50 Cent Mocks Diddy's Rehab Efforts: 'It Don't Work'

The G-Unit general recalled Diddy entering treatment years before his trial for sex trafficking and racketeering.

50 Cent doubts that Diddy will improve after completing rehabilitation and therapy for drug abuse.

On Tuesday (July 15), TMZ reported that the Bad Boy Entertainment founder entered several programs following his acquittal on charges of sex trafficking and racketeering.

Among the programs is one focused on domestic violence prevention. The mogul's ex-girlfriend, former Bad Boy artist Casandra 'Cassie' Ventura, testified that Diddy assaulted her numerous times during their 11-year relationship.

50 responded skeptically to the news. He referenced the fact that Diddy had been down this road before — the mogul went into rehab about a month after his now-infamous violent attack on Ventura in a Los Angeles hotel in March, 2016.

"I mean, I hit rock bottom, but I make no excuses," Diddy said in 2024 when video of the assault surfaced. "I went and I sought out professional help and I had to go into therapy."

Fif', who has trolled Diddy nonstop for months, said that his antagonist's violence and drug use weren't stopped by that long-ago rehab.

"My manz did that program came home got high and caught another DV it don't work," the G-Unit general wrote on Instagram.

While 50 wasn't clear exactly what he was referring to, Diddy's legal team admitted during his federal criminal trial that he attacked the pseudonymous Jane Doe, though they claimed it was self-defense since Jane was physical first. In addition, there was a great deal of testimony about Diddy's drug use, and drugs were found in the hotel room where was staying when he was arrested in September, 2024.

TMZ reports that Diddy's drug treatment began before his arrest last September but has since continued during his time at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn.

The music executive was found guilty on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution and faces up to 20 years in prison. He will be sentenced on October 3.
