The Day Cam’ron Found Out How DANGEROUS 50 Cent Really is… | HO

Hip-hop has always been a battleground for lyrical warfare, and few rap feuds have been as entertaining and intense as the one between 50 Cent and Cam’ron. Though the two New York rappers are now on good terms in 2025, there was a time when their beef nearly escalated to a breaking point. This is the story of the day Cam’ron found out just how ruthless 50 Cent could be.

How It All Started: A Radio Clash Turns Into WarIt all began on Hot 97 in 2007 when 50 Cent was being interviewed by Angie Martinez. At the time, 50 Cent was at the peak of his dominance in hip-hop, running G-Unit Records, and selling millions of records worldwide. During the interview, he made a comment about Koch Records, where Cam’ron and his Diplomats crew were releasing their music. 50 Cent called Koch “the graveyard” of the industry, implying that artists who were no longer relevant would end up there.

Cam’ron, never one to back down from a challenge, called into the station mid-interview to confront 50 Cent live on air. The exchange quickly turned into a shouting match, with both rappers talking over each other and taking shots at their success.

Cam argued that Koch was an independent powerhouse that allowed artists to make more money than being on a major label. 50, however, was adamant that Koch was where careers went to die. The heated argument ended with both rappers firing shots at each other, but neither was ready to let it go. What followed was one of the funniest and pettiest beefs in hip-hop history.

50 Cent’s Ruthless Response: Funeral MusicFollowing the radio exchange, 50 Cent wasted no time in hitting back. He dropped a diss track titled “Funeral Music,” a cold, calculated response aimed directly at Cam’ron. The track was filled with brutal bars, mocking Cam’s position in the rap game, and letting him know that he was about to get buried.

But 50 didn’t stop at just music. He took things to another level. In an eerie display of intimidation, 50 Cent sent a delivery to Cam’ron’s office. What was inside? Two black roses and a miniature coffin.

To make things even more dramatic, 50 Cent filmed himself riding around in a hearse, symbolizing the “death” of Cam’ron’s career. It was the type of psychological warfare that only 50 Cent could mastermind.

Cam’ron’s Response: CurtisIf there’s one thing Cam’ron is known for, it’s his humor and creativity. Instead of responding with aggression, he clowned 50 Cent in his own way. He released a diss track titled “Curtis”, mocking 50 Cent’s real name, Curtis Jackson, and implying that he was a snitch.

The song came with a hilarious music video in which Cam’ron portrayed 50 Cent as a police officer, complete with a fake badge and snitch persona. He even called him “Currrrtis” in a high-pitched voice throughout the track, turning the feud into comedy gold.

But Cam’ron didn’t stop there. He doubled down on the jokes, releasing a second part to his diss track that was more of a skit than a song. In the skit, Cam’ron played a parody version of 50 Cent, pretending to be an informant cooperating with law enforcement.

The Aftermath: Who Won?While both rappers had their moments, there was no denying that 50 Cent had the upper hand in this battle.
“Funeral Music” was a lethal diss track, and 50’s decision to send Cam a hearse and black roses made it clear that he wasn’t just talking—he was playing mental warfare.

Meanwhile, Cam’ron’s humorous approach made the feud entertaining, but it lacked the same weight as 50 Cent’s raw, aggressive attack.
The beef ultimately fizzled out over time. Cam’ron took a brief hiatus from rap due to personal issues, and by the time he returned, 50 Cent had moved on to other targets.

2025: A New Era of Peace?Fast forward to 2025, and 50 Cent and Cam’ron are no longer enemies. In fact, the two have been seen in good spirits and have even spoken positively about each other in recent interviews. But that doesn’t erase the history between them.

Even today, hip-hop fans still look back at the Cam’ron vs. 50 Cent feud as one of the most hilarious yet brutal rap beefs in history. It was a perfect example of lyrical warfare, psychological games, and showmanship, all wrapped into one.

While Cam’ron may have learned the hard way just how ruthless 50 Cent could be, he also showed the world that he was more than capable of standing his ground and making hip-hop beef entertaining in a way that only he could.

Final ThoughtsHip-hop feuds are a staple of the culture, but few have been as funny, strategic, and brutal as 50 Cent vs. Cam’ron. The radio argument, the diss tracks, the hearse, the black roses, and the skits—everything about this beef was legendary.

At the end of the day, both rappers cemented their legacies in hip-hop history, and their battle remains one of the most talked-about rap feuds of all time.
