Rapper 50 Cent has gotten caught up in more Twitter drama. Recently he tweeted an explicit joke.

Twitter post:
“If you a man and your over 25 and you don’t eat pu**y just kill your self damn it. The world will be a better place. LOL”

Since posting this joke to Twitter in what 50 describes as a joke, he has been experiencing major backlash from gay rights and other human rights supporters.

On Friday, October 1, the rapper explained via Twitter that he never meant to make an “anti-gay statement.”

Twitter post:
“The other night I mad a joke about a blow job. My male followers enjoyed it. So I then went on to joke about women receiving the same….Some how they turned a simple joke about oral sex into a anti-gay statment I have nothing against people who choose and alternative life…Style in fact iv publicly stated my mom loved women. It funny how people think negative statements are news worthy but positive statements are not worthy of coverage.”

This cyber joke was meant to be adult humor, but really came in bad timing at best. The joke came shortly after a Rutgers University college student, Tyler Clementi, commited suicide when two of his classmates allegedly taped him in secret during a gay sexual encounter and posted the video online.
