Fyre Festival Organizer Wants 50 Cent To Replace Ja Rule For Second Iteration

September 14, 2024 by newhiphopnews

If you hadn’t already heard, Fyre Festival 2 is allegedly taking place next year, and already has some big developments underway. Moreover, TMZ recently caught up with the festival’s organizer Billy McFarland over the weekend and asked him about the supposed follow-up to the disastrous first iteration that landed him in prison. He says that this next festival will fully live up to the first’s promises, and he apparently has hard dates already lined up for April 25 of next year in Mexico. However, the most important and interesting part of McFarland’s new statement (which you can check out by clicking the “Via” link below) came later… That is, if you’re a fan of hip-hop and rap beef.

Billy McFarland asked 50 Cent to replace his former Fyre Festival partner Ja Rule to spruce up the entertainment department. Apparently, live music will be but a small part of this second iteration, amid other luxuries like scuba diving. In addition, he also claimed that 3,000 people already signed up to stay at the island they rented. But McFarland’s words are particularly curious because of Fif and Ja’s long-running feud, and because of his own issues with the latter.

For those unaware, the last update in Billy McFarland and Ja Rule’s dispute over who messed Fyre Festival up was the former’s boxing challenge to the latter. Here’s how he proposed it: someone was willing to pay $350,000 to see the two battle for 15 minutes, and all that money would go to all the employees that didn’t receive payment for their work during the festival. Maybe 50 Cent is the one willing to cough up some cash to try to embarrass his sworn rival some more…

As for 50 Cent and Ja Rule… Do you really need an explanation or update? They are always clowning each other and mocking each other online, whether it’s for sports teams losses or other hip-hop fare. If the G-Unit mogul were to participate in Fyre Festival 2, that would be a pretty big slap in the face to his Murder Inc. nemesis. But then again, they’re used to those jabs…

50 Cent Clowns Ja Rule Over Allegedly Cursing The New York Knicks

May 10, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Ja Rule is alleged to have cursed the New York Knicks chances of winning their first NBA Championship since 1973. Ja was heard saying, ‘Champions only, baby. Go Knicks!’ as he raised and kissed the prized Larry O’Brien trophy before the game. This act left Knicks supporters quite concerned. Fans speculated that Ja Rule’s curse might have affected the game, as players like Jalen Brunson and OG Anunoby were injured despite the Knicks winning. The curse may have been real.

50 Cent has joined the group of enraged Knicks supporters who believe Ja Rule cursed the NBA franchise. Ja lifted the NBA Championship before the Knicks did, which is seen as unlucky, and 50, who needs no reason to take a jab at his old foe, took notice. People are obviously running with the idea that Ja cursed the Knicks, and the growing injury list for the New York team suggests they may be right. 50 Cent tweeted his roast of Ja Rule on Twitter, knowing that his longtime enemy may have cursed the New York Knicks.

50 Cent Trolls Ja Rule Over Cursing The Knicks

On social media, 50 Cent shared a video of Ja holding the Larry O’Brien trophy along with the caption, “Oh sh*t, don’t bet on the Knicks to win this next game.” 50 continued hilariously, saying, “This janky ass [ninja emoji] put his juju all on the team. Fuck that I’m bet my money on the wolves! LOL.” Knicks fans obviously gravitated to 50’s post, agreeing with the rapper and throwing more shade at Ja Rule. It’s an unfortunate turn of events for Ja Rule, who was just having some fun before the Knicks game. Now, unfortunately, he may get the blame if the Knocks don’t advance to the next round.

The Knicks are currently up 2-0 on the Indiana Pacers. Jalen Brunson, the Knicks superstar guard who has been carrying the team, suffered a foot injury in game two. He was able to return after missing the entire second quarter. Knicks defensive stopper OG Anunoby suffered a hamstring injury in the fourth quarter and has since been ruled out of game 3 in Indiana. The Knicks injury report continues to grow. Ultimately, Ja Rule better hope they close out the Pacers.

