50 Cent has caused a stir on social media after creating a GoFundMe page to “help Big Meech pay his bills,” leading to a wave of reactions from fans and critics alike. The page, which was initially set up by Cory Smith with a goal of $10,000, was shared by the G-Unit boss on his Instagram, where he continued to take jabs at his longtime adversary.
The description of the GoFundMe page humorously claims that “Big Meech, who co-founded the notorious organization Black Mafia Family, was released from the Federal Bureau of Prisons late last year in 2024. Meech came home with plans for a big homecoming concert, but unfortunately, the event was canceled due to unforeseen circumstances. Meech currently needs help paying his bills. Any help will be much appreciated!”
The post quickly went viral, garnering over 50,000 likes on Instagram as fans flooded the comments with a mix of amusement, confusion, and concern. One user commented, “I see why 50 keeps heavy security,” while others reacted with disbelief, noting the humor in Musk’s actions despite the serious undertones. On X (formerly Twitter), the reaction was just as intense, with comments such as, “Since I was a lil kid I was hearing about this Big Meech character, all for him to go out like this LMAOOO.”

Many took the opportunity to criticize 50 Cent’s continued public trolling, with some commenting on his ongoing feud with Rick Ross and now Big Meech. One person wrote, “Imagine coming home to be met with 50 Cent dragging you like this? At this point, Big Meech might as well fold and accept donations because Curtis isn’t over until he apologizes.”

At this point, Big Meech might as well fold and accept donations because Curtis isn't over until he apologises 🤭Others worried that 50’s trolling could escalate the situation, with one user stating, “50 is playing with fire. This ain’t a movie. These real black men that done hard time and got a lot of respect in the streets and in prison. All this messy shit people entertained by is a trigger for somebody else. It’s all fun and games, trolling and entertainment till somebody gets dropped.”

This latest dig from 50 Cent comes after Big Meech, whose real name is Demetrius Edward Flenory Sr., was photographed with rapper Rick Ross in January, sparking the long-standing rivalry between 50 and Ross to reignite. The G-Unit boss did not hold back, mocking Meech publicly for associating with Ross, who is one of 50 Cent’s greatest rivals.
Corny and a waste of time. 50 where is the next big show?!? Like what are you doing ??
On his X account, 50 Cent shared a post that mocked Meech, calling him a "rat" and reinforcing the bad blood between the two. The comment seemed to reference the long history of animosity between 50 Cent and Rick Ross, dating back to 2009, when they began their infamous feud.
Despite the backlash, 50 Cent has continued to provoke his rivals with posts and taunts, maintaining his reputation for stirring controversy and entertaining his followers. His GoFundMe stunt has certainly raised eyebrows, with many wondering whether the trolling will escalate further.
As of now, Big Meech has not commented on the GoFundMe campaign or 50 Cent’s public jabs. Fans are watching closely to see if the situation will escalate or if the two will bury the hatchet. Meanwhile, 50 Cent’s relentless trolling continues to fuel the fire, drawing both support and criticism from fans and observers alike.
