50 Cent opens up about Diddy's awkward shopping request and their years-long feud

50 Cent recently opened up about his experience with Diddy.

50 Cent recently shared details about his experience with Diddy, including an incident where Diddy suggested they go shopping together. Speaking on Andrew Schulz’s podcast Flagrant on December 16, 2024, 50 Cent engaged in a humorous conversation with the host and other guests.  

At the start of the discussion, Andrew asked 50 Cent about his dynamic with Diddy, to which the rapper responded: "The last thing I saw was like a guy there he was like yo he pushed me into a truck. It really hurt. I was like yo look I can find other things to do."  

Later in the podcast, Andrew asked 50 Cent how he responded to Diddy’s invitation to go shopping. The rapper explained that he tried to distance himself from the situation and said: "We gotta hang out now like do know like hang out hey y'all. So I don't know man, I take you shop and just flash you. Can give me the hush and I was looking in and I was like, let me just move away from him because I'm a mess up to win."  

50 Cent also shared that the shopping request occurred during the time record executive Chris Lighty was getting married. He added: "Certain things they let it go by because it's Puff, like they would look like he would say stuff and just like, he wasn't in the closet, he was in the hallway."  

In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter in August, 50 Cent discussed the same shopping incident, describing it as a strange experience. 

He stated: "I'm just like, 'Naw, I'm not f*cking with this weird energy or weird sh*t,' coming off the way he was just moving. From that, I wasn't comfortable around him."  

50 Cent clarified that he and Diddy were not friends, emphasizing that their relationship was strictly business. He added that neither of them would be upset if they stopped communicating entirely.  

Reportedly, 50 Cent and Diddy have had ongoing issues over the years. According to Cosmopolitan magazine, their feud began in 2006 when Diddy refused to release Mase from his contract with Bad Boy Records, preventing Mase from joining 50 Cent’s G-Unit label.
