Ja Rule Says He's 50 Cent's Daddy

50 Cent versus Ja Rule is the online battle that never happened. But even the talk of it has caused a good deal of drama.

Ja said he would battle 50 a few days ago during a call with Fat Joe and the Verzuz battle co-founder Swizz Beatz. The concept of the battle is each artist plays 20 of their hits and the viewers decide the winner.

Fif responded to Ja shortly after by posting that popular meme of himself laughing, then speeding off in a car. He continued to mock him a little more after that, and Ja said the G-Unit rapper was scared to battle him.

The Murder Inc. artist issued another message about 50 after: That he influenced him musically. Ja made that statement after Peter Rosenberg and DJ Kast One played his hits along with 50s.
