50 Cent & Joe Budden Squash Beef Courtside at Knicks Game

New York, NY – Two of hip-hop’s most outspoken voices may have finally put their differences aside.

50 Cent and Joe Budden, who’ve traded shots online over the past few months, were spotted at the same NBA playoff game between the New York Knicks and Detroit Pistons — and it looks like the tension melted courtside.

Fans noticed the two New York rappers seated just rows apart at Madison Square Garden, with 50 next to Fat Joe and Budden directly behind them. The moment quickly went viral after the arena’s jumbotron caught them in the same frame.

Putting any speculation to rest, 50 took to Instagram to post the image and joke: “I ran into Joe at the game he said I don’t need Therapy No MORE!”

Another fan-captured photo showed the two sharing a hug — a surprising turnaround considering their recent beef.

The feud kicked off earlier this year when Budden criticized 50 for joking about Irv Gotti’s death. 50 clapped back by dragging up an old video clip of Budden making bizarre remarks about his pet, which sparked widespread backlash.

At one point, 50 even suggested Budden needed therapy and went as far as tagging PETA in his posts. Budden, meanwhile, hinted at legal action and referenced 50’s past controversies.

But after this unexpected courtside meet-up, it seems like the past is in the rearview — at least for now.

No word from Budden yet, but if the smiles and hugs are anything to go by, NYC’s resident instigators might just be cool again.
