This isn’t the first time 50 Cent and Lloyd Banks have been in disagreements. Back in 2016, Lloyd Banks posted a photo with former G-Unit member, The Game. With 50 Cent having a longtime beef with the Compton rapper after leaving the label, he felt betrayed by the picture and commented on the Instagram post with the following: “What do you see when you look at this picture? I see confusion, I’m not sure if it’s just me, I’m a Cancer shit don’t get old with me,” 50 said about the photo at the time. “I never ask for trouble but I really don’t have a problem with it I’m different. The question isn’t how I feel about it, but how does ( Lodi Mac ) feel about it? Some shit is just better off left alone.”

Prior to that, Lloyd Banks and 50 Cent had stopped communicating for a while when Banks lost his father in ’06 followed by his departure from Interscope in 2009, stating that get wasn’t getting support from the label. In an interview with MTV, 50 Cent admits to being insensitive after the passing of Banks’ father.

“There was one point where you can even say I was a bit insensitive. [Banks’] father passed away and I was like, ‘All right, he passed away, but you can’t just go home and stay home.’ He went home and just stayed at the house. Ask Kanye, his mother passed away while his record was at a peak point. If he didn’t go on tour, he wouldn’t be the Kanye you know right now. He worked his way through that situation; the world doesn’t stop.”

“I’m not much older than [Banks], but I’ve been out since I was 12,” 50 Cent continues. “I’ve been hustlin’ since I was 12. Because his father used to hustle, I look at him like one of the homies. When one of my homies gets killed or they pass away, we don’t stop doin’ what we been doin’. We lost…Probably 5 or 6 people got killed while we been on the road prior to him actually behaving that way. We don’t stop what we’ve been doing. To me, it’s an excuse.”
