Shortly after Young Buck blamed 50 Cent for forcing him into bankruptcy, Fif has claimed the G-Unit rapper and Benzino are gay in another homophobic post.

In the past, Fif has shared countless homophobic and transphobic posts directed at Buck, and he revitilized his beef with his former group-mate back in February following his arrest for vandalism. His latest posts directed at Buck, and now Benzino, due to rumors surrounding his sexuality, appear to be a direct response to Buck’s claims about Fif’s business practices.

“Young Buck, Benzino just embrace who you are but don’t pat nobody butt when they score a basket,” 50 wrote alongside a clip in which Benzino addresses some rumors. “Hahaha, Nah. FOR REAL! PUNK.” Trans actress Shauna Brooks recently claimed that Benzino had a brief relationship with her, and that’s what the clips Fif shared out of context appear to be about. “I don’t watch trans porn, but that’s just me,” Benzino said in the clip.

The second video, which seems to be a leaked phone conversation between Brooks and Benzino, sees the rapper explain why it could “look bad” for him to be seen with a trans woman. “You don’t fucking look bad, I do,” he said. “You can never look bad. In this world you ain’t doing nothing wrong. It would be wrong if I did. Can’t you get that through your head? You’re not looking bad Shauna. You’re looking like a fucking chick. … I’m looking wrong ‘cause what the fuck are you trying to do fucking with a transgender?”

“LOL OH MY GOD, THIS GUY IS CRAZY,” wrote Fif alongside the second clip.

It’s unclear how any of this situation directly relates to Young Buck, but 50 Cent has long accused the rapper of being in a relationship with a trans woman. Fif, however, has always done so with a series of transphobic comments.

In a series of posts on his Instagram Story, Benzino directly addressed 50 Cent. “Keep pushing my buttons boy @50cent,” he wrote. “You not getting anymore Crab Trap hook ups. … So @50cent wanna clown me for fucking with the trans community? Someone ask him why Power got gay as hell this season. … Yo @50Cent I heard you watch all those Drew and Everett scenes back each week.”
