50 Cent has been accused of betraying Kendrick Lamar after linking up with Drake and teasing a collaboration with the Canadian superstar.
The G-Unit boss, who worked with Kendrick on the 2013 track “We Up” and shares a number of mutual friends with him including Dr. Dre and Eminem, was largely criticized for kicking it with Drizzy in Toronto over the weekend.
Posting a picture of the two of them on Instagram, 50 wrote: “Brain [brain emoji] storming last night me and @champagnepapi gonna get the [camera emoji] rolling biggest ting on your TV GLG.”
The comment suggests that their collaboration will be more likely a film or TV show than a musical project, especially given both men are now prolific producers of movies and television series.
Another social media post showed 50 and Drake also hanging out with Canadian rappers Pressa (who was booked to support the Queens, New York native on his recent tour) and Bundog.
50 Cent aligning himself with Drake amid his bitter feud with Kendrick Lamar angered fans of the Compton rapper, with one commenting: “Dang, Fif! You sided against K-DOT?! Nah. Bruh.”
Another said: “Nah 50 he ain’t it. That’s Kendrick’s Ja Rule,” while someone else highlighted their shared ties to Dre’s Aftermath label: “This might be the first 50 cent L ever. How you side with dude who lost and dude who won is aftermath? Smh. Bad look.”
A fourth critic accused 50 of being a hypocrite given his own history of attacking those who sided with his rivals: “This weird as hell to me because if you fraternize with the enemy 50 cutting you loose. This applied to his own son as well.
“But Kendrick cool with Dre who cool with Eminem who just so happens to be 50 main man yet here he is Green lighting shit with Drake. Practice what you preach n-gga.”
Others defended 50 Cent, with one user pointing out that 50 and Drake share a common enemy: “They both dislike Rick Ross. But I know 50 has nothing against Kendrick. They’re cool.”
Another said: “50 is untouchable in the industry he does what he wants I respect it.”
50 Cent has previously offered his opinion on the beef between Drake and Kendrick Lamar, praising both rappers at different times.
He initially applauded Drizzy’s “Push Ups” diss song, which contained shots at not only K. Dot but Rick Ross, Future, Metro Boomin and The Weeknd.
“All you [ninja emoji]’s got smoked by a light skinned Ni66a,” he wrote on Instagram. “LOL YALL BETTER GET HIGH AS A MOTHER FVCKER AND COME UP WITH SOMETHING!”
When Kendrick responded over a week later with “Euphoria,” Fif was equally as complimentary, writing: “This is real hip hop shit go check it out, I would have posted it but it’s too long.”
Drake has made several references to 50 Cent throughout the beef, such as featuring a G-Unit spinner chain in the video for “Family Matters” and including DJ Whoo Kid‘s mixtape tag at the beginning of “Push Ups.”
Last week, he also posed in Eminem’s iconic “Free Yayo” shirt in an apparent dig at Kendrick’s former TDE labelmate ScHoolboy Q, who had suggested that the feud was the reason behind his Toronto concert being canceled.
Eminem is not the greatest rapper he is a good emcee but sometimes his music is boring. I don’t want to hear about Hailee, or Kim or his mom etc…his lyrics more shock value and his rap beefs were wack, nick cannon, Christia Aguilera, Mariah Carrey, mobey, benzino etc. Has he ever dissed somebody relevant in hip hop ? Way overrated. Lyrically and battle wise he is great which is really the only time I listen to his music. Em stans get super upset trying to convince everyone he the best of all-time he is not top 5 of all time that goes to 2pac, biggie, DMX, Nas, lil Wayne, scarface, Big Pun or Big L, jay z, ice cube, andre 3000, etc
The issue with Em today is he doesn’t make good sounding music. Talented as hell? Definitely. But somewhere along the way he started making rappity rap rap, and stopped making great songs that were sonicly pleasing. There’s a reason early Em transcended genres for fans. Now, only em fans listen to em. Nobody outside of that group plays his music. With that said, I can’t name any rap artist that didn’t sound 5x better in their prime, and can’t name one that made it to top 5 and stayed the course forever. They have primes, and pass them up.
Why the fuck are you 2 idiots even talking about Eminem? Literally has nothing to do with this article. He’s mentioned in it once. You are both criticizing him but clearly he stays on your mind big time. You hear anything about rap and you immediately start thinking and talking about Eminem. Suspect to say the least. Both yall cornballs. Pussys.
It’s because he’s copy/pasting this comment and literally posting it on almost every article that mentions Em LMAO!

50 and Kendrick aren’t label mates. Snoop being cool with biggie was more of a betrayal considering Pac b Snoop were label mates, and the label heads were competing against one another. It isn’t disloyal to make music with people. It’s just music. The whole beef was just musical beef.
Snoop is a two faced bitch who’s switches sides more than entire NFL season. He’s loyal to no one
