Jazzma Kendrick has accused Rick Ross of physical abuse, sharing photos of facial injuries on social media and describing what she says was the moment she decided to leave their relationship.
Kendrick, who has been in an on-and-off relationship with the Florida rapper since early 2025, posted the images to her Instagram Story early Sunday morning. She characterized one photo showing a bruised and swollen lip as evidence of the day Ross allegedly “busted” her lip.
The posts did not identify a specific date or location for the alleged incident.
Responding to a follower who complimented her appearance, Kendrick wrote, “He saw a punching bag.”
She also shared an emotional message aimed at women experiencing similar situations, arguing that domestic violence can escalate if someone does not leave.
“I don’t know a lot of things, but I do know that a man that puts his hands on me, is a man that never loved me and never will,” Kendrick wrote.
Kendrick urged women to prioritize their safety and leave after an initial incident of violence. She also wrote that “if a man hits you one time, he will do it again.”
The allegations quickly drew a response from 50 Cent, who has a long-running public feud with Ross.
“This punk put his hands on baby girl, he stressed that album didn’t sell,” 50 Cent wrote Sunday. “I’d laugh at him, but domestic violence is not a joke.”
50 Cent’s reaction comes after years of public exchanges between the two rappers, including recent disputes involving Ross’ canceled tour dates and 50 Cent’s business dealings in Shreveport, Louisiana.
Ross, whose legal name is William Leonard Roberts II, has not publicly responded to Kendrick’s accusations based on the supplied information.
Kendrick previously announced a split from Ross in September 2025, but the two later appeared to reconcile. They were also seen together publicly as recently as July 2026.
For now, Kendrick’s claims remain allegations, and her social media posts do not establish when or where the alleged incident occurred. Ross has not yet provided a public response to the accusations.
