50 Cent to first baby mama
‘I own your life rights’
Published July 17, 2025 6:23 PM PDT
50 Cent’s publishing company is suing his baby mama for telling stories about him online … claiming she signed over her life rights years ago.
G-Unit Books is suing Shaniqua Tompkins … 50’s ex with whom he shares 28-year-old son Marquise Jackson.
G-Unit claims Shaniqua “irrevocably and exclusively” sold the rights of her life to the company … adding she agreed “she would not publicly disclose, exploit, or otherwise commercialize any aspect of her life story or related rights” way back in 2007.
Fast forward to 2023 … and G-Unit claims Shaniqua dropped a YouTube video titled “Other Side of the Coin.” The description of the video claims to tell “the untold truth of how she helped to build the G-Unit legacy and how Curtis ‘50-Cent’ Jackson wouldn’t be who he is today without her.”
And then, just last month, G-Unit claims she took to Instagram to capitalize on speculation around the identity of the witnesses in the Diddy trial to grow her own brand when she wrote “Fun fact: I ain’t never sell no [cat emoji].”
They say this brought her attention … and, she not only started to discuss Diddy’s trial but also told more stories from her past with 50 Cent.
G-Unit is suing her for breach of contract and asks the court to prevent her from posting more social media videos. They’re also asking for at least $1 million at trial.
We’ve reached out to Shaniqua … so far, no word back.
