50 Cent is poking fun at Diddy after Donald Trump alleged the embattled music mogul begged him for a pardon.
Following Trump’s claim that Diddy reached out to him after receiving his 50-month prison sentence, the rapper couldn’t resist taking a jab, posting a mocking reaction on Instagram.
“Man, you can’t get no pardon running your mouth like that! LOL Get outta here,” 50 Cent wrote.
His post came shortly after former President Donald Trump told reporters on Monday (Oct. 6) that Diddy had reached out to him seeking a pardon.
“I’ve had a lot of people ask me for pardons,” Trump said. “I call him Puff Daddy—he’s asked me for a pardon.”
Diddy’s latest conviction stems from violations of the Mann Act, tied to what prosecutors described as “freak offs,” multi-hour or multi-day sexual encounters he allegedly organized, paid for, directed, and filmed involving his girlfriends and male escorts.
Earlier this year, reports surfaced that Trump had “seriously considered” granting the 55-year-old a pardon.
According to a document obtained by Complex, Diddy’s attorney wrote to Judge Arun Subramanian requesting that he “strongly recommend” the music mogul serve his sentence at FCI Fort Dix, a low-security federal prison near New Hanover, New Jersey. The request cited the need to “address drug abuse issues and to maximize family visitation and rehabilitative efforts.”
As TMZ noted, while Judge Subramanian can make such a recommendation, the Bureau of Prisons will ultimately decide where Diddy serves his time.
In addition to his four-year sentence, Diddy was ordered to pay a $500,000 fine.
Meanwhile, 50 Cent is reportedly developing a Netflix docuseries centered on the allegations against Diddy, with proceeds expected to go toward victims of sexual assault. The project is still untitled and has no confirmed release date.
