Bow Wow and 50 Cent Make Up After a Misunderstanding Takes Place Amid 50 Cent’s Beef with Madonna

It’s a rarity that anyone gets to see 50 Cent make up with someone he’s beefing with, but it looks like he and Bow Wow are putting a little misunderstanding behind them.

In the midst of the quarrel he has going on with legendary singer Madonna, the New York native had a new one going with Bow Wow, which turned out to be slight miscommunication. After TheShadeRoom reposted Madonna’s clapback to 50 Cent’s fake apology for making fun of her body, he noticed that Bow Wow liked the repost.

He assumed that meant that Bow Wow was taking up for Madonna and commented, “I see Bow Wow mad i told everybody he took that money home from the strip club. SMH fool that money was for the dancers.”

In a repost of 50 Cent’s statement, Bow Wow, born Shad Moss, responded to 50 letting him know what was his true intention behind him liking the previous post. Seemingly unbothered, he said, “I liked it cuz u dissed her fool if u swipe over its your post.”

50 Cent responded by mentioning an old beef between him and Bow Wow. He said, “ok i’m a let you come to Tycoon. LOL.” Tycoon is a pool party thrown by 50 Cent in which celebrities are in attendance. However, in 2019, 50 Cent trolled Bow Wow for allegedly stealing money for the strippers from the party and even told R&B singer Trey Songz and Jermaine Dupri not to bring Bow Wow back to the party.

He went back and forth between Twitter and Instagram, accusing Bow Wow of the same crime. On Twitter, he showed a video of the exotic dancers and someone carrying around a bag of money. But as several fans said in the comments, its unclear if the person is Bow Wow.

“We came there like this,” he tweeted in the 2019 post. “ Bow wow stealing ones why the fuck you ain’t throw that to the dancers.you better get me the fucking money by Monday.”

On Instagram, he shared a photo of Bow Wow and his mentor Dupri and said “This shit is Bad JD, ya man can’t come party with us no more. @jermainedupri this bum shit.”

Bow Wow followed up with an IG video of his own, saying that 50 “know” he came to the party with his “own bag.” He even gloated that he’s been “getting this movie money before him” and “TV money before him.”

Good to see all that drama is behind them for now.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

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 in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones 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.
