50 Cent, who has been at odds with Diddy for decades, is putting the troubled Bad Boy mogul in the limelight in a new documentary by his production company. At least, that's the plan.

It's not clear if he's interested in it from a producer standpoint -- or it's a personal vendetta against a so-called nemesis.

The rapper of "In da Club" has also created a number of well-regarded true crime podcasts and films, such as "Hip Hop Homicides," in which Van Lathan, a former star of TMZ, investigates the passing of pop smoke, XXXTentacion, and King Von, among other too-short rap sensations.

Additionally, it served as the inspiration for the podcast "Surviving El Chapo: The Twins Who Brought Down A Drug Lord," which related the tale of the Chicago twins who rose to prominence as the country's largest drug traffickers before turning on the Mexican mafia.

Page Six now reports that a much closer target will be G-Unit's next target. According to sources, Fiddy is currently working on a TV documentary about competitor Diddy and the abuse claims made by Cassie, his longtime partner, and other people.

Diddy has vehemently refuted the allegations. We also noted that he recently resigned from his position as chair of his own media firm, Revolt.

Cassie, a former prodigy of the "I'll Be Missing You" rapper, filed a lawsuit against Diddy two weeks ago, alleging, among other things, that he forced her to have sex with male prostitutes while he watched and sexually assaulted her.

Diddy's lawyers reached a settlement in less than a day, although they openly acknowledged no misconduct.

50 Cent's tense relationship with Diddy stands out for its tenacity even amid his many ongoing feuds. Fiddy has harassed Diddy for utilizing Biggie Smalls' name to further his own career, cast doubt on Diddy's sexual orientation, and even implied that Diddy knows who shot Biggie but is too afraid to take retribution.

Regarding the documentary, a representative for Fiddy or G-Unit Film and Television is yet to confirm it.

If it does push through though, one can only hope for 50 Cent's sake that it won't land him in a legal trouble like "Hip Hop Homicides" did.

Legal action has been threatened against 50 Cent for his Hip Hop Homicides TV series, which looks at the startlingly high number of rap killings.

The WE television program, which is hosted by Van Lathan and executive produced by G-Unit mogul along with Mona Scott-Young, looks at the epidemic of violence in Hip Hop from a "big picture" perspective, exploring the roles that policing, crime, racism, and class played in these startling murders. Thursday, December 22, marked the release of the show's most recent installment, which delves into the shooting death of Chicago rapper FBG Duck.

On August 4, 2020, Duck was shot and died in his hometown while out shopping with two other individuals. FBG Duck, whose real name is Carlton Weekly, was shot in the neck, groin, and chest, according to Chicago's ABC 7. Northwestern Memorial Hospital declared him deceased. In October 2021, the men thought to be responsible for the murder were captured.

The suspects, Tacarlos Offerd, also known as Los, Christopher Thomas, also known as C Thang, Charles Liggins, also known as C Murda, Kenneth Roberson, also known as Kenny Mac, and Marcus Smart, also known as Muwop, were accused of murder in support of racketeering, as well as federal weapon crimes and assaults in support of racketeering.
