“It seems like I’m doing some extremely outrageous things, but I haven’t,” 50 Cent tells PEOPLE of calling out Combs’ alleged actions over the years
50 Cent is defending using his voice to call out Sean “Diddy” Combs over the years.
In an exclusive conversation with PEOPLE, the “21 Questions” rapper, 49, opens up about Combs, 54, and his alleged behaviors before he was charged with sex trafficking, racketeering and transportation to engage in prostitution on Sept. 17, a day after being arrested at a Manhattan hotel. (Combs has pleaded not guilty to the charges.)
Speaking about how he would poke fun at Combs’ life during concerts and on social media before the star’s recent legal troubles, 50 Cent says, “Look, it seems like I’m doing some extremely outrageous things, but I haven’t. It’s really me just saying what I’ve been saying for 10 years.”
He adds, “Now it’s becoming more full-facing in the news with the Puffy stuff, but away from that, I’m like, ‘Yo, it’s just my perspective because I stayed away from that stuff the entire time, because this is not my style.’ ”
