CINCINNATI -
Curtis Jackson III, better known as rapper 50 Cent, posted a video to social media over the weekend, berating a worker at the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport.

The post has the teen’s family livid and demanding an apology from the rapper.

“This new generation is crazy. It’s crazy,” 50 Cent said in a selfie video. The rapper then turns the camera on an airport employee, pushing a cart through the airport terminal. “Look at him. What kind of [expletive] do you think he took before coming to work today? He high as a [expletive] right here in the airport. His pupils dilated and everything… ”

It turns out, the CVG janitor is a teenager with disabilities.

“It’s just sickening, very hard to watch,” said Kent Farrell, the father of Andrew Farrell, the 19-year-old man seen in the video.

Kent Farrrell said his son is not on drugs, but has a disability and social anxiety.

“To put this out there saying my son is on drugs or whatever, that is part of his social anxiety,” Kent Farrell said. “He’s not wanting to talk, he’s not wanting to communicate, he’s walking on and he’s doing his job.”

Andrew is a graduate of Conner High School. His parents said he was proud of getting the job at CVG without help from anyone.

“He’s very upset,” said Andrew’s mother, Amanda Kramer. “The more I thought about it, the more upset I got, the madder I got. This could hurt him for the future.”

“I think he needs to retract it and I would like for him to make a public apology,” Kramer said.

The video has since disappeared from the rapper’s Twitter page, but not before going viral.

The rapper was in Cincinnati for a liquor promotion. He has not responded to requests for a statement.

In response to 50 Cent berating a man w/ Autism, we will be boycotting @effenvodka and challenge others in Cincy to do the same !

At least five Cincinnati businesses, including Holy Grail, Jeff Ruby and MOTR Pub, have said on Twitter Tuesday that they would not purchase or sell the rapper's liquor.

Ewww. And that poor guy.

[jamich]

What an asshole.
If he had no problem calling him out for whatever reason, then he should not have a problem admitting he was wrong and apologizing to the guy.

[anna7602]

Ick.

[iammalcolmx]

YIKES!!! What has happened? He was super nice to the airline employees when I met him.

[josieposy]

Good grief. Between this and Walmart lady I'm kinda over today.

How hard is it to not be an asshole? Not very hard.

Step 1: Think asshole thing.
Step 2: Contemplate whether or not someone is being hurt or if you're just pissed off.
Step 3: Keep asshole thing to yourself.

I mean, I know liquor is legal and some drugs aren't, but still, this is pretty hypocritical.

And also horrifying in all of the other ways that have already been pointed out.

[jojoandleo]

I don't even know why he would do this in the first place. Even if the guy was high, who gives a fuck? Why would 50 cent care? He absolutely owes an apology to that whole family. That poor kid.

[tictac]

I feel like I already knew he was a douche for some reason...like there was some other story about him being a colossal asshole a few years ago?

Regardless, I really hope that since he had zero qualms to so publicly shame this kid, that he'll be equally ready to step up and publicly apologize. Profusely.

[sfy]

You guys must not know how he treats his own son. He's a terrible person.

Is that what I'm thinking of?

[stealthmom]

Yeah, I totally always thought this about him. Though he's been out of the news for so long I can't remember why.

WTF?

Ugh. This is one reason people with disabilities and mental illnesses struggle with being out in public. Poor kid.

And what the fuck is with people taking pictures and video of strangers and then putting it on the internet to mock, just for kicks? And why do people watch this shit and think it's amusing?

This.  Like, I just don't understand the inclination to pull out your phone and record a video/take a picture at every.single.turn. 

You can't do anything these days, because people are always waiting to take a video and post it or just even share it  with their friends.

I was just thinking the other day, I'd hate to be the child of a celebrity/politician in high school or college, because I would be so paranoid that someone is out there waiting to see me slip, so they can sell it, get some money, meanwhile my life is ruined.

This is what I found: www.vh1.com/news/232683/50-cent-marquise-jackson-shaniqua-tompkins-drama-timeline/

DAMN!  Apparently he has sent him some pretty hateful texts and even a possible death threat!?!  And wasn't at his graduation?  And has pretty much abandoned him, but claims his son should be grateful because, money.  Dude sucks.

He's actually been in the news a lot lately. He's filed for bankruptcy but it hasn't seemed to slow down his flashy lifestyle.

He posted a sex tape of someone, and she sued him which led him to filing for bankruptcy. 


Shaq got in trouble for making fun of a person with disability also, he stepped up and apologized but still, he should have known better to do it in the first place.

I'm so angry about this seriously. 1. How very dare you post a video of a disabled teenager on the Internet and throw shade? You can get fucked directly up, bro.

2. You made money with a song about getting drunk and taking ecstasy at a club. But go on and call younger kids a bunch of stoners. You are a worthless garbage person.

You said it so great that I almost imagined us collectively throttling Fitty's throat while reciting #2. What a worthless piece of garbage.

[iammalcolmx]

What ever happened with him saying he was broke but posting Instagram pictures of himself with stacks of money? Did the judge do anything?

I am constantly thinking asshole things. It's just a part of who I am. I know, however, when to keep my mouth shut. More people need to understand Step 3.

[thejackpot]

He has issued an apology, per my evening TMZ reading. Don't judge me folks.

(oh and to be clear he was wrong, wrong, wrong!)

[stephm0188]

He apologized but he's still a jerk.
