It’s no secret that 50 Cent and his son have a public and strained relationship. And The Game is taking aim at the rapper because of it. Back in 2020, Jackson explained why he and his son are estranged. Apparently, the rapper claims his son is privileged and ungrateful despite all he has been given. Tensions resurfaced earlier this month, when his son, Marquise, offered to pay the rapper $6,700 just to spend time with him. 50 Cent responded with a clip from his show Power where the character Kanan kills his son. The Game, however, added even more fuel to the long-burning dumpster fire.
The Game, real name Jayceon Taylor, took to Instagram to show love to his child, Harlem. However, he first made a post taunting his East Coast rival. He posted an old pic of 50 and his son and captioned it, “like father like…wait, wrong picture. BRB.” He then proceeded to post a picture of his actual child with another shady caption, referencing Suge Knight.
Ahhhh more like it. I love you son, Harlem Taylor. You don’t want your dad playing favorites, leaving you out in the cold, n giving you scraps every month, come to DEATHROW.
The Game And 50’s Longstanding Rap Beef
This isn’t the first time this pair made headlines. For almost 20 years, The Game and 50 Cent hold the title for one of rap’s longest beef. This started in 2005 when the Game was dropped from the rap group, G-Unit. Since then, it’s been nothing but bad blood between the two, inspiring diss track after diss track. Not only has Taylor been beefing with the G-Unit leader, but he also started beef with 50’s longtime friend and peer, Eminem. It was rumored the two buried the hatchet several times, but peace never lasts long among the two.
So far, neither 50 nor his estranged son, Marquis have responded to The Game’s dig on social media. But if previous actions have taught us anything, it’s that none of the individuals involved are afraid to be messy.