Ja Rule Continues To Reflect On 50 Cent & G-Unit Beef Amid Drake & Kendrick Lamar Feud

April 22, 2024 by newhiphopnews

If you’re a rapper and you haven’t talked about the Drake and Kendrick Lamar beef yet, you’re either missing out on some clicks or avoiding feeding into feud narratives that only benefit the powers that be. However, some expert voices feel like they almost have to weigh in, and one veteran in rap spats recently reflected on his biggest battle. Moreover, Ja Rule recently responded to a fan on Twitter who was referencing his rivalry with 50 Cent and the rest of G-Unit. This came up as a result of discussion around K.Dot and The Boy’s current head-to-head, and the Murder Inc. affiliate reminisced on how things were just different back then.

“They said @50cent had ja rule seeing 20,” one fan responded to Ja Rule’s expression that he can relate to Drake being in a “20v1.” “[G-Unit] literally had an ORDER OF PROTECTION against murder Inc… can you imagine if one of the camps in this beef right now put an order of protection on the other… [laughing face emojis].” Still, the New York MC also had some more nuanced and communal perspectives to share on the beef. “Hip hop is a family… and no one wins when the family feuds!!! Don’t let that go over your head… #hiphopvseverybody,” he had ironically tweeted a day before speaking on his nemesis 50 Cent.

Ja Rule Thinks His 50 Cent Feud Looked Way Different From Drake & Kendrick Lamar’s Current Spat

As for that historical spat, here’s how Steve Stoute broke down how the 50 Cent and Ja Rule war began. “I think 50 knew that Ja was not who he was portraying as an image,” he remarked on Club Shay Shay. “Ja [was a] Jehovah’s Witness… I’m not saying they not supposed to rap, but Ja was coming up with this gangster image. It was like, ‘That’s a stretch for you,’ they had some very neighborhood beef. I remember when we signed 50 there was something going on. I think he snatched Ja’s chain, or somebody snatched somebody’s… And then they had a fight in Atlanta… And it was just like, I never understood it.”

Meanwhile, Ja thinks that this is a one-sided feud, and that he actually beat 50 in a fight during all this back-and-forth. How do you think their battle compares to Kendrick Lamar and Drake’s? Whatever the case, let us know what you interpret down in the comments section below. Also, log back into HNHH for the latest updates and more news on Ja Rule and 50 Cent.

Tony Yayo Blasts DJ Vlad For Question About 50 Cent & Ja Rule Beef

May 11, 2023 by newhiphopnews

When it comes to rap beef, don’t ask Tony Yayo about Terror Squad versus G-Unit. Moreover, DJ Vlad learned that lesson the hard way during a recent interview with him, albeit one of many they’ve done together. As such, to hear the New York rapper bas Vlad so quickly is surprising yet understandable considering how they know how these things go. Furthermore, Yayo stopped the media personality after he asked about the beef between 50 Cent and Ja Rule. He was speaking on E-40’s ejection from a Kings-Warriors game and noting that 50 was also at that game and went on about his numerous deals with NBA Teams.

That’s when DJ Vlad tried to bring that discussion around to the Ja Rule beef. “If Ja Rule came forward and publicly said listen I wanna apologize to 50 Cent and G-Unit X, Y and Z, I was young, you know what I mean? We were all wild–” Vlad asked before Tony Yayo interrupted him. “Vlad, I’m just gonna take it back to the first shut the f**k up,” he clapped back. “Shut the f**k up with that s**t Vlad.”

Tony Yayo Checks DJ Vlad

For those unaware, Fif and Ja go way back in their beef, which exploded in the mid-2000s when the latter worked with Terror Squad. In fact, Tony Yayo called it the “realest beef” that G-Unit ever acted on. “Yo, the realest beef was with Terror Squad,” he expressed in a previously posted Instagram video. “He was a real n***a, I gotta give it up. The realest beef was with Fat Joe and them. We outside.” Said beef continues to this day, with them recently arguing over the Minnesota Timberwolves.

However, Ja Rule doesn’t really see it as a problem, as he recounted in an interview with The Shade Room. “If 50 Cent was to walk in here right now, what do you think would happen?” he asked the interviewer. After they said “Well, nothing, obviously,” the rapper replied with “Exactly! That’s what I’m saying. We don’t have an issue. We don’t have a problem. Like, c’mon dog. I’m very relevant out here. I don’t have nothing to prove to anybody. I just, you know, I just want people to understand my side. My side of it is, I really don’t give a f**k.” For the latest news and updates on this beef and Tony Yayo, stick around on HNHH.
