The long-standing feud between Ja Rule and 50 Cent has reignited following recent events. In a candid interview on The Breakfast Club, Ja Rule expressed his anger over 50 Cent’s mocking of the late Irv Gotti, a close friend and collaborator. 50 Cent had previously posted a photo of himself beside a fake tombstone with the caption, “I’m smoking on dat Gotti pack… Nah God bless him LOL,” which Ja Rule found deeply disrespectful.

Ja Rule admitted that he was “ready to go nuclear” over the post but was advised by DJ Premier to exercise restraint. Despite this, 50 Cent continued to taunt Ja Rule on social media, prompting Ja Rule to respond on X (formerly Twitter), calling 50 Cent a “used car salesman” and criticizing his music, liquor, and television ventures.   

This exchange has brought their decades-old rivalry back into the spotlight, reminding fans of the intense animosity that has characterized their relationship over the years.
