50 Cent is relentless.
The rapper and TV producer this week responded to a resurfaced clip of the late Irv Gotti alleging that Fif ratted him out to police.
In 2019, Gotti sat down with DJ Vlad, who asked the music exec about 50 Cent’s involvement in Gotti’s early 2000s federal money laundering case.
“Now why would he say such nasty things about me knowing I’m a born again Christian,” Fif wrote in a since-deleted Instagram post alongside a screenshot of Gotti from the interview. “These people just get in the way, Uh-huh it’s God’s plan. R.I.P.”
In the full clip, Vlad asked Gotti how he thinks 50 Cent was involved in his federal case, to which Gotti claimed that Fif had “been talking to the police.”
“He's a very unique individual because here's a guy who starts beef and pretends that he is the bully and the roughest toughest n***a on the face of the earth, right, and then he tells on you,” Gotti said. “It's like the biggest oxymoron and the biggest mind-fucking trickery to the public. Those that don't know think this guy's ill and he's tough, but when you look at it … he's fooled the world.”
Gotti alleged that after 50 Cent was shot nine times in 2000, he began cooperating with the police.
“When you're in your bed shot the fuck up. I think the police and the feds came to him, and I think he told them a great story of Irv Gotti and Kenneth ‘Supreme’ McGriff,” Gotti said, referencing a former drug lord involved in Gotti’s money laundering case.
“I think [50’s] been telling [the police] stories," he continued. "I think he still tells them stories, which probably makes him feel untouchable. Because he's with the police so he can beef with anybody. He’s with the police.”
Gotti then claimed that he believed the devil “saved” 50 Cent from dying during the shooting, which occurred outside of his grandmother's house in Queens, New York, and left him with injuries to his hand, arm, hip, legs, chest, and face.
“I don't think God would save somebody who moves like that—I don't think God would save somebody who disrespects his own family," Gotti said. "Everything you think of 50 is just negative. He's just an engine of negativity, beef, chaos. Sounds like he's with Satan to me, man.”
In January 2003, federal agents raided the Murder Inc. Records offices following a year-long investigation into the connection between Gotti, his brother Chris, and McGriff.
Investigators believed McGriff gave the brothers $1 million to launch Murder Inc. and to use the label as a front for money laundering. The brothers were acquitted of all charges in December 2005.
50 Cent and Irv Gotti continued to beef for over two decades, fueled by diss tracks, robberies, fights, and even stabbings. When Gotti died last February from a stroke last February, 50 gloated on Instagram.
"I’m smoking on dat Gotti pack, nah God bless him LOL," he wrote.
