50 Cent has reignited his ongoing feud with Black Mafia Family’s Big Meech and his son, Lil Meech, by suggesting the younger Meech is battling drug addiction. Taking a break from promoting his Roku TV channel on Tuesday (April 1), the rapper-producer posted a series of photos on Instagram showing Lil Meech asleep in a wheelchair, fueling speculation about substance abuse. To drive his point home, 50 set the post to Amy Winehouse’s “Rehab” and wrote, “Damn, this is BAD. You believe me now? Oh, now you want to believe me, OK.”
Not stopping there, 50 Cent dragged Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Rick Ross into the controversy. He shared an image of the two with Lil Meech, writing, “HELP. Help him out. You guys knew what you were doing. You used him, and now you’re not gonna be there for him. SMH.”
50 Cent & Lil Meech Beef
This latest jab follows 50’s earlier claims that he personally sent Lil Meech to rehab during his time portraying his father on BMF. Back in February, 50 alleged that Big Meech wasn’t comfortable with their relationship, accusing him of downplaying his son’s alleged drug use. Outside of 50’s assumption, Lil Meech has never had a public incident that involved drugs. He was detained after a gun was found in his carry-on content several years ago. He’d be quickly released and take a private plane to his destination.
“I think he was uncomfortable with me and MeMe’s [Lil Meech’s] relationship,” 50 wrote on Instagram. “I’m telling MeMe I don’t want him doing drugs. He telling me he used to do X like it’s cool… People don’t know I had to send MeMe to rehab. Russell Hornsby peeped he was high as f**k on set.” The back-and-forth adds another layer to the longstanding tension between 50 Cent and the Black Mafia Family figures. Lil Meech, who rose to prominence playing his father in 50’s hit STARZ series, has yet to respond to the latest accusations.
