Desiigner has taken a shot at 50 Cent in a newly released freestyle, addressing a past snub regarding a record deal. In a video posted on Instagram on September 3, the Brooklyn rapper aired his grievances with the G-Unit mogul, who had previously passed on signing him.
50 Cent, known for his active social media presence and quick retorts, has yet to respond to the diss. This feud comes after 50 Cent shared on Gillie Da Kid and Wallo’s *Million Dollaz Worth of Game* podcast that he was once interested in signing Desiigner to G-Unit Records. Despite being impressed by Desiigner’s hit “Panda,” 50 Cent’s interest waned after a disappointing follow-up music session, leading him to pass on the opportunity.
Desiigner, who originally signed with Kanye West’s G.O.O.D. Music and Def Jam, has faced challenges replicating the success of his debut hit. Although he departed from Def Jam in 2019, he recently collaborated with Kanye West again on the track “Sky City.”
The exchange underscores ongoing tensions in the hip-hop industry as artists navigate career decisions and public perceptions.
