50 Cent is showing no mercy towards Irv Gotti after his old nemesis reportedly suffered a second stroke.
According to AllHipHop, Gotti, who is 54, has suffered another stroke after battling health problems in recent times, including a stroke last year.
While many have expressed sympathy for the Murder Inc. founder, 50 saw no reason to change his tune and, in typical fashion, savagely trolled Gotti over the news.
In an Instagram post on Tuesday (February 4), the TV and movie mogul posted a screenshot of a headline about Gotti suffering a stroke and added: “Damn I wanted him to see my new shows yo!
The post that 50 reshared claimed that Gotti was “on life support” with “friends and family saying their goodbyes,” but this is unconfirmed.
Gotti and his team have yet to publicly comment on the reports about his health.

When Irv Gotti (real name Irving Lorenzo Jr.) suffered a stroke last August, 50 Cent was similarly unsympathetic.
Referencing his classic song “Wanksta,” which is widely believed to have been aimed at Ja Rule, Fif captioned an image of Gotti walking with a cane: “Damn homie, in high school you was the man homie, WTF happened to you?”
He continued taunting his longtime rival by adding: “I want Irv to get well, [raised eyebrow emoji] so he can have to watch my next wave [wave emoji] LOL.”
A representative said at the time that Gotti’s health issues were a result of his battle with diabetes: “Irv has been struggling with diabetes for years, which caused him to have a minor stroke over six months ago. He has since changed his diet to eating more healthy. He’s been successful in making a full recovery.”
Debunking rumors about the severity of his health scare, the rep added: “Irv is not in a rehab facility. He is at home with his family, enjoying life.”
During an appearance on Drink Champs in 2023, Gotti himself acknowledged that he was struggling to get his diabetes under control and was being forced to make drastic changes to his diet.
50 Cent has also recently mocked Gotti over Nelly‘s relationship with his former Murder Inc. signee and alleged ex, Ashanti.
In a since-deleted Instagram post last summer, the “In Da Club” rapper shared a screenshot of a post which suggested that Gotti was angry after Ashanti and Nelly — who secretly married in 2023 after rekindling their romance following a 10-year break — announced that they were expecting a child together.
“LOL I HAD TO SHARE THIS LMAO,” he wrote in the caption.
