Ja Rule Blames 50 Cent for New York Knicks Playoff Loss to Detroit Pistons at MSG

Ja Rule claimed he knew the New York Knicks would lose Game 2 against the Detroit Pistons after seeing 50 Cent sitting courtside at Madison Square Garden.

On Monday night, Ja Rule hopped on X to tweet that the Knicks didn’t lose to the Pistons because of anything the team did, but simply because his longtime rival attended the game at MSG. The Knicks struggled on the glass and at the free-throw line, but Ja insisted on blaming 50 for the loss.

"Man I knew my Knicks was gonna lose as soon as I seen that black cat (rat) in the building….," Ja tweeted.

The ongoing beef between 50 Cent and Ja Rule was reignited earlier this month when Murder Inc. CEO Irv Gotti passed away following a stroke, and 50 had some not-so-kind words about him. Ja caught wind of the comments and proceeded to flame 50 claiming he would go nuclear on him.

"The Breakfast Club should be ashamed of themselves asking questions that perpetuate violence. This fool has been ready to go what he calls nuclear for 22 years. LOL," wrote 50 in response to Ja's comments on Instagram.

Ja continued to verbally attack 50 with a tweet that read, "From now on your name boo boo that's what they called you on the streets right lmfao. Boo boo the fool… [laughing face emoji] 50 cent is a street n****a from Brooklyn you boo boo from Queens… Mc gusto cb4 aaa n***a. You're right he told the Feds murder inc had him shot and they put us under federal indictment… [rat emoji]…@50cent Go ahead and lie tell these good people tell the paperwork fake so I can send this next shot… WE GOT RECEIPTS boo boo…"

50 Cent apparently managed to squash his beef with Joe Budden during the Knick game on Monday night as the rappers sat by one another and shared a hug. In an Instagram post showing the embrace, 50 let fans know everything was all good between himself and Budden.

"I ran into Joe at the game he said I don't need Therapy No MORE!" 50 captioned the post.
