50 Cent’s lawyer is responding to reports after his client was seen on video hurling a microphone at a fan during his concert last night in Los Angeles.
In an exclusive statement to Page Six, the rapper’s lawyer said, “Let’s be very clear, as I told LAPD this afternoon, my client Curtis would never intentionally strike anyone with a microphone,” his attorney Scott Leemon shared.” “Anyone saying something different doesn’t have all the facts and is misinformed,” the lawyer added.
As we previously reported, 50 is now a suspect in a criminal battery investigation after the incident. The woman that was hit by the mic reportedly filed a police report Wednesday night and claims 50 cent looked her right in her face before throwing the mic at her.

Other than the drama that took place last night at the show, 50 Cent shocked his fans once he brought out Nas on stage ;last night during the show. Before leaving the stage Nas gave 50 his flowers for being one of the GOATS for the culture. “When this man dropped, the whole rap game changed,” he told the crowd. “Queens in the building, bruh. Shout out to Tony Yayo and Uncle Murda – my brothers. I love you man.”
During a recent interview with XXL 50 also showed Nas love and spoke about what it was like touring with him early in his career. “Nas, when I first interacted with him, he was like, ‘Yo, who’s that?’” Fif remembered. “Cause the ‘How to Rob’ record got his attention. He’s like, ‘Yo, that’s like when I first came out. That energy is like raw.’
“And he just wanted to see who I was. Just wanted me to be around and shit like that. Then, he let me come on tour with him and he didn’t have to do that.” He added: “He was ahead of us. What he had, and I was looking at it going, ‘You gotta be careful’ because he was smarter than the music he was releasing.

“He was smarter than things he was saying on the records because what he said on the records matched how things felt in the environment not who he was actually [in his head]. We’d be on the tour bus, and he’d be reading books and stuff.”
Despite all the good that happened during the show last night, unfortunately its being overshadowed by this tragic event that took place. #Socialites how do you think this will play out for 50?
