By the mid-00’s, 50 Cent had become the hottest rapper in the game. Yet, he beefed with over half including Fat Joe.
Before the confliction escalated, Joe called DJ Kay Slay on New York Hot 97 in a plea to not participate in the mischief due to his street life outside of rap.

“This is not WWF,” Fat Joe said over the phone.
Fat Joe unceremoniously became apart of the pack after his contribution’s to Ja Rule’s, Fif’s arch rival, song “New York, New York.”
Also, Joe called out their hometown New York City for allowing 50 to disrespect other NYC rappers such as Jay-Z, Nas, and Lil Kim. He insisted that 50 was so disrespectful that he would soon diss Eminem, and The Game, whom were all affiliates at the time. #TBT
