Charlamagne Tha God is standing on his description of 50 Cent as a diabolical genius, despite criticisms from Rick Ross.
After the famed radio host’s praise of Fif on an episode of the Brilliant Idiots podcast that aired on Friday (December 1), Rozay responded with an Instagram Live claiming that Charlamagne had it all wrong.

But on an episode of The Breakfast Club on Wednesday (December 6), the host explained that he wasn’t backing down from his stance.
“I stand by what I said. 50 Cent is absolutely a diabolical genius,” Charlamagne began. “If you look up the word diabolical and the definition of diabolical genius, then you know that is exactly what 50 Cent is. [Diabolical means] very evil but often intelligent. But most Cancers are that. We’re very sweet, very loving and we care about our people, but we do hate as hard as we love. So leave us alone.”

He continued: “Now I will say too, Rick Ross is a mastermind as well. He’s a master marketer. And you know why? Because every video he posts, he’s promoting something. So even in that video, he’s promoting Belaire. And 50 does that too, by the way. Because if you gon’ go viral, add some value to it. So I respect both those brothers. They all have different levels of genius. And I wish everybody could just play nice. That’s what I wish.”

During his Instagram Live on Tuesday (December 5), Rick Ross revisited some of 50 Cent’s questionable business moves, snarking that a diabolical genius “doesn’t file foreclosure, doesn’t file bankruptcy,” then turned his wrath onto Charlamagne.
“Crackin’ jokes on somebody don’t make you diabolical,” he continued. “That shit ain’t diabolical. N-gga just havin’ a little fun. Get to the money! Gettin’ money make you diabolical. That’s what make you diabolical, Charlamagne. Stop dickridin’!”

Ross’ shots definitely poked the bear, and the next day, 50 pulled two of his feuds together by taking aim at the MMG rapper while continuing to target Diddy over his sexual assault allegations.
In recent weeks, 50 has repeatedly trolled and taunted Puff over his mounting sexual assault lawsuits, all of which he has vehemently denied.
Now, the G-Unit general has dragged Rozay into the conflict by rehashing one of the Maybach Music Group boss’ most controversial lyrics.
In an Instagram post on Wednesday (December 6) which he captioned: “WTF at some point you gotta just do the right thing,” 50 posted a screenshot of some of Ross’ lyrics from the song “U.O.E.N.O.”
The lyric in question is: “Put molly all in her champagne, she ain’t even know it/ I took her home and I enjoyed that, she ain’t even know it,” which has previously been criticized for allegedly promoting rape.

When the song was first released in 2013, it led to Reebok dropping Rick Ross from an endorsement deal. The rapper later apologized and said he didn’t “condone” rape.
50 also posted a picture of Rozay and Diddy together, with the two having collaborated together multiple times.
It marks another escalation in 50 Cent’s bitter feud with Rick Ross, who he has been beefing with on-and-off since 2009.
