Refusing to let beefs die, he also sends a missile at former record executive Jimmy Henchman, who was convicted of drug trafficking last year and sentenced to life, rapping, "On the phone I heard Yayo smacked the s--t out of a kid/Now Jimmy got life, go smack him again."  (Photo: Rick Diamond/Getty Images for BET)
"Don't Worry Bout It" featuring Yo Gotti - 50 connects with Memphis emcee Yo Gotti to tell nosy people to mind their own.
