Moments ago, on September 1, 2025, 50 Cent set the internet ablaze with a blistering Instagram post accusing Sean “Diddy” Combs of masterminding the 1996 murder of Tupac Shakur, escalating a long-simmering feud into a full-blown hip-hop firestorm. Posting a photo of Tupac and Suge Knight from the night of the fatal Las Vegas drive-by, 50 Cent wrote, “Damn so pac got lined by brother love. LOL Time to Lawyer up, sh*t might get sticky,” directly referencing Diddy’s “Brother Love” moniker. The post, liked by thousands, has #DiddyExposed trending on X, with fans buzzing: “50 Cent calling out Diddy for Tupac’s murder? This is INSANE! 😲🎶 #JusticeForTupac.”

The allegations stem from Duane “Keefe D” Davis, a former Southside Crips member arrested in September 2023 for Tupac’s murder. In a 2009 police interview, Keefe claimed Diddy offered $1 million to eliminate Tupac and Suge Knight, a claim echoed by informants in 1996 and 1997, per LAPD detective Greg Kading’s investigations. “Diddy wanted them gone to secure Bad Boy’s dominance,” said music historian Lena Carter. Keefe alleged the payment went through intermediary Eric “Zip” Martin, who kept the money to open a nightclub, leaving the Crips unpaid. X users are split, with one tweeting, “Keefe’s story checks out! Diddy’s in deep! 🚨,” while another countered, “No hard proof, just talk. 50’s stirring drama! 🤔.”

50 Cent isn’t alone. Eminem, in his 2018 diss track Killshot aimed at Machine Gun Kelly, rapped, “The day you put out a hit’s the day Diddy admits that he put out the hit that got Pac killed,” fueling speculation. Fans on X rallied post-Keefe’s arrest, with one posting, “Eminem knew! Diddy’s been dodging this for years! 😡 #TupacTruth.” The timing is critical: Diddy faces federal racketeering charges and lawsuits alleging coercion, while Keefe’s trial, delayed to November 2024, keeps the case alive. “The net’s closing,” Carter noted. “50’s post is a match to gasoline.”

Yet, former LAPD detective Greg Kading, who investigated Tupac’s and Biggie’s murders, remains skeptical of Diddy facing charges. “You need ironclad witnesses to confirm the money changed hands for the hit,” he told Rolling Stone. With key figures like Zip and Orlando Anderson deceased, evidence is scarce. Keefe himself downplayed Diddy’s role in interviews, calling it “talk” not taken seriously, though his arrest has reignited scrutiny. “If there’s a paper trail, Diddy’s in trouble,” said legal analyst Mark Torres. “But it’s hearsay without it.”

X is a battleground, with #50vsDiddy trending. “50 Cent’s been calling Diddy out forever! He’s got receipts! 💪,” one user posted. Another countered, “This is just 50 trolling. No court will touch Diddy without proof! 😒.” Diddy has denied involvement, dismissing claims as “nonsense” to AllHipHop in 2008. Still, 50 Cent’s relentless posts and Eminem’s past jabs keep the pressure on, with fans speculating about a broader industry cover-up. “The whole game knew something,” one X user wrote. “Tupac’s truth is coming! 🙏.”

As the Tupac case remains unsolved, 50 Cent’s accusations amplify the mystery. Is Diddy a mastermind or a scapegoat? Will Keefe’s trial expose more? The hip-hop world watches, divided yet riveted.
