Papoose Joins the Feud Between Everybody vs 50 Cent, and the Reason Remains Unclear
On January 1, the hip hop scene is already chaotic as Papoose enters the ongoing drama involving 50 Cent with an AI heels video.
It’s just January 1, and hip hop is already returning to its usual chaos. As many were still recovering from the celebrations of champagne and fireworks, Papoose chose to start the year by involving himself in the ongoing feud between everyone and 50 Cent, leaving the internet pondering the same question. What is the reason?
Papoose shared an AI-generated video on social media featuring 50 Cent dancing in heels, along with a caption challenging him for avoiding confrontation with Maino, Fabolous, and the rest of the Let’s Rap About It podcast team. He doubted if 50 was truly from the southside as he asserts and made a jest about ghostwriting for him while directly labeling him a chump. No restrictions. No record found. Only vibes and visuals.
It is perplexing that Papoose was never involved in the initial matter. The conflict began weeks ago when Maino, Fabolous, Jim Jones, and Dave East openly criticized 50 Cent regarding his involvement in a contentious documentary. The criticism evolved into online jabs, Instagram posts, and ultimately a freestyle in which the podcast crew targeted 50 directly. Curtis reacted in his usual manner, employing insults, humor, and a dismissive attitude, escalating the situation into an extensive exchange on social media.
Papoose was not referenced. He was not tagged. He did not participate in the freestyle. Here he is on the first day of the year, making his presence known in a conflict that already had plenty of participants.
The action seems to prioritize seizing a current trend over adhering to a steadfast principle. Rather than pursuing a career in rap, he opted for the AI meme approach, illustrating precisely how conflicts unfold in 2026. Fewer diss tracks. Increased digital clowning.
The real question is whether 50 Cent will respond or choose to ignore it entirely. Until that moment arrives, Papoose has officially joined the conversation.
