Alex Thomas Claims Dr. Dre Paid Him BIG MONEY to Diss Ja Rule on 50 Cent’s Album — And Fans Are Losing It
According to Alex Thomas, one of hip-hop’s wildest behind-the-scenes moves just got exposed.
He says Dr. Dre personally paid him a hefty bag to fire shots at Ja Rule — not on his own project, but inside a 50 Cent album.
If true, this changes how people look at one of rap’s most infamous beefs…
Was it really organic — or a strategic chess move by Dre from the shadows?

Comedian Alex Thomas was closely associated with Dr. Dre‘s Aftermath Records uprising at the top of the century … which led to him landing the role of the sassy gay man who dissed Ja Rule at the end of 50 Cent‘s “Back Down” track!!!
The song was a crucial moment in 50 and G-Unit winning their rap battle against Ja and Murder Inc. en route to 50’s “Get Rich Or Die Tryin'” debut, nearly being certified Diamond!!!
Alex tells “The Art of Dialogue” that after Dre and DJ Pooh hand-picked him to star in the 2001 film “The Wash” — alongside Snoop Dogg and Eminem — Dre immediately pulled him aside and tipped him off that some guy named 50 Cent was the next rapper to blow up.

The end result is one of Hip Hop’s biggest blockbuster albums … Alex says it only took him 30 minutes to earn $10K!!!
To sweeten the pot, Dre also bought him a pool table as a housewarming gift … and Alex was sinisterly left uncredited to fuel the gay rumors directed at Ja.
Alex says it was just business — not personal clowning on Ja — and hopes to catch 18 holes of golf with him down the line.
The comedian trend on rap albums continued after 50’s. Mike Epps cameoed on Ice Cube‘s “Laugh Now, Cry Later,” Katt Williams starred on Lil Kim‘s “The Naked Truth,” and Cedric The Entertainer was on Bun B‘s “Trill OG.”
