50 Cent has reignited his long-standing feud with Diddy following the release of a disturbing video allegedly showing Diddy assaulting his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura in 2016.

The rapper took to X (formerly Twitter) to mock Diddy's claims of innocence, suggesting his lawyers would use the video's lack of audio to defend him.

The video, released by CNN on May 17th, appears to show Diddy grabbing, shoving, dragging, and kicking Cassie in a Los Angeles hotel. Cassie's lawyer, Douglas H. Wigdor, released a statement affirming the video's disturbing nature and commending Cassie's courage in coming forward.

This latest incident further fuels the ongoing feud between 50 Cent and Diddy, which dates back to 2006 when 50 Cent released a diss track accusing Diddy of having knowledge about the murder of The Notorious B.I.G. The two have exchanged jabs on social media over the years, with 50 Cent's attacks intensifying after Cassie filed a lawsuit against Diddy in 2023, alleging physical abuse.

The lawsuit detailed an incident at the InterContinental Hotel, which appears to align with the events depicted in the recently released video. Diddy denied the allegations and settled the lawsuit out of court.

50 Cent's mockery of Diddy's innocence claims comes amid a series of controversies surrounding the music mogul, including a sex trafficking investigation and Homeland Security raids on his homes. 50 Cent has expressed interest in producing a documentary about the scandal, further escalating their feud.

Diddy's lawyer maintains his client's innocence and has stated that he will continue to fight to clear his name. However, the release of the video and 50 Cent's public mockery have undoubtedly intensified the scrutiny surrounding Diddy and his alleged actions.
