The shade just keeps coming.
This past weekend, Michael Rainey Jr. lit up Instagram Live with a blunt, no-sympathy-needed stance toward his BMF co-star Lil Meech. When asked if he felt bad for Meech amid the ongoing drama with 50 Cent, Rainey didn’t hesitate:
“Do I feel bad for Lil Meech? I don’t feel bad for no grown man on this planet. I’m a grown man. Why the f### I gotta feel bad for another grown man?”
And he didn’t stop there. Speaking directly to Meech, Rainey added:
“You a grown man too, n####. What you asking for my sympathy for? You’ll be alright.”
This isn’t the first time Rainey’s thrown shade.
Just last month, when a TikTok user suggested Rainey should have mentored Lil Meech, he fired back:
“Tried to, he wanted to be big bro so bad.”
A Tale of Two Careers
Rainey, a seasoned actor who made his debut at age 10 in an Italian film, rose to fame under 50 Cent’s umbrella, starring in Power and later Power Book II: Ghost, earning his stripes over a decade-long career.
In contrast, Lil Meech—still new to the entertainment world—made his acting debut portraying his own father, Detroit kingpin Demetrius “Big Meech” Flenory, in BMF, another Starz series helmed by 50 Cent.
Tension Behind the Scenes
This tension between Rainey and Meech comes at a time when the future of BMF is uncertain. Rumors swirled after 50 Cent publicly clashed with Big Meech, sparked by Meech being seen with longtime Fif rival Rick Ross.
Why It Matters:
In an era where public feuds shape the culture, Rainey’s sharp words highlight deeper industry dynamics—mentorship, loyalty, and staying power. And in this case, Rainey is making it clear: he’s not here to hold anyone’s hand.
