The digital sparring between New York heavyweights Papoose and 50 Cent has hit a fever pitch in 2026, evolving from petty social media memes into actual diss tracks.

The tension escalated significantly in early March 2026 when Papoose released a blistering car freestyle over 50 Cent’s iconic “Many Men” beat. In the video, Papoose didn’t hold back, opening with “F*ck Curtis Jackson” and questioning 50’s musical relevance since his debut. He took personal aim at 50’s past relationships and business ventures, even mocking the classic G-Unit sneakers, signaling that the Brooklyn lyricist is ready for a full-scale lyrical war.

50 Cent, never one to stay silent, responded with his signature brand of dismissive wit. Taking to Instagram, the G-Unit mogul brushed off the attack, labeling Papoose a “short bus shorty” and claiming he doesn’t respond to “rappers who can’t write a hit.” While 50 seems content to stay in the digital trolling lane, his jabs at Papoose’s personal life and his refusal to step into the booth have only added more fuel to the fire.

Yesterday, Papoose dropped another diss towards Fifty, this time, its a full 5-minute diss track and he namedropped Eminem again, like he did on “Many Men” freestyle. Papoose opens the first verse of the diss with: “He was a crab in the barrel until Eminem picked him, Made himself famous by claiming he was a victim” line. Later in the diss, he mentions Em again: “Disrespect your homies, why you cut all of your partners’ throats? You ain’t diss Eminem, he your slave master.” You can check the disstrack below:
