50 Cent in all his Instagram ruthlessness set his eye on Common this past Sunday. These days 50 is known for trolling and dragging people– he kind of operates his page as a comedy page except it’s at the expense of others.
On Sunday after getting wind of Common still talking about his past relationship with Erykah Badu, 50 could not fathom why he would be bringing her up and the relationship ended so long ago. But not only did 50 shade Common he threw his ex- Vivica A. Fox in the mix.
In a reposted photo 50 captioned.
“I be telling b*tches do not give me no Erykah Badu booty,” he wrote overtop the caption over Common’s face which read, “The Male Vivica Fox.”
“Just a little bit, don’t give me the whole thing ? OK. LOL”… the caption concluded.
50 and the Vivica have verbally sparred numerous times since their own short-lived relationship and breakup in 2004, largely because of similar disclosures from Fox to the media. Hence the comparison.
In a new interview, Common came clean on dealing with the aftermath of splitting from Badu and the immediate impact it had on his life.
“Some of the hardest work I’ve done on myself has been after breakups,” says the star. In the early ’00s he famously dated neo-soul singer Erykah Badu, whom he teamed with on hit singles “The Light” and “Love of My Life.” It was a relationship he’ll never forget. “With Erykah Badu, that was my first love where you’re just open and floating,” he says of the singer he reportedly dated for two years prior to their split in 2002. “When we split, I was 27 or 28. I was in a haze, just going through the motions. It was hard to eat.” (People)
