The feud between rappers Curtis \u201850 Cent\u2019 Jackson and Sean \u2018P Diddy\u2019 Combs is long and well-documented\u00a0 \u2013 partly in thanks to Jackson\u2019s often amusing antics throughout the years. With the release of the 50 Cent-produced documentary on Diddy, The Reckoning<\/a>, interest and commentary (again, led by Jackson) on the rift is renewed.<\/p>\n

Last week, the \u2018Candy Shop\u2019 rapper gave an exclusive interview with ABC News in the U.S. about the new doco and fans were quick to point out that it was a potentially strategic choice.<\/p>\n

\u201c50 Cent agreed to do an interview with ABC news<\/a> station because it\u2019s one of the few stations they\u2019re allowed to watch in prison,\u201d one comment claimed.<\/p>\n

Turns out, they were right with 50 Cent commenting on the post to write: \u201cI thought about it \u2013 what\u2019s wrong with that?\u201d<\/p>\n

However, in the ABC interview, Jackson explained that his actions aren\u2019t because of a \u201cbeef\u201d with Diddy<\/a>, rather exposing his behaviour.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat they consider pre-existing beef for 20 years is me being uncomfortable with him suggesting that he takes me shopping,\u201d Jackson explained, \u201cIt\u2019s not personal.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI think it\u2019s important to also let people know that the show is not completely the perspectives of people that did not like Sean,\u201d director Alex Stapleton added, \u201cWe weren\u2019t trying to just get the highlights, the salacious details. You know that the real goal was to storytell.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Since The Reckoning premiered (and well before) Jackson has been sharing a string of humuous memes and posts on his Instagram. <\/p>\n

50 Cent & P Diddy\u2019s Feud, Explained <\/p>\n

Early 2000s<\/p>\n

In November 2002, 50 Cent and Diddy worked together on a remix of a song by the late The Notorious B.I.G.; during the remix, 50 Cent subtly diss-rapped Diddy.<\/p>\n

By 2003, Diddy presented 50 Cent with the \u201cBest Rap Video\u201d award at the MTV Video Music Awards, indicating they were still publicly on good terms at the time. However, 50 Cent later described their relationship as more professional than friendly, saying he never really \u201cpartied or hung out\u201d with Diddy.<\/p>\n

2005\u20132006<\/p>\n

In August 2005, their beef deepened over business when 50 Cent tried to sign rapper Mase to his G-Unit label after Mase sought to leave Diddy\u2019s label. According to 50 Cent, Diddy made the deal unworkable.<\/p>\n

Then in September 2006, 50 Cent released the diss track \u2018The Bomb\u2019 (also known as \u2018Hip Hop\u2019), in which he insinuated that Diddy had knowledge about The Notorious B.I.G.\u2019s 1997 murder. That marked the moment their rivalry became public and deeply personal.<\/p>\n

Late 2000s\u20132010s<\/p>\n

Despite the diss track, the two sometimes still crossed paths professionally; for instance the 2007 remix, \u2018I Get Money\u2019 along with Jay-Z, which saw all three appear at Screamfest months later, together.<\/p>\n

Business rivalry became a recurring theme for the duo. Diddy was aligned with Ciroc vodka, while 50 Cent later aligned with rival brand Effen Vodka (from 2016). 50 Cent used this rivalry to continue mocking Diddy\u2019s business ventures and singing voice \u2014 arguing, for example, that Ciroc \u201cwasn\u2019t real\u201d vodka.<\/p>\n

Even though tensions remained, there were times when the feud seemed to cool. Notably in 2018, after the death of Diddy\u2019s longtime partner Kim Porter, 50 Cent publicly offered condolences \u2014 a moment that suggested some degree of respect or at least distance.<\/p>\n

In that same year, Diddy publicly downplayed the feud: on a radio show he claimed 50 Cent \u201cloves me,\u201d and invited him to be friends \u2014 though many saw it as more public damage control than genuine reconciliation.<\/p>\n

2023\u20132024<\/p>\n

In November 2023, when news of a lawsuit from former partner Cassie Ventura against Diddy became public, 50 Cent publicly mocked<\/a> the settlement and hinted the drama was \u201cjust beginning.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cFirst, he denied that it even happened, and then the tape comes out \u2014 so that means everything that n\u2014- says is a lie,\u201d 50 Cent told\u00a0The Hollywood Reporter. \u201cWhen someone watches that, if they have a daughter and they can imagine her being under those circumstances, that s\u2014 is crazy. Like, they let him get away with it.\u201d<\/p>\n

After Diddy\u2019s arrest<\/a> in September 2024, 50 Cent announced that he was producing a documentary about Diddy, signalling he wasn\u2019t just trolling, but engaging in a long-term strategy to \u201cexpose\u201d Diddy.<\/p>\n
