50 Cent Fires Back At Fabolous, Jim Jones, Maino And Dave East

50 Cent has never been shy about sparring with people online, but as the year winds down, it looks like he may be easing up on the chaos. Even so, a recent post from the rapper raised eyebrows. The message itself was cryptic, framed as a warning for anyone he might go at next, but plenty of readers took it as a subtle shot at Fabolous, Maino, Jim Jones, and Dave East.

For anyone who missed it, the hosts of the Let’s Rap About It podcast released a new freestyle this week that many listeners felt was aimed squarely at the G Unit boss. They rapped over his beats, dropped references to him throughout their verses, and even titled the track “Squatter’s Rights,” a playful nod to the accusations 50 Cent has previously thrown their way.

In a fresh social media post shared with his followers, Fif hinted that he has no interest in feeding negativity as 2025 comes to a close and 2026 approaches. Still, his words suggested that calm might only be temporary.

“Let’s toast to success, health, and prosperity. I’m planning my new year. When I’m done, I’ll come out to play. You know everyone who plays with me wishes they didn’t in the end,” he wrote. The image paired with the caption shows the Queens rapper edited into Leonardo DiCaprio’s role in The Great Gatsby, using the now famous party toast scene.

That said, it is worth not reading too deeply into it. While some see the post as a coded message, it could just as easily be 50 Cent doing what he often does best, poking fun at critics without singling anyone out directly.

In the past, his ongoing tension with these artists has arguably worked in everyone’s favor, or at least that is how Maino once framed it, calling the situation smart business. Dave East, Jim Jones, and Fabolous all have their own complicated histories with him, each at different stages, which makes the situation hard to pin down.

For now, it remains to be seen whether 50 Cent will respond more directly or if the Let’s Rap About It crew will fire off another verse before hearing back. Chances are this all stays confined to social media rather than turning into anything that reaches the studio.
