“These guys are not rappers. These gangsters, the guys that I ended up having beef with,” 50 Cent said. “Not Ja, Preme [Kenneth ‘Supreme’ McGriff]. Not Game, Jimmy [Henchman]. You see what I’m saying? So, it’s like in these cases, I kinda identify why he was so angry. With his kid, with the little boy. His boy got slapped in the face. [Just] like that. But it wasn’t Yay. Yay didn’t never slap that boy.”
In 2007, Tony Yayo was accused of slapping Jimmy Henchman’s 14-year-old son.
Yayo was later arrested on charges of harassment and endangering the welfare of a child, however the charges were dismissed as part of a plea deal.
G-Unit’s Lowell “Lodi Mack” Fletcher admitted that he was the one who actually slapped Henchman’s son and was sentenced to nine months in prison.
