50 Cent Clashes with Keith Sweat Over Virtual Appearance, Blames Diddy’s NYC Key for the Snub

In just a couple of weeks, 50 Cent‘s Humor & Harmony Weekend will light up Shreveport, Louisiana, promising a star-studded lineup that includes the legendary Keith Sweat. However, a storm is brewing as Sweat recently suggested he might attend the event virtually via Zoom, a move that has 50 Cent fuming.

Taking to Instagram, 50 Cent didn’t hold back, accusing Sweat of “tripping” for not planning to show up in person. The rapper believes Sweat’s hesitation is due to an important event in New York City on August 3, where Sweat is set to receive the Entertainer’s Key to NYC. The key, previously held by Diddy, was revoked after footage of him assaulting Cassie surfaced online.

“This [ninja] @keithsweat is tripping,” 50 Cent captioned his post. “He getting Diddy’s Key to the city Aug’s 3 They blocking off streets in Harlem for him. Now if he don’t show up in Shreveport, we ain’t f*cking with him no more. @bransoncognac @lecheminduroi.”

Sweat didn’t take long to respond, referencing 50 Cent’s 1999 track “How to Rob,” where he jokes about robbing the R&B singer. “Hey Fif I gotta respond to you I’m definitely not coming to Shreveport now,” Sweat wrote. “I just remember you said this about me back in the day. I’ll see y’all in NYC Aug 3rd when I get the key to the city. You need to be there with me and everything is squashed.”

But 50 Cent wasn’t backing down. “Oh no, I was tripping when I wrote that, yo a** better be in Shreveport [ninja],” he fired back. “We need that grown and sexy sh*t ! @keithsweat stop playing get your a** on da jet man.”
