The long-running feud between rap legends Rick Ross and 50 Cent just took off with another highly explosive turn. This was after Ross started the merciless blasting of his archrival on social media. All of this was because 50 Cent’s ex-girlfriend, Jamira “Cuban Link” Haines, was seen hanging out with Travis Scott.
Rick Ross did not hold anything back in this mockery of 50 Cent, diving right into suggesting that he was no longer in control of his personal affairs. The Instagram trolling session had Ross firing shots at past controversies, legal cases, and money problems 50 Cent had been going through. Not stopping there, Ross referenced a classic track by 50 Cent and mocked the sales of his new albums prior to bringing up controversial song lyrics done by 50 Cent way back then to make the distinction of past critique.
It is quite well documented that Rick Ross and 50 Cent have been embroiled in a long-standing beef, regularly exchanging shots at each other across social media over the years. Their exchanges most often contained personal insults and digs aimed at careers. Their recent exchange was no exception and simply an ongoing result of their current animosity toward one another.
Being the defiant type, 50 Cent did not waste any time in responding. He hit back with some of Rick Ross’s very controversial lines from the 2013 track “U.O.E.N.O.,” which had brought a world of trouble to the rapper and cost him his Reebok endorsement deal earlier. 50 Cent posted clips with these lyrics on his social media, reigniting public criticism of Ross’ past statements and actions.
The events around this back-and-forth trolling have again put a spotlight on rather sour competitiveness between the two rappers. Their history is littered with trading barbs at one another, sustaining the public’s interest in who might outrival whom with his biting remarks. Furthermore, the situation between Cuban Link and Travis Scott has added another layer to their multi-layered relationship that is already very full of contention.
