50 Cent is in some hot water after making fun of a disabled teen at the airport.

It appears 50 Cent in some hot water at the moment after he made fun of a disabled employee at Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport this past weekend. In a now deleted IG post, 50 was at CVG airport to promote his Effen vodka when he ran into 19-year-old Andrew Farrell, and started to harass him for the way he looked. Fif can be heard saying in the Youtube clip (below),

"What kind of shit you think he took before he got to work today? He high as a motherfucker right here in the airport," 50 says. "Pupils dilated and everything, looking like... the new generation is fucking crazy."

Well it turns out the kid has dealt with social anxiety his whole life, and in an interview with Local 12 Cincinnati, Andrew's stepfather, Ken, called out 50 Cent for his actions that day. "It hurts to watch that, it's painful. You come up and you start talking to a kid you know nothing about. That's not fair. That's a slap in the face," he said. "Here's a guy who people look up to, and he's going to act like that?"

While many students and fans have bashed the G-Unit leader, including one of Andrew’s fellow classmates (see below), Andrew’s parents have also asked for a public apology, which has yet to come, but I'm sure will.

I think this is just a coincidental case that Fif would’ve honestly avoided if he had known what we now know. But nonetheless it happened, and an apology should be necessary.

Check out the since-deleted IG clip below and let us know what you think in the comments.
