50 Cent Break Social Media Silence To Make Shocking Reaction On Nicki Minaj Attack Cardi B’s Daughter Kulture Kiari
50 Cent may have been involved in a number of hip-hop’s most notorious feuds, but surprisingly he’s attempting to play peacemaker between Nicki Minaj and Cardi B.
The long-simmering rivalry between the two female rap stars reignited earlier this week following the release of Cardi’s new album Am I the Drama?, resulting in a heated spat on social media.
Reacting to the messy back-and-forth between his fellow New Yorkers, 50 wrote on Instagram on Thursday (October 2): “I hope the girls stop fighting before things escalate. I read some of the shit they are saying to each other and this is not gonna end well.”
One of Fif’s followers joked in the comments section: “If 50 is the voice reason, you know it’s dun got outta hand [laughing face emoji].”
Nicki Minaj fired the first shots on Monday (September 29) when appeared to mock the discounted price of Cardi B’s Am I the Drama? and dismissively referred to her as “Barney B,” even posting an edited photo of the Bronx rapper as the purple dinosaur.
She also mocked Cardi’s “A-B-C-D-E-F-G” rhyme scheme from “Magnet,” tweeting: “Falling off the charts wit a big belly. RUNNING TRAINS, barefoot, still smellyyyy. Still. you. could. not. outsell. meeeeee.”
Cardi hit back by calling Nicki “Cocaine Barbie” and jabbed her for selling less than her contemporaries such as Drake, Rihanna and Taylor Swift.
From there, the back-and-forth turned increasingly vicious and personal, with both women attacking each other’s families, children, pregnancies, parenting skills and alleged drug use.
Things eventually cooled down by Wednesday (October 1), with Cardi penning a lengthy (and ostensibly sincere) message to Nicki urging her to seek therapy to heal from her childhood trauma and curb her toxic behavior.
“I hope the girls stop fighting before things escalate,” the “Many Men” rapper wrote on his Instagram.
He also referenced the latest round of social media jabs, which took things down a dark path as both ladies focused the attention on each other’s children. That was seemingly even too much for 50 Cent, as he added, “I read some of the sh*t they are saying to each other.”
“This is not gonna end well,” he warned. Read below.
Commenters jokingly found it shocking that 50 out of all people was the one to tell others to stop fighting. “If 50 is the voice reason, you know it’s dun got outta hand,” one top reply read on IG as another person wrote, “Yall got even the messiest rapper of them all saying this is too much.
It’s worth noting that Fif has never picked one lady’s side in regards to this beef throughout the years, and when asked directly to choose, he has avoided giving a definitive answer.
The two NYC rapstresses have been public enemies for years now, but this week has seen the most concentrated amount of direct shots so far. Nicki has mentioned Cardi’s eldest daughter Kulture several times, even referring her to as “ugly” and “Kulture Vulture,” among numerous other insulting remarks. Cardi B fired back by speaking about “Papa Bear,” Nicki’s only son, and made accusations that he “can’t speak” due to his mother allegedly using drugs while pregnant and in his presence.
Last night (Oct. 2), Nicki and Cardi both wrote open letters to each other’s children. The “Super Bass” rapper said Kulture “didn’t deserve this” and apologized, while Cardi denied her “backhanded apology” and fired off another round of personal attacks and even naming the child’s grandfather, father, and uncle’s alleged history of abuse.
