50 Cent has been relentless in his trolling of Diddy for the entirety of Sean Combs’ federal prostitution case. After Donald Trump revealed to reporters on Monday (Oct. 6) that Diddy’s team had asked him about a potential pardon, 50 looked to remind the president about the disparaging remarks Sean Combs had made about him in the past.
“Man you can’t get No pardon running ya mouth like that! LOL Get Out of here,” 50 captioned the post on Monday evening (Oct. 6).

The clip in 50’s post featured previous statements from Diddy criticizing Trump following the 2020 election, with the incarcerated mogul saying, “White men like Trump need to be banished … the No. 1 priority is to get Trump out of office.”
Trump spoke to Newsmax in August about how he used to be cool with Diddy, but then the embattled Bad Boy founder became critical of him when Trump entered the political world and ran for president. “I was very friendly with him, I got along with him great and he seemed like a nice guy. I didn’t know him well. But when I ran for office, he was very hostile,” the president said.
Diddy’s trial concluded with his sentencing on Friday (Oct. 3), which saw Combs sentenced to 50 months in prison for violating federal prostitution laws.
While taking questions from reporters at the Oval Office on Monday, Donald Trump confirmed that Combs and his team reached out to ask about a potential pardon. “A lot of people have asked me for pardons. I call him Puff Daddy,” Trump said, referencing Diddy’s nickname. “He has asked me for a pardon.”
Back in May, Trump said he’d “look at the facts” for a potential pardon for Diddy, but also told Newsmax that because of their relationship souring that it would make it “more difficult to do.”
50 Cent trolled Diddy when the 50-month sentencing came down Friday, posting a sketch of Diddy getting teary-eyed in court, which he’s since deleted. “Hey to whoever was booking Diddy for speaking engagements,” he wrote on Instagram. “I heard he won’t be able to make it, I’m available!”
