A new trend has been sweeping TikTok: people prank calling their friends with the simple question, “Are you going to the Ja Rule concert?”

It all began with a viral video of a man dialing up his friend and casually asking, “You tryna go see Ja Rule?”

The friend’s stunned silence and disbelief sparked a wave of recreations, as TikTokers everywhere jumped on the prank, sharing their own versions with friends.

Of course, the internet buzz didn’t go unnoticed by those in the middle of the rivalry. Ja Rule’s longtime nemesis, 50 Cent, caught wind of the trend and took to Instagram with a hilarious reaction: “🤣🤣🤣 HA HA this s*** is really trending LOL, see what you get messing wit me. 🤔 You gonna be opening for the Ying Yang Twins 🧘🏾‍♂️”

Ja Rule fired back on X (formerly Twitter) with some confident words of his own, writing, “Y'all going to that Ja Rule concert??? Imagine trying to clown someone currently on tour making six figures a show. You n****s cooked... @50Cent takes notes like you been doing this what a REAL performer looks like... lmao.”

This back-and-forth only added fuel to the viral fire, showing that even decades-old rivalries can still spark laughter — and this feud isn’t ending anytime soon.
