Following A$AP Rocky’s acquittal in his shooting assault trial, 50 Cent has playfully reminded legal affairs reporter, Meghann Cuniff, of a bet she seemingly agreed to regarding his verdict.
“I got ASAP beaten this case I’ll bet 500,000 on it, that boy ASAP Tellie was just trying to get some money,” 50 captioned a now-deleted Instagram post about Rocky’s trial. “Fool said I was scared for my life so I went back to the scene and picked up these shells. Officer told him hey if you want to get some money go to the hospital. Who want the bet!”
Following Rocky’s acquittal, 50 Cent shared a screenshot of the original post showing a comment from Cuniff that reads, “I’ll take that bet.” In the caption, he added, “@MeghannCuniff I’m a need my money by Monday.”

50 Cent has been following Rocky’s case very closely, frequently posting the latest updates on his Instagram. “Not guilty,” he wrote alongside a picture of Rocky when the news broke earlier this week.
“I told [ninja emoji]s I would bet 500,000 K he gonna beat it when ASAP Tellie started getting tired of telling 5 days straight. … Now stay sucker free!” he wrote.
Cuniff, who made a name for herself covering the trial of Tory Lanez, was likely joking when she agreed to the bet. Lanez also chimed in on the “bet” with a comment from behind bars. “From Tory : GOOF Bi**H [laughing emoji].”

Cuniff should have known better than to even joke about potentially owing 50 Cent some money. The rapper has famously pressed people (and embarrassed them) regarding giving him monies owed on social media.
Last year, Fif called out Young Buck with a screenshot of an AllHipHop headline that read, “50 Cent Wins: Young Buck to Pay Off Massive Debt, Ending Long-Running Dispute.” The TV mogul reacted to the news with the caption: “I don’t know why they make me go through this part, but I’m a need that money by Monday.”
Reportedly, Buck’s $250,000 debt to 50 was settled after going through the bankruptcy process. Buck’s bankruptcy included selling off some of his more expensive assets, including jewelry, luxury cars, and his music catalog.
