Making fun of what happened to Rick Ross, 50 Cent told the audience during his concert:
“Can’t believe what y’all did to Rick Ross. You f***ed him up.”
The rapper also pretended to spot Rick’s attacker in the crowd, asking if the random man had done it. Additionally, the rapper questioned, “Who said Canada was soft.”
Both rappers have been engaged in a feud since the late 2000s when the beef started at a BET event. Since then, the two have tried to get back at one another via public comments, diss tracks, or collaborating with each other’s rivals.
“My guess is ya, won’t be going back to Canada”— 50 Cent takes a dig at Rick Ross in an Instagram video
The alleged altercation involving Rick Ross took place on June 30, 2024, wherein Rick ended his set by playing Kendrick Lamar’s Not Like Us, which didn’t sit well with some people from the audience. After Rick Ross got off the stage, he was surrounded by a group of people, one of whom allegedly threw a punch at the rapper.
According to Yahoo Entertainment, one of the videos from the brawl showcased an unresponsive man lying on the ground. However, Rick Ross later told TMZ that nobody from his team “suffered any serious injuries.” He also posted an Instagram Story that said:
“Vancouver it was fun, till next time.”
The alleged physical altercation in which Rick Ross was involved was mocked by 50 Cent on multiple occasions. The In da Club rapper took to Instagram on July 1, 2024, posting a video of Rick Ross escaping the altercation, captioning it “the great escape.”
Additionally, he posted a video of Rick’s ex-wife, Tia Kemp, trolling him on the Vancouver incident. In the video, Tia Kemp is seen playing a video of Rick Ross from the concert, saying she is glad he got smacked. Posting Tia’s video on Instagram, 50 Cent captioned the post:
“my guess is ya, won’t be going back to Canada 🇨🇦 acting like it ain’t what it is. LOL”
Rick Ross and 50 Cent also engaged in a war of words in May 2024. On May 24, 2024, the latter posted an artwork of R. Kelly alongside Jeffery Epstein and Diddy with Rick’s U.O.E.N.O playing in the background.
In the song, Rick Ross’ lyrics talk about spiking a woman’s champagne with molly and indulging in nonconsensual physical activity with her. 50 Cent hinted at Rick’s problematic lyric in the caption of his post and mentioned:
“You know some times I think people are just stupid, why would you say this in song?”
While the Many Men rapper has addressed Rick Ross’s alleged physical altercation in Vancouver over social media and during his concert, Rick hasn’t responded yet.
