Tony Buzbee shared a picture with 50 Cent after his former client fully recanted her sexual assault allegations against Jay-Z.

Tony Buzbee's legal battles with Jay-Z and Roc Nation have experienced dismissals in court on both sides. But the drama surrounding the lawyer's backing of a sexual assault lawsuit against Hov and Diddy continues. After the accuser recanted her allegations against Jay earlier this week, the attorney shared a picture with 50 Cent that has fans buzzing due to 50's dynamic with the Roc mogul.

Via Twitter, Buzbee shared a picture of him and Fif with Buzbee's wife Frances. It was at a Houston Children's Charity event, and he spoke on the G-Uit mogul's character and acumen.

"Good to see @50cent at the Houston Children’s Charity event," the lawyer wrote. "Frances and I really hanging with him. Entrepreneur, musician, and philanthropist. A very good man!!"

50 Cent's previous comments on this Jay-Z situation flipped from Internet trolling to condemnations of Buzbee and the accuser. So folks don't really know where he stands today, although this picture with Tony Buzbee certainly indicates amicability. Still, fans can only speculate regarding this.

Jay-Z's Accuser

The accuser in question now has new legal counsel amid her filing in federal court stating her allegations were false. However, the accuser's lawyer said she's a sexual assault victim, just not at the hands of Hov. He dropped her as a defendant in his lawsuit against Buzbee, which he's reportedly pursuing in New York. This is because Jay-Z's lawsuit against Tony Buzbee was dismissed in California, but this walk-back from the accuser could reportedly lead to fresh legal action and more developments in New York.

Elsewhere, Tony Buzbee's lawsuits against Roc Nation also experienced dismissals. Both sides accused the other of frivolous legal action, defamation, and more. Now, though, it's unclear if their legal fight will continue via appeals, additional filings in different jurisdictions, and more, or if they will just keep things here.

50 Cent's online trolling and statements on all this chaos may flip between jest and condemnation, but that's how he's always handled his Internet presence, for the most part. We'll see if he has anything to say himself about his run-in with Tony Buzbee and this scandal's development.
