50 Cent’s publishing firm, G-Unit, is suing his ex-girlfriend and the mom of his son, Shaniqua Tompkins, for speaking about him on-line.
They are saying she gave up the rights to inform her life story, particularly something involving 50 Cent, again in 2007. Within the lawsuit, G-Unit says Shaniqua signed a authorized deal that gave them full management over her life story. A part of that deal mentioned she couldn’t share private particulars, earn cash off her story, or speak publicly about her connection to 50 Cent.
In 2023, she posted a YouTube video known as “Different Facet of the Coin.” In it, she claimed she performed an enormous half in constructing 50 Cent’s profession and the G-Unit model. She even mentioned he wouldn’t be who he’s right this moment with out her assist.
G-Unit believes this clearly breaks the settlement she signed years in the past. They’re now asking the court docket to step in and cease her from making extra public claims, and presumably to make her pay damages. That is simply the newest challenge in a protracted and messy historical past between 50 Cent and Shaniqua. They’ve had a rocky relationship over time, typically arguing in public and on-line, particularly in relation to their son, Marquise Jackson, who’s now 28.
If the court docket agrees that Shaniqua broke the contract, she may very well be in authorized hassle. This case reveals how private drama can get much more difficult when authorized rights and public tales are concerned, particularly when celebrities are a part of the combo.
