Head Case: 50 Cent Hears from Jill Scott, Says He Can’t Get Her Microphone Video Out of His Mind

50 Cent wants Jill Scott to know that he still thinks about her infamous microphone act when she mimicked fellatio.

But the G-Unit rapper didn’t come right out and say it, he relayed the message after he shared a post about staying fit. Because before 50 was that built guy who appeared on his “Get Rich or Die Tryin'” album cover, he seemed to be a little overweight and had a much fuller face.

It’s something 50 hasn’t seemed to forget about, at least based on the post he shared. Either that or he was just fooling around about feeling fat. 50 also commented on Scott’s microphone act in November when a clip of it first surfaced.

“I’m fat, but I identify as skinny,” he wrote Wednesday on Instagram. “I’m trans-slender.”

This is where Scott and the microphone thing comes in, because she responded to 50’s message on the same day. “Ugh fine, to the gym it is,” she wrote underneath his post. “Appearing mean af with the audacity to be inspirational.”

50 then answered the soul singer and said they’ve been involved inside his head for a while.

“I love you,” he wrote. “Jill, we been in a full blown relationship since you did that to that mic. Lol.”

Based on the comments, most people thought 50’s comment was funny, and they let him know. Others seemed to be reminded about Scott’s microphone performance and said it’s still on their minds.

“What she did to that mic was flawless tho,” someone wrote on Instagram.

“i think all men been in a relationship with jill since she did that to the mic 🤣,” another person commented.

There were also some people who seemed disgusted by 50 speaking that way to Scott, and they told the Philly native to stay away.

“If I was Jill, ima go hide 🙈😂😅,” someone admitted.

“Oh lawd Jill run the other way please…….🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️,” another person told the singer.

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
