50 Cent, the rap mogul whose Get Rich or Die Tryin’ (2003, 8M copies) and 2025 Power Book V (£500M franchise) have built a £200M empire, has filed a $70 million lawsuit against Donald Trump on October 20, 2025, in New York Supreme Court, accusing the former president of “vicious, calculated defamation” during a live TV ambush on The View on October 15, 2025, where Trump called 50 Cent a “fake rapper” and “tax cheat” amid a 2024 IRS audit dispute (£10M owed). The suit, filed by attorney Ben Brafman, labels it “character execution broadcast to millions,” demanding $70M for “emotional distress” and “reputational harm,” a war that’s sparked 4.2M #50CentSlam posts as fans rally behind the rapper’s “pay the price” plea.
The “live TV war”? A war of words: Trump, 79, during a View interview promoting his 2025 book Letters to Trump (£1M sales), pivoted from 50 Cent’s 2024 endorsement flip (from Trump to Harris) to quip, “50 Cent’s a fake—taxes more than he raps,” a quip that quipped the quip of the 2024 audit leak (The New York Times, 5M views). 50 Cent’s team fired back: “This wasn’t commentary – it was character execution,” the “humiliation on live TV” a humiliation for the 1.5M View viewers, a counter to Trump’s 2025 rally chants (“Fake 50!” 50k attendees). The “pay the price” a price for the “price” of the 2024 Power finale (£50M gross), the “war” a war for the war-weary.
The “fans rallying”? A torrent of tenacity: The filing, with a clip of Trump’s quip, has flooded X with “50’s right!” cries, Brafman’s “broadcast to millions” a broadcast for the broadcasted. The “redefining media venom”? A clarion call: 50 Cent’s 2024 Hustle Harder (£750k sales) and 2025 Starz deal (£30M) amplify the “venom,” a light for the 1 in 5 celebrities facing defamation (TMZ stats). Critics call it “PR ploy,” but the 1-in-2 claim-to-cleanup ratio hooks.
This isn’t rapper retort; it’s a requiem for reputation, 50’s “lawsuit” a light for the libeled. The ambush? Ambushing. October 20? Not filing—a flare. The world’s watching—whispering “what next?” The war? Waged, waiting.
