  "account": "On Thursday, 50 Cent shared a clip of Shyne's appearance on Today With Jenna & Sheinelle, where the Brooklyn rapper discussed ending his decades-long feud with the former rival. Shyne recalled the dinner where 50 Cent and Michael Blackson were dining, with photographer Johnny Nunez directing him Shyne's way. Shyne explained that as an elder statesman in hip-hop, he has made it his mission to bring people together, and offered olive branches to those he had conflicts with.\n\nFollowing Shyne's interview, 50 reposted the clip on Instagram and expressed admiration for the former Belizean opposition leader's growth. He wrote, \"I’m not gonna front Shyne impresses me. World leader. He’s shown nothing but growth.\" Shyne then sent Billboard an exclusive statement in response to 50's post, praising their joint appearance as the \"epitome of Hip Hop at 53!\" He expressed gratitude for being a part of the evolution of the culture. 50 Cent and Shyne had previously sparred lyrically through diss records and prank calls in the early 2000s, and their recent reconciliation appears to have put their long-running feud to rest.",
