Ja Rule has some more words for 50 Cent amid their latest back-and-forth over the NBA Semifinals.
Over the weekend, Fif joined the chorus of New York Knicks fans angry at the Murder Inc. founder for allegedly cursing the NBA team. Ja had lifted the Larry O’Brien trophy before the Knicks had won it, which is considered bad luck – and then they coincidentally didn’t win their next game against the Indiana Pacers.

After winning game four and then game five, however, Ja had a reply for 50 – who had said he would bet on the Minnesota Timberwolves amid the alleged “curse.”
“The Wolves haven’t won since this tweet!!! 50 you fucking MUSH Ant man stay away from this goofy he a fed anyway… [laughing emoji] Stream Mama on all platforms NOW!!!”

Previously, the G-Unit boss attempted to lift the alleged Timberwolves curse by posting a video of himself walking through the Timberwolves locker room facility at the Target Center to give fans an inside look at the team and the front office staff.
Toward the end of the clip, 50 Cent took a shot at his longtime rival by promising to lift the curse Ja Rule put on the team four years ago.

“We had a curse! Somebody fucked up, and they let Ja Rule perform at halftime,” 50 joked while meeting and greeting people in the team’s office space. “Now, what we’re gonna do is take the curse off!”
The New York Knicks are currently up 3 wins to the Pacers’ 2 wins and could advance to the Conference Finals if they take home the W in the next game on Friday (May 17).

The long-suffering team hasn’t won an NBA championship since 1973 but has enjoyed a successful run in this year’s playoffs having previously beaten the Philadelphia 76ers.
For his part, Ja Rule is no stranger to NBA curses. In 2019, he said he was placing a curse on both the Minnesota Timberwolves and Sacramento Kings after a disastrous halftime performance was widely mocked by fans.
“You just jinx yourself talking to the GOD this way… your CURSED NOW!!!” he wrote on X (then Twitter) in response to one critic. “You won’t win a championship for the next 30 years… AND KAT IS LEAVING!!! Apologise and I’ll lift the CURSE!!! Kiss of death.”
After the Kings’ social media admin joked: “Where is Ja?,” the rapper directed his powers at that team as well: “Shout out to the base God… @LILBTHEBASEDGOD I’ve channeled my curse powers from him… @SacramentoKings WILL NEVER WIN A CHAMPIONSHIP EVER.”
