The rapper trolls his longtime rival after over 1,000 bottles of baby oil and lubricant are uncovered during federal investigations.
The rivalry between 50 Centand Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs reached new, eyebrow-raising heights this week as the “In Da Club” rapper took to social media to mock his longtime foe. Following Combs’ recent arrest on serious federal charges, it wasn’t the legal accusations that caught 50’s attention, but rather a bizarre detail from the federal raids on Combs’ properties: the discovery of over 1,000 bottles of baby oil and lubricant.
On Monday, the Bad Boy Records founder was arrested on racketeering and sex trafficking charges in a high-profile bust that sent shockwaves through the entertainment world. As the news broke, federal agents revealed that their March raids on Combs’ homes uncovered a staggering stash of personal lubricants, sparking wild speculation online. Enter 50 Cent, who wasted no time poking fun at his embattled rival.
Fresh from an appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show, 50 Cent shared a picture of himself with the actress on social media. “Here I am keeping good company with @DrewBarrymoreTV,” the rapper captioned the image. But the real jab came when he added, “and I don’t have 1,000 bottles of lube at the house.” The post quickly went viral, adding fuel to the fire of their long-standing feud.
The beef between 50 Cent and Combs has been simmering for years, but this latest development seems to have reignited the flames. The Queens-born rapper, known for his social media trolling, took the opportunity to not only mock Diddy’s legal troubles but also announce his plans to capitalize on the situation. According to 50, a documentary is in the works, tentatively titled Diddy Do It?, promising to dive deep into the allegations.
Combs, who was once at the top of the music industry with hits like “I’ll Be Missing You,” has been facing a slew of accusations since November 2023, when his ex-girlfriend, Cassie Ventura, filed a lawsuit accusing him of sexual assault and physical abuse. Although the case was settled within 24 hours, it opened the floodgates for more accusations, tarnishing Combs’ once-glowing reputation.
Adding to the controversy, a resurfaced 2016 video allegedly showing Combs assaulting Ventura in a hotel room began making rounds on social media, with 50 Cent, never one to miss an opportunity, weighing in. In a sarcastic Instagram post alongside the footage, he wrote, “Now I’m sure Puffy didn’t do it, he is innocent this proves nothing!” His post continued, “This is what his lawyers are gonna say, God help us all.”
50 Cent’s sarcastic swipe at Diddy amid mounting legal troubles: “Maury vibes”
As if the situation weren’t dramatic enough, 50 Cent also took to X, where he posted, “The lie detector test has determined this was a lie… Maury vibes,” clearly referencing the mounting allegations against Combs. Since Ventura’s lawsuit, at least seven others have come forward with similar claims, all of which Combs has vehemently denied.
However, the federal charges Combs now faces are nothing to scoff at. Arrested at the Park Hyatt hotel in New York City on Monday, just hours after being spotted grinning nearby, Combs was charged with racketeering, sex trafficking, and transporting individuals for prostitution. Court documents allege that Combs had been running a criminal enterprise for decades, exploiting and coercing those around him to satisfy his desires while maintaining a façade of power and influence.
In addition to the thousands of bottles of lubricant, federal agents also found firearms, including AR-15s with defaced serial numbers, during their raids. The indictment claims that Combs’ associates used these weapons to intimidate victims and witnesses, heightening the sinister nature of the charges against him.
As the legal battle unfolds, Combs’ lawyer, Marc Agnifilo, has been working to clear his client’s name, calling the arrest “an example of unjust prosecution.” In a statement, Agnifilo acknowledged that Combs”is not a perfect person” but stressed that he “has done nothing illegal.” Urging the public to withhold judgment, he insisted, “These are the acts of an innocent man, and he looks forward to his day in court.”
Despite the serious charges, it seems that for 50 Cent, the drama surrounding Diddy is just another opportunity for a savage joke. But as the legal case builds, it’s clear this feud is far from over.
