50 Cent has brought out Fat Joe during the Brooklyn stop on his Final Lap Tour, and the once fierce foes ran through a few of Joey Crackâs hits together.
50 Cent welcomed Fat Joe on stage while performing at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn on Thursday (August 9) for the first of two shows at the arena on his Final Lap Tour.

The pair dapped each other up before Joe dove into performances of âLean Backâ and âAll The Way Up,â with 50 serving as his hype man the whole time.
Later in the night, the G-Unit leader also brought out Young MA to perform her smash âOoouuu!â

Once fierce rivals, Fat Joe and 50 Cent put their dislike for each other on wax with numerous diss tracks aimed at each other in the early 2000s. The pairâs beef was inherited from 50âs bitter feud with Ja Rule, who the Terror Squad leader collaborated with on 2002âs âWhatâs Luv?â and 2004âs âNew Yorkâ alongside Jadakiss.
Things then hit a boiling point at the 2005 MTV Video Music Awards, where Joe and 50 Cent exchanged shots in full view of the audience. Joe threw the first jab by thanking G-Unit for the heavy âpolice protectionâ inside Miamiâs American Airlines Arena while presenting Missy Elliott with the award for Best Hip Hop Video. Joey Crack later recalled G-Unit members confronting him and Terror Squad as they left the arena, but police were able to separate the two crews and avoid a fight breaking out.

The pair eventually buried the hatchet at the 2012 BET Hip Hop Awards, with the tragic death of their mutual friend, music executive Chris Lighty, inspiring a peace treaty between the rap rivals.
50 Cent had previously brought out J. Cole during his Wednesday (August 9) show to perform âNo Role Modelz,â and before exiting the stage, Cole took a moment to crown Get Rich or Die Tryinâ the greatest album of all time, while putting Michael Jacksonâs best-selling Thriller just behind.

âCan I say this before I move off stage?â he began. âIf yâall donât make some noise for one of the greatest n-ggas to ever do this shit. 50 muthafuckinâ Cent, Curtis Jackson. Get Rich or Die Tryinâ the best album of all time. I donât give a fuck what you talking about, n-gga!
âItâs Get Rich or Die Tryinâ at No. 1 and itâs Thriller at No. 2, and I love Michael Jackson. But I promise yâall that, Curtis Jackson, 50 Cent, we love you my n-gga, for real.â

In addition to J. Cole, 50 also brought out Jadakiss, DaBaby, Moneybagg Yo, A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie, Yung Bleu, Flo Rida, Tony Yayo and Uncle Murda during the show.
50 Centâs sprawling, 64-date tour kicked off July 21 in Salt Lake City, Utah and will journey across North America until September 17, making stops in cities such as Toronto, Atlanta, Houston, Los Angeles, Chicago and Detroit.
