Rapper 50 Cent has jokingly come for Beyoncé’s country music career by sharing a country version of one of his songs.

The rapper—born Curtis Jackson III—took to X (formerly Twitter) to share a video that is a country rendition of his hit track “In da Club.” 

The clip had a mock-up of a single album cover, which sees 50 Cent with coiffed hair and wearing a suit and referred to as Conway Fitty.

The majority of the lyrics included are from his popular song, such as “You can find me in the club, bottle full of bub” and “My flow.

My show brought me the dough” but the one new addition are the words “tight fittin’ jeans” at the end of the video.

“My country album on the way Beyoncé ain’t got s*** on me. LOL [laugh out loud],” the rapper joked in the caption. 

At the time of writing his post had been viewed 934,000 times.

Newsweek has emailed spokespeople for 50 Cent and Beyoncé for comment on Monday.

The original video comes from the Instagram account @there_i_ruined_it, where the bio reads, “I lovingly destroy your favorite songs.”

According to the website, musician Dustin Ballard started creating parody versions of popular songs as a personal project during the pandemic.

“With the simple goal of ruining as many beloved songs as possible before it’s banned from the Internet, There I Ruined It has left a wake of confusion and disgust among those with musical taste, inexplicably earning millions of followers along the way,” it reads.

The post from 50 Cent refers to the fact that on March 29, Beyoncé released her country album Cowboy Carter. It achieved the biggest opening week of 2024 in the U.S. It debuted with 407,000 equivalent album units, a mix of pure album sales and on-demand streams, according to Luminate, a data analysis company.

This isn’t the first time that 50 Cent has shared a cover of one of his songs. He previously shared a version of his song “Window Shopper,” which had been altered to sound like a track from the 1950s, from the TikTok account @ai.slaps.

In the video 50 Cent posted, a voice can be heard crooning some of the song’s lyrics. These include “Mad at me, I think I know why” and “In the dealership, tryin’ to get a test drive.”

“Yo this AI s*** is crazy LOL,” he wrote. At the time of writing, it had been viewed 2.6 million times.

On Wednesday, 50 Cent visited Capitol Hill to advocate for Black entrepreneurs and push for more representation in the alcohol industry. 50 Cent, who owns the liquor company Sire Spirits, was joined by civil rights attorney Ben Crump.

During his visit, the musician took a photo of himself posing with the outspoken GOP Representative Lauren Boebert. He then uploaded the photo to X, where it quickly went viral.

People slammed 50 Cent, calling him a “disappointment” and Boebert an “embarrassment.” Following the backlash, he took to X to try and clear the air.

“Wait, wait, guys i took pictures with everyone and all you seem to care about is Lauren [shrug emoji] what did she do in a dark theater that hasn’t been done, my God ! Hey I don’t have chlamydia by the way. LOL,” he said, uploading a photo of himself outside the Capitol Building.

His post refers to reports in September 2023 saying Boebert and a date had been kicked out of a production of Beetlejuice: The Musical at a theater in Denver, Colorado, following complaints of inappropriate behavior.
