50 Cent has taken issue with Jason Derulo defending Diddy amid his legal troubles, issuing a stern to the crooner.
The “Whatcha Say” singer was asked by TMZ on Tuesdsay (April 9) if he believes that the embattled Bad Boy boss deserves to be viewed as “innocent until proven guilty” over his sexual assault and sex trafficking allegations.
Derulo, who began his career writing songs for Diddy among others, briefly replied: “I believe in that. I believe in innocent before proven guilty.”
He was then ushered into a Sprinter van before the reporter could ask any further questions.
50 Cent, who has been relentlessly taunting Diddy since he was first accused of sexual assault by ex-girlfriend Cassie in November, caught wind of Derulo’s comments and had a few choice words for the singer.
Posting a screenshot on Instagram of TMZ‘s headline, “Jason Derulo Says Diddy Is Innocent Until Proven Guilty Amid Federal Drama,” he wrote: “Shut the fuck up ! let me find out you on one of them tapes boy.”
His caption referenced producer Lil Rod’s claim that Puff has hidden camera footage of “several celebrities, artists, music label executives and athletes engaging in illegal activity” at his parties.
Surveillance footage was reportedly seized during the recent Homeland Security raids on the mogul’s properties, although authorities have yet to disclose its contents.
Jason Derulo has his own history of relying on the presumption of innocence.
In October 2023, the 34-year-old responded to a sexual harassment lawsuit filed by aspiring singer Emaza Gibson and claimed that there was no merit to the allegations.
In her lawsuit, Gibson accused Derulo of promising her a record deal if he slept with her, only for him to renege on the deal when she rejected his advances.
She also said he tried to give her cocaine and alcohol before the arrangement and tried to lure her into partaking in a goat sacrifice in an attempt to intimidate her.
“[Jason Derulo] not only broke promises and breached contracts, but his threats of physical harm and unconscionable sexual advances toward this young woman who is just trying to break into the industry were outrageous and illegal,” said Ron Zambrano, Gibson’s attorney.
Derulo responded in a video posted on Instagram, calling the allegations “false and hurtful.”
“I wouldn’t normally comment but these claims are completely false and hurtful,” he said. “I stand against all forms of harassment and I remain supportive of anybody following their dreams.
“I’ve always strived to live my life in a positively impactful way, and that’s why I sit here before you deeply offended, by these defamatory claims. God bless.”
In addition to the allegations of quid pro quo sexual harassment — where she alleged that she was only promised a record deal if she slept with Derulo, who then reneged on the deal when she rejected his advances — Gibson alleged that he tried to give her cocaine and alcohol to sweeten the proverbial deal. She also alleged that Derulo wanted her to engage in a goat sacrifice prior to having sex with her, in an effort to further intimidate her.
“[Jason Derulo] not only broke promises and breached contracts, but his threats of physical harm and unconscionable sexual advances toward this young woman who is just trying to break into the industry were outrageous and illegal,” said Ron Zambrano, Gibson’s attorney.
“How could you be a person and do this to somebody?” Gibson said. “Like, why? Why? I’ve been doing this all my life. This is something I’ve wanted to do as a little girl. And you don’t have to bend your morals to get to certain places.”
Christ when did derulo put out an album
Maybe just use your inside voice if you don’t know what your talking about, album dropped in Feb and is already gold
I’m really starting to question 50 cent’s Motives in going so hard against Diddy . What did Diddy really do to 50 cent? Cause this man feelings is really hurt . I understood his beef with jarule but this looking suspect.
It’s old beef. Fifty has been around since 1999 when he was trying to get a deal and used to deal with Stevie J and the Trackmasters. Matter of fact, Puffy got him taken off of a J-Lo Trackmasters remix back in the Columbia days when he was on the come-up and replaced with Nas. Some of you act like you don’t see how Puffy has moved and treated people. Fifty got on with Aftermath and just has been giving it back ever since. He didn’t forget.
is that why 50 had Diddy on the “I get money remix”? 50 is spitefull of anyone that can say they are better than him. Diddy has more money and he can’t accept it. Jay-Z is another person he goes after. Jay has more money and is considered a better rapper, so he feels a need to discredit him. He’s a petty dude.
How do you know he had anything to do with that. Dre and Jimmy were fucking with Puffy back then, and they would have controlled who got on that record. However, 50 has clearly had disdain for him since he came up. He’s the only person from NY who had called a spade a spade. Don’t act like this shit is new.
Another instance was getting the song shelved that used the beat on that Monica song that 50 wanted to use as a single. There were a bunch of instances back in the early 2000s of Puffy shitting on him, and 50 didn’t forget. He and Jay have never fucked with each other for the most part. Different generations, different boroughs. Some of you think everybody got to fuck with everybody. He’s had personal beef wih how Nas moves from some shit he said he did in the past, but they have way more in common since they’re both from Queens, and he’s always bigged him up. He doesn’t fuck with those other dudes. Puff was also heavily affiliated with Preme and Murder Inc. Don’t act like you don’t remember.
Everything you mentioned had to do with business … what did puffy PERSONALLY do to 50 ? 50 acting like the beef is personal right now . Puffy being a snake business wise is different than some street shit . His jarule beef was personal so I get why he still going at him and I love it … but this puffy shit seem like something else .
Jason smashed Daphne Joy 💀💀💀💀
