50 Cent is one of hip-hop's most notorious internet trolls, and the Get Rich Or Die Tryin'  rapper has recently set his sights on Gabrielle Union. With "Empire" and "Power" sharing certain thematic similarities, it's no surprise that 50 took no prisoners when tearing down the competition. In a heated IG exchange, 50 fired a couple of shots at "Empire," implying that it was basically irrelevant in light of "Power's" success. 

Gabrielle Union took umbrage with 50's myopic mindset, and fired back by killing him with kindness. 50 didn't seemed moved, opting to settle things out of respect for Dwayne Wade. In true 50 fashion, the pettiness emerged in full, hilarious effect. What team do you stand on? "Empire," or "Power?"
