In a viral video from the event, Lil Rod, flanked by Uncle Murda, called out Diddy, demanding, “We want that money by Monday.” Uncle Murda, filming the interaction, amplified the demand, adding, “My boy want that check, n***a.” The incident underscores the ongoing tensions between Lil Rod and the Bad Boy Records founder.
50 Cent took to social media to respond to the situation, downplaying the drama with a casual tone. He remarked, “Everyone was invited, it was the place to be that weekend. [shrug emoji] what you want me to do? LOL.”
Diddy’s lawyer, Shawn Holley, has vehemently denied Lil Rod's claims, calling them “pure fiction” and asserting that they have substantial evidence proving the lawsuit is baseless. Holley also criticized Lil Rod’s attorney for not responding to their attempts to resolve the issue.
Amid the lawsuit controversy, 50 Cent's comments about the hip-hop industry’s silence on Diddy’s alleged misconduct have added another layer to the unfolding drama. He suggested that many celebrities are staying quiet out of concern for their own reputations.
The incident reflects the ongoing rivalries and legal disputes within the music industry, with 50 Cent’s event serving as an unexpected backdrop for this latest development in the Diddy-Lil Rod saga.
