AceShowbiz - Ja Rule has deemed 50 Cent "a clown" in a recent interview. More than one month after his dramatic performance at the 2023 BMI R&B/Hip-Hop Awards, the "Livin' It Up" rapper went public with his opinion on the "Straight to the Bank" spitter while defending his onstage performance.
When making an appearance at the Pencils of Promise gala, the 47-year-old hip-hop artist opened up about his performance at the music event and Fif's offensive statement about it. Speaking to Page Six, he stated, "I do not feel like I need to explain myself." He went on to say, "He is just a clown, a troll."
During his September 6 performance, Ja Rule was tied to a wooden column while delivering his song "One of Us", which is featured in his biblically titled album "Rule 3:36". "I was not on the cross. I was actually on a stake, which is what [Jehovah's Witnesses] actually believe Jesus died on," he further clarified to the outlet. He additionally stressed, "A stake versus a cross."
"I feel like I've sacrificed a lot in this industry. Not nothing in the realm of Jesus Christ, don't get me wrong," Ja Rule explained. "What people fail to realize is they act like Jesus was the only one up there, and they were many men being crucified at that moment, too… They just so happen to be criminals. Maybe I am not mocking Jesus, maybe I am one of the criminals."
Shortly after Ja Rule performed, 50 Cent did not hesitate to voice his opinion via social media. On September 7, Fif uploaded on Instagram a video from the gig and wrote in the caption of the post, "[Eyes emoji] look at this s**t head, is he supposed to be Jesus. [laughing face emoji] WTF you can't make this s**t up. LOL so stupid ! #bransoncognac #lecheminduroi."
It did not take long for Ja Rule to fire back. He let out a clip highlighting several incidents that involved Fif throughout his career in the hip-hop music industry. Among the footage was one that showed a woman's injuries following Fif's microphone throw incident. Along with the video, Ja Rule penned, "We ain't forget… Enjoy those criminal charges and lawsuit d**khead!!!"
