50 Cent Shades Kanye West and Jokes Rapper Can Do His Wedding 'If He Is Not Banned at the Time'

Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson joked that Kanye West could perform at his hypothetical wedding 'if he is not banned at the time', according to an OK! Magazine report published on 12 October 2026. During an appearance on Today, the rapper also named Jay-Z as a potential performer while discussing his appearance at NBA star Tyrese Haliburton's wedding.

The exchange centred on a hypothetical wedding, not a confirmed event. The condition attached to West's potential appearance was the most pointed part of 50 Cent's answer.

Why 50 Cent's Kanye West Wedding Joke Stood Out

50 Cent was talking about his appearance at Haliburton's wedding when the conversation turned to his own marriage prospects.

'Jay-Z's gonna do my wedding,' he said, before adding, 'And Kanye too, I'll have him if he is not banned at the time.'

The reference to a possible ban gave the joke its edge. The report interpreted the remark as referring to West's history of public controversies and their effect on his ability to perform at certain events. However, 50 Cent did not identify a specific ban in the quoted exchange.

The report does not indicate that either West or Jay-Z has agreed to perform. The wedding remains hypothetical, and no booking is reported.

How Kanye West and 50 Cent Reached This Point

The joke carries added context because West and 50 Cent have a history of musical competition.

In September 2007, West's Graduation and 50 Cent's Curtis were released on the same day, setting up a high-profile sales contest. According to OK! Magazine, West outsold 50 Cent during the opening week.

The simultaneous releases became a prominent moment in the artists' commercial rivalry, with opening-week sales providing a direct comparison between the two albums.

Their latest exchange, however, does not establish that an old feud has reignited. The wedding remark was made during a light-hearted conversation, and the report does not describe a confrontation between the pair.

The reference to a possible ban was the sharpest part of the joke, but the available account does not establish precisely what 50 Cent meant by it.

Why Jay-Z Was Also Named as a Wedding Performer

West was not the only rap heavyweight on 50 Cent's imaginary guest list. Jay-Z was also named as a potential performer, despite the competitive exchanges the two artists have had over the years.

The report links their rivalry to 50 Cent's 1999 song 'How to Rob'. It also says 50 Cent recently questioned the significance of anniversary celebrations for Jay-Z's debut album, Reasonable Doubt.

50 Cent named Jay-Z as a potential performer, but the report does not establish whether the remark reflected a serious intention or was simply part of the joke.

There is no confirmation of a reconciliation or a planned musical collaboration. The comments alone do not establish a change in the relationship between the two rappers.

What 50 Cent Said About Getting Married Himself

The conversation also touched on 50 Cent's own attitude towards marriage. Despite imagining a line-up featuring two of hip-hop's biggest names, he indicated that he was not particularly enthusiastic about tying the knot.

'Listen, the most successful people that I know, when you ask them where they took their biggest losses, it's in one column: married and divorced,' he said.

He followed that observation with a blunt assessment. 'Not looking forward to it,' he added.

The conversation began with 50 Cent's appearance at Haliburton and Jade Jones's wedding. He had helped Haliburton look for an entertainer before offering to perform himself.

West's potential appearance at 50 Cent's wedding remains hypothetical. The report does not identify a specific ban, and 50 Cent's remarks should not be taken as confirmation that West is barred from any particular event.
