Ja Rule has reiterated that he once beat 50 Cent in a physical fight and said their long-running beef is completely one-sided.
Appearing on Piers Morgan Uncensored on Tuesday (March 5), the former Murder Inc. rapper was repeatedly pressed by the host about his storied history with 50.
Morgan asked Ja who would win in a fight between him and the G-Unit mogul, to which he replied: “That’s happened already too, Piers. You gotta do your research.”
Asked by Morgan who won, the Queens, New York native answered: “I did, Piers.”
Ja Rule then went on to call their feud “one-sided,” adding: “You never see me say anything about him. I just mind my business, do my business… I don’t do the back and forth.”
Ja was also asked by Morgan if he had a message that he wanted to send to 50, with the rapper responding that he had “no message” but wished him well.

Ja Rule has previously claimed to have beaten up 50 Cent with a bat at the height of their feud in 2000.
Writing in his 2014 book Unruly: The Highs and Lows of Being a Man, he claimed: “50 tried to swing on me, but I dipped, then I hit him with the baby Louisville Slugger. Bam! I dropped the bat. I pulled the shirt over his head. I started catching him left, right, uppercut.”
Ja also claimed he beat up 50 with a crutch he got from someone in his camp with a broken foot at the time.
“I hit him with the crutch,” he continued. “We proceeded to whip his ass. I was putting in my work. 50 was crunched in the corner. I slammed the big Tannoy speaker down on him.”
He later elaborated on the incident during an interview with Hot 97, saying: “The talk got heated because I got mad and I started screaming at him and telling him he was a bitch, this that and the third. And so he swings at me.
“He caught me a little bit, but I dipped it. And then hit him with the bat. Boom! So, now we start tussling. My n-ggas is there. He got a few n-ggas with him there. Me and my n-ggas proceed to whoop his ass while his n-ggas did nothing. They sat back and watched the whole shit.”
The incident was also corroborated by Chris Gotti, co-founder of Murder Inc. Records, who said in 2016: “We see him in Atlanta…Ja and 50 walk off, talking. Rule got that big voice. You hear him: ‘I don’t know you. Why are you making these records?’
“50 snuffed him…You wanna hear the real story? Ja took the snuff. Takes him. Has his shirt over his head. Hitting him right back. Gets out of his shirt and he starts running…Gets away. That’s what happened that day.”
50 Cent has never responded to the claims that Ja beat him up and has not yet replied to his rival’s interview with Piers Morgan.
