50 Cent couldn’t pass up an opportunity to poke fun at his longtime rival Ja Rule after the ‘Mesmerize’ rapper invoked Jesus during his latest performance.
50 Cent is a martyr for his own cause: picking on Ja Rule.
The “In Da Club” artist took another shot at his longtime rival after Ja Rule performed at the 2023 BMI R&B/Hip-Hop Awards on Wednesday.

50 Cent posted a video of the gaudy gig on Instagram with the caption, “????look at this s— head, is he supposed to be Jesus.
