The end of "Ebro in the Morning" has sparked another online skirmish, with 50 Cent claiming he got the show canceled. The rapper reposted a clip of Hot 97 host Ebro Darden criticizing him, adding a caption stating he "put a word in" to have the program removed from the air. This has ignited debate online about whether his claim is a serious boast or just his signature trolling.
There has been no confirmation from the radio station, its parent company, or any official source that 50 Cent was involved in the decision. All industry reporting so far has pointed only to unspecified internal changes at the station as the reason for the show's conclusion. Both Ebro Darden and his co-host Peter Rosenberg have confirmed the show's end on social media without giving a specific cause.
