50 Cent initially took a playful jab at Jay on his track “How To Rob” in 1999 and Jay responded with a diss towards 50 live at Summer Jam later that year. Jay even spoke with 50 backstage saying he liked How To Rob, there was no beef and this was just two rappers competing with each other. Jay-Z then reused that diss and officially put it on wax in his track “It’s Hot”. Once this happened, 50 clapped right back with “Be A Gentleman” and we have yet to hear from Jay-Z.
Initially, Jay-Z acknowledged 50 and was competing with him by taking a shot back at him and even continued it by officially putting it on wax. But after 50 dropped “Be A Gentleman” Jay has been silent ever since. To me, this is a white flag and think it’s safe to say Jay listened to what he had to say and didn’t want to compete with him anymore. Although there’s people that claim Jay “won” with his one line dissing 50, he was the one that clapped back and then put it on wax. 50 responding with an incredible diss track and Jay going silent isn’t a coincidence.
