Ed Lover isn’t really feeling 50 Cent’s strong opinions surrounding the Diddy controversy, and he’s letting it be known on the latest episode of his C’Mon Son! podcast.
LISTEN NOW: C’Mon Son — Diddy Do It?
Expressing that 50 Cent has taken his trolling too far, during Friday’s episode titled “Diddy Do It?” the Hip Hop veteran said, “as much as I love 50, I think 50 is stepping over the line now. I really do.” Noting that 50’s endless string of social media jokes at the mogul’s expense are simply uncalled for.
Also admitting that “Funny is funny,” and the he too had recently joked at Diddy expense during his Three Random Facts segment of The Ed Lover Experience, Ed noted he mentioned the raid, but the punchline was actually directed at Diddy’s former valet, Fonzworth Bentley. He does believe that the G-Unit head honcho has been overdoing it of late.
“He’s kicking the s*** out this n**** while he’s down,” Lover said. Going on to list off a few speculations and rumors being mentioned.
Lover also offered up his theories about the situation as well, sharing that his overall take was in line with Uncle Luke’s opinion, that he introduced during an Instagram Live stream last month. Suggesting that Diddy’s troubles were the result of a retaliation from liquor company Diageo, who severed ties with Diddy last year after he sued them for racial discrimination.
“I believe what I just saw Uncle Luke say earlier today, that this is a machine coming after this dude,” Lover said. “I think it’s Diageo. Diageo is f***ing powerful.”
During the rest of the episode, Ed also I discussed his thoughts on the Mayor of Baltimore and “the ignorant racists that are coming for him.” And as always, another "This week in Hip-Hop History.” To hear it all, listen to the entire episode above.
