50 Cent shared a video generated by artificial intelligence Jay-Z and Sean “Diddy” Combs to be arrested.
Taking to Instagram late Tuesday, December 10, 50 Cent (real name Curtis Jackson), posted the deepfake and wrote: “I want to post this but I’m afraid I’ll get shot.” LOL 😆.”
A fictional video, which the rapper uploaded to the song “Sound of Da Police”. KRS-Oneshows Jay-Z, 55, and Diddy, also 55, attending a public event as cops handcuff the pair and escort them out of a fictional room.
The couple then pretend to be behind bars with champagne glasses in hand.
50 Cent’s followers were quick to comment on the video post, with one fan writing: “🤯 Whoever showed 50 how to use AI just opened a whole new can of worms,” and another writing: “You can tell 50 doesn’t have skeletons in his closet as he calls everyone out. Real 💪.”
The deepfake post comes after Jay-Z and Combs were accused of rape 13-year-old girl in the early 2000s, via a civil lawsuit filed on Sunday, December 8, by an anonymous woman. The alleged incident is said to have taken place at the MTV Video Music Awards afterparty. Both Jay-Z and Diddy have denied the allegations, while Diddy has also denied all allegations against him since his September 16 arrest.

This isn’t the first time 50 Cent has he scoffed Jay-Z and Diddy’s recent legal troubles. After Jay-Z and the wife Beyonce attended the Mufasa premiere in Hollywood on Monday, December 9, with Beyoncé’s mother Tina Knowlesand the couple’s daughter, Blue Ivy50 Cent shared photos from the outing via social media.
“Jay said they said I rapped (sic) the kid, let’s all get dressed to see.” Mufasa LOL,” 50 Cent wrote after the deleted Instagram post.
Earlier in the day, 50 Cent also alluded to the controversy via a post on his X account that referenced the Super Bowl, sharing a popular meme of himself driving a car. “Okay, I don’t know what’s going on, but are we still going to have a Super Bowl. 😟,” 50 Cent captioned X’s post. “I’m just looking for a friend.”
While the frivolous jabs keep coming, 50 Cent also expressed genuine concern about Jay-Z’s legal issues in an interview with a radio presenter Big Boy for Monday’s episode of BigBoyTV.
Clarifying his X post, 50 Cent said he’s curious about what the allegations mean for next year’s Super Bowl halftime show, which will be headlined by Kendrick Lamar. “I’m looking for Kendrick. I’m just trying to figure out if we’re still doing everything,” 50 Cent explained. (Jay-Z’s Roc Nation produced the 2020 halftime show.)
50 Cent also predicted that the NFL might end its partnership with Jay-Z altogether. “They’re going to retire … the NFL, they’re not necessarily going to be associated with it,” 50 Cent said in an interview.
