T.I. intensifies his feud with 50 Cent, releasing a brutal new diss track.
Building on the tension between the two, T.I. has dropped a second track aimed directly at his longtime adversary. Following the release of “War” just a day prior, the Atlanta rap icon is back with “The Right One,” a longer and more piercing song that takes aim at 50 Cent with no holds barred.
Featuring an aggressive trap beat, T.I.’s lyricism gets deeply personal as he zeroes in on 50 Cent’s appearance, business decisions, and even his past relationships, including 50’s former partner Daphne Joy, who had a history with Diddy.
“N*gga, you got less talent / You’re less attractive, more average / You ain’t got more motion, you’re just movin’ where it’s less traffic / You moved out the way of rappin’ and they gave you the DMX package / You ain’t that savage, n*gga, you 5-0, dispatcher / Ol’ tender dick n*gga, all mad ’cause Puff let your bitch have it / Gave her tartar sauce and mustard like a fish sammich,” he snarls.
T.I. doesn’t stop there — the track contains inflammatory lines about 50’s late mother, further escalating the animosity between them.
“You hate women, guess that’s why you can’t keep one / You can’t love ’em, ’cause from your mama you received none / Oh no, you’d rather set fires to houses with babies in ’em / I got paperwork from n*ggas in prison, your name is in ’em.”
As “The Right One” builds to its conclusion, T.I. continues undermining 50 Cent’s career milestones and referencing his old conflicts with other rappers.
He mocks past feuds that didn’t go in Fif’s favor: “Murder Inc. pumped his ass full of bullet holes / Cam did him like a ho on the radio / Took losses from Rick Ross and Fat Joe (remember that?) / Jada spanked that baby thinkin’ it’s sweet / Kanye stood up to him, made his first week a defeat.”
“The Right One” and “War” both follow a heated back-and-forth between T.I. and 50 Cent over a potential Verzuz battle between the two hip-hop heavyweights.
So far, 50 Cent has yet to clap back. Fans of both artists are waiting to see if this marks the start of an even fiercer exchange between the rap heavyweights.
