AceShowbiz - 50 Cent can't keep his promise for too long. After declaring that he would stop picking fight online, Fiddy is back at it again with the trolling. He recently teased Taraji P. Henson following a huge debut of his newly-launched ABC series "For Life".
The rapper shared on Instagram on Thursday, February 13 a screenshot of text message exchange in which he was informed about the show's debut ratings. According to Nielson Social Content Ratings, "For Life" had a record-breaking debut this week.
"For Life was the #1 most special series premiere of any primetime entertainment program on broadcast or cable so far this season," read the message. The text continued, "Broadcast or cable....that's all you!!!!"
Captioning the bragging post, the "Candy" spitter wrote, "alright, alright, alright," before mentioning the "Empire" star, "see tell @tarajiphenson i want to work with her LOL."
The tension between the "Power" actor/executive producer and the Golden Globe Award winner after he commented on "Empire" back in 2015. He accused "Empire" of copying his Starz show's marketing campaign. "POWER Season 2 is unbelievably good trust me. I have the best writers and show runner. I like Terrence Howard and Taraji Henson. I don't like that they would copy the marketing," so Fiddy ignited the feud in a now-deleted post on Instagram.
Taraji then responded to the remarks during her appearances on T.I.'s podcast "Expeditiously" in January. "Our show has nothing to do with his show, we're talking two different subject matters," so the "Hidden Figures" star explained. "Then again 50, do you know what the fuck I had to do to get here? Why tear down another black person? For 'competition?' There are a million other shows you can compete with. And to do that publically, it's embarrassing."
