Rapper 50 Cent has posted some insensitive tweets about the tsunami and earthquake that devastated Japan over the weekend. 

The 'Baby By Me' star used social networking site Twitter on March 11 to make a few casual remarks about the tragic events and wrote:

"Wave will hit 8am them crazy white boys gonna try to go surfing."

"Look this is very serious people I had to evacuate all my hoe's from LA,Hawaii and Japan. I had to do it. Lol"

"Its all good Till b*tches see there christian louboutins floating down da street shit gone get crazy."

The distasteful messages are still on his news feed and he followed them up with an explanation of his shocking behaviour, which simply read:

"Some of my tweets are ignorant I do it for shock value. Hate it or love it. I'm cool either way 50cent"
