<a href="/profile/50cent" class="text-word" target="blank”>50 Cent might be known for throwing shade and cracking jokes about <a href="/profile/diddy" class="text-word" target="blank”>Diddy, but in 2024, he’s been tangled in a bit of a legal mess himself. Back in March, the rapper faced serious accusations of rape and physical abuse from his ex-girlfriend, Daphne Joy Narvaez. In true 50 Cent fashion, he didn’t just sit back; he filed a defamation lawsuit against her, vehemently denying the claims. Fast forward through a summer of legal wrangling, and it seems he’s decided to back off—according to TMZ, 50 Cent is voluntarily dismissing the defamation case against his ex.
Isn’t that a twist? Just a few months ago, 50 Cent was all about defending his honor. He made a statement calling out Narvaez for what he claimed was an intentional smear against his reputation, insisting that her allegations could jeopardize not only his career but also the welfare of their son. He characterized her accusations as a “deliberate attempt to ruin his personal and professional image.” Isn’t it wild how quickly things can change? Back then, he even hinted that her claims were a sneaky ploy to undermine him in their ongoing custody battle. Talk about drama!

50 Cent may have plenty of jokes for Diddy, but the rapper has had legal issues of his own in 2024. He was accused of rape and physical abuse by his ex-girlfriend, Daphne Joy Narvaez, back in March. 50 Cent responded by filing a defamation lawsuit against Narvaez, in addition to denying all claims outright. The defamation suit has lasted throughout the summer, but the rapper has decided to pull the plug on the whole thing. According to TMZ, 50 Cent is dropping the defamation suit against his ex.
This is a complete turnaround from the 50 Cent who adamantly denied Narvaez’s accusations in March. The rapper issued a statement criticizing his ex for besmirching his reputation in a way that could impact his livelihood, and consequently, their shared child. 50 described Narvaez’s accusations as a “purposeful attempt to destroy his personal and business reputation.” He also felt as though his ex was trying to ruin the custody battle the two were embroiled in at the time. 50 voiced a concern over being unable to see his “minor son” due to Narvaez’s “false” claims.

The decision was confirmed on September 10. TMZ obtained legal documents in which 50 Cent asked the defamation suit to be dismissed “without prejudice.” A judge has reportedly yet to sign off on the request, but there’s no outstanding legal reason why there would be a problem. Neither 50 nor Daphne Joy Narvaez have commented on this latest decision. In fact, both parties have gone out of their way to avoid the topic in recent months. Daphne Joy Narvaez deleted the original Instagram post accusing 50 Cent of abuse back in July. 50 seemingly returned the favor by refusing to pursue legal action.
The defamation lawsuit is settled. The custody battle between 50 Cent and Daphne Joy Narvaez, however, is not. 50 is seeking sole custody of their son, Sire, due to claims made about Narvaez in a lawsuit against Diddy. The ongoing lawsuit, filed by Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones, claimed that Daphne Joy Narvaez spent time as a sex worker for Diddy. 50 wants sole custody as a means of keeping his son protected. Given what has come to light about Diddy, the concern is understandable.
