The January murder of Mazaradi Fox — a Queens rapper who counted 50 Cent as a lifelong friend — was 16 years in the making, cops said Tuesday as they announced an arrest in the case.
The suspect was retaliating against Fox for a murder Fox allegedly participated in back in 1998, officials said.
The arrested man, Jamal Scott, 35, is the '98 victim's older brother, according to police sources.
Scott, of Jamaica, Queens, was charged with second-degree murder and four counts of attempted murder and felony assault early Tuesday for blasting a Nissan SUV full of people, including Fox, 42, whose real name was Jamal Green, and three others.
Fox, who once rolled with 50 Cent's G-Unit crew, stumbled out of the ride and died in a driveway at Farmers Blvd. and 134th Ave. Three other people in the SUV were wounded by the hail of bullets.

Cops said the gunman in the brazen 4:10 p.m. shooting Jan. 3 was wearing all black and a ski mask and fled in a dark Hyundai sedan.
Scott's brother Curtis was 21 when he was shot dead by Fox and another man outside Jamaica's Baisley Park Houses on July 7, 1998.
The gunfire erupted after Fox got into an argument with several men and ordered an associate to open fire, cops said.
