An Australian graffiti artist who calls himself the "number one 50 Cent stan account" has dedicated numerous mural paintings of his favourite rapper into portraits of, well, basically everyone except himself. Suffice to say, 50 has caught wind of the work — and he's not pleased.

The Melbourne-based artist — who goes by @lushsux on Instagram — has spent the better part of quarantine transforming 50 Cent's unmistakable visage into massive wall portraits of other public figures including Taylor Swift, Mike Pence, Tekashi 6ix9ine, Post Malone, Donald Trump and more.

After discovering the account, 50 officially declared beef with lush, wondering publicly what he's done to attract this sort of attention, and responding to his art by asking, "wtf is wrong with this guy?"

Even 50's arch nemesis, Fyre Fest's biggest goof, Ja Rule, has got in on the beef, allegedly messaging the painter to tell him that he's his new favourite artist.

See the rapper's reactions to the portraits below.
