then posted a direct message to 50 Cent on social media. He accused the G-Unit boss of being a police informant. T.I. stated, “@50cent You playing on MY NAME when Only 1 of us a rat in real life…you know I got your paperwork right?” He added, “And my transcript is available online. Your Excuses is useless. Get yo ho ass in the box or S and live in fear. You soft son. You’ve Lost my respect.”
Background of Allegations
These cent news accusations reference long-standing rumors about 50 Cent snitching on Kenneth “Supreme” McGriff in the early 2000s. Some fans claimed 50 Cent worked with police after he was shot nine times in 2000. These theories were mainly pushed by Irv Gotti and Ja Rule. However, no concrete evidence has surfaced to prove these claims. 50 Cent has always denied being a police informant.
Both rappers have built successful careers in Hip-Hop for over two decades. T.I. dominated the South with hits like “What You Know” and “Live Your Life.” 50 Cent made his mark with massive hits like “In Da Club” and “I Get Money.” T.I. now claims he has the paperwork to back up his allegations, as reported by AllHipHop
