50 Cent dismissed T.I.’s offer for a Verzuz in the way he knows best: by trolling on Instagram.
Tip recently appeared on podcast Nightcap, where he revealed that he originally wanted to battle against Gucci Mane before the Atlanta rapper held a Verzuz with Jeezy in 2020.
The rapper and comedian then offered Fifty as a new contender, although he’s also discussed going head-to-head with Lil Wayne before.
“Then I called my man. I said who I wanted. I said I wanted 50,” T.I. said on Nightcap. “He don’t want no smoke, though. I called my man out, he don’t want no smoke. He ducking smoke. It’s cool.”
But in a series of new Instagram posts, Fif clowned T.I.’s suggestion that he couldn’t hold his own against the Paper Trail artist. On Friday (Feb. 6), he posted a video of T.I. participating in a 2010 Atlanta Crime Stoppers commercial.
“I know Atlanta pick and choose who they support, but 😆yall gotta do better. LOL 😆keep my name out ya mouth !” 50 captioned the post.
The G-Unit frontman further suggested that T.I. is a snitch by posting a clip of him testifying in 2008, two years after his friend and assistant, Philant Johnson, was fatally shot after a performance in Cincinnati. In 2008, Hosea Thomas was charged with manslaughter and sentenced to 66 years for the murder, according to FOX 19 Cincinnati.
“No, no , i don’t like it 🤨No verses let’s do (The stay away challenge ) and stay away from me. LOL,” Fif wrote.
Nearly six years ago, Fifty revealed on Big Boy’s Neighborhood that the only rapper he’d challenge to a Verzuz is The Game, formerly of G-Unit.
"Okay, look. He can't play no records with my voice on 'em,” Fif joked.
