Summary
- 50 Cent claims Jay-Z still owes him a favor from 2003.
- The dispute stems from a Reebok commercial featuring both artists.
- Jay-Z reportedly became angry when 50 Cent insisted on wearing his own G-Unit sneaker.

In a recent Instagram post, rapper 50 Cent has resurfaced a long-standing claim that Jay-Z owes him a favor. The controversy originates from a 2003 Reebok commercial they both starred in while recording the "Reebok (Interlude)" track. According to 50 Cent, he was adamant about wearing his own G-Unit G6 sneaker for the commercial. This decision reportedly angered Jay-Z, to the point where Jay's then-business partner, John Meneilly, feared he would be fired. The G-Unit G6 sneaker, in its original red, white, and blue colorway from 2003, recently saw a re-release that sold out within two hours.
