In a recent exchange of heated words, rapper and entrepreneur 50 Cent found himself at the center of a brewing feud with rising artist Dave Blunts. The tension ignited when 50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis Jackson, took to Instagram to share a now-deleted post that included a photo of Blunts. In the post, he ominously threatened, “If I catch him, I’m pushing down the stairs,” signaling a challenge that Blunts was quick to respond to.
Rather than letting the insult slide, Blunts retaliated with a pointed diss track aimed directly at the veteran rapper. The track’s lyrics notably target 50 Cent’s past, specifically referencing his 2011 film “All Things Fall Apart,” during which the rapper lost significant weight for his role. In a cheeky Instagram post, Blunts remarked, “I’ve been going to the gym and been locked in on my health journey. The world is watching me lose weight, but you lost all that weight for that weak movie and nobody watched that.” It was a clear jab at 50 Cent’s career choices and public image.
On July 21, Blunts escalated the conflict by recording an official diss track that showcased his lyrical prowess and unfiltered disdain. In the track, he raps, “Curtis Jackson won a diss me and I must be smoking on Fent.” He also alludes to 50 Cent’s personal life, rapping about his baby mama and insinuating that the rapper is more of an actor than a legitimate threat. Lines like “Curtis Jackson really don’t want no drama” encapsulate Blunts’ confidence as he positions himself as a formidable newcomer in the rap game.
As of now, 50 Cent has not publicly responded to Blunts’ diss track, leaving fans eager to see how this rivalry will unfold. The back-and-forth between the two artists has garnered significant attention on social media, with followers weighing in on the escalating feud. With both artists known for their sharp tongues and willingness to engage in lyrical battles, the potential for further exchanges remains high.
The ongoing drama highlights the competitive nature of the hip-hop industry, where artists often use their platforms to address grievances and establish dominance. As this feud develops, fans are left to speculate whether 50 Cent will take the bait and return fire, or if he will choose to remain silent in the face of this new challenger. For now, the spotlight remains firmly on Dave Blunts as he continues to make waves in the rap scene.
