50 Cent Responds to Criticism of His Netflix Docuseries
50 Cent has publicly responded after members of the Let’s Rap About It podcast criticized his four-part docuseries on Diddy.
On Monday night, December 15, 50 Cent took to Instagram, where he posted a series of images targeting Jim Jones, Fabolous, Dave East, and Maino, who had discussed the documentary on their podcast. His post began with a slide showing the definition of the word “squatter,” followed by an image of the four artists alongside the podcast’s logo.
The post also included screenshots of a news report stating that Jim Jones had lost his home in New Jersey, as well as older photos of Jones attending events with both Sean Combs and Pusha T.
In the caption, 50 Cent wrote:
“These guys are squatters, they owe 250,000 k for the space they are filming their podcast,”
“These bums are trying to win best dressed award and can’t pay their bills.”
Podcast Hosts React to the Diddy Documentary
In a separate Instagram post, 50 Cent shared a clip from Let’s Rap About It in which the hosts discussed Sean Combs: The Reckoning. In the video, Jim Jones shared his thoughts on the series and referred to it as a “mockumentary.”
Jones also stated that 50 Cent displayed what he described as “petty behavior” by producing a documentary that portrayed Combs as “weak.” During the discussion, Fabolous questioned whether producing the documentary was “wrong” and asked if it was legal.
Following the circulation of the clip, 50 Cent responded online with another post, writing: “I understand Diddy was your hero, stay down with him,” “I don’t care if you let him play with ya butt, then act like you don’t remember.

Maino Addresses 50 Cent’s Comments
Maino, who co-hosts the Let’s Rap About It podcast, later responded publicly to the situation.
In a statement shared online, Maino said: “Meet Killer Curly Ladies & Gentlemen…He Helped Me Get My Record Deal Before So Imma Always Be Grateful, So It’s Gone Hurt Me To Drag This Na To Hell!
. Fck Is The Problem Curtis? What Has Your G Unit G- String In a Bunch Na? Is It The Btch Or The Diabetes? But Let’s Rap About It!!!”
The exchange continued to circulate across social media platforms as fans reacted to the ongoing back-and-forth.
Background on the Netflix Docuseries and Legal Response
The dispute follows the release of 50 Cent’s four-part Netflix series examining the legal issues surrounding Sean “Diddy” Combs. After the series premiered earlier this month, 50 Cent stated that additional allegations did not make the final cut and said he plans to release that footage on YouTube.
Combs and his legal team have denied the claims presented in the documentary. They labeled the series “a shameless hit piece” and issued a cease-and-desist letter to Netflix.
According to reports, Netflix has not complied with the request. As a result, Combs is reportedly preparing to pursue legal action against the streaming platform, seeking damages in the millions.
