50 Cent Weighs In on Finesse2Tymes’ Rift With His Mother: “Just Call Her”
OPINION: This article may contain commentary which reflects the author's opinion.
Hip-hop mogul 50 Cent has stepped into the tense family dispute between Memphis rapper Finesse2Tymes and his mother, offering a mix of humor and hard-nosed advice as their rift plays out online.
A Family Rift in the Spotlight
The drama erupted publicly on May 14, when 50 Cent posted a video of Finesse’s mother, Pluria Alexander, alleging that her son had ignored her calls, cut off financial help, and left her on the brink of eviction. In the clip, Alexander claimed she was homeless and without support.
Rather than his usual barbed insults, 50 addressed Finesse directly in the caption:
“Hey Finesse, you look just like your momma, man. Just call her… Stay off the phone, Ma. Who showed you how to make a video anyway? @1finesse2tymes please don’t say nothing crazy.”
Finesse, 31, avoided naming his mother or 50 Cent in his reply. Hours later, he posted a cryptic Instagram Story: “Keep ya eyes open and ya mouth shut” alongside a self-portrait.
Background to the Dispute
The public spat comes just days after Finesse dropped a freestyle comparing himself to Eminem while hinting at fractured family relationships. Around the same time, Alexander launched a $6,000 GoFundMe for moving expenses — which she said marked the third time her son had left her homeless.
Alexander also claimed the estrangement has taken a toll on her mental health, citing anxiety, depression, and what she described as “narcissistic abuse.”
Social Media Reactions and Hip-Hop’s Family Feuds
The story has split public opinion. Supporters urged reconciliation, pointing to the importance of family ties despite fame and fortune. Others criticized Alexander for airing grievances online, questioning whether such disputes belong in the public arena.
For 50 Cent — whose career has been defined by high-profile feuds and blunt commentary — the moment offered an unusual blend of comic timing and pragmatic guidance. But the exchange also reflects a recurring theme in hip-hop: the volatile intersection of family loyalty, sudden wealth, and public scrutiny.
A Familiar Pattern in the Rap World
This dispute joins a long list of publicized rap family conflicts, where personal and financial tensions often spill into the open. With emotional stakes high and the internet amplifying every twist, the feud between Finesse2Tymes and his mother is unlikely to fade from the conversation anytime soon.
If history is any guide, the next chapter could be just a post — or a track — away.
